We frequent this place a lot in the summer. The vibe in winter was a little quieter on a Monday night in January. It was a really nice ambience for a date night. Service and food was great.

I absolutely and utterly hate to do this: We have been to beach Tavern many times over the past few years… Usually in spring and summer. We thought it would be a nice chill way to ring in the new year with an early dinner with our best couple friend. I don’t know what was going on with our server, and I am a very compassionate person who works in the service industry so I know we all have bad days. We had 630 dinner reservations so it’s not even like we were in the middle of a rush. From when she first came over to our table she made it clear how unhappy and she was. We tried to joke with her to make her more comfortable and that didn’t seem to do anything. Everything we requested, from salt to more water to Bread was forgotten and needed at least 2 to 3 reminders. Took forever to get our order in. when the order came EVERYTHING came at once: soups appetizers and entrées. Is that the fault of the server or the kitchen? I don’t know but it was ridiculous. The table was overflowing with food and much of it was not enjoyed because much of it had to be eaten cold. When we pointed this out to the server her response was “yeah that’s weird“. The whole night there was lots of eye rolling and lots of negativity. Again I will remind you: I work for a living and we all have really really crappy days. and it’s even OK if your table knows that you are not at your best. But to open and verbally vent to us, makes so many mistakes without explanation or apology… Honestly it was a waste of a night out as we all left irritated. I don’t know what has to go on there for your servers to be a better caliber but the four of us will literally not be coming back simply based on that experience Oh yeah: our husbands wanted to split the bill between two credit cards, and when she brought the receipts each credit card had the full suggested tip amount and not the tip based on the 50% split. Not cool

Food was pretty good. Ordered tuna sandwich and asked not to be blackened. It was blackened, fries for myself and another order were so salty the were not edible. Appetizers were great, and the other meals were very good. I keep coming back but they never hit it out of the park with a complete meal.
