While the refurbishment is elegant and modern, the food is inconsistent at best and the service is appalling. Even if the food was amazing, it is not worth more than an hour wait. Unlikely to return.
- Loris UzanNovember 16, 2014Food is really not great which is sad for such a lovely place just go for a drink
Chris PattiApril 29, 2014These folks are trying very hard and the food is decent but not amazing. Sadly, the new Tavern on the Green isn't up to the old one's par.

Dominic GadouryJune 17, 2022Beautiful location, but it’s a Tourist Trap - overpriced drinks, average service and ok food.
David SiuOctober 9, 2017Short ribs were tough. Service was slow. They also got the wrong order. Oh well.

"Who knew?! Midtown has a cool spot! The Mac and cheese... Yum. We couldn't stop ordering it. The quinoa salad was very good also. For more carbs go for the flatbreads over the dip trio."
