Tavern & Table is the dream child of Cecil & Dianne Crowley, Andy Palmer & Jeff Condon. After years of working together on various successful restaurant concepts, they wanted to bring together the very best aspects of fine dining and casual hospitality in a beautiful and comfortable setting. Tavern & Table is more than a restaurant, it was created to be a gathering place where people sit in comfort and share small plates for the table or enjoy a hearty meal. The bartenders know the fine art of cocktail making and their interest in flavor and presentation comes alive in not only in the food but in barrel aged cocktails that are created in-house.

Atmosphere was very good with low noise and clean restaurant. Waiter needs training in table manners (reached across tables awkwardly to set down food). Food looked and tasted like it came out of a box and was heated in a microwave. This was my first visit to a P.F. Chang's and expected a meal looking and tasting like it was made fresh to order. Perhaps my last visit.
