    Pork chop
    Carol R.

    The shopping plaza that houses this restaurant is a very busy one. There is plenty of parking, but you may not be able to find a spot close to the eatery. The place has counter seating (with a bar?) and was a bit busy and bustling. There were 15 of us here on a week night for a special birthday dinner. We were given one main server who took all our orders: drinks, appetizers, and entrees. She had very little help and did most of it on her own. It was too much for one person; so, service was a bit slow. We found ourselves eating lots of bread just because we were hungry and needed our food. The first set of rolls that came out were hard as a rock. The second set was softer and more satisfying. We had appetizers that included steamed mussels and egg rolls. Both were good. The main dishes were all over the place with satisfaction levels. Notably, three orders of fish and chips were declared absolutely tasteless. The fish had a heavy breading and no flavor. A chicken dinner was palatable. The Cajun seafood fettuccine was good, so was the shrimp and mahi mahi scampi. There were several drinks ordered at the table and two sent back, including a strawberry daiquiri that came in a 3-inch-tall glass that didn't taste or look like a strawberry daiquiri. There were hits, and there were misses. But we expected better service and better food for the kind of money we spent.

    Cheers!

    Guess what! I just found out Village Tavern has Happy hour every day 4-6:30 for wine (and they have Riesling!) and top shelf cocktails! What?? Yes now: don't crowd the space! I'm meeting my Bookclub tonight at the restaurant side... but I'm def coming back for some of those tasty Happy- bites at the bar: I mean tavern nachos $8? Firecracker shrimp tacos $9? Sounds like something worth trying! Plus the ambiance is super smooth and classy, service is prompt and great: I think this is an allaround win! See you there! Enjoy! UPDATED WITH: we ate over on the restaurant side and I have added some pictures of what was ordered. Everything looked delicious and the wine happy hour prices are valid all night long at the restaurant!! Go enjoy

    Shrimp Scampi
    Melissa M.

    Stopped in on a Tuesday night for dinner around 7:30 pm. There was a 20 minute wait and we got sat about 25 minutes later. We were sat at a large booth. We ordered a sangria and shrimp scampi and the butcher steak. The sangria was a bit too sweet, and the scampi could have used a little more salt and seasoning. The steak was yummy as were the mashed potatoes. The food did take a very long time to come out, as did the drink, which seems to be a pattern for this location.

    It takes a Village to bring all the co-workers to Happy Hour but we succeeded and made it to the Village Tavern. Great choice! We had a large group and the staff was acommodating got us a table in a separate private area and promptly took our drink orders. Drinks were great from Margaritas to Dirty Martini and Aperol Spritz we started the Happy Hour with a bang while waiting for our appetizers. In no time, our appetizers arrived almost all at once which was great as we were all hungry. The bacon wrapped scallops were my favorite really tasty but the mussels and spring rolls were just as good too. The crab dip was ok. The artichoke spinach dip could use a bit less spinach and more artichokes. I left just when everyone else was about to order entrees. I'll have to come back to try dinner next time. Was my first time at The Village Tavern and overall was a nice experience. Restaurant has an elegant but casual vibe. Dimmed lights inside and very spacious. Outside seating area if you prefer outdoors. Staff was attentive and quick to bring our food and drinks.

    Mostly like this place. Went specifically for their ooey, gooey French onion soup! One of the best around! Have also come just for their creamy, dreamy New England clam chowder. Atmosphere always pleasant. Servers are great...and this place gets busy! But, I have to say the whole dining experience would be so much more enjoyable if diners were not almost forgotten after meal is served and have to actively work on getting some attention to order dessert (Killer warm vanilla butter cake enough for 3 people) or request the bill! I know they are busy! But, please, know this detracts from the total experience. I sometimes hesitate to come here for this reason....but I do come back! And, sorry, we jumped into the cake before I could get a pic!

    Ten Spice Glazed Salmon
    Melanie M.

