Four of us went a couple of weekends ago. It took a long time to even get acknowledged at the front door. Finally someone came over and said they would clear a table for us. Then the bartender decided to ask if we were all set. (For those of you that haven't been here, the door leads into the bar - in full view of the bartender.)

Finally got seated, the waitress gave us our menus and disappeared, not offering us a drink, water, or telling us the specials. When she did come back, she wanted to take our food order, we asked her what beer they had on draft, she didn't know and disappeared again. After we got our drinks, the service did get better (don't know, maybe it was the drinks! ). They have a great assortment of draft beers.

We ordered nachos, which came out timely, but were lukewarm at best. When our meals came, the were cold. We were going to get dessert, but it seemed as though the waitstaff was changing from lunch to dinner so we didn't bother.

All in all, not a good experience for us. If I go back it would be for a quick beer before I head down the street for Mexican.

Thumbs up

My husband and I returned to the Tavern this Halloween weekend. We had been there for the "soft" opening in May - tried again in July and were hoping that this time there they would get it right (after those 2 disappointments) Well, not only did they get it right - we went back 2 days later. The Prime Rib was delicious!! When you go for the All you can eat fish Friday dinner - when you got refills they gave you more of everything - fries, etc!! Their shrimp and sausage gumbo was just perfect. Going back 2 nights later my husband had the roast beef special (I believe it was roasted) - and it was so tender you could cut it with a butter knife. We were introduced by our waitress to the new manager one night and the chef the other.
We think they are back on track and we wish them well.

That is such good news. It's wonderful when a Phoenix rises.
