About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions

A landmark experience. A dining and drinking destination. A historic tradition. Since its inception, the Kaufman House has been a gathering place for travelers, neighbors and friends. Today, Kaufman Tavern continues and updates the tradition, providing a warm welcome, restorative libations and a fun, comfortable, exquisite dining experience. The food is the real star here: a top-notch, scratch-made, local, eco-friendly and--most importantly--delicious dining experience. Our menu reflects the best of the US and the bounty of our region. Cajun and creole. Northern and Southern. The East and West coasts and beyond. This is hand made, lovingly crafted, just plain good food. Kaufman Tavern is new American cuisine at its finest.

    Everything is good at the Kaufman Tavern! My husband likes the fish sandwich, and I tried the crab cake. Both were very good!

    Our party of 6 was seated at our table. It took the server at least 15 min to greet us. She took our appetizer order. She only took 1 drink order. Came back with the appetizers and the one drink. She proceeded to take our dinner order. Someone in the party asked if we could order from the bar. She took 4 drink orders, then said she would b back with more water. We never saw her again for at least 25 min. My husband went to the bar to check on our drink order. Not a soul at the bar. The bartender went to the kitchen and returned saying “she’ll be right out.” A few minutes later she brought the food and bar drinks. Never came back to check on us. Never brought more water. When she finally came back she took our plates. She asked if there was anything else. Nope just the check. She brought that, then asked for our silverware because the dishwashing staff needed to leave. The restaurant was not busy. My husband and I dine out a lot. I have never received such poor service as we did tonight. We will not be going back. It’s a shame because the food was outstanding.

    Lovely atmosphere for dining and conversation with my family of 4. We were celebrating my 50 th birthday and Father’s Day. Our waitress was warm and kind and lovely personality.

    We waited over 30 mins for salads and burgers to be delivered. We had to flag down our waitress for refills. Burger was over cooked.
