Came here on numerous occasions in the past 6-7 years but I am finally leaving a well deserved review as I held my baby shower here this past weekend. I always had a great experience here so I knew I could trust them to cater such a significant event. First, Kathy, who I exchanged multiples emails with, was always very quick and informative whenever I had any questions. She let me come by the day before to drop off the party decor and other belongings which helped a lot. The two servers/bartenders, whose names I forgot to get, were the absolute sweetest and very efficient throughout the whole event. All the guests complimented the food and left with a full stomach. 100% recommend this establishment for a date night, girls night out or a private event! read more

Food was amazing and delicious and I felt like I was in a movie set. Inside of the restaurant is so beautiful. And the waitress was so friendly recommending a delicious plate. Great place for a date course. A beautiful restaurant. read more

Lovely design of the restaurant, great for a little photoshoot by the bookshelves. We came for Valentine's Day and the service was very slow - they had about 1 to 2 waitstaff for the entire back area. (FYI the tap water was disgusting). The food was just okay, we had the steak and it was sorely disappointing for the price. I would say this is a one and done kind of restaurant - not awful, not amazing, just average. read more

Went in for a birthday dinner with family and left so satisfied. The ambience, aesthetic and service were perfect! The Braised Beef Shot Rib and Grilled octopus sealed the deal. Definitely coming back again read more

We wanted burgers and had been meaning to try Tavern 157. Was a quiet night, we didn't know what to expect but it couldn't have gone better! Possibly the best burger we've ever eaten out, definitely the best in a very long while!! Exquisite meat, great char, cooked perfectly, every bite was delicious. The fries and onion rings on the side were delish, hot and not greasy. We had two burgers and shared a few beers, left very satisfied. The place is nice, has a great atmosphere, our server was working solo but never showed stress, did a great job. Will definitely go back. Recommend! read more

Tavern 157 is small but has a pretty nice interior! It also closes late. They serve asian bar food and a lot of items on their menu interests me but I got the seafood pasta. I loved the noodles and it came with a decent amount of seafood so I enjoyed my order! read more

It's time to update the review as I feel like Tavern 157 just keeps getting better. The drinks are fire. The menu is on point. I really like sitting at the bar and getting a drink, but also give me their charcuterie board any day of the week. What makes this spot is the decor. It's quite interesting. It's almost giving medieval. The drinks are creative and delicious. The blood orange mojito and the yuzu drink (not sure what it's actually called) are my favs. I love taking friends here that I haven't seen in a minute. It's a great place to catch up or even take a date too. Come to think of it, I don't think I've had a full meal here. We only come for the drinks and the apps because the apps themself are delicious. Standby for a review about one of their entrees. read more

Came to Tavern 157 on a weekday for dinner and did not have a reservation but did not have any issues getting seated. The restaurant is located in an area of flushing with a good amount of street parking. The vibe of the place was so nice with large open windows to the street and we were able to get a seat by the window; felt like we were sitting outside but without being burnt by the sun. Our waiters were very nice and efficient. The menu was tapas-focused, but also had several nice entrees. We mostly got tapas and also got lobster risotto to share and everything was delicious! We also go the creme brûlée and lava cake for dessert and both were very good as well. This was a fresh place to go in flushing amongst all the Asian food; so if you are in the area but looking for something unique outside of Asian good, this is the perfect spot! read more

Ordered sooo much for such a good deal! For apps we got the seafood bisque, fish tacos, crab & spinach dip, and truffle fries. The crab & spinach dip was my favorite and my family really enjoyed the truffle fries! The seafood bisque was average but it was good and the fish tacos were pretty worth it because they give a decent amount of fish! As for entrees we got the tavern157 burger which was pretty good and the squid ink pasta and braids short rib & bone marrow which were my favorite! You have to get the squid ink pasta! Loved their playing as well. Highly recommended! read more

Tavern 157 - Octopus and a passion fruit margarita - Lounges Near Me - Flushing, New York

The place is really nicely designed. The food is delicious. My only gripe is that we went there with the idea of having a couple of cocktails along with our meal. While we did get to have a drink each, it was not an alcoholic drink. Since their location is directly across the street from a church, they cannot sell Alcohol. NY state laws. In New York City, the "200 Foot Rule" generally prohibits the State Liquor Authority (SLA) from issuing a liquor license for a business if it is on the same street and within 200 feet of an exclusively used church or school. read more

Good food and ambiance. A bit pricey but good unique food. Service was good. The octopus was our favorite. Definitely recommend it. Popcorn chicken was also good. read more

