Amazing customer service, people were extremely nice and friendly. Food was good and had excellent choices for vegan and gluten free, allergy friendly menu items. Not super expensive either, which is a huge plus so I can come here more regularly.
Only leaving 4 stars because of the water having salt/minerals* and they had to remake my friend’s vegan tacos. Also would add that my mocktail was mostly ice… They were really good about providing allergen free laminated menus with notes.
*Suggestion to restaurant, I know other people have commented about the water. It probably would have been a 5 stars if not for water quality. It just was a gritty tap like taste.
(FYI water snobs in Madison, RED has the best free water served in restaurants)
A vibrant spot perfect for impressing out-of-town friends, it offers amazing cocktails, a stellar menu, and irresistible desserts that everyone loves.

Happy our experience at Merchant was as wonderful as usual. We had friends from out of town visiting and wanted to show off Madison's food scene. Cocktails were top notch as was the wine I chose with my meal. I ordered the squash risotto which was excellent, even better than expected. Our table of 8 enjoyed the cheese curds and everyone loved their entrees, including the whitefish, chorizo verde and fried chicken sandwich. The desserts were delicious and our gluten and dairy intolerant guest was thrilled with the chocolate brownie dessert, as was the rest of the table. A great success all around.
Experience a charming spot with a delightful ambiance and a diverse menu that impresses even the most discerning diners.

I ate here last night and the food was absolutely delicious. The staff was super friendly and did an amazing job accommodating my gluten intolerance and recommending gluten-free menu options

We were there early but everyone was happy to accommodate us right away. Our server was very attentive throughout our visit and did a nice job explaining the theme of the restaurant right when she came over to our table. The atmosphere of the courtyard is unique and private. Quieter than I thought it would be right off of E Washington. All of the food we ordered was outstanding and the gluten free parsnip alternative for the risotto dish seemed to have just as much care to it as the regular dish would have received. Overall great experience.
This spot offers a welcoming vibe with creative dishes that cater to diverse diets, all while embracing a no-tip, fair wage policy.

For a couple with one vegetarian and one gluten free person, this place is an absolute dream. We rarely actually get to share plates without making some pretty huge modifications, but we had so many options here. The prices look a little high at first glance for small plates, but really 3 plates (plus some rice and naan) did the trick for both of us. The food is phenomenal and the cocktails are unique and delicious!
Dive into a unique whiskey experience with exceptional cocktails and an impressive selection to take home!

If you are allergic to Gluten, THIS is the place to get THE BEST whiskey ever. And it happens to be gluten free because it's from sorghum. Neat is how we do it at home most of the time, but the cocktails were on point delicious!
Reallllllllly wish we could still get Queen Jennie shipped to us! Gluten allergies are super tricky with alcohol and I have relied on getting my yearly stash shipped for 10 years now. I realize they may not have control of that (we live in Hawaii now and I think our state no longer allows it) but wanted to mention it. That said the drinks were Fantastic and we were happy to be able to pick up some bottles to take home.
Fisrt time back in a long time. Went for the gluten free food. Success. Busy as alway and have to wait to sit. Most of the time. Food great. Sevice very good. Limited parking.
