Reviews for Taverna in Dallas, TX
I really enjoyed my dining experience at Taverna. This location is very cute and the patio view is nice… and now enjoyable... because the weather is cooling down. The portions of each of the dishes were just right and everything was seasoned well. Thebest hit of the night was the tiramisu dessert. The presentation was unique and the taste was truly a delight! I recommendsetting reservations ahead of time and plan to valet because there is very limited street parking as it is off the busy, popularstrip of Knox Henderson. Read more
The pasta sauce is so creamy and clings to the Pasta. The green and white noodles were cooked perfectly. The chicken was tender... and flavorful. I love the mushrooms. To start we had meatballs. The serving size is 8 delicate medium sized meatballs that areperfect to share. The tomato sauce was delicious and topped off with fresh basil. Served with grilled toasts, it was delicious. Three dollar mimosas are a bonus. Read more
We had an absolutely incredible experience eating lunch here last Saturday. A huge thank you to ARTURO, our waiter who was... absolutely amazing, and Alyssa(GM) who made sure everything was perfect for us. We will definitely eat here again in thefuture. For a four star restaurant, we received five star food and service! Mike Read more
Went on a Saturday without realizing brunch was going on, so it was very busy but we only had to wait for a few minutes to get... seated. Our waiter was great and very nice. The focaccia with prosciutto was more like toasted pizza dough, but it was stillgreat. The paglia e fieno was very good. You could taste the truffle oil, but it was not overwhelming. The carbonara was alsovery good. Read more
First time here for a girl's brunch. Valet parking directly across the street for $5. FYI. We were greeted & seated quickly. We... had a reservation. Our server was great. Service was a little slow and the flies were horrible in the area we were seated in.Weirdly as we were leaving they were bringing out citronella candles!! Sir we needed those over a hour ago!?????????????????????? We tried the beignets but didn't like them. The cappuccino sauce was good though. The calamari wasdelicious. Our table ordered the burger, pasta dishes & a chicken dish. I thoroughly enjoyed the pasta dish & my friend enjoyedher burger. Our other friend's chicken dish was a little cold & too many tomatoes. The food is a little pricey for the caliberbut it was an ok first experience. Read more
What a beautiful place! I felt like I was on the streets of Italy. The sidewalk dining was charming with the lovely railing... separating you from the traffic. The awning is a nice touch, but it felt more homey sitting in the patio on the side of thebuilding. The trees had little twinkly lights and the birds were flying around (not too crazy). It was super nice. You couldturn to speak to someone at the next table and feel like it was one big gathering if you wanted to. Now for the service: Ourserver was attentive, professional and knew his stuff! He checked on us often and gave us time when we were indecisive. Hissuggestion of the Lagardia wine was excellent ($36 for the bottle). We began with the mussels ($18). Loved the sauce - even morethan Trulucks. The accompanying bread was perfect for dipping. Mussels can be tricky - these were wonderful. I ordered theseabass ($34) and my sis ordered the Tavera burger ($19). She loved her burger!! Couldn't finish it, of course (see photo). Istole a couple of fries & had a tiny bite of meat. It was very good. My seabass was cooked perfectly and the sauce was the sameas the mussels, so I was happy. The shrimp was full of flavor, yum!! Be careful of the lemon garnish on top - I wasn't payingattention & ate a bite - wow! LOL Alexis (our server) didn't have to twist our arm to much for dessert - we split a chocolatemousse. Divine!! Overall, the experience was very nice and I would recommend this place. We got in at a great time - no wait -but it got really busy before we left (7pm on a Friday). Read more
Very good pizza place, will definitely visit again. The staff was very friendly and the pizza was very delicious. I believe you... can being your pets as well (or animal companions if you prefer). Read more
Taverna is a really nice location aesthetically. I just was distracted by the service. It took over 15 mins to get a waiter but... afterwards the service was a little better. The food was good. I wasn’t blown away by my cacio Pepe but everyone else at mytable loved their dishes. In particular, they really loved the gnocchi and sea bass. I would say we spent 30 dollars a person,which is good for high quality Italian. Maybe I would try taverna again but maybe during a less busier time. Read more