Came here for dinner with friend from Singapore. The ambiance was enjoyable like an old library with book stands, stairs, stools, and tables. The lighting was dim enough to project the library feeling too. Seamless integration I checked in with Yelp and i claimed free fries offer. Pretty generous on the fries I ordered a burger cooked medium rare. It was alright. I had better burger elsewhere tho... It was a cold night so I ordered hot water to warm my hands. I saw dust particles at the bottom of my cup of water, it seemed the cup wasnt properly cleaned. I ordered another cup of water, and it also came with particles in the bottom as well. Twice was enough. They need to clean up their dishes properly, cant believe it happened twice! : ( read more

I celebrated my birthday here with a total of 12 people. From the get go of making reservations the staff were kind and respectful. The day of they took care of my cake and listened to my approach on how i wanted presented. There was a total of 2 people working. Who were both quick, on their feet, and well mannered. The drinks came out quickly despite being 12 people and one person working the bar. The appetizers were delicious, appetizing, well served, and honestly picture worthy! the entrees were great not too much to choose for but each were delicious and had variety for everyone. The best part was that all 12 entrees came out together at the same exact time, so no waiting for one another. Overall the ambience was great for any occasion. 5 stars and nothing less such an amazing place and couldn't be happier with my decision of this place. read more

We placed an order to order four items on DoorDash for delivery. I knew something was odd when the bag of food seemed so empty. Upon checking the receipt, I realized food was missing. I called tavern directly and spoke to a lady. She tried to resolve by asking me to contact DoorDash and have it re-delivered or I can go pick up. I contacted DoorDash and opted for a refund because dealing with the hassle, wasting another 30 mins and tipping again simply didn't make sense. Not only did I waste my time, I lost out on the tip money for the DoorDash delivery person. It wasn't his fault at all. I contacted Tavern again to inform them that I got a refund and mentioned to them how horrible this experience was. The lady insist that they can remake the order and I can go pick up. Seriously? You want me to waste my time to go pick up and then head back home to eat what would become cold food?As continue to speak my mind, she offered a credit to dine in. It's a nice gesture, but meaningless after wasting 20 mins BTW, when I called the second time... James on the receipt picked up and he was clueless. He didn't apologize or acknowledged that he messed up. Instead, he handed over the phone to the lady that I spoke to. read more

Really lovely space and ambiance. They were very careful about the details. I wish the menu had had more descriptions. Yelp was incredibly clutch in figuring out what to get. The peach bubble was very pretty and fruity. A little more volume would have been great. Lobster "medallions" were no medallions, but it was tasty and easy to eat. The short rib with bone marrow was decadent. I wish there had been a green or something crunchy. That being said, we really enjoyed the side of Brussels, side of risotto balls, and lava cake dessert. This part of the meal was actually the star. Our waitresses were attentive and comped us a glass of wine when our dessert was late - a memorable gesture. I'd recommend! read more

This restaurant is my all time favorite. It is quiet, and food is delicious overall. I came again specific for happy hours Monday-Friday 4-7pm. Domestic beer $5, red sangria $7. The most amazing part is half a dozen oyster for $8. The oysters were really big and fresh. Buratta cheese and risotto balls(on regular menu) are delish and beautifully presented. The only nitpicking is the seafood pasta(on regular menu) that noodles were overcooked. read more

Great date spot. Went on a Saturday night. Noise level was perfect for conversation. Salmon was missing something, spare rib was amazing and soft.

We came by a little after 6, and ordered the foie gras with uni, popcorn chicken, slow baked salmon and braised short rib with bone marrow. This was delicious. I haven't had foie gras in a while, but it was so good! Heads up, the popcorn chicken could be a little spicy. Salmon was ok, didn't find that super special. Cozy, warm winter-y vibes in the restaurant and for someone's birthday they even blasted the happy birthday song for that person. The tables and seating are pretty spacious and generous. Service was friendly. read more

