Lombardino's Restaurant - Madison

Fantastic traditional Italian cuisine in Madison. Expertly crafted dishes.

Lombardino's is the epitome of what I look for in a restaurant: it is genuine, offers beautifully crafted dishes made with fresh ingredients, boasts an intimate atmosphere with a good patron-to-wait staff ratio, and is unforgettable. The waitstaff were attentive without being intrusive. The salads are exceptional, going beyond just greens. I highly recommend the roasted beet salad or the Lombardino Ensalada. As a vegetarian with gluten sensitivities, I opted for an eggplant dish on top of polenta, a meal that left a lasting impression. The dish was a work of art: the crispy eggplant was filled with caramelized onions, and the creamy polenta was topped with fresh pesto. My friend chose spaghetti and was blown away by the perfectly prepared dish. Our guests also raved about their meals. The desserts were equally delicious. After dining at Lombardino's three times, we have consistently experienced excellent food and service. I can't wait for the next opportunity to visit Lombardino's in Madison.

This restaurant serves traditional Italian dishes presented in a modern and thoughtful way. It's my top choice for a romantic date night.

This is our day for night. it is consistently some of the best food they ever eat. lamb chops last night and the broccolini were so delicious! love the gorgonzola, fig and salami appetizer. If you're looking for a hip and trendy hot spot, that's not it. lombardinos is completely old school Italian decor with wall paintings, red vinyl cabins and a cozy interieur. the wood fired grill pumps the most tasteful evening meal with locally produced food. not your typical Italian! we also like the price class, from pizzas to steaks and a little of everything in between.

Last night had a fabulous meal for restaurant week with other friends. I could have insalata lombardino every night of the week; the shaved fennel and vinaiigrette takes an salat to raised. I also had the grilled portobello mushroom over creamy polnta; really the best polnta I ever had. last but not least the panna cotta, that was heavenly. really the workers were amazing, the numbers they served. lombardia I can't wait to come back again; again and again!
