This is one of our suburban go-to's!! Meat-loving eating fiance *hearts* the blackened pork chop and steaks. I am 'intolerant' to onions, but love spaghetti sauce... and they have spicy, onion-less sauce. OMG! Yummy, warm sourdough bread.
Really clean. A mix of sport-bar and upscale-ish nightclub feel... No cocktail menu, but they will make anything you'd like. Service is good + friendly, but sometimes a little slow.
Only thing to note is that on Fri and Sat nights, they have a crazy reservation policy. I haven't figured it out... but I think they have live music so AMEX cardholders can reserve a table?? I don't know.... I called to reserve. They said ok. We got there and they said they didn't have a reservation (15min after I called). They seated us in the bar area-- which would have been fine except it was winter and we were next to those garage door-windows that open, so it was cold. Must be fun in the summer though! -

Our favorite wine shop is next door, but my husband and I only recently tried this place.
The good:
Drinks were very reasonably priced. They have a good selection of wine and they give you a good pour.
I would definitely go back for a drink and some people watching.
Everyone is very friendly and the service is great.
The bad:
The food! Apart from the La Briola Sourdough Bread, nothing else is very good. The Burger tasted very "school cafeteria" like and they have a strange problem with the definition of "fries". We asked what the tavern fries were and our waiter happily described them as thinly cut french fries, which happens to be my favorite. We were surprised to see under seasoned potato chips instead!?! Nothing else that we tried was very good.
I would go for the drinks but only after eating somewhere else first! -

I came here for drinks on a weekday evening. They have a good variety of bottled beers like Alpha King or Three Floyds Pride and Joy. Our server was attentive but did not overwhelm us.
It is nice to have a new bar to visit that is close to my place. I did not realize that they also have a larger parking lot in the back.
I will have to go back to try the food or when they have the dueling pianos. -

Had lunch here recently. It was just ok. Service was wonderful and I do like the space. Nice, open, and airy. I would like to return for drinks and appetizers though. I was told they have some really nice entertainment in the evenings.

While dining here I used yelp to order our items from the menu. We went with the pizza, tavern chicken, fish tacos, and the mini burgers. I was totally satisfied with the food and furthermore the prices were fair. The after work bar scene looked like they were having a good time at the bar area. They have regular live entertainment on Saturdays and I will have to give it a shot. One last thing, I had a bloody mary and it was tasty!

Food is great, a little over priced but worth it. Just watch your bill! Martinis are $14 each. Pl
Plus they add 18% gratuity for a party of two and don't even mention THAT! -

It's a nice place, both inside and out. The food is pretty good too, and they have a good beer selection. The prices are a little high, about $25 for a sandwich and 2 beers... Otherwise a good place with decent atmosphere. I will say that it's a little bit of an older crowd here.

I was a little skeptical about the place and put off going for several months. I went tonight and was pleasantly surprised. The Tavern Chicken is truly something special. The ambiance is really great as well. I'm not sure why people say it's overpriced as I found it to be the opposite

Music was on POINT the night we went. It was oldies but I like that type of music, it was definitely ringing my bell.
I don't know what the place used to be but it seemed like it might have been an old auto shop. They had their "garage doors" open that night with some mesh to protect us from nasty multi legged creatures lurking around.
Beer prices seemed average and since I didn't try the food I can't really judge but the atmosphere was great. -

My wife and I like to try new restaurants, so when this opened, we decided to give it a go. All we wanted was pub food, so we thought this would be good. We ordered burgers, and when the waiter asked if we wanted to try goat cheese on it, I was a little skeptical.
Reluctantly, I agreed and the order was placed. When I tasted it, I had found my new favorite burger. It was so good!
Since then, we've been back a few times. The service is not the best, but it's not the worst we've ever experienced. The size of the place makes it a little barn-ish. It's loud and very bar-like. I guess this is to be expected, but it would be nice if they used something to quiet it a little, at least in the dining room.
This time, when we went to dinner, we had purchased a Groupon. It was well worth it! For an appetizer, we had the Tavern Chicken. If you don't eat anything else there, you have to try that! It was a little lemony and crusty. It was surprisingly excellent!
We will continue going there, but next time, I am certainly going to order the Tavern Chicken! -

