• American • Berwyn
Booked 2 times today
Lavergne’s Tavern opened in June, 2016 at the corner of Windsor and East Avenues in the old Garv’s Inn location, a staple in Berwyn since the ’60s. The tin ceiling and hardwood floors are restored, and the storied Garv’s Inn bar is rebuilt from scratch using reclaimed black walnut. A combination of high-top bar seating and lower tables help keep the atmosphere friendly to both families and those looking to join a date or friends for a night out.Led by Executive Chef, Mark Downing, the menu is accessible but elevated. Items are priced from $6-$9 for shareable appetizers to entrées at around $14-$16. The Italian Beef Egg Roll, filled with Italian beef, giardiniera, spicy queso, Monterey jack cheese, and au jus dipping sauce is, in one customer’s words, “life changing.”

    We can't get enough of this neighborhood gem. Crab Cake and Octopus appetizers were a great start. Chianti Pear salad led us into dinner of Chicken Saltimbocca and Veal Marsala. Both were delicious. Evon (our waiter) was attentive as always. We always enjoy having Jose and Paco stop by our table during our visit. Plan on seeing you soon!

    The food was delicious, and I appreciated the opportunity to choose a keto friendly dish. The keto bowl is quite tasty, and very unique! It’s nice that there are a variety of proteins available for this dish. I do wish there were more keto friendly options, but having this one is definitely a plus. Our server, Robert, was, as always, very attentive and quite friendly. Unfortunately, because of the rain, we had to dine indoors, which can be very loud. I love the patio area, though. Overall, I would label this a neighborhood gem!
