Italian food near Madison?
The wife has to work late Valentine's day, so I'm going to pickup something and surprise her when she gets off. Any suggestions?

I have only been once but Biaggis was pretty good.
Re: Italian food near Madison?
Biaggis is good. Rossini is great- especially the cheesecake with home made caramel.

Biaggi's is good. Amerigo's on Old Canton is good.
There is a place called Fratesi's on Lake Harbor. I typed a whole rant, but back spaced. I'll summarize that I have been twice and neither was a good experience. I would stay away from the caesar salad for sure. The dressing was so strong that it was every bit what I imagine licking the belly of a catfish would be like.....

Re: Italian food near Madison?
Rossini, Biaggis, both good.
I used to eat at Fratesis from time to time and always had great food. But haven;t been in a year or so. Trying to stay away from the processed foods. Italian is terrible for how I eat. But I do love it!

+1 on Amerigos
I forgot about Fratesis. Haven't been in a while, but was great the last time I was there.

1. Cook it yourself for a surprise
2. I agree about Amerigo's. This tends to be more "fancier" of the choices listed.
3. I like Fratesi's, service can be hit or miss at times but the sauces are simple red/white sauces.

I have eaten at Fratesi's a few times. They have a baked eggplant special that is not on the menu but the staff knows what you're talking about. It is fantastic.

Re: Italian food near Madison?
None of those other places listed are any good. So if you're planning on having a little action after dinner you should pick up Amerigo.

Re: Italian food near Madison?
Fratesis is good and I can't remember the name but its by bonefish but I remember it being good maybe it's called pies? Whatever the name they give you a ton of food.