Went here using a Groupon on a Sunday afternoon.
Place was fairly quiet but atmosphere was nice and quiet enough to converse.
We orderer Grilled Salmon w/asparagus & Stuffed Pork w/8 finger pasta + 2 sodas coming to $37.
Would definately recommend grabbing an appetizer as the wait was around 40 minutes or so, some bread on the table would have been appropriate as another suggestion to the owners.
Salmon was very fresh as was the also grilled asparagus (which would liked to have seen a little more on the plate), It sat in a VERY buttery light lemon sauce.. (some extra lemon wouldve been nice and again bread would have been great). Making the dish feel rather greasy to the taste.
Pork was nicely cooked but came in a rather strange sauce which also covered the pasta.
Bread couldve come in very handy since both plates seemed to have rather a lot of sauce.
From what I could see most of the dishes others ordered again had rather a lot of sauce attached to the meals.
Sauces- Might be something to go easy on in future.
Bread- should be served with every entree ordered.
Other than that it was quite tasty and a pleasant visit, not too sure Id go back regularly, but once in a odd while. -

We went with a Groupon and found that there were some things to like and some that weren't so good.
They have a large martini menu but when you look at it, it's all vodka martinis, not a gin martini in sight. Don't they know that a real martini is made with gin? Wine list is small, no vintages listed, but I wasn't expecting much at a place like this.
Ambience - a fellow Yelper said "barn-like" and I agree, and would add that this place looks like it has not been redecorated since the late 80s even though it's only about a year old. I heard the decorator used to be with Whitesnake. There are plenty of TVs to watch the game if you want that.
Foodwise, it was pretty good. We did not have any appetizers. The lamb lollipops were decent but didn't wow me. The ribeye sandwich was delicious. The meat was super tender and cooked to perfection. The broiled lobster tail was rubbery but maybe it wasn't the smartest thing to order here. Tavern fries are huge thin cut planks of fried potato. Think kettle chips on steroids. Yum.
Service was very friendly but the food arrived after a loooong wait.
Overall, it seems like a decent place to have straightforward food, maybe watch a game. -

Came here to watch a game. For some reason we decided to order bloody marys and they sure were good. Their fries are not good, but I had their mini pizza and if you like thin crust and cheesy then you must try it. I ate the whole pizza thinking I wouldn't.
It is a nice place and if weather permits they open on side but it has a screen, yet you can still get a great breeze.
Service was great but prices are a bit high compared to the area...but maybe it is because it is a nice place inside? -

We just went in for a drink after we had dinner elsewhere. The wine list leaves a lot to be desired. My wife asked for a white zin and I got a red. My wife tasted her wine and didn't like it at all so we pushed it away from us which is normally a flag to the bartender that something was wrong. Our bartender walked by us three times it wasn't until I put down my credit card to pay did she notice that the wine wasn't consumed. To her credit she took it off the bill but she didn't seem that busy earlier to not notice it.
The atmosphere is ok, but there is nothing in the way of bar entertainment except the tvs at the bar. For a place that is so big having the bathrooms downstairs is a bit offputting as well.
They do offer free valet, but it seems a bit unnecessary on a Tuesday night.
I probably won't be back as there are other bars/restaurants in the area I can get a decent drink and have some fun. -

I took my wife for her birthday to a place she wanted to try out. The service was good from Steve. The food was awful.
My wife had shrimp w/white wine sauce and she enjoyed it. I had grilled calamari, it was like pieces of rubber, I told the staff, no replacement.
I ordered Fruiti de Mar and this was terrible also. I have had this dish many times and never did it include fish with bones. They did replace this meal w/o the fish, but the clams were full of sand. I did like the other seafood in the dish, but it was not worth the price as I did not eat most of my meal.
We might go back, but not for seafood, I do not like the management, Kathy, and I think they should be replaced.
All that mattered was my wife as it was her day and we enjoyed some wine at home after. -

We had a groupon, but decided we won't be returning anytime soon. The service was wonderful as was the soup, but the fries disappointed and the pizzas were really bad with almost no topping. It rather reminded me of a frozen pizza with that little bit of cheese.
When we arrived the music was a wonderful piano player, but the lighting was so bright that it looked like they left the cleaning overheads on. About half way through dinner the lighting dimmed and a DJ started. Unfortunately the restaurant tables are between the music and bar so the DJ cranked it up so loud we had to yell over a table for 4. We gave up and left after the main course because we could no longer talk. -

Food was delicious, but the server, Saul, added gratuity to our table of 2. Then, he failed to return the itemized check with the credit card slip. I'm guessing he was hoping we didn't see the added gratuity and would tip him more. My advice: enjoy the food, but read the bill carefully!

