The Craftsman Tavern is a must visit. Unique and delicious cuisine, an extensive beverage menu and always a lively atmosphere. Due to their popularity we had to wait for a bit for initial service but when Brittany finally got to us (she had multiple tables sat at the same time), we had excellent and attentive service lacking for nothing. My only complaint was my salmon looked delicious but sadly overcooked so pretty dry. On the other hand, the skirt steak was delicious and was a huge portion. Cooked perfectly. Next time I will opt for that instead. Oh, and if you do go - must try the "crack addicting" truffle popcorn!
Don't go if you want prime rib. Au jus super salty and it was covered in a pool of it and meat tough!! Small portions for the price. Steak was also tough. Good service. If you like to watch TV while you dine there's about a half dozen of them in a small space.
Beer cheese fondue to die for.
Came here randomly for brunch on a Sunday and had great service. Bottomless mimosa was great, every time my mimosa got low it was topped off until we left. Sweet potato tots were delicious as well.
OH. MY. GOD! This was by far the best dining experience I’ve had in so long! The food was PHENOMENAL and the service was so welcoming. My fiancé even forgot to grab his hat and Shane tan outside to make sure we didn’t leave it! She was THE BEST!! hats off to her! Will definitely be coming back again
I cannot rate this place high enough. Giovanni made the experience so fun and engaging, the entire staff was extremely accommodating, and the food is phenomenal.
We had a group of 25 and the restaurant even customized the menu for the day of with our event name on top. We are definitely going to become regulars here. The outside atmosphere was fantastic and chill, the food was DELICIOUS, and the service was on point. Everybody in the group commented on how great the experience was and how fantastic the food was. And the manager came out at the end to say hi and ask about our experience- overall 20/10 would recommend this spot.
