Reviews
Our server, Lucas, seemed disengaged and showed little personality or attentiveness throughout the meal (at least on this visit). For a $75+ check (three drinks, one appetizer, and three entrées) the overall experience including the food felt underwhelming and didn’t match the price point or expectations.
For mains, I got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with parmesan fries — incredible spice level and great crunch, and the fries were addicting. My wife ordered the Chipotle turkey melt as a wrap with the cauliflower on the side, and she really enjoyed both. Everything came out hot, fresh, and honestly just delicious across the board. Service was perfect as well!
Great food, great flavors — we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend.
The food was perfect! My sandwich was great, juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. It was also pretty spicy, tasted like a buffalo or hot sauce on the outside of the chicken. The server also was happy to switch out the blue cheese dressing for ranch dressing for me. The Southern Fried Chicken was also great and much better than my expectations! It had a crispy skin and very juicy meat, the sauce was so flavorful! I thought it tasted similar to a thanksgiving meal. The gravy was thick without being clumpy and had a great flavor. The mashed potatoes were thick and creamy and had no chunks or skin in it!
The jumbo tater tots were very good! SO CRISPY!! I loved the inside it was very creamy and tasted great with ranch as a dipping sauce, though it comes with ketchup and that also pairs well. We also got the fry rub wings (75¢ per wing!) and they were so good. Don’t judge by the picture they were so juicy inside! I was worried when they arrived because the outside looked so crispy and dark but it was just due to the spices on the skin. The meat tasted great and was moist while the skin was crispy and very tasty. I highly recommend going when they have the 75¢ wing deal!
Overall we loved the food and the service. I would definitely go again!
This restaurant is ironically set back off of route 9 in a plaza that seems to be otherwise vacant. Fortunately, the vacancy means there’s quite a bit of vegetation overgrowth. The views from the patio here are surprisingly lush and because of the plaza vacancy it is fairly quiet.
My celiac friend had a wonderful time as their menu caters heavily to gluten-free options that are actually edible! We got a burger and fries accompanied by chicken tenders and fries. Both were delicious and her meal didn’t taste gluten free but based on her lack of illness afterwards, it was definitely gluten free. We’re very happy this place exists and highly recommend checking it out!
Also, Dave our waiter was awesome and helped us very quickly move indoors when it began to rain. We are very appreciative of Dave.
We got the Tavern Chicken and Honey Mustard Crispy Chicken Salad w/Asparagus on the side and topped off with Tavern Cheesecake. Drink: Berry Lemonade White Sangria.
Yum yum yum, we will be back!
Great bar scene with lots of TV screens; very friendly service; plenty of parking. Kind of a funky location set well back off Route 9; put on your GPS so you don’t miss the turnoff.
Worth a visit
