    The staff was very friendly and professional, we waited almost no time and had waters in front of us just after we sat down. The menu is a pretty unique design that is incredibly simple to read, we found what we wanted fast and our waiter (Sean) appeared like he knew we had decided and it felt like he had only just left the table when he was headed back with our appetizer! Took a little time for the entree BUT I wouldn’t trust it if my steak came out too fast, and the wait for that wagyu was worth every second! First time I’ve gotten a steak at a restaurant and it wasn’t mostly fat! Every bite was amazing! If I still lived in the area I would come more often; definitely a new restaurant marked down for visiting!

    Nice casual place. Two of us had the happy hour specials, brussels sprouts and sliders and taco. Both were great! My husband's Chicken Parmesan Sandwich was very dry and overdone. Service was great.

    Had a Navy retirement get together with a bunch of people coming in and out. Everyone at the Tavern was great and kept the drinks and food flowing. Tavern is our favorite restaurant on the island. Thank you

    The Cocktails were really incredible and the Brussel Sprouts were delicious. Other food was good, such as the chicken pot pie.

    I had a great dinner with my two sons. Very friendly service. My boys’ steaks were cooked perfectly medium rare and they raved about the taste. We will definitely be back.

    Unique spot on Orange not far from the Hotel Del Coronado. The Jidori chicken was especially good, but we liked the chicken pot pie and caesar salad too.

    Food and service were both great. One of the better values on the Island for our needs. It just struck me as off the way the service staff was dressed. Not beachy, or any effort at a uniform, or event T-shirts. More like jeans with holes, and total grubby. It just caught my attention. Overall, a great experience.'Chef Itzei does good work !
