I dine out failry often and have had some amazing dining experiences at places like Babbo, Ramsey's at The London Hotel, Gramercy Tavern, etc. and I have to say Tavern on the Green is still one of my favorites. I am a born and bread New Yorker and one who truly enjoys good food and dining in fine restaurants. Most everyone I speak to about or run into at Tavern has had enjoyed their overall experience there. The food is very good, above average for what you may expect or what you might have heard, and I have to say the same for catered events as well, a few of which I have been to at TOTG. They have a new Chef and although I have always felt the food to be good, it is now more inventive and less traditional and really quite amazing at times. I probably frequent Tavern 2 - 4 times a year, sometimes for a special occasion, sometimes before a show and sometimes just because I get the itch. The location, views and ambience are second to none and the new mural depicting scenes of Central Park is breathtaking, a must see whether you like Tavern or not. The service is always friendly, professional and curteous, I would say I have been there more than 30 times over the years and have NEVER had a bad experience. I highly recommend this magical feast for the senses including believe it or not, taste, it's more than just a meal it's a dining experience and should be taken as such. Although it's not cheap it is an affordable and good value, dinner for two done right can cost you about $200 for 2, with wine, but it's certainly comparable to any other good restaurant in NYC and some not so good. Lot's of people say try it once and forget it, I agree and disagree, if you haven't you should try it once but I'll bet you go back time and time again.
Pros: Ambience, Service and believe it Cuisine !!
Cons: None that I've ever experienced.
