The Klassik Tavern Menu

Sorry, We are updating this restaurant menu details.

    Went to The Klassik to watch a packers playoff game... that they ended up losing... and met up with some friends here who lived out in Verona. The outside doesn't look like anything special, but when you walk in, it's actually quite big. To the right is a banquette room, as well as if you go straight downstairs. To the Left was the bar. Filled with TVs, love the almost horseshoe bar, and not positive if they sell food or not cause when we were there they were doing a potluck. But the drinks there were fantastic, I ended up getting two Mimosas that were so good, and huge for $4 which I thought was at a pretty awesome price. Our bartender was the sweetest, super attentive to everyone in the bar, and was just awesome. I'd definitely give Klassik another go on another game day :)

    Staff was extremely friendly. Definitely made us feel like home even though it was our first time there. The bartender made it a point to call me by my first name through our conversations which I've never experienced before. Would have probably stayed longer but I think I'm use to Columbia county prices because they seemed a little high here.

    Wow, if this is the best Verona has to offer, I feel for the people who live there. I could have had a better meal at one of the coffee shops nearby. We sat outside for the music which was as sad as the meal. Service was super slow with only 3 occupied tables on the patio. It's hard to actually describe how mediocre the food was, like rancid butter, stale buns, limp cold vegetables, etc.

    After a long hot bike ride, we found this place nearby and decided our legs could use a little post-ride walking to stretch out. So we walked over and headed on inside to...a very empty restaurant. It was only like 4 in the afternoon and the kitchen wasn't supposed to open for almost another hour, but we were hungry! Thankfully, the owner and the cook were very accommodating and let us put our order in then. We would have been really disappointed if we had to leave with empty stomachs. I ordered a big juicy burger with fries and it was awesome. I was so hungry that I demolished the whole thing.

    We keep trying other places and then return to The Klassik for fish! Both the baked and deep fried cod are awesome. The perch is also excellent. Lots of potato choices and for a small additional charge you can get a wedge salad. Outdoor seating in the summer is really nice, and the inside also has a nice feel...updated from the Cozy Inn that previously occupied the space. Bruce and his staff are very friendly and attentive, stopping by to make sure everything is OK. Drinks are good, beer is cold. No complaints, just a nice relaxing Friday evening with a good fish dinner.

    Love the Klassik. Recently enjoyed a fish fry (sat outdoors on a gorgeous fall evening). The bartender/server, Jimmy, is awesome!! He makes great drinks and is a great conversationalist. Can't wait to return. Cheryl C.

    Came early on a Friday night and there were lots of open tables in the main dining room but for some odd reason we were taken up to a small room that had maybe 3 tables. And there we sat all alone for maybe 5 minutes before the waitress arrived to get our drink orders and then left us alone again in this little room. I felt like I had been punished for some reason and been sent to my room. I mean, why can't we be done there with all those other people who are having fun and laughing, while here I am stuck in this little room all by ourselves. Just weird. The atmosphere of the place is like going back to the 60's. I think Disney Land has a restaurant like that in their MGM park. Well by golly you can have that same feel right here in Verona at much less cost than Disney. Now to the food. I was the only one in the family to get the fish dish (fried cod). It was plenty of food (2 nice sized pieces) but they were battered too much and slightly over cooked. Definitely a "3" for Yelp. The fries were from a frozen bag and were below average. My wife got a burger which was average, but she praised the hash browns that came with it. Daughter 1 got a BLT wrap which she said was quite good. Daughter 2 got an appetizer of chicken wings with a side of cheesy potatoes. The wings were pronounced superb but the potatoes just OK. Oh, and then just as we were finishing another group was seated in our little room so it finally felt like a real restaurant. Bottom line, their are other places that do better Friday night fish. I'll be going to those places in the future.

    The kind of place where you can mind your own business and have a drink or leave with everyone knowing your name. Supper Club experience or old school bar where owner stops in and buys you a drink (he did!). Sally, Jimmy, and Phil will entertain as needed and are solid. No fancy drinks but good beer and company. And you can request a pink squirrel or grasshopper if Dok is in. We left with a gift of bread and a smile.

    I heard a lot of good reviews from Verona locals. My boyfriend and I decided to visit The Klassik for dinner. Best decision of the week! As soon as we walked in, we noticed the bar on the right side and the restaurant to the left. Very clean and decorated with appealing modern decor. We ordered the cheese curds as an appetizer, Doktor Burgers --- See uploaded photo, and the house made Snickers cheesecake. All were delicious! The service was wonderful and attentive. Will definitely return.

    I was hoping they would turn out to be a good old school supper club with good steaks and fish fry but I'm disappointed. I've been to the restaurant about 4 times in the last couple of years and never come away feeling like I had a quality meal. You can go to the local Culvers and get a better fish fry for less money. I had a steak and the salad as the starter was something my kids would make, tiny and iceberg with little else and the steak was thin and overcooked. It gets two stars because the bar is nice and they make very good cocktails. This is a good place to meet for a few drinks, but eat elsewhere.

