    It was great as usual but they really need to honor reservations. As it was we had a late one at 8:15 but to not be able to be seated until almost 9 is not cool.

    Very cute inside, love the ambiance, service and food was great. Reservation a must as it gets pretty busy. We showed up 30 min after they opened with reservations and we were sat down immediately but the place was already busy.

    I had the romaine wedge and had it with blackened chicken and switched to blue cheese dressing. It was the best I’ve ever had!!! Can’t wait to go back!!! My wife had a Berger and it was by far the best Berger around and there are a few great Berger places around but I think this is definitely the best tasting Berger around!!! The space it very comfy for a quite date night. There were pleant of kids around but. They dident interfear with the ambiance of the resturant. It’s my third time there and still very satisfied with the restaurant.

    The atmosphere was lively and fun. Tables were not empty long. The staff were all friendly and helpful and remained calm although they were slammed Food, filet and mushroom tagliatelle, were not as awesome as last time we had them. Possibly because of amount of business. It won't keep us away, though.

    We went there with our family on a relatively not busy night. The hostess was friendly as was the wait staff. The food was delivered quickly, and only one or two reminders about food/drinks ordered but not delivered. The food overall was very good and the prices are reasonable.

    Victory Park was quite lovely The food was delicious and although one of us had to send back a dinner because it was too spicy, the chef was quite accommodating, placed fresh sides on a new plate without the spicy sauce , and was able to refresh the main entree, so the spicy sauce was subdued. Service excellent and everyone was pleasant and helpful. We look forward to returning! Thank you!

    This is our go to place for an informal meal that we can count on. I have a hard time not ordering the Tavern Burger every time but there are many good choices. The food is consistently well prepared to order. The bar is comfortable and the staff is always friendly.

    Staff outstanding. Waitress, Hostess and owner all wonderful people. We were disturbed by a music speaker behind our head and the staff willingly kept adjusting volume down until it was no longer a problem. This is an upscale pub style restaurant. Food is very good. Only disappointment was that the Brick Chicken was a bit dry/overcooked but did Not need to be returned. There is a very comfortable bar for those who like to enjoy that. I will return many times.
