I had the pleasure of working with Jessica, the manager at Tawerna Raw Bar & Plancha, to organize my husband's 60th birthday party. From the start, Jessica exceeded every expectation, coming back the same day with a custom menu for 14 people that perfectly captured my vision. She listened to every detail & delivered an experience that was absolutely perfect. The chefs at Tawerna did an outstanding job-the food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The entire staff was accommodating & helpful, making sure everything ran smoothly. Jessica's quick responses & attention to detail made the whole process stress-free. Tawerna is a true gem in Hudson Village, & I highly recommend Jessica & her team for your next event!

The seafood platter for two... chef's kiss. Right mix of lean & fatty meats, enough to satisfy even a hug appetite(s). I found the lobster tails a little small for my liking, but the flavour more than makes up for it. Yet another Hudson gem.

I gave this restaurant a second chance last night. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy it, again. 5:30 seating when it was quieter which was good & not too many people, thought the service would be better but it was mediocre. I still have trouble understanding why sides are not included with the main dish like every other restaurant. This increases the price substantially. Money grab. 6 little strips of dry tuna with a side of carrots for about $51 was ridiculous. Server didn't come around much. So much ice in my drink I couldn't enjoy my cocktail...the bathroom was disgusting & dirty. There were spots on the toilet seat & in the sink like someone had puked. Although I don't sit directly on public toilet seats, I took paper towel to clean off their toilet seat before I applied layers of toilet paper on it in order to do my business. Dirty paper towels on the floor, it as gross. They forgot to design a proper bathroom in their concept. Ordered a Ricky bobby drink & never got it, 25 minutes for my friends to get their desserts. They had finished their teas when the desserts arrived. Table was sticky all over & not clean. I would not go back. I gave two chances to be fair but my experience was not a good one.

One of my favourite meals in a long time. Oysters were some of the best I've had in a while. Meat plate was cooked to perfection. Dinner was absolutely fantastic. Whole family enjoyed very much!

Amazing decor, very warm & stylish. Everything on the menu looks good. We ordered lobster poutine & tuna tartare & it was delicious. The only only thing we have to comment about is the music... too much. Too busy. Not even too loud - even if it was loud, but too stressful for a dinner. More suited for a club & dancing. There is so much good music & good vibes out there. It was just not playing here tonight.

Unfortunately I have to give a bad review to Taverna. First time last night, was looking forward to it all week, especially after hearing so much hype from others. However I was VERY disappointed in the quality of the food. I ordered the salmon tartare which came with their « homemade guacamole ». My husband ordered the lobster poutine. Surprisingly it came quite quickly, under 15 min, which was suspicious given the time it would take to make fries, prepare fresh lobster, & prepare a tartare.... My guacamole was BROWN. Like muddy green brown. Looked like it was 4-5 days old. I asked 2 servers if it was supposed to be like that as being a guac addict, i know well that not only is guac supposed to be VIBRANT GREEN but also brown=not fresh. First server basically brushed me off saying yeah yeah. 2nd had a worried face & went to ask the chef. (points to her) She returned saying yes, as it is mixed with a brown tamari sauce..... It didnt taste bad, salmon was fresh, however after googling « Guacamole with Tamari sauce », my suspicions were validated : GUAC IS STILL SUPPOSED TO BE GREEN! So not only do I believe they literally lied to me, they served a customer days-old brown-ass guac & tried to pass it off as « its mixed with brown sauce ». Husband also had 4 pieces of shell in his lobster poutine... Went home -60$ out, very hungry but no appetite. The only positives was that young 2nd waitress & my wine was chilled. Never going back. Sad...
