Osteria Papavero is a gem in Madison! 🍷 Sat at the bar and loved the cozy vibe. The bartender recommended a full-body Merlot that paired beautifully with our Cambogiano and Three Piggies sandwiches - both were fantastic!

Don’t skip the deep-fried flatbread served with the meal; it’s irresistible! For dessert, the Budino was creamy perfection. With a menu that changes regularly and friendly service, I can’t wait to return in the summer when they open up the garage door patio. Absolutely one of the best Italian spots around! 🍽️✨
