This place is definitely the local sports bar around the island. It's very friendly and laid back. The bartenders Jackson and CJ were both really kind and gave good service. I give the burger a 10000 out of 10, the tomato soup a 8/10, and the pasta with clams unfortunately a 0. The pasta tasted awful and old honestly. BUT. The other foods, drinks, and service more than made up for that. Will definitely be back. read more

We had a great experience here. We shared the Fish & chips, Mac & cheese-we added bacon. The food was good. It's cute and kinda an old fashioned vibe. It was pretty empty, but it was a week day mid afternoon-kinda late lunch early dinner. Our waitress was great, gave some good suggestions and was very attentive-but not overbearing the top. read more

I ordered truffle fries, some sliders, and six shots of tequila. I believe the food is of quality, the service is fast, and the drinks were good and did more than get the job done. A friend got engaged! read more

I love the half-basement setting! It set the tone for the meal. I had an old fashion, burger, and glass of Merlot. All were great. Although, the Merlot came a few minutes after my meal in stead of along with it; but it is a tavern so I'm not unhappy about that! The burger was great, I didn't add anything other than how it came. The mustard, cheese, jalapeños and bun complemented the high quality of the juicy patty. read more

We ate our way through Coronado and this was by FAR the highlight in terms of food. The ambiance was so much more than we anticipated too. Great moody lighting and fun music. We were expecting casual pub fare, but the food here was so much more than that! Andre was our server and he was so knowledgeable about the menu and the drinks as well. We started with the cavatapi Mac and cheese and the Caesar, both were excellent. After that we enjoyed the chicken pot pie and the Wagyu steak tacos. The tacos were honestly the best I have ever had. I would return to the Tavern just for the tacos ! read more

Came here with family as they were visiting on a Saturday. Location was ideal since it was right across the beach. We were seated outside. The waitress was attentive and patient- especially since we had 20 people ordering. We tried various items: chicken pot pie 10/10 Fish and chips 8/10 Tacos 6/10 - hard to compete with tacos in San Diego Soup and grilled cheese 7/10 - I wish there was more flavor to the soup. The food for everyone came out at different times that most were done before others received their food. The food was okay. Ideal the drinks and location was the only good thing about this place. read more

Came for a work outing and had an alright time. Staff we had did a good job, and restaurant itself was clean and run pretty smoothly. I got the Grilled Bacon & Blistered Shishito Pepper Burger and a Pupil. Overall there wasn't anything wrong with it, but had this liquid smoke thing that was a little off putting for me. Many good burgers in the city for more in the $15 range, so at $21 I was hoping for a little more both in flavor & portion size. I'll still come back and try something different as the menu had a lot of variety read more

We've dined in here twice already 'coz I like that they change their Menu from time to time. We always sit on their Patio area 'coz we always have our 18 years old Dog Bambam with us. We like their steak and pork chop, we used to get their Porterhouse and Pork chop here , but when we came back after a few weeks, the menu had changed again. The ones that we got this time were: *GRILLED MEXICAN WHITE PRAWNS - Pickled vegetables, fried shishito peppers, grilled lemon, and spicy romesco. *GRILLED PICAHHA WAGYU STEAK - Marble potatoes, spinach, pearl onions, and chimichurri. *FRESH LINGUINI & LITTLE NECK CLAMS - Roasted corn, white wine saffron broth, and chervil. *POT PIE - Vegetable veloute, fresh herbs, and puff pastry crust. *FRENCH MARTINI - Grey goos Vodka, blackberry, pineapple, and lemon. *CHURROS & CHOCOLATE The GRILLED PICANHA WAGYU STEAK  that my Son got was very tender and flavorful, I loved the Spinach and Chimichurri on it, as always their steaks here are so good, but my son said that the portion was small, but it was a good steak. My Husband's LINGUINE & LITTLE NECK CLAMS, it was Aldente and had a good seafood taste , the Linguini tasted freshly made, but my husband also said that portion was small size, but again that it tasted good. And I got my Chicken Pot Pie, it was an amazing one, the pastry was so crisp and it was a well seasoned chicken pot pie. Our Shrimp appetizer was very small in Portion, but the Taste was so good and very fresh , we like it a lot, my son was able to eat them 'coz they weren't too spicy at all. For Dessert we noticed that they didn't go all out making dessert here, there weren't much selections. My son chose the Churros and it was okay, just typical Churros. For my Drink, I always get their  FRENCH MARTINI every time that we visit, it's a delicious drink, it had a very fruity flavor. I hope that when they change the Menu again, they put back the Porterhouse and Pork Chop 'coz those are our Favorite here. The ambiance is nice, it has an open space, and the service was great. Parking is tough, but Coronado is a nice place to walk around, so even if you park a bit further you will enjoy sight-seeing around the mini shops, restaurants, beach, and the Hotel Del Coronado. read more

