Food: Underwhelming taste with sky-high prices
Madeo Ristorante prides itself on its top dishes: Grilled Branzino, Spaghetti Bolognese, and Veal Ossobuco on Risotto; each promises a unique culinary experience. While these dishes gained commendations for their freshness and the menu's variety, the overall taste was cited as mediocre, lacking the necessary punch to justify its high valuation. Portions were a letdown, with customers reporting dissatisfaction with the minuscule sizes.
