With the opening of Taverna, Platinum Dining Group brings to life its highly anticipated version of the “neighborhood gathering place.” Rustic and simple in conception but well crafted and high minded in execution, Taverna brings to Newark a casual sophistication that sees reclaimed wood and exposed brick on the wall. Polished marble rest atop the overstretched bar which boasts eighteen draft beers and the state’s first ever “tapped wine” system. A seemingly humble menu is carefully considered with homemade pastas, coal-fired pizzas, and daily “features” that will bring a smile to the most discerning grandmother’s face.**A NOTE FROM THE RESTAURANT**Reservations are not required. We welcome walk-ins.Please contact us directly at 302-444-4334 , if desired reservation time is unavailable or the party size is larger than 6.

I was here with a business client and this was a great place to eat a business lunch. Two of the three of us had the special, which was rigatoni and chicken in a marsala sauce. It was very tasty.

We were welcomed the minute we came in the door. Everyone was friendly and accommodated my request for a table change ( I wanted near the front). Our waiter was attentive. The chef’s specials were delicious. I had scallops and a squash risotto. My husband had fresh seafood and vegetable pasta. Both portions were generous. The wine selections were excellent. We will definitely go back again.
