I arrived at 4:15 with a friend. We were seated for 15 minutes before we received water or a server. When it finally arrived, the food was very good, particularly the soups. However, the servers seemed overworked and confused about their assignments. The cheesecake we shared for dessert was also excellent, but it took forever to arrive. I'm unsure if they were short-staffed or if this is the norm. The bar was beautiful and I would try it again.

The Tavern was the perfect choice for our mid-week birthday celebration. The additions to the fall menu are delicious with particular favorites: the Spinach & Artichoke Dip and Acorn Squash Skins. Service was warm, welcoming and efficient and we appreciated Chef Alex’s table-side visit. We’ll be back!
