The Madison restaurant carousel revolves into 2025 with new opportunities to try a variety of cuisines across the area. Newly opened spots include a Korean barbecue-style spot on State Street across from a Japanese izakaya (a casual bar with hearty snacks). Mineral Point Road has a new cafe for Middle Eastern desserts. We have a fresh Detroit-style pizzeria on East Johnson, a new American place with a Norwegian name in Stoughton, and a Mexican restaurant now on Atwood.
The end of the year always brings a flurry of restaurant closings, too, as business owners shift priorities (and some cut their losses). Recent weeks have seen closing announcements from Taco Local on Williamson Street, Reunion in Spring Green (temporary, owners say) and Short Stack Eatery (closing in May). Hong Kong Cafe is for sale. Bar Manzo closed in December, and The Wedge, a bar on Atwood Avenue, closed this month...
RSK: In case you missed it....and there will be more. Nothing comes and goes as fast as restaurants other than "Houdini".
