   On a 92+ degree day they gave us a table under an umbrella where half of us were in the direct sun. Before we sat down I asked if we could get a different table that wasn’t directly in the sun, the hostess went back to check and said No this is the only table they have even though there were at least 4 large tables under the shade right next to us that remained unoccupied for the duration of our meal. Our waitress took a while to come over to us, got our drink order and then seemingly forgot about us for about 30 minutes, by that time we were all ready to order appetizers and meals and she ran away after taking our appetizer order without taking our meal order, then disappeared for another 30 minutes, finally took our meal orders and they came out in a reasonable amount of time. Then she was nowhere to be found for a good 50 minutes. Since it was so hot out and half of us were in the sun our waters were gone in no time. When she finally came back I just asked for a pitcher of water bc we were all empty, she brought it back in a reasonable amount of time. Then before she ran away again we asked for the check. So overall we were there for 2 hours!!!! Which was way too long. Food was ok, portion size was good. But the poor service and the fact that we were baking in the sun made this meal unpleasant to say the least. I’ve been here before several times before and had good experiences but after this experience I’ll be looking elsewhere the next time we go out to eat.

   The salmon was a little too dry for my sister and me. I had raved so much about the food. I was disappointed.

   Tavola never disappoints. The food is always delicious and freshly made, the staff is always nice and serve with a smile, and the crowd is always good and family friendly. We dine here regularly and plan to have a baby shower at the country club in June.

   We had a very nice dinner at Tavola! We were a party of five. Some of us got sandwiches and the others got meals. We were happy with our dinners. Our server was excellent I can’t remember her name! Thank you Tavola! We will be back!

   Frozen drinks taste like frozen water. The water even tasted horrible. Cheesesteak rolls were dried out, sauce taste like mayonnaise. We ordered Glazed salmon and the starch was the chef’s choice which was roasted potatoes…..we literally got like 5 small potatoes, the vegetables were bland. They were cooked with butter tho. The shrimp linguine was made with wine sauce, tasted horrible as well. Looked like it was dirty water. Unseasoned, but the shrimp was good and the portion size was good also.

   Tavola was a great place to meet friends. My first time there and won’t be the last. Beautiful golf course setting. The atmosphere is as fun and energetic. Outside dining was perfect. Our waitress was very busy but attentive to our requests. Bruschetta appetizer was fantastic as well as the veggie/hummus plate. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meal and don’t pass on dessert!! Yum!

   The waitress was excellent. Some food was delayed, but it was not her fault. We love being able to sit outdoors overlooking the golf course. We have a company dinner or luncheon quarterly and this is our first choice.

    We had a large party and our 1st table was way to hot. Your staff was able to put us at another table with no issues. Joey was our waiter and he was amazing as well. We will be booking another Cousin's Nite Out and will dine at Tavols's again.

    My wife and I go to this rest. on a monthly basis, by ourselves and with other couples. Every other time was great, but not this time. All complaints pertain to the service. The one , and only peve is that both meals were not served together, and the gap between getting the meals was over 15 minutes. By the time I got my food my wife's food was cold. The food is good and we will go again and give it another chance.

    Tavola is always a good choice. It was Mother’s Day and we were not rushed. All our food was delicious but O was hoping for better choices. I do not think breakfast sandwiches are appropriate for a Mother’s Day breakfast.

    I have been to Tavola as many times over the years and wanted to take a date there (who had never been there before). We were each given 2 different menus (only one of them was current). The waitress then informed us that there were no pizza or quesadillas available. We ordered bruschetta as an appetizer to split. The bread was fresh, not crispy or crunchy as it’s supposed to be (and as I have had it there before), so it was just 5 slices of soggy bread with tomatoes on top for $11. Our meals were adequate but no where near the standard I have come to know & love from Tavola‘s. I had asked to sit along the wall overlooking the golf course but we were given a table right next to the bar up against a plastic wall instead, even though all of the tables overlooking the golf course were open and available. It seem like there were not enough waitresses or bar staff as our waitress had to make our drinks as well as serve them and take our order.

    Food was bad to basic. Raviolis were overcooked, my hamburger was obviously a frozen patty, not sure why they asked what temperature I wanted as it probably can’t be anything other than medium well. Wings were decent but how tough is that? No pizzas or Quesadilla available. Food has gone down hill. Service was bad. Our server disappeared after our food arrived. Maybe one stop for a drink order 30 minutes later. Our dishes were left on the table until we left. Music was great, which is why we came.

    While the wait staff was nice, when they checked on our table, the food took 45 minutes to arrive! Wait staff should have been updating and checking on us more frequently. I had to ask what the hold-up was, and was told the kitchen was backed up with a baby shower at the club. Yet tables near us, who were seated after us, got their food before we did. Also, no paper towels in the ladies restroom, apparently for quite a while. Once I found out, I told a staff member so it could be remedied.

We are definitely meeting their again because even though we came from Phila. Delaware, Chester and Montgomery counties, it took all of us about 20 minutes to get there.

    We booked outdoor dining, online ahead of time. When we arrived we were seated sort of outdoors, not as anticipated. The wait staff was efficient but not friendly. Salads and mains arrived at essentially the same time. We were not asked if we wanted dessert of coffee which was OK this time, but odd. The live singer was good at his craft but it was so loud it was hard to have a conversation. The food was good and the portions good sized.

    Food was TERRIBLE. Shrimp le jon—horribly overcooked. Salad with “grilled” salmon—some of the greens were bad, salmon looked deep fried and was vulcanized. I asked for it slightly done—medium—it was hard & dry & crunchy. Service was wonderful. Ambiance was mostly lovely outside, but quite loud. FOOD WAS HORRIBLE.