    Went here for a big family dinner and it was nice. Ordered the Ten spice glazed Salmon with mash and asparagus. I could say it was ok, i feel like the mash could've been made a little thicker and with more flavor. Our waitress was great but felt like it was a lot for her since we were about 20 people putting in orders. When it came to the bill it was a bit of a hassle separating orders by groups since only 4 cards were being accepted. Overall it wasn't bad and if i return would try a different menu item.

    Decent Yelp reviews. Opposite experience. Greasy food and terrible cocktails. Nothing here was good.

    Shrimp tacos

    Great spot for Happy Hour! The bar is always packed. Food is great and so is the service.

    Lemon drop shot
    Troy C.

    I have never been to Village tavern for happy hour before and I am so shocked I haven't because it blew away my expectations! They have fantastic specials to include wines, and a ton of shelf alcohols on special. They also have a very spacious and inviting bar. It's dimly lit which is nice for a change and feels more welcoming. They also have a fantastic spread of food to order on HH as well!! To start off I got a bacardi and coke! Fantastic choice it was a nice level of intensity and a great deal. We then ordered lemon drop shots which came out very well too. For food I ordered the cheesesteak springrolls. Wow were they good!! They came sliced in half and they had a special sauce to dip them in. They were crispy and crunchy and tasted super fresh. I would order these every time I go! The nachos are also delicious and come with a large portion great for sharing as well. They have so many other foods I definitely want to try something different next time, but I loved what I ordered so it will be hard to switch. Can't wait to come back again soon! Really great experience and Happy Hour I cannot recommend enough!

    Every time... Great Martinis... Great pinot noirs.... Great mussels ... Great ambience... I recommend it.

    Calamari
    Marsh C.

    the spring rolls were so good! They serve it with a salad and whatever they put on the salad was so good we ordered another one. The calamari and homemade chips were also very good. I also recommend the brick chicken

    Butcher's Steak, sweet potato fries, and the shrimp scampi
    Tom C.

    Always have a good experience every time I come here. Service was on point but not intrusive, and the place itself is very nice/cozy inside. Food here is always good, I opted for a Butcher's steak and shawty got the shrimp scampi. Both were awesome and they gave me a perfect medium rare on the steak. Definitely recommend, but it is a bit pricey if you get appetizers and drinks.

    Brunch also on Saturday? Just found out only on Sunday.. not happy

    Only on Sunday. We were upset the Saturday we went and they were closed.

    Can men wear shorts?

    Yep

    Does the restaurant have a private room for events?

    I have been there several times with a group (10+). There is not a separate room but they will use the area behind the hostess station or the area at the far right (facing the hostess station) against the windows. It's worked for my groups. Good… 

    Is it dog friendly?

    Yes they are welcome on the patio. I have a certified service dog, so I am allowed to bring him inside the restaurant. However, he is incredibly well behaved and trained so as to be nearly invisible. Our server didn't know we had a 105 pound… 

    Opened Thanksgiving Day?

    Sorry, they will be closed on Thanksgiving Day.

    At what time is the happy hour on Monday?

    Happy Hour is Monday thru Friday 4-7 pm...

    Do they have live music?

    No live music.

So many options! Here's what I had: Skoobies Myles Mahi Sandwich Conch & Shrimp Fritters Oreo Cheesecake Everything was amazing! I cant wait to come back and try more from the menu! Are you a seafood lover? #LucsSeafoodGrill #Seafood #HiddenGem LetsDrinkz #EatzWithSweetz #LetsEatz

    I was extremely disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. There was a special on the menu…read morethat was made to order and not pre-seasoned or pre-made. I politely asked if the seasoning could simply be left off due to an allergy, and my request was refused. Rather than accommodating a simple dietary restriction, I was told that the dish wouldn't taste the way the chef intended. While I understand wanting to preserve the intended flavor, customer health and safety should come first--especially when dealing with allergies. I find it concerning that no effort was made to accommodate a reasonable request or even ask about the severity of the allergy. In today's restaurant industry, flexibility and customer care are important. Unfortunately, I found the service to be very unaccommodating, and given the high prices, I expected much better. I will not be returning.
