The Tavern - Southbury

Calamari always over cooked repeatedly and overall long wait for service at the bar. If your are not a usual or regular you will be ignored over and over again,

The French Onion soup was delicious. We also had a mac and cheese burger and a reuben, which were good

We actually went twice in one weekend! We showed up without reservations, party of 10, on a Friday for lunch. They set us up quickly, the food was really good, and the staff were friendly.Then we had reservations for Sat evening for a party of 20 people. They were all set and ready for us. Food and drinks were very good. The waitress was awesome! Our guests came from all over the Northeast, and they were pleasantly surprised by the food. Thank you from the Colonial Bloodhound Club!

The food was okay, but the menu was very small. My food was overcooked. The prices were high for the quality of food. I really think an increase in the menu and more reasonable prices $16 for an overcooked pork belly grilled cheese is unreasonable) would fix most of the problem. The atmosphere was stiff... It 's located in a spa hotel so I was expecting more fun. It seemed out of place. Dietary restrictions: There were a lot of gluten free options or options that could be made gluten free) which was great for a couple people I was with. These individuals have celiac disease and were able to pick easily.

Went for dinner tonight, Food wasn't hot. Asked for no pesto on chicken sandwich and sandwich came with pesto on it. The quality of the food wasn't bad, just would have been better if it was a little hotter.Waitress gave options for sides without mentioning the up charges. They ended up taking the extra charges off the bill, but I'm not sure if they realize its a deceiving way of presenting options.
