    We had a great anniversary dinner. The food was excellent, as was the service. They gave us an extra small appetizer and a personalized dessert for our anniversary - nice touch!

    Went for our 25th anniversary last night and the food and wine were amazing and the services was good but I have never been SO COLD at a restaurant in my entire life. Couldn’t have been more than 60 degrees. Kinda put a damper on an otherwise fantastic night.

    We have stayed at the Old Edwards Inn many times over the years, and Madison’s has always been a favorite part of our stay. They never disappoint!