I've been back to this place about 3 times since my first time there for lunch and dinner and I have to tell you, I'm really disappointed. I really, really wanted to make this place one of my regulars but it just seemed to get worse and worse ever time. It's really too bad.
The food really sucked, period. I don't know what else to say. What was good, is now bad. The funniest of all was the mozzarella sticks, there was no mozzarella in the sticks, just breading. When I sent them back the waitress told me that the guy in the kitchen said he's using a "cheaper" brand. How can you screw up cheese and breading?
The place is real nice, and if you stick to beer or wine you'll be ok, but if you get hungry you will be disappointed.1 Previous Review: Show all »

Went back about 8pm on a weekend with my kids, 8 and 11. There is no kids menu and the not so subtle waiter let it be known that "technically, we're a bar and not a kids place but I might be able to suggest something". His effort was poor, as well as his service. He must've been between modeling jobs.
We all left somewhat disappointed not so much with the place, but the HELP in this place. I guess if yer not young and cute the young wait-staff figures yer just old and in the way. Shame. Us oldsters generally tip the best even on a bad day. I still say TOL needs to hire MILFS. These LaGrange waitresses (and waiters) ain't Tavern on Rush caliber to be sure.
PS. I say...allow the tatoos, shun the smokers at the door. Make them go stand somewhere out in the parking lot, or the alley or something. YICK..1 Previous Review: Show all »

This is my favorite place to throw a party. The atmosphere is modern and classy. The food is the shocker. I haven't ordered a single dish that I haven't absolutely loved. The Tavern Chicken is indescribable. A total must have! And to the reviewers who have been living under a rock for the last century... OF COURSE they force gratuity!!! Haven't you heard of all the a-holes who leave without giving gratuity? That is a servers PRIMARY INCOME!!! Many businesses do this now. Don't be mad at the server. Be mad at the jerks who don't tip now days! And believe me, they're everywhere. If you get bad service then do a charge back! duh. I was made aware about the 18% gratuity, for a party larger than 6, more than once by the owner. Saul is my favorite server and let me tell you this guy is extremely courteous and knowledgeable. He knows what his restaurant serves and never forgets anything. The owner is also very helpful and easy to work with. I wish I could give them more stars!

I'm liking this place more and more. I've never eaten here so I can't speak for the food. I like the dancing! They've secured some great bands for Friday and Saturday nights. And in the burbs of LaGrange, Countryside, Brookfield, etc., this is a very nice spot to hear a good band that plays what bands should play....dance music!!

Stopped in after dinner to check this place out. Not a bad place. The people were friendly and had good service from the bartenders. What I was disappointed about is they advertise live bands and there weren't any for a Friday night.
I would come back but I would check the schedule first to make sure they had entertainment. You can sit at any bar and drink. Sometime you want to hear some live music too. -
Review from Carol K.

