A landmark experience. A dining and drinking destination. A historic tradition. Since its inception, the Kaufman House has been a gathering place for travelers, neighbors and friends. Today, Kaufman Tavern continues and updates the tradition, providing a warm welcome, restorative libations and a fun, comfortable, exquisite dining experience. The food is the real star here: a top-notch, scratch-made, local, eco-friendly and--most importantly--delicious dining experience. Our menu reflects the best of the US and the bounty of our region. Cajun and creole. Northern and Southern. The East and West coasts and beyond. This is hand made, lovingly crafted, just plain good food. Kaufman Tavern is new American cuisine at its finest.

    We visited on a Sunday night so the restaurant was a bit quieter than usual. The service was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and the presentation was really attractive. We will definitely be back.

    Enjoyed a very good meal at the Kaufman Tavern. The food, drinks and service were excellent, and we really appreciated the atmosphere in the wine cellar.

    My wife and I have been to Kaufamn Tavern numerous times. Last night seemed a little off. Maybe short staffed. Service little slow and our entree’s were over cooked. Mentioned to manager who was very attentive and willing to correct but wanted them to know so they could correct. We will return.

    I had the wild mushroom and libster risotto. It was bland and tasteless. Just plain rice with regular mushrooms, a few asparagus stems and some lobster pieces. No seasoning and no flavor. No salt and pepper on the table and server didn’t check back until I was almost finished with the small portion. Very disappointing for $30.00.

    One of our favorite restaurants. Great food and ambience. Our favorites are wings, shrimp app, eichner farm chicken, skuna bay salmon- ask for crab stuffed, espresso rub filet, maple pecan blondie. Unfortunately quite noisy this time, sounded like a bar in the dining room.
