    Great recommendation! Loved the vibe, ambiance. Very comfortable spot- popped in for lunch and loved it. Great drink menu, great variety on menu, lots of tasty selections. I got the goat cheese salad- great choice and my husband got the fish tacos- exactly what he was craving. Service was excellent- can't wait to go back!

    Warm Goat Cheese Salad with Chicken

    Food was good, a bit overpriced. Staff were nice as well and lively atmosphere on a Saturday night with tvs and people

    Food is mediocre at best! I love the energy of the bar and restaurant but definitely pricey for food that is meh.

    French Onion Soup
    Maria G.

    I ordered to go, and I got French Onion soup, and a burger with Brussels sprouts. I honestly thought the container in my pictures was the side for my burger. (The burger was the only good part of my meal). The French Onion soup was served in the smallest container (usually used for Cole slaw, potato salad, etc). Never have I ever... The Brussels sprouts had no flavor, just greasy, and covered in oil. The only good part of the meal, as I said was the burger. I can't speak to the ambiance, as I never went it, and the service was fine. I know costs are up- but $12 for the French Onion soup is more than ridiculous.

    Tavern Tenderloins

    If I could give it a 3.5, I would, but since I can't, I'm rounding down. To start off, the place itself has ample amount of seating - high tops, low tops, and bar seating. There's also a patio but since it's winter it's not open. The staff was great and attentive as well. Now for the food. The french onion soup was very rich and flavorful and not too salty, but I don't know if it's $10 worth for the size you get. The Tavern Tenderloins were nicely cooked and the marinade tasted delicious. The green beans were nicely cooked, very basic ingredients from what I could taste, butter and garlic. The mashed potatoes however were cold and bland AF. There was absolutely no seasoning on those potatoes. The spicy Cajun chicken sandwich was not spicy at all. Honestly, the only thing I actually tasted was the guacamole which wasn't bad. The chicken itself was nicely fried and I have no complaints. The star of that dish were the fries. Crispy on the inside, soft on the inside, the perfect pub fries. I don't think I'd come back here to eat, but maybe I just didn't order the right thing. and staff were really great - attentive and nice. The french onion soup was really good too, but I don't know if it's $10 worth. Now for the entrees. We got the tavern tenderloins which had a great marinade

    Salmon and risotto
    Patrick F.

    Great temperature, risotto was creamy and tasty, salmon was well cooked. The only downside is the pesto, too much. Strong taste. The dish was well served, it is literally HALF CHICKEN, and mashed potatoes was very good.

    We had dinner here. Great environment but the food took a while to come out. Maybe they were busy but overall it was good food.

The rice side dish was so good we were both fighting over the last bites--who knew rice could cause marital discord? Drinks were on point too.

The space itself is absolutely beautiful, and our server was amazing--attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. We're already planning our next visit.

Reservations recommended we were seated at a beautiful table for two right near the bar and started off with a Pinot noir and a cabernet. Both wines were delightful. For appetizers we had the braised lamb crepe and the octopus... Both dishes were delicious, presented well with sauces to die for. Followed by the pasta dish and the duck. These were the best dinners of the year for us. The blending of flavors were fantastic and it was augmented by the owner coming over and talking to us about how the food was prepared. I won't bore you with all the details but the octopus is slow boiled for 5 hours.. complete with wine. Corks it was tender and delicious with the Mediterranean flair. We go out to eat our fair share from high end to diners anywhere. The food is well prepared and delicious... This was the top for the year! From the service to the presentation to the wine to the ambiance, everything is top notch here. I will provide a warning. You will drop a pretty penny if you partake in all the courses, but we thought it was well worth it. Thank you to the staff and ownership. We enjoyed our evening.. a true date night.

I say alcohol because it wasn't all wine but ... since it's a bit of a surprise in terms of what actually appears I'll just leave it at that. However, as to the food ... I'll give a taste, a flavor, a wisp of a whisper of the full culinary adventure. For complete details, see your local sous chef! Here's what we had. In the middle of my photo collage, a blood sausage slider with fennel/jalapeño sauce on toasted brioche bun. Then clockwise from top left - cornbread with maple glaze in a Barbie sized personal cast iron skillet; beet salad with goat cheese half spheres; a dessert tray of black apple cake with hay ice cream (yes, seriously), chamomile pot de creme and a duck fat beignet; an assortment of ice creams - fenugreek, fennel/maitake mushroom/burnt hazelnut (all tasted fabulous and in each you could taste the listed flavors); entree of duck and wild mushroom tart; white bean soup and finally a pasta dish of ravioli with two fillings. Just a note on what it would take to make it yourself. See that hexagonal white blob on the bottom row, middle pic? That's a potato foam. Forgive me for not recalling the full procedure but the prep is roughly 7 hours long. First, the cut potatoes are cooked in a sous vide for 2 hours so that no moisture is added to them. Then a succession of ricing, smoking, drying, undrying, mashing, placing in a foam machine that looked like a whipped cream dispenser and boom - a tiny dollop of potato. It tasted great. But man - that's a lot of effort for a mouthful of potato. I don't think I'll be trying it at home. Over two hours of eating and chatting. I brought a couple of my restaurant-based cartoons as my personal thanks for the meal and was shocked that Justin, their sommelier, had done a cartoon of his own ahead of time for me! Just stick to wine, Justin - I don't need any MORE competition with my magazine editors ... With Dylan ably providing the primary chef duties and Amaya and Justin handling the booze, the meal was a smashing success. The food pairings were masterfully chosen and timing of the dishes meant we were always primed for the next one. Although the succession of what I'd call dessert dishes made me start to feel like a Hobbit enjoying dessert, second dessert and then post seconds. As Anton Ego said in Ratatouille (and they have a cute Reme rat under glass on a shelf) "I shall be returning, hungry for more."

    Tried Sala Restobar in Beverly and overall it was a pretty underwhelming experience…read more We started with drinks -- I ordered a piña colada expecting it to be blended, but it came unblended. Nothing on the menu or from the server mentioned that, which was disappointing right away. When I told the server I didn't like it and wanted something else, he literally tilted his head and said, "ummm what do I tell the bartender?" That honestly rubbed me the wrong way -- just felt unprofessional and awkward. Jenny got a tequila cosmo, which was fine, nothing special. Food-wise, everything was just average. The bao buns were overcooked and the bun fell apart, though the flavor was decent. The pineapple fried rice was probably the best thing we had, but even that was just okay. We also had dumplings -- Jenny liked them, but I thought they were just alright. Dessert was the biggest miss. The blueberry cobbler was not good at all -- maybe a 3/10 at best. One thing that really didn't sit right was when we asked to split the tasting menu and were told no. That doesn't make much sense -- if people want to share, especially for a tasting menu, it should be allowed. Overall, nothing stood out in a good way, and between the service and the food, solid ambiance , it just wasn't a great experience.
