Great neighborhood spot, fantastic cocktails and meal was high quality.
Birthday party. Great event! Great food!
Ordered both the Cod and Scallops, but the Scallops were a bit on the salty side for my tastes.
The NY Strip was good and so were the short ribs. I also enjoyed the Blood Orange Margaritas. Friendly waitress and clean restaurant.
I'm so happy to have chosen this restaurant, everything was amazing and they paid special attention to details, because was my boyfriend birthday and they gave us a unbelievable night!!!. All the staff were amazing and charmed.
Dining experience was good. Ambiance and food very good. However, our waitress seemed a bit confused with the billing process without cause. It was explained to our waitress that the check should have been split among 2 separate credit cards and that did not happen. It was not until my friend and I left the restaurant that the error was discovered.
The Towson Tavern is very nice. Our waitress was very good but too busy. Our drinks went dry during dinner and that’s a pet peeve of mine. I don’t feel that should ever happen in a restaurant. Food was good but prices were a bit too high.
Food was exquisite. I had one of the daily specials. The pan seared Halibut was cooked just perfectly. I’ll be going back to try other dishes soon. I have had the Filet before and it was just as good. What a treat!
It was closed! WTF!
Food was excellent and service was extremely personal and speedy. Price was outrageous for what we got.
Entrees were ok. The apps were the best part. Service was slow. We were left waiting for our check for half an hour.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at the Towson Tavern this past Sunday ! We got the brussel sprouts, fried green tomatoes and bacon wrapped scallops for apps which were all DELICIOUS. And then split a burger and the beet salad for entrees. The beet salad was by far the best salad I have had in a very long time. The burger was cooked perfectly and the bacon jam on top was drool worthy.
We will definitely be back!
Great food , great staff . Recommend for parties of 4
This was my second time coming here but my fiancé’s first time. The food is always spectacular I never have any issues pertaining to that. However, this time my service was a bit Mediocre. I had two different people serving me so I’m not sure which one was our actual server . We placed our order for our meals and drinks but after receiving the food nobody came back to check for refills, if the meal was okay or anything. The manager was walking around so I able to flag him down to ask for what I needed. Great food but ok service, customer service is everything! It’s what brings the guest back every time.
Sean the GM was awesome, checked in on us and really went over and above on the service. Spike the waiter was knowledgeable and gave insight to the menu and we really enjoyed his recommendations. Very friendly environment. Would recommend to anyone who wants great food in Towson/Baltimore area.
Such a nice dinner! Never sat in the side dining room and really enjoyed it, especially decorated for the holidays. We enjoyed our meal from drinks, to apps, to entrees. Our server was excellent and other staff/management came by to check in on us as well, which was nice! If they have the bacon wrapped scallops available when you go, order them!
Very nice service, the Brussels sprouts were crispy and so tasty, that we had to have a 2nd order. Also enjoyed the appetizer crab cakes- we didn’t see the need in the bacon jam mix on the plate that each caked sat in, it was cold & flavors did not mix well but cakes were some of the best I’ve had. I am a shrimp & grits snob....I definitely recommend them. The fried green tomatoes the grits were places on was a creative & very compatible with this dish. I was pleasantly surprised. The sirloin was decent but the price reflected it.
Overall, very happy & would go back when we visit again.
The bartender was amazing! Very hospitable and welcoming! The short rib was excellent.
Great juicy short ribs with horseradish sauce.
Burger outstanding
Amazing service! Food was great! The atmosphere was great! Loved it!
Due to Covid, the restaurant was really quiet and safe for us to be on a date. Had a nice booth and a great waiter.
Our meals were wonderful. Topped the meal off with graham cracker ice cream and fresh brewed coffee. Yum!
Don't bother. Terrible service. Order messed up. Food mediocre.
The outdoor area is great during these COVID times. Very good server. No issues - basically a great time.
The food there is AMAZING! Since the new chef came it has become a wonderful dining experience!
first time visit and what a pleasant surprise - helpful, attentive staff, nice surroundings and the food was delicious! Best gazpacho ever! Sat outside for social distancing purposes and shade and fans made it ok despite the heat. Pleasant experience - will return.
Great food, great service. Location is within walking distance within the Towson area. If you drive tger is valet parking.
Warm, Friendly and excellent food creations. Can be lively from a sound level standpoint
Thanks all points covered. All staff in place and on point. Made for an attentive yet customer centric experience.
We have eaten at Towson Tavern and love the food. Friday night's dinner was no exception as the food was very good and presentation was great. The only downside was being seated near the bar which was so loud it was difficult to carry on a conversation at our table. Will certainly request to be seated in their separated dining area next time.
I took my girlfirend here for valentines day the past two years. The food is very good and it has a good environment. Definitely fancy enough to provide a romantic evening, however, nothing over-the-top. I do have a few complaints, while the service is pretty good, the food seems to take unusually long to be served, but that is my opinion. The menu is also VERY limited, offering about 8 entrees to choose from (at least that's how the valentines day menu was). Other than that, I am sure you will find the food to be worth it, they have great steaks and seafood and an outrageous wine selection.
We went there for Valentine's dinner. Our first time there, but friends recommended it. Wow are we happy we went! Our table was ready on time for our reservation. We arrived early, so spent some time at the bar (Say: "Happy hour"). The food was incredible, service was great' We will definitely return.
Delicious food. Good service especially considering it was Valentine’s Day.
Love this place! Great food and service! Dining room lights could be dimmer for a better ambiance!
Our waiter was unfriendly and even seemed to be annoyed that we didn’t all order alcohol during happy hour. He rarely checked on us and seemed to have an attitude when he did. We called in advance to ask about happy hour and then when we arrived we got two different stories about the specials. But the worst was the service.
It had been a while since we last dined at the Towson Tavern. The service was friendly and informative, we had a nice table tucked away from the bar, and the menu had several selections that made us think hard about what to eat. Give the portabella pizza and mussels a try. We'll dine at the Towson Tavern again.
awesome dinner. Server was the best, attentive, funny, and accommodating to a 10 yo. Food was excellent. We will be back.
We started with a salad and I'm so glad we did. They have several salad options which allowed my husband and I to each get something different. It was a bit pricey, but very fresh and not your boring house salad. I had the braised short ribs, which were very tender. I'm not typically a meat and white potato eater, but I figure a few times a year is ok. My husband had the shepherd's pie which was a special for restaurant week, but he just ordered the entrée, not the 3-course option. He was fond of it and it was enough for each of us to have leftovers the next day. It was rather slow for a Friday night as I'm guessing most students can't afford to eat here.
Brandi, our server, was a delight! The food was fantastic! One of my 2 favorite places to dine in Towson.
Enjoyed our Sunday Brunch! Food was great!
Great weekly specials. Need more variety on menu a of red meat and pork items.
