    My hamburger ordered medium rare was very dry and I would never order the Slender Margarita” again, but my guests enjoyed their food and drink and the service and ambiance were very good. So we might return.

    The service was curt, seemed rushed. Spouse had the pork chops which were very good. The dinner salads were nice. I chose a lobster ravioli, that came out cold, sauce broken, and upon return it was very hot, but the lobster meat was claw meat and very tough texture. The wine requested with dinner was very delayed and was comped.

    Long time customer of The Tavern. Been a fav for years. Unfortunately it’s not what it once was. No more attention to customer service and excellent food. Never know if the food is going to spot on or if it will be brown and over seasoned.

    We felt rushed. Our salads arrived before our cocktails. Our entrees arrived before we were done with our salads. Timing of service felt off, but food was excellent and staff were friendly.

    The food was great. We had the filet and beef stroganoff and split a wedge salad. It was the best wedge I have ever had. Our server was prompt and helpful. The decor is not fabulous but there is nice original art on the walls. I noticed the dining area was brighter earlier ( perhaps for seniors?)and the lights went lower after 7. The wine and the drink were reasonably priced

    Always enjoy the Tavern. Food was as good as always however the server was off her game. Much slower than what we normally experience. Only came by our table once to see if our drinks were ok. We were in there for well over an hour. Saw 2 tables seated after us that received their food (same server as ours) before we did. Perhaps this was a kitchen issue.

    Unfortunately a friend we brought for her birthday ordered the salmon Benedict. When it came the salmon was lox and she was expecting salmon. The restaurant didn’t charge for the meal, but she was disappointed with her choice. The other two meals were fine. Wish sugar free syrup would be available for pancakes. Also, non dairy cream for coffee.

    Great menu choices, good service! We had reservations, so that helped, but we probably would have been seated without because we got there before 6pm. The only complaint I have is it was a little warm in the restaurant. It's hard to help that when it's 102º outside and the place is full of warm bodies, so it's not much of a complaint. The food was delicious, the cocktail was innovative (the beet one on the specials list), the fish tacos were FIRE. Dylan, our server, was working his tush off in a room with a temp comfortable for those of us sitting, and he still moved quickly and efficiently. We will be back again and again. This was my first visit since WAY before the Covid. I forgot how good the food was. Can't wait to come again!

    The air-conditioning was not working, and they still sat us and took our order before we complained, and they told us that "it wasn't going to get any better". They did nothing to try and manage the situation. We even had to ask to have out water filled in these circumstances. The service was slow. And service was even at times gruff. We sweat through a mediocre meal with poor service. I won't go back.

    I ordered the sliders. there was a hair in the first one i ate. i didn't want to complain so just moved on to the next one. then my daughter found a hair in her brie bacon grilled cheese. we didn't complain. just put our credit card out, paid and left. not blaming our server, but maybe a staff shortage....everything took forever. disappointing