So much potential. So many mis steps. Hmm . . .for being open for 2 months- Tavern on La Grange still has many of the new place "blues" to work out. Three stars for now as they are new, but this could go either way, folks!
The building is interesting. Almost commercial looking from the outside with the darkened windows and liberal use of brick- it reminded me of a doctor's office. But pull open that door and you find yourself in a huge space with tall ceilings. large, riveting, hand painted murals peppering the walls and an area in the corner for the entertainment that they have on the weekends.
We were seated in a booth along the front wall- but the best seats on a nice day or night are on the north side of the building- where they roll up garage doors" opening the side of the bar to the outside. Interestingly enough- they have these huge "screen sheets" that they snap in on the open doors . . . .never saw that in the city. (wonder if it's a code thing?)
Another mystery is that there is a shrine like (altar?, liquor case?)area on the inside south wall- and when we asked our server about it, she just shrugged and said she really didn't know anything about it other than it was "someone's uncle" who is (was?) in the vodka business. There is a framed picture of a man there (the uncle perhaps?) There are also a series of 6 cupboard doors in the "shrine" that intrigued me as well. Hmm . . would love to know what that is all about as it looks a bit out of place in the dining room.
Back to our server. She definitely needed a little more training in customer care and maybe a little more interest in the place that she worked?. She didn't know anything about the "shrine" or the massive art on the walls " You have to go up and look at the little cards on the walls cuz I've never looked at them", said she. I might suggest that all the servers look at the art as they are such focal pieces, people are going to ask about them, and the people who painted them. And when we told her our order (salmon and a cheeseburger) she had to ask us twice about wanting ketchup or mayo.
And guess what didn't come when the food did? Mayo or ketchup. Or cheese on the burger, for that matter. She had to go back to the kitchen for both. What our server did know about was the social aspects of the bar. Salsa lessons on Sunday nights, karaoke on Tuesdays and live music on the weekends. Now at least that sounds like fun!
The food was just okay. My medium burger was closer to well done, and my friend's salmon and asparagus was drowning in butter. They also served warm bread and butter with your entree that looked really good. But it must be baked off in the restaurant as the loaf we had was still frozen and cold to the touch in the center.
Parking is easy as there is a private lot. And dinner ran only about $25 without drinks so the prices are fair. They just need to get the level of food and service up to par to be really successful.
I had high hopes for this place. For now, 3 stars as a starting place. I'll give it another try in a couple of months to see if they have worked out the "new place blues". -

I've been to Tavern many times, and I have never been disappointed! Food is fresh and always prepared with care. While the entertainment is a plus, the ambiance is fantastic. The owners are totally accessible and recently met the owners son who happens to be one of the managers and he was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will becoming back for sure and I do not live in the area, but worth the drive. Thank you Tavern for making my experiences great!

I went there tonight a week after they opened after seeing the first two reviews it looks like the got most of the kinks out of the system.
We walked in and were told there was a 10 min. wait, the hostess asked if we wanted to wait in the bar so we did and hostess came to get up about 5 mins later. I ordered absolute and cranberry and a mich ultra and it was $10 which I didn't think was bad at all.
Our water and bread was delivered to the table quickly and our server was right behind. We order moz. sticks as an app. and they were great the marinara was amazing they must make it themselves. I ordered the ribeye sandwich and my friend order a burger. It turned out they did not have ribeye so I ordered a burger too.
The moz. sticks came out and our food followed about 10-15 mins later. Our burgers came out and were perfectly done, the fries look like chips but are thicker and were delicious. Our total bill for two mixed drinks, one beer, moz. sticks and 2 burgers was $43 which I thought was pretty good.
The place it's self is beautiful a very modern jazz feel there are garage doors that they can open in warm weather and a very modern industrial feeling, yet still warm and cozy.
They had a live jazz group who were also great. Would make a great group outing or date night. I would feel comfortable in jeans or evening wear here. -

Stopped into Tavern for a quick beer and were greeted upon entering, but found the service to be unpleasant. It took over 5 minutes to be served and it was blamed on a shift change. Had this been explained when sitting down this review might have been a little better. However the ambiance is a bit lacking. The garage doors are a cool idea if this is Wrigleyville, not LaGrange. The bathrooms are in the basement, in case you get here and wonder. Overall, I do not think that I will be back to this bar unless it undergoes a major adjustment.

The first couple of times I went to this place, I really enjoyed it and thought it was a nice new addition to the neighborhood. Well, not only does the service seem to get worse and worse, the prices seem to get higher and higher. I went there last Friday and had the same HORRIBLE waiter that I've had two times before. It was not until he handed us our check that he though to ask us how everything was a crack a smile. The kicker, a martini cost $13!!! They don't have a drink menu so I didn't know how much it was before ordering it. Never in a million years did I think it would cost that much. There is NO martini worth that. The goat cheese appetizer - $9.25!!! The food is fine but again, everything is very over-priced. It's Tavern on La Grange people, not Tavern on Rush.
So, while it's nice inside, the horrible service and overpriced food and drinks have lead to the decision that I will never be back. It's really too bad! -

Well, not much has changed, I stand by my comment it's the nicest place in the area but it for sure needs a new manager, I'm not sure who interview's the staff but they are clueless when it comes to bartenders, it's bad enough not having a drink menu and the food being just shy of "ok" but when you get better service at the corner gas station and you have this beautiful space something is wrong, I really hope they are listening to people, this place can be huge if they make the right moves now before it's too late.

