Review by Elnora Smitham

September 18, 2024

Bistro 525 is a charming spot nestled in the DoubleTree by Hilton, perfect for a delightful meal or cocktail! The atmosphere is trendy yet casual, making it ideal for families and groups alike.

I indulged in their bistro burger and cheese curds, both of which were fantastic! 🍔 The service was exceptional, even on a busy Badger GameDay.

While the prices can be a bit steep for some items (looking at you, $24 martini!), the delicious Strawberry Cucumber Mojito made it worthwhile. I’ll definitely return for more! 🌟