    I've been back to the Klassik several times now and have been generally very pleased. While I haven't revisited the fish fry, I have sampled their other goodies, including the wonderful Sunday morning brunch/breakfast. The service is always top-notch. There's a gentleman by the name of Jimmy who may be the best server/host/bartender in the greater Madison area. He will definitely take care of your table - he's a great conversationist, super responsive, and really helpful. Superb. Absolutely superb. They've added a few weekend extras as well, including hosting the occasional band on their outdoor patio. I've enjoyed more than a few beverages while sitting on that patio... and speaking of beverages, their beer selection has really improved; all are reasonably priced as well. So... while the fish fry isn't quite yet a winner, the rest of the food, beverages, and "extras" (staff, environment) are truly worthy of 4-stars. Give this place a try. You'll be glad you did. Oh... before I forget - back to the breakfast - they only serve until noon, and they tend to run out of the crustless quiche well before they stop serving, so arrive a little early if you're in the mood. The eggs, bacon, french toast, and omelettes are among the area's best.

    Bar and bartenders are first rate! Their beef is simply awful. They need to find a new vendor. Either that or their fridge needs replacement. Wait staff in the bar is excellent. Wait staff in the dining room is beyond rude. We've tried it at least 6 or 7 times. We will not return

    As we always have come to expect, my wife and I had another great meal at the Klassic last night. The ribs were excellent and the service impeccable. My wife decided to try the tomato bisque soup instead of salad and she loved it. The rib special were fall off the bone tender and delicious.

    I'm not sure why this place averages 4.5 stars. The food here is okay. I've had worse, but there is nothing special about the food. It is one step up from bar food. They are noted for ribs and while they were good, there are better places to have ribs. The cheesy hash browns were terrible. A mound of undercooked potatoes and onions ( which weren't noted in the description ) with a slab of cheese on top. The decor is old but charming. It's like walking into my grandmothers house with a bar. I would not recommend if your looking to have a fabulous meal, but if you just need something to eat, this place will work.

    I wasn't sure what a supper club was when I decided to walk up the road from the Holiday Inn, but I'm glad I did. This unassuming, unpresumptuous establishment was quiet, relaxed, and comfortable, yet classy. I enjoyed an excellent medium rare filet and glass of Cabernet, served in a proper glass. More recently, I tried the French Dip, which they make with prime rib. It melted in my mouth and was without question the best French Dip I've ever had. Fair prices and excellent, attentive service. If you're here for Epic training and are tired of trendy, busy brew pubs, this is the place for you. They still serve craft beer! Just minus the loud, business traveler crowd.

    It's a supper club with great service and decent food. I sat at the bar first. I met the owner, Dok (aka Bruce), who was more than happy to sit and talk with you, swap funny stories, even bought me a drink. All the bartenders were great. Then I got a table in the dining room, to sit for dinner. It was a Saturday, so they had prime rib on special. Prime rib dinner with potato and a salad for $18.95. We ordered one prime rib dinner, and I got the 10oz tenderloin, which came with one side, either a salad, soup, vegetable, or potato, for $22.95. Both dinners were ok. I ordered my tenderloin Medium Rare, and it was Medium in the middle and Medium Well at the ends. The prime rib was cooked to order, but it was a little on the tough side. Neither of our steaks melted in our mouths, like we had hoped. Overall, I might go back because we got great service at the bar.

    The Klassik is a great bar and supper club down in Verona. Walking inside, the bar is down to the right hand side. It's a long room with an interesting layout. The bar itself is the length or the room. It juts out a little 1/4 of the way down before tucking back in another 1/4 of the way down, then takes a shallow angle inboard to the end of the room, where it doglegs back in on itself at almost 180 degrees. This forms a commanding table out at the very end of the bar. It's pretty cool, but it mans you'll need a minute to figure out where to sit! There are a few hi-top tables on the perimeter and a big picture window with a good view outside. The bar stools themselves have low back with wings that wrap around into armrests -- super-comfortable and great to sit in for a long while. The food is excellent and I have yet to have a bad anything. Dinner plates come with fresh baked rolls, choice of potato, a wedge salad and main dish.The grouper sandwich was delicious. Their ribs were shockingly good with a pleasantly sweet yet spicy sauce; they're easily the best ribs I've had in Wisconsin -- drop in on Wednesdays where you can get a full-rack for the half-rack price. The wedge salad on offer is a 1/5 wedge of super-crisp iceberg with carrot, cucumber and fresh baby spinach served with dressing -- the ranch dressing and blue cheese dressing are both homemade and good options. I've also sampled the cod fish fry a friend had as well as the fried shrimp special. Both are available on Fridays. I noted very high quality fish and shrimp here. The cod had a delicate sweetness I don't find at other places and the battering was light and crisp. The shrimp are jumbo size and obviously from the Gulf of Mexico; they had that tender richness I've only had before in New Orleans. Cocktail sauce is homemade and how I would make it if I were to do it myself -- just the right amount of horseradish to be spicy but shrimp and crispy batter flavors still come through.This is a great treat and I plan to return just for these alone. The loaded baked potato was ok and could have been baked a bit more, but despite being wall-to-wall packed nothing else was under- or over- cooked. Johanna and Jimmy down at the bar are the nicest bartenders in the area and treat you like a regular from your first visit on. The waitstaff is just as nice. I can't recommend this place strongly enough. I've never been in the dining room, but I imagine its at least as good as the bar area. Enjoy it!

    Friday fish fry is good and at a fair price, lake perch also very good. Service was excellent and drinks from the bar came quickly and priced right. One person in our party had the ribeye and enjoyed it. Overall a good place to go with great service and fair pricing. One last comment, we had the banana cream pie and it was very good, it looked and tasted like it was homemade.

    This was a very old fashion type restaurant. I didn't go to the bar but it was hopping for a weekday evening. The food was good, though I didn't try the fish. I ordered meat loaf. It was nice.
