25 Years at the Table

In June 2001, Johnny Delmonico's opened its doors — designed to be a destination for Madison's finest evenings out. Twenty-five years later, we're still after the same thing: a great steak, a proper drink, and a night worth remembering.

Since then, we've watched this city fill our tables with first dates, anniversaries, birthdays, and everyday nights that became traditions. Serving as Madison's home for fine dining for a quarter century isn't something we take lightly — it's something we've tried to earn, one dinner at a time.

This menu gathers some of our most well-loved dishes from over the years — a small nod to everything that got us here.

The first twenty-five years have been extraordinary. Thank you for spending them with us. Here's to the next chapter.

Maker's Mark Private Select

Our Maker's Mark Private Select is a limited edition bourbon, tailor-made in Kentucky by the teams at Johnny Delmonico's and Cento; it was barreled, finished, and bottled exclusively for sale at our restaurants. Expect rich flavors of oak, spicy vanilla, caramel, coffee, and toasted nut, with a lengthy finish. There's nothing quite like the sublime experience of sipping a cask-strength bourbon - which offers a fuller, richer drinking experience, and complex robust aromas and flavors that are hard to find in lower proof standard bottlings. 110 proof wheated bourbon, 240 bottles made. Enjoy our Maker's Mark Private Select on the rocks, neat, or in your favorite cocktail.
