The appetizers were great, my only negative note is I wish the soup was hotter esp with it being a bisque. There were nice chunks of lobster in it though, the salad was well dressed and refreshing and the fried goat cheese was piping hot and served with a marmalade which was delicious. For mains, I ordered the pancetta wrapped cod and Star got the gnocchi. The gnocchi was delicious and pillowy, the tomato confit was quite salty on its own. My cod was well cooked and very flaky, I wish the pancetta was crispy. It seems like the pancetta was just wrapped around after the fish was cooked which I found odd. The ratatouille underneath was well seasoned and delicious. Our server was super sweet and attentive, the service was great.

The mushroom bisque was beyond compare: silky and creamy and smooth. The peach caprese salad was inspired. The peaches were perfect, the balsamic was complex and tangy. My crab was crazy good. The Godiva chocolate crème brûlée was perfect. This place: this little place on a gravel parking lot in the middle of the countryside deserves all the accolades one can ladle on it. The staff, the tiny dining room, the ambiance: all on point. What a pleasure.

We started with the crab bisque, fried flounder sandwich with crab fries, chicken piccata and we took the chocolate cake home for later. Everything we had at the cafe was made to order and delicious, with obvious attention to presentation. The soup had nice chunks of crab, but a little less creamy than what I was used to. The flounder sauce and fish was very yummy, but I wished I had more of that sauce on the side. The filet was ever so slightlyyyyyy overcooked. My wife found the chicken too thick, thinking it could've been pounded a little thinner and with more capers. Other than that, she found the dish delightful. It would have been a five star night except for these nit picky issues.

This is generally the population of people that I see around this time of the day in Hockessin. The restaurant was clean, and the service was good. For my appetizer, I had the excellent mushroom soup. I had a steak frite, medium rare. It was so delicious. It came out with a ton of fries. The fries were the second best in Hockessin that I tasted. The meal was especially excellent because I bought a friend who is always fun to be around. I have not been to this restaurant for years. I would recommend it to anyone who love to eat steaks. The next time I am here, I will choose a different steak, and a non-fried vegetable.

Service was fine. Restaurant was clean. I ordered the Cajun Pasta It was described as this:…read more"Grilled chicken, shrimp and Andouille sausage, penne, Parmesan cream sauce, shallots, garlic, white wine, Cajun spices, Calabrian peppers" The cream sauce was a curdled paste. It was less a sauce and more of a discolored lumpy paste. The dish./meal was cold in some spots and hot in other spots - the shrimp was rubbery - so it was obviously microwaved. It was not made fresh. It was absolutely disgusting. Over all, it felt like an insult - uneatable and unpresentable. Whomever cooked it should be ashamed to allow such a dish to go out into the dining room. It was completely unacceptable. I had been to this restaurant a few times before as my wife likes it. My only other problems were that they occasionally served cold french fries. I am done with this place. I had originally heard that the people who opened it were part of a group that had successful restaurants and cared about serving good food. It is not that now. Until I hear otherwise, I will never return... not even if it were free. The waitress said she'd get the manager - but the manager never showed. I did not have to pay for the Cajun Pasta...

Walk in and the energy goes up a notch ...Nifty Fifty's is not for hushed conversationalists it's all about quality fast food fun! I had not had a milkshake in ages and there were so many incredible choices. Before deciding I watched one of the workers pouring milk into the milkshake machine ... a very good sign. Our server was smiling ...had a non stop smile, another good sign and she advised us to go small on the fries (We had debated one large for the two of us but right after she said go small a server walked by with a large fry order ...it could feed six of me! Good advice from the server ... another good sign!). They also have "the world's largest soda machine." I doubt it's the world's largest but it allows for some really creative drink choices! The food was awesome ...perfectly cooked, fries were great and that milkshake was drink with a spoon thick. When I asked for a glass of water our server apologized for not asking me if I wanted one earlier ...no need to apologize but that's top notch service.

Also, if you've read my prior reviews, you know I always want my water glass filled and the waiter made sure that was the case. It's a small detail that added to the overall comfort of the meal. The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, creating a relaxed setting for dinner. The food was well-prepared and flavorful. The veal meatballs were tender, the olive oil and sun-dried tomato dip for the bread was unique and yummy, and the mushroom agnolotti stood out as especially delicious. In fact, I can't wait to go back and have it again. Also, since it was Valentines weekend they added a cute little lips design on top of my drink. Another memorable touch was the mini firework placed on the butterscotch custard to celebrate my birthday. It added a bit of fun to the end of the meal and made the occasion feel special. My partner had the cannoli for dessert and it was definitely enough for two! Overall, Taverna delivered a very enjoyable dining experience, and I would be happy to return.

They sell a lot of their own merch so that's what you first see when you walk in. They have a bar area as well. The dining area towards the back is very spacious. And they have seating to accommodate small-large groups. The dim lighting adds to the calm vibe of the restaurant. The service is so fast. I feel like every item came out so quickly. And the servers checked in pretty frequently to clear the table, ask you if you need another drink, dessert, etc. it did feel a bit rushed. As a starter they give you their Ciabatta bread and the sun-dried tomato oil. The oil was DELICIOUS. I literally bought a jar to take home. For my drink I got the Fresca. It was good, very refreshing. For my entree I got the Linguini & Clams. It was good, could've used a bit more salt but the sauce was good. For desert I got the boozy affogato and it was delish.
