Went today for lunch for the first time and I absolutely LOVED the birria tacos! My friend had pastrami sandwich after asking if the make their own. Excellent food and the staff was so welcoming. I work nearby so I will be back!

Nice spot for a drink and some apps with good happy hour deals. A little loud and I felt like my seat on the booth was on a roller coaster every time the person seated behind me moved. Service was attentive and quick. Chicken quesadilla app was large and tasty with lots of soft carmelized onions. Fries were crisp hot and tasty as were onion rings. Drinks were strong and okay. Will give them another visit during happy hour to try some more appetizer choices!

We come here almost once a week with our two elementary schoolers. The staff is always kind, solicitous, and patient, even when one of our kids wants a number of "customizations" to her mac and cheese order. We always look to find a table near the one tv that isn't playing sports but rather is playing funny videos to keep our kids engaged so that the adults can catch up on our days. The cocktails are good and filled to the rim. And, we always appreciate the rotating specials menu so there is something new to try each time for the adults. Can't ask for much more in a go-to neighborhood restaurant.

(Last visited on 1/30/2022.) Hanging out in the are with a friend of ours and she swears by this place! She always tells us that she comes to meet up here with some of her other friends so we finally were able to meet up them to check this place out! Atmosphere/Appearance: From the outside this place just looks like a decent-sized house with a small parking lot in the back. You may need to find street parking depending on how many people are hanging out that day. Once inside you're immersed in the family-owned atmosphere, a true tavern feel and it just feels like a cozy neighborhood bar. From the look of the wooden floors, the big windows letting in lots of natural light and the open floor plan, this place just really invites you in and makes you feel welcomed. Service: I can't remember who took care of us, but we sat at the bar and as wanted, our bartender was awesome. She was a pro, made great conversation and it didn't take long for it to feel like she was just a friend hanging out with us as well. Food: I've heard great things about the wings here so that's what I was here for! I got to try the Buffalo and the Garlic Parmesan. Both were very good and straightforward. The flavors were great, but they didn't absolutely blow me away of anything. I'd still come back for these though. Value: It's a tavern so everything is affordable and straightforward. If you're a drinker, you already know what to expect if you going to be having a few while you eat. This place won't break the bank. In conclusion, I really enjoyed my time here and I look forward to making a return visit in the near future!

My husband and I went for a weeknight dinner just the two of us. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday night in both the bar and restaurant, which was nice to see. He was hoping for a steak but neither the regular menu or the specials had steak even though I had seen other Yelp reviews with nice looking steaks. He ordered a steak & cheese and I ordered chicken & waffle sliders. Not being a spice girl, I knew I was not interested in the honey sriracha so I asked for that to be omitted and asked to have the maple bacon aioli on the side. I should have tasted it before I spread it on half my sandwich, as it also had a kick. Instead of French fries I opted for brussel sprouts, which were plentiful and tasty. I expected they would be prepared as they are listed under the appetizers, but they were not. They were just roasted without any toppings. Food and service were good, but I wish the 3 children that ran thru the restaurant repeatedly the entire time we were there (and at one point almost crashed into a server that had food in her hands) had been corralled by their parents as it was not only disruptive, but also dangerous since they were running out into the parking lot. We will visit again.

A last minute happy hour get together with a friend after work. Quiet atmosphere with attentive wait staff. Great menu from appetizers to full dinner meals. I opted for the burger, ok it was a double burger, burger was good though I felt it was missing something. The description stated there was a tavern sauce on it, I didn't taste anything, saw a sauce like substance, but no additional flavor other than the perfectly cooked burgers. Have to admit, I'm all about the sauce. I like a lot of flavors!!! The French fries were very good. Nice crunch with a soft center. Washed it all down with an Aligash White. I'll come back again to try the quesadilla!!! Ended the night with a cappuccino.

Bartenders make good drinks! Great night and weekend crowd. Food is basic American cuisine. Good place to grab a burger, app or sandwich.

I've passed Amici Tavern so many times and finally decided to go there for lunch last month. I ordered the Birria tacos and nachos. I was pretty impressed with my birria tacos as they were much better than I expected them to be considering it's not an authentic Mexican restaurant! On the other hand, I was really disappointed with my nachos. The cheese was barely melted and they didn't have regular salsa for me to dip the chips into. My dad liked his burger and fries. I would return to try new things next time!
