Reviews for Guild Tavern in South Burlington, VT
10/10 meal. Awesome ambiance, smells great in the restaurant - smoky. Super clean too. Staff is excellent. Waitress was super... helpful, skilled, and friendly. Their craft cocktails are absolutely delicious. Had the ribeye and it was better than in othersteakhouses. Little pricey but all around superb experience. As near to perfect as dining can get. 10/10.

Great Sunday evening. We didn’t have time to reserve a table and were really well welcomed by the staff. The french apple run... cake was delicious ???? Read more
I knew all good things had come together when I walked through the door and could smell the fragrance of the maple and oak wood... that was being used to grill the steak over on open fire. All of the food, including the meat, came from local farms. Theinterior was unique with great art, a meat grinder collection, and authentic chicken feeder lamps from reclaimed coups. Mywaitress, Christina, had a contagious smile. Her perfect service made my evening all the better. I started with a drink calledtheir Sunshine Fix which was their house concoction that included a house rum blend, grilled pineapple, coconut, lime, allspicetropical, and bright. I have to say it was wonderful and perfect for the moment. After, I had their Lambswool, also a housedrink, and was blown away. It was perfectly mixed with Green Chartreuse, ginger, lime, rosemary lively, tart, and herbaceous. It is now on one of my best drinks lists. To end libations, I chose the Market Salad with arugula lettuce, shaved radish,pepitas, cherry tomatoes, croutons, and a sherry vinaigrette dressing. It was a good start. As a main, I ordered the WoodGrilled Ribeye Steak (Rare). It came on a bed of whipped potatoes, doused in a bearnaise sauce with Al Dente broccoli on top. I am most critical of steaks, and this put me on cloud nine. I highly recommend the Guild Tavern for anyone who loves a greatsteak. I would like to add that the bartenders (Alexa and Jack) made some great variations of their favorite drinks for meafter dinner (All hail Uber). Both of them here for college, and both stayed for their love of Vermont. Read more
Had a very nice date night at Guild's bar (place was packed, which was nice to see post-COVID to see the place busy again). New... bartender, highly skilled. We had oysters (so so quality, bland, overpriced), and a couple of other apps. The grilled octopuswas the best we have ever had anywhere - truly delicious. The beverages were well made, an excellent Vieux Carre (frankly achallenging cocktail to get the dilution right, but our mixer did perfectly), and the Lambswool was also well made, although weboth agreed it would have been a better late Spring beverage than a late Winter one as it is fairly bright in flavor profile.

Very few places in this area that cook steaks correctly. This place knows what they are doing. Custom open flame grill. They... take the temperature of every steak, so it's always cooked perfectly. They have a great cocktail menu. Ton of local beers ontap, but the ambiance here is what will keep you coming back. The whole restaurant has a big open layout. You can actually watchthe chefs cook your food over the open flame grill. The lighting and decor is very tasteful. They even have a big fire placethat you can lounge around. Super unique spot right on Williston road with plenty of parking. Perfect place to bring a date. Read more
Great atmosphere and dining experience. Dining under dim lights and ambient music. Food and service were great. Reasonable... prices. Their cheesecake is really good! Read more
Honestly really wanted to like this spot. Cocktail list was impressive, and they definitely won me over there. What absolutely... put me off was the steak frites... ordered medium, received a very rare steak. I didn't mention anything until the end, as therewasn't anyone who came by to check. Most of my steak went untouched and was rather disappointed, as I was looking forward to agood meal. Might return for the cocktails, but that's it. Read more
