The last four games of the Sweet Sixteen round are tonight, and on Saturday and Sunday we're on to the Elite Eight battles.

Come to Liliana's and sit at the bar,  keeping up with the games on TV while listening to live jazz, enjoying our special happy hour food and drinks all night in the bar. Plus all of our tap beers are just $2 during the games! It's the best of all worlds!
 
Or if you like, bring some of Liliana's home with you with our great take-out specials and enjoy the games at home.
 
Or escape the moment-by-moment watching of the games and try some of our new spring menu items, and still be able to get up and check the scores between courses.

Any way you do it, you'll be glad you included Liliana's in your plans for this weekend!
 
LiveMusicLive Music

There's nothing like live music.

We believe in it so much that we have live music almost every day at Liliana's, featuring some of Madison's best.

But as much as we love live music, we also know that it's just part of the reason you come to visit us. You also come for the great wines, food, cocktails, atmosphere, and conversation, and we never let the musicians get so loud that conversation is difficult.

Here's what's coming up over the next week or so:

See our calendar for the latest updates.
Special event: Monday April 12 - West High School Jazz Ensembles

Easter
Join us on Easter for a special Easter Sunday Brunch Buffet. We'll be sending out additional details soon, so watch your inbox!

We'll also be serving some great specials for Easter dinner in the evening.

Cooking Classes
The cooking classes at Liliana's provide a totally different experience from the "cooking demonstration" style class you may have taken elsewhere. They are very hands-on, and give you a chance to work with several different chefs at different stations in a real commercial kitchen.

Find out more about our upcoming classes on April 11 and April 25 here.
