For centuries, a taverna has been a neighborhood gathering place where friends can meet to eat, drink and enjoy life. Taverna co-founders Thanasis Pashalidis and Hakan Bala were raised with a shared ethical compass, which the Greeks call "philotimo" or "love of honor". Family and friends are their ingredients of life, and they believe that nutrition, happiness and health are all directly correlated. Both partners have been culturally influenced by the remedies of the old world and incorporate them into the lifestyle of Taverna. Both have an "ethos" that drives them and inspires others to live fully, which they consider the flavor of life's success. They understand that life is to be enjoyed and that time is of the essence. They are aware that every day is a gift. Taverna has been created to make people happy and feel alive.

    We likes the food and the server was nice BUT the kitchen must have been super backed up. It took ages between appetizer and the pastas. And ages again between pasta/pizza and the mains. We ate quickly but after ordering just a single soft serve and asking for the check, we had been at the table for 2 hours. I think there was 20-30 minutes between appetizer and pizza, and similarly between pizza and main. This was all served family style so there was no need to give us THAT much time, which makes me think it was understaffing at the kitchen. Probably should try coming here on a weekday instead. Fresh crab pasta was wonderful, as was suppli. For the price and portion size though, I hope their kitchen speed can improve.

    Only problems: service was a little tough to get after the food came. And the fries aren’t very good. But the fried fish is amazing.
