"This is an extraordinary eating experience for anyone who looks for nontraditional preparation of traditional foods, and the top standards of freshness and quality in ingredients, and at reasonable prices for the very best dishes. The Only problem with Madeline's is that such a marvelous array of choices makes it hard to decide. And that's a problem? We can always go back. And believe me, we will"
