🍝 Eating Through Madison: Osteria Papavero

📍 Restaurant: 【Osteria Papavero】 🌟 Rating: 2/5 ⭐️😐 Well, this was a surprise… I finally found an Italian restaurant in Madison that just didn’t hit the mark. 😞 Almost every dish we tried was either too salty or overly acidic — and honestly, nothing on the main menu made us excited to order more. Even the drinks were… interesting? 🍹🤨 We tried one of their signature cocktails, and let’s just say the flavor combination was… unique (and not necessarily in a good way). The atmosphere is cozy and the service was polite, but the food really fell short of our expectations — especially for a supposedly authentic osteria. Maybe we went on an off night, but I’m not in a rush to go back. Definitely not my favorite Italian experience in Madison — which is a shame, because I really wanted to like it! 🙃 If you’ve been, let me know what you thought! #Madison#MadisonEats #ItalianFood #FoodReview #NotRecommended #MadisonFoodie