Fantastic. We love everything about this place. Our bartender TJ was so friendly. We weren't real hungry so we split the sliders, they were delicious. The fries were so good. Loved the atmosphere as well. Can't wait to go back. read more

Food: incredible. Seriously. The tacos were other worldly, and the Brussels. Oh, the Brussels. 100% recommend. Well rounded spirit list- with low/high end options. Service: it is 4th of July so I cannot really judge service. Ambiance: gorgeous location! Very cute inside too. Minus points for the restroom... you're gonna have to hover. read more

While staying nearby, in downtown San Diego, we came to Coronado for the evening and stopped in here... We decided on The Tavern because of all the great reviews and this place definitely didn't disappoint! Our service was excellent, from the host greeting & seating us, to our server and the speed of our service. The menu was really nicely done, loaded with nice bar bites, as well as bigger plates. Wine line and cocktails are done quite nicely here too. We started with their Mexican shrimp which was grilled and served with their romesco - It was OUTSTANDING! The shrimp was fresh and tasted great on their own, but the sauce and pickled veggies were a very nice touch. But while eating this, we were still deciding on main courses and after seeing the sliders walk by, I wanted those. I NEVER order sliders, as they're typically overdone. But something about the way these looked and the description of them and their burger in the menu told me I was in for a treat. I most definitely had some of the BEST hamburger I've ever had! The sliders were the best for sure, but if they do their burgers that same way (referring to the meat, which is local grass fed beef, hand packed, perfectly cooked to temp over a wood flame, with a kiss of smoke to the fatty parts of the meat - WOW!), then they probably make some of the best burgers I've ever had! Highly recommend stopping in! read more

The service and food were INCREDIBLE! Our server, Ava, checked on us all the time, making our experience wonderful. Our drinks were always full and we were never waiting long.

Cannot recommend this place enough (I usually don't do reviews but I seriously had to)! read more

Nice location but a bit overpriced. The ceviche for $17 was pretty high for like 3 shrimps cut up, the chips were stale, but the seasoning was spot on. The wedge salad was pretty much a 1/8 of a tiny ice berg lettuce cut in 2 with 3 cherry tomatoes cut in half, dried up bacon bits, literally 4 little slicers of red onion, and the smallest amount of blue cheese dressing, had to ask for some more on the side. The steak was small and meh, but the tavern burger not on menu - just burger with lettuce tomato and cheese was phenomenal!!! I would come back for the burger only. (Ok - more like take out burger instead of returning) We had also Mac and cheese, kind of liked it but didn't, it was a bit wet and runny so not like thick cheese or a lot of cheese, it was just a bit close to ok but also a bit like I want to return this because it's not only watery but over cooked pasta... maybe the small amount of crusty cheese on top was perplexing. read more

Wonderful service. Great food. Delicious drinks. Wagyu tacos to share: great. Tomato soup: molten and so good. If you like tomato soup and French onion soup style cheesy meltiness, this is for you. Hubs got the wagyu steak and loved it. I got the cauliflower steak (cauliflower done three ways) and it was good. A little spicy, well seasoned, very tasty. Iron skillet cookie was good, but be warned it is not the chocolate chip cookie my husband expected. Cocktails were all wonderful. read more

This is not your average bar with bar food. It's a fine dinning experience disguised as a hole in the wall bar. The service was 5 star! The food quality was amazing!

Came here to watch the SDSU game so sat at the bar. Nice spot "underneath" the building, hence Tavern. Well decorated and spacious. All wood goes well with Tavern feel. Bartenders, particularly CJ, were friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our sangria and beers with crispy chicken wings appetizer as well as the chicken pot pie and pork chops with risotto. Holy moly the pork chops were huge! You can't really tell in my photo but it's a big plate. All tasted well and cooked well. Other people's food looked really good too. Definitely a place to come check out. If I lived nearby, I'd be a regular here. read more

