    Had a great visit here at the Madison, we had a reservation and it was during a time where it was very busy. I believe it was also happy hour so the drinks were two for one which was super cool because they brought you two drinks at a time. the food service was a little slow, but but it was worth the wait. We tried the chicken wings for appetizer, eggrolls, and deviled eggs. For dinner, We had the lobster pasta as well as the lamb chops. The pasta was very good, but the lamb chops stole the show. They were so soft and very well seasoned. I would absolutely order again and it was a lot of food so we had food left over as well. They also had a DJ as well. I'm not sure if that is all the time or just for that occasion but it was super cool. The music was a vibe. I can't wait to try this place again.

    The ambiance is definitely a vibe, the music was on point from the minute we entered and free we left, I enjoyed the infamous lemon drop and the salmon egg rolls. The eggs were very tasty and plentiful for an appetizer. I have enjoyed the friend green tomatoes in the past and would definitely recommend them as a must try. I will be back

    My home girl and I were restaurant hopping, and decided to check this place out. We came when they were closing, which was great. Not too many people in there. The location is right off the interstate. The decor is very nice and has lots of photo worthy spots. Everyone in the establishment was great. Our waiter was very nice and gave us a run down of the restaurant and the plans they may have moving forward. Their cocktails were great. They had brunch all day, which we weren't very impressed with. Definitely looking forward to trying them again on another night for lunch/dinner. The dinner menu looked amazing.

    Really cute vibe in here. I came here on a Friday night and we decided to come last minute. We were able to get seating easily. I loved that they have a happy hour until 9 two for 1. Some of their cocktails were a little sweet for my liking but the waiter was able to help me pick one based on what I like to drink. Inside during dinner they have a DJ. You can get up and dance while you wait too. The service was very prompt and attentive. I got the jerk chicken pasta and it was the right amount of spice to enjoy the food but not over powering. I would come back here to try something else. They also have a Lounge on the other side of their restaurant.

    We were invited to the soft opening of Madison at Noho and it was a fantastic experience! My girl and I loved their signature drinks--On Howard and the Madison 2.0 -- both unique and perfectly crafted. For food, we tried the stuffed oysters, which were amazing! They were generously stuffed with crab meat and packed with flavor--highly recommend. The atmosphere had a great vibe, making it the perfect spot for a night out or to escape rush hour traffic. Knowing the talented team behind Table 22 recently took over this location is exciting, as their expertise clearly shines through! We're already planning our next visit to check out their hookah and more menu items. This is a great addition to the area and definitely worth a visit!

    I really enjoyed the vibe here and the music. Every part of my order was 10/10. Including our waiter Derek. The tacos were sweet with the right amount of heat and very juicy with my veggies, the fried green tomatoes were fried perfectly with a nice sauce drizzle that gave me salty and savory, and my drink was sweet. I had an all around versatile palette for the night. I appreciate that this aura and energy was more grown, sexy, and relaxed compared to Table 22. I'm very proud of my experience here. When I finished my drink, I was good vibes all around and couldn't stop smiling. First time I think I had love put into my drink and not just the food.

    Good atmosphere Nice drinks had the Madison 2.0 Nice music selections Service was okay we didn't have a waitress we had to stop one and thankfully she just took us on instead of going to find out who Didn't get her name but you the mvp boo ! The food was good the catfish could've been a lil more seasoned but everything else was great! Date attend June 21 2025

    Grabbed a late dinner from the Madison, walked in and was sat immediately. The server takes her time coming out but she was very nice. The food, SO DELICIOUS. The wings were cooked to perfection and you will need to ask for French fries they are not on the main menu! My sister had the salmon and I quote "the best salmon she has ever had" she would like that sauce recipe and my other sister had the crab cakes and grits. Overall, the food was amazing. Nice lounge vibe but the music is really loud. If it's turned down a smidge the experience would be perfect.

    Great ambiance and parking onsite available. Happy hour is from 4 pm to 7 pm. The wings were good, had a sweet flavor to them. The calamari was good, also had a sweet flavor and served with pineapple. The Caesar salad and Parmesan truffle fries are good sides that were pretty tasty. The service by staff was divine.

