Graduation Weekend plans? We’ve got you. 🎓

Cadre still has reservations available for a celebratory evening with the people who got you here (or at least cheered you on along the way).

We’ll be serving a three-course prix fixe menu for $100 per person, excluding beverage, tax, and service. A $50 deposit per guest is required to reserve—fully applied to your final bill. 🍽️

Caps, gowns, and a really good dinner… not a bad way to close the chapter. 🥂

~preserved vegetable salad~
pickled beets and giardiniera, compressed fennel, house-made labna

If you’re looking for a new must-have in the Madison food scene, this is it.

A vibrant, herby salad built on a foundation of traditional labna, this salad is directly inspired by the grandmother of one of our line cooks, Selma Van-Eyck, and the Lebanese traditions she shared with him.

Thank you, Ramsey, from bringing a piece of home to our plates 🙌🏻
