    My martini glass had lipstick stains on the rim. The waiter had an attitude toward me when I showed him the lipstick stains on the glass. The service didn’t come over to take our order until 20 min in. The table next to us ordered and received their food before we even received our drinks. We were waiting for one hour to receive our appetizer but at that point decided to get up and leave.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Judging by your review the experience you had at Tavern definitely fell way short of the type of quality and service we aim to provide to our guests. There are no excuses for any of the above which you and your guest experienced. Cleanliness and high service standards are at the top of our priority list, and I am beyond sorry we fell short on your visit. I would absolutely appreciate further details from your visit so we can try and ensure this type of dining experience never happens again. Mostly our team would love the chance to make a second first impression. We truly want the opportunity to make good on the quality of service you, our guest, deserve. Please reach out.

    We were really disappointed with this new version of Tavern on Rush. The space is uninspired, with a ‘80s feel. Bathroom - terrible. No dividers between the urinals and too close together. Carpeting on the stairway to the restrooms was filthy and worn. Food was just okay. With so many other great places to eat nearby, we won’t be back.

    Peter, I'm sorry to hear that your experience at Tavern on Rush didn't meet your expectations. Our space was completely gutted and redesigned to have a much more contemporary feel to it. Im sorry you did not find the space enjoyable. Carpeting on the stairwell was installed new during remodel and was put there to give more traction for guests utilizing the stairs(100% with safety in mind). While this is a very high traffic area, you are right, this should be kept as clean as possible. We will stay more vigilant about this. If you wouldn't mind sending me a message about your food selections this day, I would love to hear how and where we could improve on specific dishes. We do thank you for your feedback and truly hope we have another chance to serve you. Margo & The Management Team

    I am very sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your recent experience at Tavern. We truly do take pride in our food and it's disappointing to hear that it didn't meet any of your expectations. If you wouldn't mind, I would actually like more feedback about what your food selections were and what you found disappointing about each dish. We do take all feedback into account, even the bad stuff, as it's the only way for us to adjust and improve. We would like to know where exactly it is we fell short and what you feel is just not worth your dollar. We want our guests to feel like that not only did they have an had outstanding meal but that it was worth the price point as well. We appreciate your input. - Margo and The Management Team

    We went for lunch and we had a lovely experience. We had the Italian Ceviche and Asian salad. It was delicious! The service was excellent, always there and checking in without being intrusive. They even surprised my friend with a complimentary birthday cake dessert with a candle. They heard us talking about her birthday. We will definitely return! We’re glad they are back!
