One of the best Tavern/Restaurants in the region and has become one of my top "Go-To's." Modern and clean and with garage doors to the street in front creating an open-air environment, they have one of the best atmospheres around. The service is continually above-average for the region. I've never waited for a drink or for someone to take my order. I think their active and engaged management plays a big role here. I'd go just for these two reasons combined. However, their food is top-flight for what it is. Now, don't expect Michelin star gourmet, but do expect a well-rounded menu consistently prepared correctly or a cut above the competition.
Menu standouts are the pizza and their salmon. The pizza is Gelsosomo's. If you're familiar with the region you're likely familiar with this Aurelio's copy (sorry, but you know it's true). I've had the "Gel's" from a bunch of different locations in the region and think Broad Street Tavern puts out the best; and quickly and consistently. Then, the salmon is impressive. About as polar opposite from pizza as it gets. What's impressive here is my experience with it correctly cooked consistently. It's almost juicy, but not undercooked. Whereas my experience in the region has been the vast majority of places, even the "fancy" places, overcook their salmon. This dish will make you feel like you're dining at a high-end restaurant. And, they have about every sport you can imagine on TV and they're happy to make sure the game you want is on and playing (so long as you're not outnumbered 20-1; which is understandable). An awesome place for gameday. I certainly hope they can keep their standards as high as they are and encourage you to patronize them when possible. They've been a fantastic addition...
Read moreI invited my family to have a nice dinner. I saw a few people saying they like it there so I was excited to try it. The food was okay. The pizza was eh but I think they share with Gelsosomos. Italian beef’s are on toasted bread, which they liked. My salmon was good, roasted potatoes were great, just wasn’t a fan of the red pepper sauce it had an odd after taste. However, that might just be the last time we go as the waitress with short blond hair didn’t really acknowledge us and looked annoyed the entire time. Basically straight out rude. We all noticed her speaking to other tables and not sure why we weren’t treated the same way. It wasn’t a full house and I believe only about 4 tables were occupied. We waited patiently but it did take longer than expected, no problem since most restaurants are like that now. We always clean up our mess and put dishes together so it’s easier for the establishment we left her a good tip too, so we know we weren’t the problem. I was pretty upset because I thought this would be our new hang out place. I was embarrassed that my family experienced that since I was hyping it up to them. Unfortunately, we also are not the only one that experienced this, as a few others also told us about their not so great experience...
Read moreI think this place could use more warmth in the atmosphere. Some candles on tables/ a fire feature would really tie the space together. It could also use some sort of artwork, the atmosphere feels a tad cold. The steak sando was thick and delicious and the Mac n cheese was tasty. I really liked the garlic fries too. I also enjoyed the Mango Cart beer on draft. This place is relatively new, but deserves some more attention. I really think with proper advertising and inclusion of events, this place could be so busy. They have plenty of space too to add a few arcade games if they feel like...
