Beware this happen on 10/12/24 if making a reservation here. they over book and then seat you outside in the cold because of there mistake. plus very rude. I'm a repeat customer If you dont like it too bad is there attitude. the Owner and wife don't care ruined my sister's birthday plus on top it off don't Like critism about what they did and act like thugs when walking out. So unprofessional. You don't treat customers like this. Never again

I can understand why this place wasn't so busy. When I arrived with my party, there was only one other table being served at close to 5pm. Food: seafood pasta was ok, sauce was missing something. Alfredo pasta was delicious, sauce was made in house. It was rich and creamy. Grilled calamari would have been good if it wasn't so extremely salty that it was inedible. Cocktails seemed a bit watered down. Cappuccino was good. There was a 5 layered cake that sounded good but for $16 a slice, and from how the menu tasted so far, I passed. Our server was very sweet, attentive and understanding. Interior was a traditional open space bar atmosphere, exterior was more attractive and inviting to dine.
What I noticed was that as more guests came in, 2 2-tops adults, and a party of 10 5-kids, 60% of the dining parties were families. So this establishment is safe to say that it's a family restaurant. Knowing that the majority of their dining guests (in a residential area) are families they should have family bathrooms or at least a changing table in the restroom. Since they did not have either, I reluctantly had no choice but to change my name much needed diapers outside where my party was (at the start of doing so, we were the only party outside and there was only 1 other party inside and they had children too. While I was finishing up the manager styler out and said abruptly that I could not do it there because it's a business and what not, I understood, but I stated there was no where else that I could change them, had there been a changing table or some space in the restroom to do so I gladly would have. And the he went on to say I could have done it in the car. That's like telling a guest they could defecate in their car. Oh wait, they did, because my babies are guests. A bit of a different approach and understanding would have changed our experience a lot more and would have encouraged us to come here again and tell others but that attitude and that approach was a deterrent.
So thank you, but no thank you to this place.
Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs yet no changing table in the restrooms nor space, and they will scold you for changing your child where you are able to.

Taverna on Division has some great food, easy going staff and live music! The stuffed Melrose pepper appetizer special was delicious. Raw clams were a nice surprise, not many places have them anymore. Martinis and wine were spot on. The live entertainment was a blast and it was very fun watching everyone dance and enjoy themselves. This should be a go to for anyone wanting quality Italian for a reasonable price with great service. Michael our bartender was also wonderful, shout out to him for making the night that much more special.

The atmosphere was fantastic. A moderate summer evening sitting outside ... Life music ... A mature adult atmosphere ... It was great. The service was on par with the atmosphere. The food was OK. Every chef has their "style". The chef did some things that were different from traditional ... We weren't impressed, but it was Ok. Overall, the atmosphere and service make it a place to visit.
