   Visit really exceeded expectations. Kelly and Fernando were excellent and so much fun. Carlos (manager) stopped by to say hello and to ask how service was. Very enjoyable evening.

   Our server Joe made the evening. He was knowledgeable, funny and timely with his service. The food was delicious and he gave us wonderful recommendations. The new location is very nice and overall, we had an excellent dining experience.

   We recently visited Tavern on Rush for a Christmas Eve lunch and had an absolutely delightful experience! We sat in the bar area, which had a warm and inviting ambiance. The service was top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff who made sure our afternoon was memorable. We started with the calamari appetizer, which was perfectly crispy and flavorful. For our main courses, we enjoyed a variety of dishes: the tuna tartare was fresh and delicious, the chicken sandwich was flavorful and juicy, the shrimp pasta was rich and satisfying, and the salmon BLT was a unique and tasty twist on a classic. The portions were generous, and the flavors were spot-on. The noise level was comfortable, making our meal even more enjoyable. However, the only downsides were that the menu felt somewhat limited and one of our plates was dirty. Overall, Tavern on Rush is a fantastic choice for a casual yet memorable meal.

   After going to Tavern on Rush for years (we loved it!) this was a huge disappointment The environment was awful in the small room with the fireplace Tv. I didn’t know about upstairs as this was my first visit -Alto nicer way too loud for fine dining restaurant. The was no drink list, no prices , no Kim Crawford , the food was way too expensive for what we got. Everything was ala cart. Food was ok. There was only one server Joe who was trying to do a heck Of a job. 5 stars for him. And the room was filled Next time when o plan a special dinner I would never go to a place sight unseen. No way to make it up. My guest was from out of town My fault for not getting my own preview

   The food some of the best restaurant food I've had. The salmon entree? Wow! The restaurant was incredibly loud and difficult to have a conversation. Our server? Pffft. It seemed he would rather have been someplace else. He made an almost hidden roll of the eyes when none of us wanted any alcohol. We saw him rarely during the meal, and when he did appear at our table, he was rushed and always had somewhere else to be. Will I return? Maybe. Maybe not.

   Great food from this legacy tavern. Service is fine but can be quite noisy when busy, which is most of the time. The open concept floor plan adds to the noisy level.

    You would think reopening would bring better food than the last Tavern. Mediocre steak, overly spiced lobster pasta, tough meatball. We also ordered the ricotta (way too sweet and over whipped). Our server was great… not a single complaint with him. The food, different story.
