The food and cocktails were great as always. However, we had issues with service. We arrived on-time for our reserved table. After waiting a bit, we were given a large table for five people instead of two as that was all that was available. It took 30 minutes for our server to come by our table after we were seated. She dropped off bread and water and left before we could even place a drink order. Our server literally disappeared on us after our main courses arrived. We had ordered a round of drinks with her just before receiving our food. Those never arrived. After waiting a while for her to appear and not seeing her, we had to ask for assistance. The drinks were then finally brought to us, and we were told were on the house. They later showed up on the bill anyway and we had requested an adjustment which was done. I can only guess that our server left for the night. It was apparent that no other server was assigned to our table after she left. After waiting a while, a different server finally stepped in to take our desert order and getting us our check. We have visited this restaurant before and always had an enjoyable experience. Hence, we were surprised by the service issues we encountered. This put a damper on our night out.

Beautiful decor- fresh & modern. Small, full bar with large TV. Place was immaculate, unlike the clientele. Waitress took a bit to come to the table and when she did she expected to take our food order without asking if we would like to order drinks. I ordered my drink anyway and she then expected us to order our food. Definitely rushed. I didn’t let that sway us, we ordered when we were ready. Filet Mignon was very good & cooked perfectly. It was accompanied by green beans, carrots & mashed potatoes. The fish had a nice flavor but too mild which made salt necessary. It came with a plate of potatoes, strangely no veggies Good warm chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. Loved the White Orchid tea. Will return.

We LOVE Taverna Mykonos! This is our go-to spot for dining and take out. The food is absolutely delicious and very consistent. Our favorite dish is the octopus appetizer. We recommend this place to everyone. The restaurant is usually fairly quiet and casual, however we went this Saturday night and the vibe was very chic and upbeat; still an overall inviting atmosphere. Cannot say enough good things about it!!

Ambience was very nice, parking is not plentiful and the location is right off the highway. The server was very nice. The kitchen seemed overwhelmed as it got busy fast, fries were severely undercooked, we never received our Greek salad until after our entrees, and the rest of the food was just ok. Nothing to rave about, and I would not come back.

In the middle of nowhere so as I arrived I was concerned enough to think maybe I should give up and find a better place for dinner. So glad I stayed. Food was fabulous. Octopus, halibut, filet mignone - all perfect. I’m so fed up with “American” or Italian cuisine. I was really happy to find something new and of superb quality. Will be back!
