Reviews
My mom and I knew that wasn’t too bad, being a Friday “fish fry day”. But the way the service was and the off putting they had towards us was the most uncomfortable. They said that there was only one server and we would have to continue to wait. As we stood there multiple people kept coming in and getting seated right away, along with a server. They had multiple servers in and out of the table, which we all looked at each other and just amazed and puzzled.
We finally got seated and again we sat there and NO one came to help us. Again as others came in and got seated and served right away. We stayed and sat there over 20 mins. Finally got up and no one tried speaking to us as we walked out.
I’ve gone to Verona for over 30 years to visit my gramma and my dad’s side of the family.
This was by far the worst experience!
We had an older lady as our waitress. She started off like she was annoyed that we were there. Not friendly at all(she got a little better by the end). She saw the drink chips on our table and her 1st words were, “I can’t take those, you can only use those at the bar” I mentioned that the bartender just gave them to us to use. She was snarky and said “whatever, I will take them this time”.
Now to the food… we ordered 2 appetizers. Cheese curds and bruschetta. Cheese curds were good, bruschetta didn’t have balsamic and wasn’t great. Tomato soup not good either. We ordered the 16 oz ribeyes. For $34.99 each we expected a decent one.. they were the thinnest ribeyes I have ever had in a restaurant.(maybe a half an inch thick) very salty as well. My wife ordered medium and it was close, I ordered medium rare and it l came out well done. Not a hint of pink. I added pictures of my 1st and second steak.. My waitress wasn’t around but another waitress came over when she saw I was lookkng for our waitress. She agreed it was well done, and took it back. A few minutes later I got the replacement one and it was blue rare. I ate it because I was hungry and waiting too long, but it was cold in the center and very rare. (Their cook has no idea what they’re doing).
Overall would not recommend and was a waste for our rare(no pun intended, or maybe it was…) date night.
I had several of the Wisconsin old fashioneds and I really liked them. Also had a “blind Russian” instead of a white Russian and it was good too.
For food, I had the lasagna and some of the ribs that someone else couldn’t finish. Everything was really good.
Overall had a great time. I have to come back several times over the next few months (Epic training) and this will definitely be one of my stops each time.
While slightly above the average price range, I found the food very good.
The salad was fresh and house dressing very nice.
The ravioli was flavorful and surprisingly, without being salty, tasty, nestled on a bed of spaghetti. The texture of the pasta was soft and yet al dante enough for a pleasant culinary experience. The mushroom filling of the had a very pleasant firmness to it without being crunchy. The sauce was very nice, tart without being too acidic. The accompanying spaghetti was nice and al dante!
The lemoncello cake was delightful although slightly sweet to my palate (as most cakes are). There was a nice flavor to it and it just melted in my mouth.
Service was great during this quiet time before the dinner crowd came in. I had let the hostess know that I wanted a quiet spot and she placed me in a nice quiet cove. The waitress did not bother me but was there almost immediately when I needed something.
Overall, the prices were somewhat fair for the atmosphere and food quality. I would recommend this place.
The salad was good with the basic toppings. The chicken was nicely grilled.
There are not many options in town but I don’t know that I would come back here again
