The reviews from 12 months ago must have had an effect on the Tavern's staff and management, because the only experiences I've had with Tavern have been very positive. I only started going in October 2012, and even when the place has been packed with people I've had great service, fresh food (if slightly overpriced for the area, but not robbery) and a good time. The beer selection is varied and interesting, the waitstaff have been very attentive and friendly, and the food has been very enjoyable. I'll admit that the pass-through to the Diner next door is a bit odd at first, but once you realize they're managed by the same family, it makes more sense.

While my wife and I have never sat down for a formal dinner, we've had many meals/ drinks at the bar. We really enjoy the "micro brew" selection, especially the IPA Lagaunitis. We tend to order a bunch of apps which are always fantastic....nacho's, calamari, sliders (cheese burgers & short ribs), pizza, etc.. It's definitely a great place to watch a game, have some great brews and apps.

RAW BAR - My son and I are well known Oyster Junkies. Well the relatively new J-Towne had a Raw Bar sign so we gave them a shot and they rocked it. Despite the place being quiet between lunch and dinner our the seafood took a little long... and they were out of crab legs and peel and eat shrimp so the raw bar platter was off. But those pesky facts fade when you consider the incredible quality of these oysters. Very riendly service, great beer list and very nice atmosphere. A touch on the pricey side... but I would walk over hot coals for these oysters!!

Love J Towne!! Great food, great service & the best margaritas around. I've been there at least once a week since it opened & have never been disappointed.
