Tavern29

Pros- The Tavern29 Benedict was good, so was the Buffalo Chicken Dip.- Bottomless Mimosa was tasty too! - Waiter was very nice and engaging with us, making us have a good time while we were having our brunch. Cons- The waiter really didn't check in on us as much during our brunch. We had our cups empty for a while and had to wait for quite a bit.Would I go back? Yeah, just hopefully not the same waiter.

(Last visited 1/1/2023.) After celebrating New Year's Even in NYC, it's time to start the year off right, with mo' drankin'! Lol. We booked a brunch here at Taven29 because we loved it so much last time. Here's why!Atmosphere/Appearance: It's exactly a Tavern. They didn't lie in the name. Lol. Lots of light woods with a light, bubbly atmosphere. There are TVs behind the bar you can check out if you're here for a sporting event. Up front they have these super cute alcoves that you can sit in where you feel like you're separated from the rest of the restaurant. We sat here on our first visit, but at the bar on our 2nd.Service: I can't remember who took care of us either time, but we have never had an issue here, especially with having our bottomless mimosas refilled!Food: I've only had the wings here and I love them. Simple, straight to the point. The mimosas are also made to order so if you want light juice, just ask! We love that!Value: This place won't break the bank at all. Which is why it's so appealing.In conclusion, you'll likely see me here again! Make sure you check this place out if you're looking for a good brunch!

Came here to meet up with a group of friends visiting from out of town for brunch. I think it was a group of 12 or something like that, anyways, we were seated on the 2nd floor. We wanted the rooftop, but due to the rain that day, they closed it off. It is what you expect from a tavern: dark, gloomy, sticky tables.Service could have been more attentive as we had a hard time finding a waiter/waitress at times when our large group needed something. The food also did take a while as they insisted on serving all of the food at once. The food came out instantly for those food that didn't come out in the first wave as those orders were "lost".I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich ($20) and opted for the Parmesan Truffle Fries (+$2). The chicken was well battered and the smoked paprika aioli was what made the sandwich taste great. The fries is as good as you expected it to be.Overall, food tasted great, but the service needs a lot of work.

I came here for a work event with a large group. We reserved the second floor. They put up signage at the front door so it was super easy to find our dedicated space. They don't have any signature cocktails, but offered mixed drinks, wine, and beer on tap. I had a glass of their Cabernet Sauvignon. It was on the sweeter side, but pleasantly juicy. Their zucchini marinara pasta tasted better than it looked. The sauce was flavorful and had a hint of spice. Servers came by frequently to clear the tables, which was much appreciated.

Ordered:Espresso Martini (~$16)Steak & Eggs (~$25): NY strip steak sliced with two sunnyside-up eggs, topped with a romesco sauce, served with home friesAya's take:I came here with my party of 7 for brunch and although we had a reservation, they were surprisingly not busy at all! They offer bottomless brunch and I appreciate the fact that the whole party doesn't need to participate if they don't want to. I opted for an Espresso Martini which was really well made; it was creamy, not too sweet, and gave me that little caffeine kick I wanted. The Steak & Eggs was just fine. The steak portion was shockingly small - 6 slices of steak is kind of ridiculous. The sunnyside-up eggs weren't seasoned with salt or pepper and the potatoes were decent with some being slightly undercooked. My experience here was pretty average but the service and vibe was good overall.

Wanted to try this place after seeing the rave reviews. The restaurant was beautiful in the inside and we were super excited to try the food, however, we came in around 10:30pm and were told their kitchen was closed. This was a little disappointing as the hours said they were open and nothing about the kitchen closing so early. Nonetheless, beautiful restaurant and the servers were so incredibly kind. I hope to be back soon during actual hours.

We came here for brunch and bottomless and it wasn't the best experience. We were sat in the second floor and it was very empty and not the best ambience. The service was weird? I felt like our server talked down to us or was preoccupied a lot. I didn't feel bad about it but it was something that felt off.The food was just okay, some of the portions were very small (avocado toast) and some huge ( the chicken and waffles) which was unfortunate. Overall it was okay but I wouldn't come again.

- delicious sliders- fabulous service- I did not like the dressing on house salad- service aims to please- 7 wings per order wings were alright- decent portion sizes

I came for brunch and my honest opinion, it wasn't my favorite. The bottomless brunch was good, the mimosas came in at a decent time and the rooftop was pretty and shaded with its own bar. But my meal, the Chicken and Biscuits specifically, was not it for me and made my friend and I's stomach hurt. The gravy mixed with the egg was just not a good mix. The flavor profile was not an appetizing mix. The French toast my other friend had looked great though, so I would go with that if you do end up coming through. Staff was cool, I just really took issue with that specific dish. I might come back for the rooftop, but as far as brunch goes, just okay. Maybe I just need to try the right dish. Tips:Rooftop not handicap accessible; 2 flights of stairs requiredHandicap Accessible bathroom on first floor, though a bit of a tight fit.Ladies--check out the posters in the bathroom, they were interesting to read!

They changed the menu last week so my review may be the only one concerning the new menu. For appetizers we had the rice ball ricotta which was delicious and hearty, they gave about 4 big rice balls so it's very shareable. I had the tavern burger medium cooked, it was good but a little dry. Mac and cheese was pretty good but I didn't find it anything special. The ambiance was nice, very cozy. Only problem was the service and the cleanliness. The table my family sat down at was sticky but we just ignored it because we were so hungry and just wanted our food. The waiter was simultaneously the bartender so it was difficult to get his attention when we needed help and we had to wave him down because he wouldn't check on us. Overall, nice place with good food but not the cleanest. I wouldn't mind coming again but it just didn't stick out to me.
