- TTedvipNew York City •12 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThe staff is superb. The two front desk reception people greet perfectly, accompany guests to the assigned table and stop by to ensure all is well. Adrian, our server, is superb. Explained the menu, made good suggestions and despite the crowd made sure we were happy. The food is outstanding but the noise level is a disaster! We could not carry on a conversation without adding to the din. The room manager is also a very polite customer focused man who also stopped to insure we were happy. Noise aside, we will be back.:))More infoBad RomanPrice: Expensive• Italian• Upper West Side•4.5
- MMollyAtlanta Metro •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoTucked into Central Park, Tavern on the Green was the perfect holiday experience to round out our Christmas in NYC trip! Cozy and festive decor paired with impeccable service and delectable food makes this a “must try” for anyone looking to soak in the magic that is Christmas in New York! I highly recommend the honey roasted fig appetizer and the pan seared scallop entree.More infoTavern on the GreenPrice: Expensive• American• Midtown West•4.7
