The Statehouse - Madison

Discovered the Boathouse recently and this has become my favorite summertime place to eat. Enjoy your meals with the awesome views of the lake. Sunset views are spectacular. Located in the Edgewater Hotel, you must visit The Boathouse for excellentfood, service, and summer vibes. They have indoor and patio dining available. Strongly recommend patio dining to enjoy thebeautiful views. I absolutely love the food, ambience, and friendly service of this place. Went in on a Sunday evening andchose to sit outside. Our server promptly arrived and took are apps and drinks order. We started with the calamari, trufflefries and pretzel bites. The apps were good and I loved the calamari. It was perfect. Need to try the cheese curds during mynext visit. We also the Mahi Mahi fish tacos, Power Bowl, Chicken Salad croissant and Boathouse burger . The food was reallygood. Check out The Boathouse today!! Highly Recommend.

Cheese curds appreterizer was so delicious ???? worth it! They actually had ???? cherry coke which I am a big fan of! Being right next to the lake was so beautiful and peaceful! It wasn't a busy day. The weather was nice. The decor of the inside of therestaurant was nice and clean. Even the bathrooms were well kept. Our waitress and all the staff was friendly. 5 stars! We willbe back!

Best hotel in Madison. The staff there is incredible throughout all the different areas of the hotel. We stayed for a family event and it was a perfect place for us. The views of the lake and location downtown can't be beat!

We did a quick family trip/spa day to Madison and chose to stay at the Edgewater. We’ve stayed there a number of times. As usual, it was a great experience. Great lakeside room, good service, and good food and drink. And definitely a great location along Lake Mendota, and close to downtown and UW campus.

I am a big fan of the hotel for someone who lives in walking distance. The week days is a great vibe of locals, especially summer months. Live bands, Boathouse is open, and nice mix of families. I'd suggest for college visits to the university, is in walking distance.
