play around town A Roof With a View When the weather warms, head to one of these popular rooftop bars to enjoy some of the best views Madison has to offer For a view of the State Capitol: Sure, you can see the big dome from just about anywhere in town, but to savor some of the best views you can get, head to Fresco (left), the chic eatery atop the Madison Museum of Contemporary Arts, or nestle into the rooftop garden at Parthenon Gyros Restaurant, which also boasts panoramic views of nearby State Street. For a view of Lake Monona: It’s just the right combination for a relax- ing evening: watching waves gently roll across Lake Monona while en- joying food and drinks at the Lake Vista Cafe on the roof of the Monona Terrace. Add a good date (or two) and you’ve got yourself a perfect summer night. For a view of campus: If you’re in the mood for a lively atmosphere, locales near UW-Madison will always do the trick. Relive your college days sans the huge student crowds at Johnny O’s Restaurant and Bar or kick up your heels atop Brickhouse BBQ to feast on great barbecue (cooked by someone else for a change). For a view of a peaceful neighborhood: When you want to keep your evening low on city noise but high on class, try Bar Bistro 608, the cozy bistro set atop Sundance Cinemas at Hilldale Mall. Th e upscale vibe and open air offer a great atmosphere for intimate conversation, fabulous drinks and more. Find details on all the locations at bravamagazine.com!
