If you're looking for a charming spot that feels like a cozy Tuscan cottage, Vintage Tavern is the place to be. From the moment I stepped in, the rustic design and dim lighting set the perfect scene for a memorable evening. The service was impeccable, making our special occasions feel even more special with thoughtful touches like complimentary champagne. The menu is a delightful journey, with standout dishes like the beef tartare appetizer and the uniquely flavorful elk chops. Each dish, from the brined pork chop with citrus chimichurri to the perfectly seasoned ribeye, was a testament to the kitchen's commitment to quality and flavor. Even the sides, like the charred grape salad and mac-and-cheese, were deliciously crafted. While the Guinness Ice Cream was an adventurous choice, it added a quirky twist to the meal. Overall, Vintage Tavern not only impressed with its food and service but also with its serene location and the professional, attentive staff. It's definitely a place I'll be returning to, eager to try more of their culinary creations.
