Cafe Carlotta health license appears in Madison records
Rule Changes Madison, WI localLicense on file for 2 S Carroll St, but operation unconfirmed
Overview
Public Health Madison & Dane County's list now shows a health license for Cafe Carlotta at 2 S Carroll St. The record first appeared on October 28, 2026, and classifies the business as primarily a restaurant.
The record gives no issue date and does not show whether the business is serving customers. A health license is one of several approvals a food business typically needs, so it confirms only that one permit is on file.
Why it matters
A Madison restaurant would add dining options, but a license on file does not show it is open.
