Overall, everything was great — especially the service team, who did an excellent and truly professional job. I was also really happy to spend a lovely time with a friend I hadn't seen in a long while, thanks to the wonderful atmosphere they created. I'm 100% sure I'll be coming back again soon. Thanks again to everyone!
We love Taverna! The food is excellent and the staff are all very warm, attentive and solicitous. It's like a home cooked family meal, but better! We had the special appetizer of the day, crispy anchovies, and they were sublime. The omelette came with a generous portion of delicious mushrooms as well as delicately sliced "melted" leeks in Kasseri cheese, and the gyro was fantastic.
Just a lovely evening sitting outdoors on the side street under the lights, with endless helpful waiters and attention, who made great suggestions and were charming to boot. We were 2 couples, we shared all plates. The beets were the only thing that was meh, everything else was simple, felt healthy and lovely. I heard the table liked the moussaka. Will certainly go back again.
