text: Nostrano is exactly what we needed A small cozy dimly lit spot that is lively with conversation Nostrano has a carefully thoughtout menu highlighting the best of the seasons ingredients without overwhelming one with options The farm egg salad was almost a meal on it is own The delicata squash cannelloni was light and lovely with a crunchy roasted brussel sprout leaves The cocktails I tried Piper and Nehi Orange were sweet but not too heavy very similar style to the Velvet Hour in Chicago The affogato is probably the best dessert I have had in Madison in a long time Make a reservation it is sure to be very popular soon
