About this restaurant

  • Great for brunch
  • Charming
  • Fancy
Tailwinds is a bright, warm and welcoming restaurant on Madison's east side, located inside the Doubletree by Hilton. Our space is a perfect stop for any occasion- to catch up with friends and family, watch the big game, or enjoy a special night out. Whether you're seated at the bar, a table next to our large sunlit windows, or curled up on a couch by our fireplace, you'll receive the same great service, hearty food, and handcrafted cocktails. Our signature cheese curds are are a crowd favorite, beer-battered & served with a zesty horseradish sauce. Stop in during Happy Hour to try them- everyday from 4 to 6pm we offer half off all our shareable dishes, as well as $2 off draft beer, wines by the glass, and well mixers. Dress is as casual or as formal as you would like. Come as you are, we can't wait to meet you!

    Food selection was great, however, food was dried out and not hot. Prime rib was tough. Scrambled eggs tasted like they were made from powder. Service was great, however, waiter overcharged me.