Very disappointed given the price point. The Mac and cheese was so bland, the shrimp were super over cooked. The chicken pot pie had no salt and was also so bland. The fish and chips was ok, the French fries were really good that was the only thing worth spending money on. All in all I'm super upset we spent $100 on this crappy food. It wasn't disgusting just not good. That's why it gets 2 instead of 1 star. If it were half the price I wouldn't be leaving this bad review. read more

Staff is super friendly and the food was good. A but if a wait but it was to be expected on a Friday night. Had the halibut and filet mignon tacos along with the brussels sprouts. The standout was the ancho chile balsamic reduction in the sprouts - it was absolutely delicious. The Ginger & Sage cocktail was so good and made with local Malahat ginger rum. The Fig & Orange was slightly sweet and perfect for the season. Dubs Jr. got the kid's burger which he enjoyed and we loved that they had lots of options for kids that were more than just mac and cheese and chicken fingers. We definitely will return due to the great service and food. Just a note- check recent photos and the website for their current/seasonal menu offerings. read more

We walked by and didn't realize there was a gem of a place right next to Del Coronado hotel. Excellent food for an unassuming restaurant and our waiter was great.

My boyfriend and I came on Valentine's for dinner. They have cozy seating inside or outside, with heat lamps available outside. For food we ordered the crab cake, steak tacos, pork chop, beet salad with chicken, and the cake dish available. It was disappointing to be served a single crab cake, it would have been nice to have been prewarned on this. The flavor and taste was good though. Steak taco flavoring and portion sizes were on point. Probably my favorite part of the meal. The pork chop sauce was delightful, but the risotto was bland on its own and unseasoned. I had ordered the beet salad with chicken, but they interpreted that I wanted a beet salad and the chicken entree. We had to wait a little longer for this to be corrected. It was such a small portion and so plain that I forgot to take a picture. The dessert took an immense amount of time to be served, and was subpar. Some pieces of cake were doused in bourbon whereas other pieces were completely dry. The atmosphere is cool and drinks are yummy but food was not so great. read more

Very thing was delicious. We walked in right at the start of the dinner hour. The was great--simply put a burger and fries and fish and chips. We gave up one order of fries for a side salad. We also couldn't pass up and order of roasted Brussels sprouts. The cocktails were yummy and refreshing. To top it off, we were served a freshly in store baked chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream and a candle for the birthday lady. Last but not least, the service was excellent. How gracious a place. Loved it and would highly recommend. Thanks! read more

Came here on a Friday right when happy hour was starting, got greeted and seated quickly, staff was very friendly and attentive. The ambiance was nice cool dark, very nice on a hot day, nice breeze inside. Also really cool features they had. Very rustic but modern in a way. Food was amazing! We got the Brussels sprouts and the steak tacos for appetizers, two IPAs and the perfect margaritas, very tasty and the drinks very well mixed. We also ordered some burgers, sandwich and the sliders. It was a good size amount only if you got some starters though. Overall very nice place and will def recommend to all of my friends! read more

Came here today with some friends. Very cute spot in Coronado. Great vibe and fun ambiance. Also not crowded which was so refreshing on a busy Saturday in Coronado! My friends and I were immediately seated and had a very friendly and attentive server throughout our experience. We decided to try multiple items on the menu: Brussel sprouts- 8/10 very good but drenched in balsamic so after eating a couple the sauce was too heavy to continue eating Chicken pot pie- 10/10 very good! Wings- 8/10 flavorful but a bit dry Caesar salad- 6/10 nothing to write home about Filet Mignon Tacos- 6/10 hard to compete with tacos in San Diego! Overall, it's a relatively small menu but I'd come back for the ambiance, service and to try more food items! read more

Tavern - New American Near Me - Coronado, California

What a unique underground place, The Tavern is certainly not below grade. Located in the middle of the Coronado village it is to find and miss. (Parking in this area is extremely tough - so plan accordingly.) Look for the recessed "Tavern" name and then walk down(see my pic of our view from our booth) a set of stairs to the restaurant. Once inside, it is very reminiscent of the old dark wood, lowly lit eastern taverns - a very homey feel. We were grazing our way through Coronado and stopped mid-afternoon. We started with their Great Old Fashions. These were good and served appropriately garnished, see pic. But most impressive were the Angus Sliders. The burgers were prepared as requested and were quite juicy for a small patty. The buns, while oversized, didn't overpower the beef. These were a nice snack. The French Fries were average and were under salted (this is good since you can always add salt). Which led to the salt and pepper dish (see pic), in which to get a pinch. Our server was attentive and knew their menu. We liked our visit and our Sliders. read more