Just came from this place tonight and the food was phemonenal. La Grange has many good eateries, though some of them seem to be "phoning it in" lately (ahem Palmer's). My husband had a skirt steak and I had the chicken special. Both served HOT and exactly as ordered. Tender veggies, fresh ingredients, settled beautifully in our tummies. The bartender even knew the meaning of "slightly dirty" for my martini. Our service was perfectly pleasant, though you do have to be assertive if you want something more or different. What's wrong with that?
Whatever bugs they need to work out, the kitchen has it's stuff together. I hear they are going to cultivate a retro dance bar thingie. Sounds fun, but please keep the chef well paid. -

Horrible service...staff needs to communicate with each other. My brother and I both ordered medium rare burgers and when the burgers came out they were charbroiled!!! The meat was CRUNCHY instead of soft, juicy, and a little pink in the middle. We sent them back and the waitress seemed to act confused when we said we wanted the burgers medium rare and on top of that was bothered we wanted new cheeseburgers and said she was going to check with her manager. The manager comes up and also seems to be confused about what medium rare means????? After a few minutes of describing in detail (short of almost going back to the kitchen and cooking it ourselves) what medium rare was and sorting through the confusion (his), he said he needed to talk to the cook. Now I'm confused??? The manager can't just take our burgers back he has to check with the cook!!! So after a few more minutes of waiting for the waitress then the manager then the cook to figure out how to cook a burger....he finally took our burgers back and got us new ones. The two stars are entirely for the second burger which was delicious!!! It was everything we wanted it to be juicy, soft, and a bit pink in the middle. When it was time for the bill, we were charged for all of the burgers! We mentioned it to the waitress who said she thought the manager had taken care of it (communicate people). After some more waiting, she finally came back with our bill with only 2 cheeseburgers on it. The manager did come to our table before we left and offered an apology and a dessert on the house, which we didn't accept because we were ready to go after all the waiting but it was a nice gesture after the whole ordeal. The place itself is a very nice place, but staff needs to communicate more with each other and maybe reduce customer waiting time for the small things. Not sure if I will give it another chance...

Went recently for an early Friday dinner at about 5:30 p.m. and the place was dead. By the time we left, it was a bit more crowded but I would assume you will not have much of a wait if you go on a weekend night.
This place felt like it did not know what it wanted to be. It is obvious that the owners spent a lot of money on the interior trying to make the place classy but it seems like they missed the mark a bit. I think it seems kind of cheesy. Apart from a couple of nice signs, most of the exterior signage consists of generic block letters that really cheapen the overall look of the place. And permanent lettering on the entrance declaring, "No Visible Tattoos" is an ironically unclassy way to try to make the restaurant seem more classy. (There's nothing wrong with visible tats, anyway.)
The menu seemed somewhat limited and unorganized - for example, there were several entrees listed in the appetizers section. Also, the menu, itself, was just a single piece of printer paper and mine had some stains on it. Not the best first impression.
I had a burger that was ok. My wife had a pasta dish that was ok. I did like the fact that the Caesar salad came with actual anchovies but other than that the food was just ok. I did not like that the Guinness came in a tiny "pint" glass.
The service was ok, nothing special.
My brother-in-law has suggested we go back for the dueling pianos so I might give it another try, otherwise, I see no need to return. -

The food was actually pretty good in this place. I wish i could give it 2 and a half stars. The problem was, every person working there seemed confused. the waitress was really nice but didnt seem like she knew what she was doing. then random servers would come ask us if we wanted more drinks and stuff. Everyone was very attentive but inexperienced. The drinks were good too except i was drinking a sugary martini and the glass was soooo sticky everytime they brought me one. I had the lollipop lamb chops and they were great but the food wasnt hot like i like it, but tasted good. They need to get more organized. they had a great band playing, which attracted an odd crowd of wanna be MILFS. One looked like a young phyllis diller. I would go back, but they need to get it together.

hmmmm, not sure what happened. came back here on a friday night same day as my first visit. we were there much later, at 11 p.m.
WHAT HAPPENED?
we were the youngest ones there. the waitstaff was wearing loose tees and normal fitting pants.
did i miss the memo? was there a late "early bird special."
