Walter was nearly psychic in rendering his service. The whole crew swam like fish and provided meaningful, engaging, and transparent service. Better food and drinks that we expected made the visit perfect. Top to bottom, my strongest recommendation.

They over cooked my ilet mignon. It was totally flavorless and dry. Never saw my server again after I irdered. Loudest bar I’ve ever been in. Had to ask to b reseated…when I made a dinner rez, had no idea it’d be at a hightop in the bar where I was jostled and shouted over. I asked for standard seating. Huge disappointment on what was supposed to be a special evening. Food was too terrible to finish. Iced tea from a machine. Not making this up…gross. So left and went to Carve on the corner and had a slice and some freshly brewed iced tea for exactly 1/5th of what I paid at the tavern.

we went for pre theater brunch. the menu on the web site was different then what they actually offered. there was no "brunch" food, altho the web page indicated brunch was served on Wednesday. The service was awful. the food indifferent. very over priced and bad value.
