Donald is a professional and knowledgeable server. He made sure everything was well taken care of. Entrees were veal parm with pasta and a customized chicken and shrimp tomato sauce pasta. Dessert was a chocolate mousse.

The food is delicious the service is amazing and I loved seeing kids there enjoying well made pizza. It can be very Romantic and moody or fun and open if you sit at the front. Good wine selection and our server was so attractive and friendly. Loved the whole experience!

Really really tasty food and great service! My friend and I had a great time with some really great meals. The low lighting was really nice and the booth was comfortable so it was also a great sensory experience for me.

Went early in the evening for dinner and had the carbonara and the lobster ravioli. The ravioli was amazing and super rich and flavourful. The carbonara was huge and really creamy. The burrata bruschetta isn’t actually burrata but is just bruschetta with stracciatella cheese on top. I was excited for ... burrata so I was a little disappointed when it wasn’t the same as described on the menu. I probably wouldn’t get it again. Service was good and prompt and we were overall very happy and will return to try other menu items. Read more

I recently dined at Taverna and ordered the agnello platter. The lamb was cooked perfectly and the portion size was generous. The service was excellent, with knowledgeable staff. However, there were a lot of scratches on the plates. Overall, a great dining experience at Taverna. I recommend it for delicious ... Mediterranean food. Four stars! Read more
