I recently had the pleasure of dining at Swiss and Madison in Mankato, and I must say, it was a delightful experience overall.Let's start with the highlight of the evening - the scallops. While they were decent, they didn't quite reach the level of excellence I had hoped for. However, the flavors were pleasant, and they were cooked to a satisfactory standard.Now, onto the drinks. The espresso martini and margaritas were absolute winners. Each sip was a symphony of flavors, expertly crafted and perfectly balanced. These cocktails truly elevated the dining experience and left me craving more.Portion sizes at Swiss and Madison are generous, ensuring you leave feeling satisfied. The appetizers, in particular, were a standout. From the first bite, it was evident that attention to detail and quality ingredients were paramount in their preparation. While the scallops may not have been the star of the show, the overall ambiance, tasty appetizers, and delightful drinks make Swiss and Madison a worthy destination for a night out. I look forward to returning to explore more of their menu offerings.

Every time I go to Swiss & Madison I am left a little confused and desiring more. They try so hard to be upscale and modern and always just fall short in my opinion. They have updated the menu since the last time I was there which was a good thing. They added multiple burger options which I think is one of their best menu items. This time I had the bacon jam burger and it was good. The charred Brussels sprouts were also very good. We tried their crostini appetizer and it was okay, but the visual presentation was majorly lacking. They just don't look appealing when set in front of you. It also really bothered me that all the sauces are served in plastic cups, just feels lacking for a nicer restaurant. They have a nice cocktail menu, however the consistency is way off. I ordered the dolce vida skinny and thoroughly enjoyed it. I ordered a second round and it was like a completely different drink. It even visually looked different; first round was clear and a small portion and the second was green and overflowing with ice. My husband got a filthy martini and it was watery like it was shaken but sat in the ice before being poured. Service was okay. The times I have been there they don't have a host/hostess so it always feels a little awkward waiting to be seated. They seemed to be understaffed on a Saturday evening, only one waitress running around, trying her best. They also didn't appear to have a dedicated bartender which would probably explain the lack of consistency in the drinks. The bathrooms could also use a major overhaul. They appeared not to have been renovated when the rest of the restaurant was. They are dingy and dirty. I always want to like Swiss & Madison but there are so many improvements to be made go from okay to great.

I haven't been here since it changed the name and concept. It was good, kind of a confusing vibe. It seemed to be older "cool moms?" Regardless, the food was good and I well priced. The buffalo cheese curds made me feel like I was eating the softest boneless wings ever. I really liked them. The wedge salad was decent. I was glad I got the tomato syrup on the side, it was way too sweet for me. It is probably worth a return visit to explore the rest of the menu.

Great place for a nice dinner date. Great drink menu, my favorite Martini in town is the Filthy Martini. The prime rib special (served on Thursday and Friday nights) was fantastic. Great ambiance and very friendly waitstaff. When the bill comes, they bring you a guest book where you can write a personal review, as well as read other reviews in the book. A nice place with a great menu and great drink menu.

Would you like a square potato?I give this place 3 stars for a rating, but 5 for effort. The staff were really friendly, eventhough we stayed a half hour after close they never made us feel rushed to get out. The food was great. I had the filet and it was so tender and cooked to perfection. I must say that the presentation was amazing (as you can see from the pictures). My girlfriend's food was however not to par. She takes her steak well done (no pink) this seemed hard for the staff to figure out as it had to be sent back 2 times. TWO times, even then it was still pink. That to me is unacceptable. Well done seems simple enough.Something that really stands out to me about this place is the potato pave. A.K.A a SQUARE POTATO this was an interesting side that I will always remember where I got it from. Way to put yourself on the map. We also had a side of which ad also really good it had a hint of maple which I will definitely try at home sometime. But I'm just gonna leave it at the square potatoes

Great restaurant in so many ways. Owned by a family dedicated to carrying on fathers legacy. Staff is attentive, responsive and incredibly hard working. Food is delicious and presented in a beautiful and unique way. I bring clients in from different parts of the country and their feedback is always positive. Try it out. You won't regret it.

My friends and I tried this new restaurant on a weekday evening. Loved the updated interior, clean and crisp.Unfortunately,we had to wait for service several times during our visit. My friend actually got up three times to request service. They forgot we were even there, tho they apologized several times.We all had salads, the Spring salad was delicious, the Autumn salad actually was missing ingredients that were listed on the menu. The broccoli appetizer was great, as was the Tiramisu.Will not be going back.

By far our favorite restaurant in Mankato. The food was delicious, service was exceptional and it was a cute atmosphere. We got the buffalo flatbread, Nashville hot chicken sandwich and the walleye sandwich. Truly such good food, we were planning when to come back while we were still there! Prices were reasonable as well! There were plenty of different seating styles and areas here and a cute bar if you wanted to just stop in for a drink!
