Service and food were exceptional! My bolognese was delicious, I could lick the bowl clean but it would not look good to other patrons.

It's been half a year since we last came. The environment and vibe have not changed so much---very comfortable. They have a new Spring menu with a few new items added to their signature dishes. Tried their Hearts of Romaine salad, which was good with its light dressing. The Steakhouse Salmon was also good with a different kind of sauce. Hubby went for their Ribeye Steak which was not offered before and he also said it was pretty good. It was a pleasant date night.

We enjoy coming to this restaurant so we brought along some out of town guests. The service wasn't as good this time as it has been in the past, but maybe it was just one of those things. We all loved our food, and one of the guests is a butcher of fine meats and was impressed with the quality of his cut.

Always great food and friendly associates. Big portions, good to take home. The bone marrow appetizer is the reason we come, but we also have never ordered a bad dish at this place. Attentive service and clean environment.

Fun place, lively energy. Service a little on the slow side, particularly while waiting for cocktails (one bartender for a busy dining room), bacon wrapped pork tenderloin was very well-done, making it not tender to chew. The lobster was also a little too over done, a bit rubbery. Staff were very friendly and personable.

Food is well priced and delicious! We don't eat out often, and we had a great 1st experience. My partner and I shared the chop salad, oxtail mac, clam chowder, grilled octopus, and half rack of lamb. Holy cow everything was perfect and yummy. His favorite food is lamb and we thought it was prepared 15/10. The stars of the meal were the lamb and octopus. Cocktails were also a treat; not too sweet. We were SO full and would definitely recommend this place to others. Come here for a great and unpretentious yet memorable dinner.

Indicated a quiet ambience as we were there on a Monday at 5pm when it first opened... On other times we've enjoyed the restaurant, the different days and later times definitely increased the noise levels. Always a repeat restaurant for us!

Really classy gem in the heart of Chinatown. Eaten here multiple times but would need to mention that I forgot my phone here the first time by accident and recovered it that night.

The drinks were great, but the duck breast was AMAZING. Unlike any other I’ve had on island. Feels like fresh hunted back in the mainland.

An exceptional restaurant with a great, friendly staff and truly amazing food and drink. Highly recommend stopping in as you are really getting what you pay for here.
Went with friends for Sunday brunch, decent crowd with about 70% occupancy. Good was good, prices fair. Enjoyed our meal

Livestock Tavern is a hidden gem that truly shines when it comes to appetizers. The moment you step inside, you’re enveloped by a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfectly suited for an evening out with friends or a casual dinner date. The menu boasts an impressive selection of small plates that are sure to please any palate.
One standout appetizer is the crispy Brussels sprouts, which are expertly tossed in a tangy chili aioli that adds just the right amount of heat. The flavor profile is both savory and slightly sweet, making them completely addictive. Another must-try is the pork belly sliders, featuring tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat topped with a zesty slaw that balances the richness beautifully.
For those looking for a lighter option, the charcuterie board is a fantastic choice, displaying a variety of cured meats, artisanal cheeses, and house-made pickles that invite you to explore different flavors and textures.
The attentive staff at Livestock Tavern further enhances your dining experience, offering knowledgeable recommendations and ensuring your glass is never empty. If you’re in the mood for delicious appetizers and a vibrant atmosphere, Livestock Tavern is definitely worth a visit!

Great restaurant. It was our first time eating at LivestockTavern. We had a fantastic dinner. The food and service were amazing. We had the pork corn dogs and pumpkin and Brussels for starters. French onion soup, filet minion, bolognese pasta, and beet salad. For dessert we had the bread pudding and lilikoi creme brulee. Highly recommended and we will return.

Top restaurant on my list in the Chinatown area, especially for carnivores. We had the octopus, bone marrow, oxtail mac and cheese, lamb shank, crabcakes, duck breast, and beef minestrone soup. The soup was insanely flavorful, I really need that recipe. Very good depth of flavor and savory. Bone marrow very good, but needed a little salt. Octopus was perfectly cooked, very tender. Duck breast was slightly overcooked but paired so well with the pumpkin puree and potatos and I don't even like pumpkin. The lamb shank was really good as well but my friend got medium and I'm a rare person, so the flavor was there but a bit too done for my personal taste. Good service, very attentive. Alice was our server and she was new but handled my friend's corn allergy promptly and efficiently. Overall, I've taken friends here 3 times now and will continue. The menu is seasonal and just bursting with flavor and ideas.
