This place reminds me of being in the woods, in a cozy-home feel and the food is comforting. I took my girls out for brunch and we all loved our dishes and service. I ordered a bottomless mimosa and was not disappointed. Our server kept my glass topped.
The Craftsman Tavern is a must visit. Unique and delicious cuisine, an extensive beverage menu and always a lively atmosphere. Due to their popularity we had to wait for a bit for initial service but when Brittany finally got to us (she had multiple tables sat at the same time), we had excellent and attentive service lacking for nothing. My only complaint was my salmon looked delicious but sadly overcooked so pretty dry. On the other hand, the skirt steak was delicious and was a huge portion. Cooked perfectly. Next time I will opt for that instead. Oh, and if you do go - must try the "crack addicting" truffle popcorn!
Don't go if you want prime rib. Au jus super salty and it was covered in a pool of it and meat tough!! Small portions for the price. Steak was also tough. Good service. If you like to watch TV while you dine there's about a half dozen of them in a small space.