It's a great spot to be on the weekend! This place is busy with a nice vibe, and you definitely need a reservation. First thing that caught my eyes was the cute wall lined with books and small tables are tucked inside a large frame. Super cute! We were here to celebrate my best friend's big birthday. We got the large table at the back of the restaurant. It was a bit chaotic because we are a large party of 18 and the restaurant was already busy. The food took a bit longer to come out but we were perfectly fine chatting and enjoy wine and cocktails. We had a couple bottles of The Prisoner Napa 2019 red blend. It was excellent! Our side of the table shared three appetizers. Oyster & Uni - Very fresh and tasty. If you like these two things, you would like this dish and the combo. Expensive $24 for 3 pieces. Burrata Cheese - Must order. So good! Served with heirloom tomatoes, prosciutto and guacamole. All my favorite ingredients. $15 Mussels - The sauce is so addicting! You will want to order a side order of bread to dip in the sautéed tomatoes, onion and bacon sauce. Smoked Chilean Sea Bass (Entrée) - Great presentation! Came out with a big glass cover and the server lifted it up and clouds of smoke appear in front of you. It was magical (lol). Sea Bass was perfectly cooked and flaky. Sauce was phenomenal! Wish they put more vegetables. Most of my friends had the Duck Breasts and Foie Gras. I had duck the night before and wanted fish tonight. Otherwise, the duck would have been my first choice. Turns out the fish was better in my opinion. Service could have been better and seems like they were under staff for a busy Sat. We asked for bread and it took like 20 minutes. They left out one of the duck entrée and offered to comp us. I mean I'll cut them a break because it was 18 of us. We were given three complimentary Lava chocolate cake with ice cream at the end. read more

Such a beautiful place inside. I love the rustic look. You can take photos in a photo frame with records in the back. The food was really good. The salmon was worth the purchase for $28. It was moist and had three sauces with it. My party enjoyed their salmon and said they would order again. Skin had a nice crisp. Although, the lobster squid ink fettuccine was a pricey ($52 meal), but I felt that it was the best in taste. I did not regret ordering. Every bite was a delight. I enjoyed the chunks of lobster. The tomato sauce was so good. It taste like it is from a top fancy restaurant. Crab and spinach dip had a great taste. The wonton chips were a perfect texture. Crispy but not hard. Popcorn chicken was great as well. Caramel ice cream is recommended. The lava cake with the ice cream is certainly worth it! The cake actually had chocolate lava inside. Service was great. The staff were accommodating. We called to say we were going to be 15 minutes late and they waited. Stress free. read more

As I walked into the antique library restaurant, I was immediately struck by the impressive wine bottle chandelier hanging above. The ambiance was cozy and romantic, perfect for a special occasion or intimate dinner. I started off with a glass of rich red Cabernet and ordered the foie gras uni appetizer. The dish arrived beautifully plated, with a bite sized portion of creamy seared foie gras topped by a small portion of uni. The flavors were delicate and balanced, with the richness of the foie gras offset by the slight brininess of the uni. The oysters were sumptuous and plump. They were a delicious appetizer. For my main course, I couldn't resist ordering the tomahawk steak. The enormous steak arrived on a large platter accompanied by a sprinkling of arugula and smattering of sweet cherry tomatoes. The steak was cooked to medium rare, with a crusty exterior. Squid ink pasta with tender chunks of lobster was beautifully displayed in a clear donut bowl. There was so much umami in one bite. Short rib with bone marrow was the best dish of the evening. The bone marrow was fatty and unctuous and sat on a small mound of creamy mashed potatoes. The short rib melted in my mouth. I would return and order the oysters, foie gras and uni, short rib and bone marrow. read more

My favorite thing we ordered were the oysters with uni. This was my first time trying uni and I thought everything tied in together perfectly with the addition of the fish eggs (loved the *snap* on those). The next memorable thing was the bone marrow that came with cute pieces of toast which works out great for portioning. I was really excited to try the duck breast and foie gras. I would have preferred the duck being cooked a little less or just juicier in general. Everything else on the plate such as the sauce, puree, and asparagus were good though. We also got the chicken wings but thought they weren't too special. I would have liked more of the sauce. Overall, I had a really good experience. The interior of the restaurant was cozy and staff were attentive. I didn't get to try any drinks but it seemed like the table next to us enjoyed their drinks. read more

Tavern 157 has a Victorian library vibe to it. It's sexy and dimly lit. The tables are spaced out nicely and not too close together. The bar is a great place to come for a drink as the atmosphere creates a semi-private experience away from the dining tables. The food was good. The drinks were well made and flavors were well balanced-- my passion fruit margarita was not too tart nor too sweet, alcohol taste was very subtle but the drink was strong--enjoyable and effective. Good food, drinks, ambiance, overall a really good experience and affordable. Staff was friendly. 1000% recommend getting the Braised Short Rib & Bone Marrow truffle mashed potato & kalbi glaze. read more

The food is delicious! Pricy but delicious! Tapas done with style. Portions are small but it's worth tasting.

I had the steak last night. It was cooked medium-rare as I asked. But it lacked seasoning. The sides were good, but the steak itself was just average. The atmosphere was nice, but I expected more from the main dish. read more
