Fabiola’s is a gem from all angles. The vibe is cozy, yet lively. I loved the cocktails (esp paloma and espresso martini) and wonderful food! I came back twice in one week and had the charcuterie board both times. Fridays and Saturdays they have an outside oyster bar. Great vegetarian and gluten free pasta. Don’t sleep on the beet salad. It’s the best I’ve ever had— hope they add it to the regular menu.

We were able to sneak a seat at the bar, 2 of us, no reservation (but you should get a reservation on their website!) and it was the best meal I have had in a long time. It’s been months since the last time and I still think about this pork saltimbocca. A little pricy for my budget, but for special occasions, it’s worth every penny.

Just ate here recently with some friends and it was just solid Italian food. Bread basket was delicious, as was the artichoke appetizer. The penne arrabiata is one of the best I have ever had. It was served with some roasted broccolini which was cooked perfectly. Don't get me started on the tiramisu - such a strong coffee flavor in the best way. I had never heard of spumoni before but it's a layered gelato and that was tasty too. The portion sizes are quite reasonable for one person to finish. Not the kind of place you'd go on an average weekday, but for a special occasion this would be perfect. The service was great and the staff were very friendly. We were pretty much the last people in the restaurant and they very kindly did not rush us out. Absolutely will return for our next special occasion.

Very impressed! Cute little Italian spot. Food and service were top notch. Kinsey was our server she was helpful and friendly. We had the fettuccine and eggplant parm, both were delicious and flavorful. Make sure to save room for dessert, best gelato and coffee I have had in Madison. Cannot wait to go back!

The food here is closer to a 5 but there are a few drawbacks that make it more of a 4.6 but I cant give them that rating on google. This place is better than your average resturaunt & over all a solid choice to go to if you are craving home cooked italian. The atmosphere & decor are wonderful & attract you inside. The drinks are strong & they also have a very nice wine list. For dinner I got the Linguine Vongole for $27 which was a little salty but still delicous, it is a smaller serving than other dishes but im ok with that, though I would have happily eaten more because it was so good. It also had a lot of sauce but no bread or anything to use for it. My SO got Spaghetti Puttanesca for $24 which was good, not wow but still good. We'd probably order something else next time but werent unhappy with it, if we were served it we would happily eat it again, and the vegetables were cooked perfect! (flavorful & not mushy) Dessert was a 3" canoli for $7, which was fine but not worth it imo. My biggest complaint was just our server, she appeared to be a college student who seemed to think it ok to make fun of customers.
