The food and service are exceptional. The noise from the bar is pervasive in the open plan layout. We were moved to a booth near the upstairs back bar and were more comfortable there. The server and bartender went above and beyond to fix a bar order. The bartender actually came to the table to apologize. I’ll be returning. The Caesar salad has my favorite white anchovies.

Happy to finally get to experience the New & improved Tavern with the family to celebrate my sister's 30th bday!! Benny took care of us as always and our waiter was wonderful as well, we really enjoyed his banter. I do wish there were more GF options like there were before across the street. We did miss the GF bread/pasta options. But over all a great celebration dinners like we use to have back in the day. Thanks for having us Tavern Team!

You will be happy to hear that as of TODAY we have both linguine and penne pasta as gluten free options. We are currently working on providing a GF bread option as well. We are sorry those were not available on your visit.... but, they are now a permanent part of our offerings. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Best regards, The Tavern on Rush Management Team

We had a great meal, with fabulous service but we were upstairs and it was BLAZING hot. Should probably look into a separate AC unit.

Outstanding service from Charles. We had delicious appetizers, including crab that was not on the menu, but Charles worked with the chef to make it happen. Brunch was a great mix, one salad, an omelette and ahi tuna . . topped it off with the chocolate cake dessert and cheesecake. Great way to enjoy brunch!

Got in last minute after we couldn’t get into Gibsons. This place is a big “skip” for us. As expensive as other restaurants but mediocre food, presentation / plating looks like something I’d serve at home on a random Tuesday, table cloths are dingy and worn. “Medium” filet was overdone and dry. No idea why anyone would eat here but for they waited til last minute and couldn’t get in elsewhere.

Thanks for the feedback Jennifer. We're sorry to hear that your recent visit to Tavern didn't meet your expectations. We take pride in our food and presentation, and we're disappointed that we fell short during your visit. We'll certainly take your comments into consideration as we strive to improve our service and dining experience. We hope you'll give us another chance to impress you in the future.

This was the second time we’ve tried this place. The only thing good was the table outside. My burger was well done( ordered mr) my daughters steak tough… husband had brunch eggs were fine. I never ever leave a bad review… I’m not that critical but TOR is just not good. Service was ok.everything was BAD UPDATE: the restaurant contacted me and were so apologetic. We will be going back to try again. They were very generous and kind!!! I’ll update after.

Thanks for visiting us Lynn. After reading this, all I can do is start by saying I'm sorry. We take your feedback on our food and service very seriously. To read that even after a first lack luster visit you still gave us a second chance and we failed you again truly is upsetting. We always aim to deliver a great experience. We will continue to work with our chefs and rest of the kitchen staff to ensure that we are executing food to near perfection. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with a better experience. I have sent you a private note in regards to your visit(s). I hope you can find the time to respond. Thank You for Your Time, The Management Team
