We stopped for a drink at the end of our evening out. Drinks were exceptional and our server, Julia, was the best!

We had a very disappointing lunch today. The Cobb salad I got had hardly any toppings for $18 and my husband ordered the chicken and waffles for $24 and was so disappointed in the taste and portion of the food. His chicken was dry and overcooked and the waffles weren't very good either. The corn fritters that came with his meal had a strange aftertaste so he didn't eat them. The meal was not worth $24 my any means and my salad has the tiniest portion of chicken and toppings I have ever had for a Cobb salad. Ironically when I asked the waiter about the salad before ordering he said how huge it was so I was thinking it would be great and filling. The service today was so slow and there were only two other tables when we got there. Sadly, there are so many good restaurants in downtown Alpharetta I don't see us returning here again. It has definitely gone down in quality. read more

Wasn't impressed, seems Mr target who is the host of the ever popular tv show "Bar Rescue" need to come back to Atlanta and tweak this operation to focus on the service standards. Let's take it from the top... shall we?... We arrived at taffeta tavern around noon to meet up with our son and his SO for a lunch. Needless to say we always show up early to take a seat at the bar and have a drink. Since we knew they make a smoky old fashioned. We decided to try. As you can see from The video from mixing to pouring. We felt that the time for the smoke to permeate the beverage was not long enough. The bartender was more interested in her cell conversation than entertaining us mind you there were only 6 people at the bar including us. It was NOT busy, but the text was more important. Then I comes the kids, we were immediately seated and the server greeted us and offered us drinks. Then for another long while (mind you the restaurant was not busy, but I definitely think they were short staffed) we placed our orders and we wait. after a slight lull, our drinks were almost consumed, but just in time the food came. I know Taffwr wouldn't be please with the ticket times. However it was good. My roast beef sandwich came out nice, the Caramelized onions were the highlight of the sandwich also the au jus. Noting incredible but a good sandwich. The pork belly was good but the coleslaw that adorned it was off in flavor, too Much celery seeds to the liking. The salad came out unremarkable. But good. Won't come back for lunch but may (operative word) come out for dinner. read more

Alpharetta is a really nice place in general.. and the location of this restaurant was really in a desirable area. The Ambiance was just gorgeous. Parking was chaotic. I would suggest going earlier in the day if you don't like the crowd. The food and drinks were tasty. Our server was knowledgeable and super friendly. I would definitely return. read more

Pearl was absolutely phenomenal. So personable, respectful and very attentive. She was so much fun to talk to and we couldn't have had a better time! read more

First and last time. It's such a great location facing Main Street. Had such high hopes. The menu is very typical American food, burgers, handhelds, apps but nothing too different or chefy. Hubby' ordered a burger and fries. Fries were cold and were a little stale. If was a BBQ burger and the sauce was kinda thin. Burger was passable. My Chicken entree reminded me of something from a nursing home. Chicken was supposed to be herbed with mashed potatoes and green beans. The chicken was covered in a bland gravy, mashed potato's were overly salty and very thin. The green beans were so tough and overcooked that they were inedible. They took off one of our meals when we told them how disappointed we were. There are so many good places in city center that this place needs to step up the food game if they are gonna make it. The waiter was nice enough. read more

Walked in for a late night bite with friends and were seated immediately outside. No problem there until we were never greeted at our table by a server. We were only told by the host that our tab would include 20% gratuity for late night service.... Gratuity for what you may ask?? We received no service. read more

Natalia was the BEST server. She recommended great drinks & menu items! She was awesome, I haven't had this high level of service in a long time. She was awesome & the manager on duty Chase was also awesome I'll be back next week! Sunny L. read more

Very cool space, entertaining cocktails, and delicious food! My sister & her husband brought my husband and I here when we were visiting and we had such a good time! We ordered the cocktail flight to share, then each of us got our own cocktails, and some food. Every cocktail we had was unique, strong, and very tasty. I loved my s'mores martini - it even came with a s'more on the side! Everyone else was very happy with their cocktails too. For food, I got a salad with a delicious honey mustard / Dijon dressing - can't quite remember what it was but I was very impressed with the flavor! I'd love to come back here whenever I'm back in Alpharetta! read more

Pearl was an amazing server! Very attentive and knowledgeable. The food and drinks are really good. Would definitely recommend coming here.

I'm giving five stars to my server Natalia! The food missed a bit. But, she substituted a burger that was really good! I'll go back!

Pearl was the best server ever! Food was amazing came for a birthday dinner, and it was perfect! Definitely recommend!

For starters, we were starving. So honestly anything would have gotten 5 stars, but I truly believe Taffer's blew us away. We ordered three appetizers. Did I mention we were starving? 5/5. I don't know if it was all the food or the shared cocktail flight, but we were all napping the rest of the afternoon. I can't wait to go back! read more

Taffer's has a great atmosphere and excellent food.. The service is exceptional. I highly recommend.

