text: Nostrano is our favorite restaurant in Madison. The sformato and quail were among the best things we have eaten in town. Brodetto and rabbit boudin blanc have also been good, but the smoked lentils beneath the quail should not be missed. For cocktails, we trusted our server's recommendation and had three glorious Fistfuls of Dollars. Impeccable service. Very quiet on a Tuesday night, with a beautiful view of the capitol.
