    Wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner! The team working the greenhouse was top notch and the food was delicious. Holiday nights in restaurants always have a potential for being a wreck and this was the complete opposite experience - everything was perfect. Oh and if you like a Sazerac, this is the bar to get it at!!

    Lovely, cozy, special place. Food was excellent, from artichoke hearts and Caesar salad to the chicken Marsala and rigatoni. Carrot cake was heavenly. Service staff was attentive and kind without being overwhelming. Will definitely be back — and often!

    I dined at The Grand Tavern last night with my wife and daughter. We selected our preferred location the bar to watch and talk to the expert mixologist, Erin, and the chefs’s magic in the kitchen. The real draw is the food, expertly prepared bistro food with a French flair, and the creative cocktails, as noted earlier. Dining at “The Grand” is an opportunity to go on a culinary adventure that elevates your mood and should not be missed.

    We loved our salads and soups. I had the tomato bisque and my husband had the French onion soup. Courtney was our sever and she truly stood out for being attentive on a busy Friday night and extremely professional. There was live music and a busy bar scene so not a quiet spot, but a great vibe.
