Never a bad view of the city skyline. Food and service were great. The manager came by the table and offered an even better view than we already had, we gladly accepted. We eat there for special occasions. We also attended a beautiful wedding there last summer, which was spectacular!

The food was amazing. The atmosphere was excellent with great service and friendly and knowledgeable staff. Price the food before you go so you are not surprised by the bill. The quality of the food was worth the money for us. But it will be a dinner to save for.

Our server was so so lovely. The food was absolutely unreal. I had the scallops and my girlfriend had the pumpkin gnocchi and it was one of the best meals we’ve ever had. The staff was very accommodating, and they even surprised us with a dessert for our anniversary. I would highly recommend goldfinch Tavern to anyone wanting to have a great dining experience.
