What User doesn't like about Kaleva Tavern:
It's such a disappointment that this restaurant consistently offers mediocre food and poor service. I've visited at various times of the year, on different days and evenings, but I've never left satisfied. This place truly needs a complete makeover—it's time to let the current staff go and bring in new management to turn things around. View all feedback. What User likes about Kaleva Tavern:
Friday fish fry and an all you can eat salad bar and many other home made salads. The menu offers different types of fish and steaks. The 16 ounce Porter house was excellent and cooked to the happy medium I wanted. Wife got the cod, 3 pieces, she said it filled her up but it would not have filled me up. Many home made desserts too. I rolled out of there and can't wait to go back. View all feedback.

The service was lackluster, and the white fish dish was disappointing. I wouldn't return for it.

We ordered a small pizza topped with ham and pepperoni, and it was excellent!