    Crab cakes

    Madison Noho is the third restaurant in this space in the last 3 years, but hopefully this one sticks! Reservations can be made online on Open Table so no need to call the restaurant and bother the host. The parking lot has all of like 10 spots but there is local street parking as well. Be careful tho, it's a pretty high traffic street. Now onto the food and service... Our waiter Nicholas was very kind and offered great service. He started out with what the restaurant was out of to lower our expectations. Our party ordered the snapper, lamb chops, salmon, jerk chicken pasta, crab cakes and calamari. Everything was a hit! The only thing I didn't care from was the calamari, but my boyfriend loved it. It had a mango pineapple glaze and I hate sweet and savory combos, personally. IDK if my boyfriend was asked the temperature he wanted his lambchops. We were running our mouths so much, we couldn't remember. They came out well done but the flavor and tenderness were so great that that wasn't even a concern. My snapper may have been the best snapper I've had in the city. It came with mashed potatoes as the side but I asked if I could have the brussels instead. The brussels were underseasoned, but that was the only food item I could say that about and it does take a lot to make brussels retain a flavor. The crab cakes were also top 3 crab cakes in the city, IMO. That is all crab baby! The drinks were what made me give the place a 4 instead of a 5. Nothing to write home about. The espresso martini didn't contain espresso and my sister ordered a white Russian and I think the bartender may not have known what that was so they basically gave her a super sweet old fashioned. When in doubt, Google it! All in all, I would absolutely recommend.

    Went on a Thursday night and had a great time. The food was on point. Had the $2 oysters and blackened snapper and it was point! The music was at a perfect level to hear and not have to shout to conversation. Definitely a spot to check out.

    Martha N.

    The vibe was really nice. Nice music playing and the paintings on the walls were breathtaking. The tables are pretty intimate and close together and the parking lot is smaller, so Uber or ride share would be best. The food was served in very large portions, definitely could be shareable. The drinks were AMAZING and beautiful. Can't wait to return

Plenty of signature drinks, a dozen different beers and even a few dishes are offered. They stir a nice whiskey sour. It's really what suits your fancy. Fear not. They have mocktails, too! 12/25

She was funny, helpful, and attentive. And they are on top of refilling your water so you will never go thirsty. I'm not much of a drinker, so I don't have much to say on that matter. The ambiance was nice. A lot of eclectic paintings on the walls. And loved the outfits of the servers. Very 20's speakeasy. There is a live jazz band that started performing at 7 pm. They were good but at some points it was a bit difficult to speak and listen to those at your table unless you got really close. My meal hit the spot. We started with a charcuterie board for the table. It had a lot of great options like dried apricots, actual honeycomb pieces, and my most favorite cheese, some Brie cheese. The only thing was there was only 4 pieces of bread, one for each of us, which wasn't enough but I guess it made sense not to fill us up too much. For my main meal I had the sweet potato salad which was very tasty and the sweet potato risotto, which a little spicy kick. The only thing I missed was the Brussels sprouts and potatoes but was told that was from the previous chef. But they serve you enough so you definitely will have left overs. Not a big fan of eating in the lounge areas, those are best just for drinks and maybe desserts. But it's definitely a great place to people watch. You will definitely have a meal and a show no matter what. Hopefully can schedule another time to bring my family because I know they would love it.

The hostess was pleasant when arriving and presented herself with exceptional sleek style. Someone brought me a palate cleanser drink which was rhubarb and lemongrass water. It was smooth and refreshing. The server guided me through the cocktail menu which was an exploration all its very own. I choose the cocktail called Opposite Day- Japanese whiskey, sweet Sauvignon Blanc, salted wine and roasted beets- twist on a whiskey sour but flipped! Oysters were light and fresh and the juice in the shell was precision clean. It really pops the flavors of the oyster. Yellowtail jalapeño handroll- it is designed to be eaten similar to a taco. The yellowtail was superbly fresh, the jalapeno was a mild touch to accompany the dish and didn't try to be the star. and the homemade soy sauce didn't over power the fish.

It's got that all-around fun, energetic atmosphere that makes it a solid choice for drinks. Not sure how it is during the week, but it would make for a fun date night spot to grab some cocktails. That said, I had a real hang-up the last time I went with my girlfriend around Christmas. They tried to hit us with a $10 cover just to get in, on top of $15-20 cocktails. I don't mind paying for a nice spot, but the cover felt absurd, especially since it wasn't even busy. The bouncer said we could make a reservation to avoid it, so I did...and then he made us stand outside forever before letting us in. At that point, we should've just left, but since my friend had never been, we stuck it out to try the themed Christmas cocktails. Once inside, there was a two-drink minimum per person, which is kind of crazy. It feels like they jip you either way...cover or no cover, minimum spend or not. While waiting outside (for no real reason, since it was empty), we chatted with a party of six who came straight from Ash (the sister restaurant upstairs). They'd just spent over $1,000 on their meal and were still getting charged a cover to enter Alter Ego. That's poor business, don't force extra fees to guarantee money when good music, drinks, and vibes should bring people in naturally and make them want to spend. There's plenty of places on Water Street with great (and I'd say better) cocktails where you're not forced into minimums or covers. The Christmas cocktail menu was disappointing too, poor selections and way too sugary. Love the potential here, but the strict policies really turned me off and made me want to go elsewhere next time.
