The National Tavern

The National Tavern is a terrific place for drinks, for drinks and pizza, or for drinks and dinner.
The Tavern offers a full bar. It includes several drinks developed by the head bartender, Freddie. Freddie – and his drinks – are excellent.
The Tavern also features tapas plates, pizza, and a standard menu. We are usually with a group; we order a number of tapas plates and sample the variety. My personal favorite is the charred octopus. The charred taste enhances the delicate octopus.
We have tried four of the pizzas. The crust is perfect. The cheese and other ingredients are top quality.
The standard menu items range from Asian noodles to steaks. I have not tried many of these. However, those with our group who have tried them report that they are excellent.
There is another reason why the Tavern is a great place to spend an afternoon or an evening. Everyone in the place is upbeat and cheerful. We rarely leave without having made new friends.
We visit the Tavern at least once or twice each weekend. I highly recommend it.

Great Restaurant Experience!!! Service was friendly, helpful and fast! Food is really great! Chef seems very concerned with local, highest quality ingredients and it shows! AND you can order in such a way that there are smaller orders for those of us who can’t eat too much, but plenty for those who do. There was nothing they could have done better! Not sure what happened for those not so good reviewers… this is a really great place for a great meal and great experience!!!

Wow… Very disappointed … I will never step foot in this place again. Worst service in my life, was spoken to very rudely by management for making a request. So my money will not go to fatten there pockets. By the way do not make any special request, they will not accommodate you. They do have great bar service and that is all they have going for them.
