Visiting from Colorado with some friends and came across this place. Food was very delicious Highly recommend the Korean BBQ wings and Pork dumplings.
Came here for restaurant's week, unsure if we would be back for regular time (due to pricing) their restaurant's week menu is 100% worth the price. I enjoy everything from the atmosphere, service, food and drink. I highly recommend spicy tk miso ramen imo its better than Trio. Kani salad is fresh too.
Food is super amazing and well priced, but service was really bad. I was trying to make conversation with the server and was completely ignored me which really took ne by surprise. She didn’t ask me if i wanted a box for my leftovers and when i went to the host to ask for a box, I was directed to the bartender (who was on their phone) instead of just going and getting me a box. Both me and the person I was at dinner with are in the service industry and were really disappointed...read full review

Tavernakaya offers a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan options that are equally delightful as their non-vegetarian dishes. Their veggie loaded spring rolls are notably delicious, and the General Tso cauliflower is tasty, although could be crispier. The ramen served is one of the best in Madison area. Their sushi is highly anticipated and often enjoyed in an inviting atmosphere perfect for a special occasion or casual gathering with friends. The cocktails are creative and delectable. Notably, the menu includes dishes like curry chicken served as a large plate, though some find the portion size smaller than expected and the rice insufficient. The buns with meat are also available, but some feel they could be priced lower for the quantity. The restaurant is a good choice for authentic Japanese food and offers a pleasant atmosphere with inviting outside seating. Overall, Tavernakaya is a place to visit occasionally, especially when seeking a variety of tasty small plates, such as tuna roll, pork gyoza, and handcut fries with Asian spices.