I've been to Taffer's Tavern a few times, but this is my first review. I decided to bring family and friends here for a dinner to celebrate my twin daughters' birthday. Emma, the hostess, greeted us when we entered. There were 8 people in our party, and we were seated at one of the larger tables in the middle of the restaurant. Kendra, our server, was friendly and very attentive. She took everybody's order and kept coming back to check on us frequently. I had ordered a soft drink, and she ensured that I had timely refills all night long. While Kendra's service was very good, the food, for the most part, was great. We tried a number of starters, including the pork belly skewers, tot roast fries, and hot tavern pretzel. Each appetizer was unique and very flavorful. Most of my family ordered different entrees, so I had the chance to try the roast beef au jus sandwich, braised short rib, steak frites, penne ala vodka, and spicy chicken sandwich. The roast beef au jus sandwich is amazing. Dipping the ciabatta bread, tender roast beef and Swiss cheese in the au jus practically melts in your mouth. The fries were hot and well-salted. They come with a side of velvety truffle parmesan mousse which is possibly the best tasting thing on the entire menu. The braised short rib is very tender and soaked in a rich demi-glace sauce. It comes with creamy mashed potatoes. It's not the largest piece of meat, but it's definitely tender and flavorful. One of my guests ordered the steak frites. It's described as a juicy flat iron steak, cooked medium rare, sliced and topped with garlic butter. My guest did not like the steak. I tried it, and I agreed. It was dry, tough, chewy and full of fat. I told Kendra my guest didn't like the steak. Kendra offered to have another steak prepared. The second steak was pretty much the same. So, while it sounds amazing on the menu, I would not recommend ordering the steak frites. It's very disappointing, and other reviews state something similar. Another menu item, your original burger, sounds good, especially when ordering it from a "tavern". However, when I asked Kendra about the burger, the look on her face told me to NOT order the burger. She is not the only person who told me something similar at the restaurant. In terms of timing, our drinks were served in a reasonable amount of time, we waited a little too long for the appetizers (15+ minutes), but the entrees came out super fast. Wesley, one of the bartenders, made a number of cool, crafty cocktails for us to enjoy. We tried the Moscow Mule, Boca Morada, Bubble², and Taffer's Tasters. The Bubble² is worth ordering just to see the server create this smoking bubble of sparkling wine on top of the citrus flavored drink. If you can't decide which cocktail to try, then the Taffer's Tasters is a great option because you get to try a sampler of four of their most popular cocktails, one each of vodka, rum, tequila, and whiskey, including Blue Mist, Tropical Bliss, Taffer's Tavern Tea, and Boca Morada. Taffer's Tavern is definitely a fun, loud, trendy spot in the Alpharetta area. Great food and a diverse cocktail offering. Kendra provided really good service. The food, excluding the steak and spicy chicken sandwich, was amazing. In looking at some of the other reviews with lower scores, most have a consistent theme. It appeared as though there was no manager in the restaurant. For us, I saw Nick, the manager, walking around the restaurant most of the night. He passed by our table multiple times. There were 8 of us at one of the larger tables in the middle of the dining room, and we spent around $400 on crafted cocktails, starters, sandwiches, entree plates and desserts. During the 2 hours we spent in Taffer's Tavern, Nick never stopped by our table to simply check on our satisfaction, thank us or invite us to return. So, while I would definitely recommend the restaurant based upon Kendra's service and the taste of the food, I question whether management truly appreciates their customers.

So I have gone several times. The location is great, parking is easily accessible and right next to the restaurant. The atmosphere has dark ambient bar lighting and the decor is modern. Lots of booths. Cool bar with bar lighting. The staff is great, very good service. But.... My favorite part that I want to highlight is that they have a ripples printer which prints a design on to the top of your beer foam. You just download the ripples app, locate the bar, upload your design and it syncs to the machine, then you just order your beer, tell your server about your design and wala, you have your design on your beer foam. I definitely recommend. read more

This place had a good atmosphere for what we were looking for! Very chill. Somewhere between sports bar and nicer restaurant. The truffle fries were probably some of the best I've had! No complaints about our entrees. Both were good but nothing super special. Our waiter was great and had a very good energy. read more

Well the ambiance of this place is nice, the seating and location is the middle of everything. The food is lacking in flavor. I had the truffle fries and the mushroom sauce was just weird. The macaroni and cheese was dry and lacked seasoning. The Buffalo chicken flatbread we wasn't tasty but it was more of a meal than an appetizer to me. It was too messy to a sharing dish. Would I come back? Probably not. Service was great but the food was subpar. read more

Nick is incredible and made our dinner experience great. We come here often and will definitely be coming back because of him!

Nyasia was amazing to hang out with at the bar. The service was to notch! We'll certainly be back.

They did not have jalapeño poppers available. They were still prepping them. Prepping is supposed to be done BEFORE you open not after you ARE open. HUGE FAIL read more
