Delaney's Steak Seafood Wine

This is a great steak house. Posting this after dropping $300+ for dinner with two friends.Food was excellent. Service was good. What was not was our leftovers. Delaneys has excellent hash browns and large portions. We were looking forward to our hash browns. Unfortunately our server didn't include these in either of our take out boxes. I would give it a pass but we called it out when he cleared our plates. Additionally, we told our server that we were there for a birthday celebration, and while he did say a 'happy birthday', there was no offer of any birthday treat. Not a big deal as we were all too full to eat a desert, but birthday treats have become commonplace these days and not making the offer is detracting from the dining experience.A less than stellar experience from an establishment that normally provides a five star dining event.

Arrived sort of late in the day and was able to be seated immediately the original table I was placed at was near the kitchen but the staff asked if I wanted some place more quiet and they moved me. The wait staff made the meal a lot better than I think the actual taste was. They were very attentive (sometimes a little too aggressive) but I was well taken care of. I arrived during restaurant week and it was a prefixed menu option and the wedge salad was very good and simple. The filet were cooked perfectly I felt had too much going on and took away from the quality of the meat. And the cream cheese dessert was a nice capper to a good meal. The steakhouse is exactly what you think. Lots of wood and dark.

Here on New Year's Eve 2024. Had awesome service at the bar with delicious drinks. And possibly the best New York strip of my life also with top notch service and sides!

Delaney's is one of few local steak restaurants on Madison's west side and is ALWAYS fantastic. The perfect place to go for really yummy food and an extremely cozy atmosphere. The crab cakes and seafood bisque are delicious, not fishy at all and you can tell the ingredients are quality. The filet is always cooked to perfection and melts in your mouth. The service is extremely quick and it's clear they have it down to a science. We never had an empty water or sat with our plates. Thank you Delaney's for always being great!

It was okay, I felt overall it was a pretty average steak and seafood house. I ordered chicken Oscar and my significant other got the steak (the steak was good.) The chicken was nothing special and I could easily make better chicken at home. It came with two pieces of crab on top and the rice was super bland. I also ordered a wedge salad and they forgot the bleu cheese and the French was very watery. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu and again it was okay, not a lot of flavor and wouldn't order it again. Wisconsin has lots of competition when it comes to steak houses and sadly this restaurant I would not go back to.

Glad I found it! It will be our new go-to place for football weekends, now that the traditional Smokey's closed! Absolutely loved everything we tried and everything about it !!

Visited Delaney's last night for the first time as a guest of a friend. Great service, nice old fashioned with rail bourbon, great Caesar salad, although you have to ask for anchovies. Unfortunately, the $57 ribeye steak was 1/3 gristle. In hindsight I should have sent it back. I've never had a steak so bad, including many ribeyes that were "choice" that I purchased at the grocery store.

I went for restaurant week and made the mistake of not making a reservation, so that's lesson number one... if I come back. Delaneys is set right across the street from schwoeglors bowling alley and has an old supper club steak house vibe. Prices are a little on the high end for what they offer but the portions are really good. No cocktail list, so just place your favorite bar drink. I got a whiskey old fashioned press and it was fine. Nothing spectacular. - Caesar salad: great. Large portion good dressing and they come around with fresh cracked pepper - Filet with mushroom bacon sauce: steak was good, not great. Worth the price for restaurant week. The sauce was a little overwhelming but who can go wrong with bacon and mushrooms. The potato's were just one up from the instant potatoes you make from a box and the veggies were bland and just seemed to be steamed all together (carrots and cabbage) - hot fudge sundae: quite good. Comes in a Martini glass and the hot fudge wasn't hot but had the same type of decadence that you would expect. - service: this is probably what made me decrease to a 3 star place. The host was very quick and to the point and the server was the same. My friend said he couldn't eat pork and she offered no substitutions and charged him extra to remove and add a separate sauce. Then she dropped off the check and came back 5 minute later when we were still eating dessert to see if the bill was ready, when it wasn't she didn't come back for another 20 min after we flagged her down. Overall, just okay. If it's restaurant week again, I may go if I'm craving a steak but otherwise, you can pass and find another place in Madison

A west Madison mainstay for decades, Delaney's delivers consistently good steaks and other food. The bar is my preference - great atmosphere and good clientele. Also a good wine list / selection.The filet with béarnaise sauce is my go to. Hash browns are also great, although mine were a touch cold in the middle the last time I ate here. Also, be sure to get some button mushrooms for your steak!

had never been there and took advantage of Restaurant Week to try it and was very satisfied. I had the filet and my wife had the salmon. Good food, good value and service as well
