Migrants - Madison

Migrants is no longer located along the beltline and they do not have a physical location for the restaurant. Instead you can order online or by phone for catering (5+ people) with delivery.

I’ve been meaning to come after meeting the owner a couple months ago at an event but today’s service and quality was horrible. I don’t know if today was an off night but the wait time and food wasn’t great. The wait time was too long yet the food was barely even lukeworm. I ordered the taco dinner with charro beans yet got black beans that were so dry, they looked like they had been microwaved repeatedly. While waiting to order, I watched as the group in front of me grew increasingly frustrated and I tried to remain understanding but everything from the cold food to poor communication from the employees made it an irredeemable experience. I can’t even blame it on the language barrier as I’m bilingual and was speaking Spanish to them. I’m so disappointed to say the least.

We booked Migrants for our wedding reception. The food was AMAZING. I got so many compliments. Not only was the food great but Oscar and his staff worked their butt off to make sure our dinner and day was perfect. I couldn't have been happier. We love them!Dietary restrictions: Options for vegetarians, gluten free, and other restrictions

My name is Shelby and I wanted to share with you my personal hero of our family. Chef Oscar’s impeccable talent of creating edible art allows my lost senses to return. After over exposure to vaccines during the pandemic I am unable to taste flavors and textures at any other restaurant. Chef Oscar fixed this handicap at his lovely establishment Migrants.I have lived in Madison 40+ years and have never been to such establishment that provides a guest experience, incredible and creative cuisine consistently. Chef Oscar knows what he is doing and shows humility while doing so.People in our retirement community would love to make a monthly trip to Migrants for drag brunch, taco Tuesday. We are tired of eating flat, lacking creativity, plain frozen dishes from Sysco or Reinhart Food vendors. I wish we could hire you for personal chef cooking courses!Looking forward to seeing you again soon!Dietary restrictions: Very Vegan friendly

I have eaten here a couple of times and as a vegan really want to like it, but a visit in January 2023 has completely put me off of this place. Customer service was not great and I have concerns about how the food is being handled here. People were wearing gloves while on cell phones and preparing my meal. Overall the flavor of the food is mediocre.
