My Madison Go-to
I always make a point of dining at Rare at least once during every visit to Madison for work. The atmosphere in the bar area during their 4-6 happy hour cannot be beat. There's always lots of energy and a good mix of people from different type

Got invited to a dinner party at this steak house this week. Well, it was really good. The drinks were great and the steak tasted like from an authentic steak house. Salmon was also very tasty and all the Hors d'oeuvres were delicious too. We ha

One of the best dining experiences I've ever had.
The food was amazing, but the service was literally the best I've ever experienced. Genevieve(?) was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and kind.
Fantastic experience for my 1st visit to Madison.
I chose the medium-rare Filet which tasted very good. Watermelon with mint makes the salad refreshing! People are friendly and caring, excellent service! A good place for date with others!
You will not be disappointed, but you will not leave
You will not be disappointed, but you will not leave itching to come back. You know what you are getting yourself into price-wise, but you are better off dropping a band at a better steakhouse in the area. Service is mediocre, and my New York Strip w

This has been one of our favorite spots but sadly this last experience will keep me away a while. We ordered oysters on the half shell and my husband ate one and almost had to it spit it out. It was a bad oyster. We told our server and she offered to

Quality is lacking for the price
Disappointed in this steakhouse, especially given the prices there. Our ribeye steak was tough and done medium when we ordered medium rare, the bar staff was too busy to check in with us very often (we sat at the bar), and the place was too dark, mak
Great food and amazing service
We had a wonderful dinner at Rare and were blown away by the service. Genevieve and her team went above and beyond - adapting dishes to our preferences, offering great recommendations, and checking back frequently to match each course to our desired
One amazing meal!
This was hands down one of the best overall meal experiences I’ve ever had when you count the ambiance, the service and the food. Was it pricey? Yes. Was the steak delicious? Yes. First of all, dim lights by and tables not too close together goes
Best dry aged steaks and Japanese Sakura pork chops in Madison.
If you’re looking for an elegant setting, the best dry aged beef and a fantastic cocktail or bottle of wine, Rare is the best in Madison by far. That said, I ordered the Japanese Sakura bone in pork chop with rosemary au jus. OMG! That was simply

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Rare Steakhouse Madison at 6 PM the same day. 
    He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Rare Steakhouse Madison page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
    Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
    1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* GallantAnswer60, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* GallantAnswer60 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to GallantAnswer60 for any questions Peter may have as GallantAnswer60 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* GallantAnswer60 now uses their connections at Rare Steakhouse Madison to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If GallantAnswer60 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, GallantAnswer60 receives the $200 reward which is credited to GallantAnswer60's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Rare Steakhouse Madison!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
