I have no idea how The Greenie made Madison Magazine's list of best fish frys. The food is old school and not in a good way; the deep fryer is the most used piece of kitchen equipment and, unfortunately, they don't filter/change the oil often so that everything has an off taste. They have tried to update the menu and introduce new items, but there's only so much creativity that happens when Sysco is their main purveyor. Veggies are of the canned and frozen variety and the salads, YIKES don't even get me started. So, you say, the food is bad but how about the bar? Well, if you like the regulars sitting in the bar stools and getting all of the attention from the unfriendly bartenders, then this place is for you. Sure they can make an old-fashioned or pour a beer, but the Madison-area has plenty of other supper clubs that can make a better cocktail and meal than The Greenie.
