I recently dined at Taverna and had a genuinely pleasant experience. I'll start with the service…read more The waiter was attentive throughout the evening and he paid special attention to my shellfish allergy. Also, if you've read my prior reviews, you know I always want my water glass filled and the waiter made sure that was the case. It's a small detail that added to the overall comfort of the meal. The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, creating a relaxed setting for dinner. The food was well-prepared and flavorful. The veal meatballs were tender, the olive oil and sun-dried tomato dip for the bread was unique and yummy, and the mushroom agnolotti stood out as especially delicious. In fact, I can't wait to go back and have it again. Also, since it was Valentines weekend they added a cute little lips design on top of my drink. Another memorable touch was the mini firework placed on the butterscotch custard to celebrate my birthday. It added a bit of fun to the end of the meal and made the occasion feel special. My partner had the cannoli for dessert and it was definitely enough for two! Overall, Taverna delivered a very enjoyable dining experience, and I would be happy to return.

I was in the neighborhood for a work trip and had a late train back to Baltimore so I popped into…read moreTaverna for some dinner and to finish some work. They sell a lot of their own merch so that's what you first see when you walk in. They have a bar area as well. The dining area towards the back is very spacious. And they have seating to accommodate small-large groups. The dim lighting adds to the calm vibe of the restaurant. The service is so fast. I feel like every item came out so quickly. And the servers checked in pretty frequently to clear the table, ask you if you need another drink, dessert, etc. it did feel a bit rushed. As a starter they give you their Ciabatta bread and the sun-dried tomato oil. The oil was DELICIOUS. I literally bought a jar to take home. For my drink I got the Fresca. It was good, very refreshing. For my entree I got the Linguini & Clams. It was good, could've used a bit more salt but the sauce was good. For desert I got the boozy affogato and it was delish. Would definitely dine here again if I'm ever in the area.

The grilled cheese was different than what other places offer and it did not disappoint- Both were great! We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Loved the atmosphere here.

We wanted to sit at the bar, which was pretty crowded, but we were able to get seats. Shelby, the bartender, was friendly, and we started with crispy Brussels sprouts, which were tasty with a chipotle dipping sauce. We also ordered the pork tenderloin and a grouper special served on grilled watermelon, which of course, I had to try. The food was creative, original, and delicious. We definitely want to try the brunch menu.

The sweet potato fries was the highlight of the meal for me. The sandwich was so so. My husband ordered the crabcake that was served on a bed of rice. The crab cake was delicious, but it seemed a little odd to serve it on rice. The other couple seemed to be happy with their meals. One ordered a steak and the other the beef bourguignon. We noticed they have a happy hour menu. I would definitely go back to try that. The service was great and the ambience was very nice. There was also live music when we arrived, which was a nice touch.

I enjoyed the bacon and cheese potato kegs. My wife and I split the BLT and grilled cheese. Hers came with a side salad mine with shoe string fries. My son has the salad. Salmon was very good, it was vodka cured; bloodline and skin removed (+++)! Grain was pretty busy for mid-afternoon on a Sunday. Modern pub/ sports pub feel. Phillies game on the TVs. Music playing. Service was OK. My one pet peeve is allowing servers to leave dirty dishes and empty glasses on the table. And our server, although attentive, did not clear any dishes or glasses. Thank god I don't have epilepsy, the light over our table kept blinking non-stop. Plenty of off street parking for patrons. Lots of varied seating, both indoor and outdoor. See warning sign in my pics (haha). As far as prices, they are in line with any other places, as far as these other reviews that said it is excessively expensive, not true. Lunches are $15-20. Apps are a little pricey. Nice beer selection in the $8 ish range. Forgot I wanted to get a pan dessert, next time. I paid using InKind and got a nice discount.

Not surprising, as on holiday weekends most students go home so the town isn't crowded like a usual week. Service was friendly, fast and attentive. Everyone's meals were very good, except for mine. I made a bad choice. Skip the hot honey chicken over donuts brunch item. Its nothing more than 3 chicken fingers over what tasted like a couple of dry entemann's donuts. (Missed opportunity..theres a greta bakery across the street..should get fresh glazed donuts from them. The donuts ruined the dish. Other meals were very good. Easter quiche special with hollandaise sauce and fried potatoes was delicious, although the size of quiche slices was kind of small. Burrata avocado toast was great, and so was their cheese omelette. It was perfect dining for us as we didn't want a heavy, upscale meal at 1:30 in the afternoon. Will definitely come back next time we are in town for dinner and drinks.

Unfortunately, the experience did not meet those expectations. My pasta was served cold, and my husband's steak was overcooked. In addition, it took approximately 20 minutes to receive our after-dinner coffee. We were informed that the delay was due to a new coffee machine that staff members did not yet know how to operate. Given our history of positive experiences at your restaurant, this visit was particularly disappointing.
