"my wife and I went to the end of a wonderful five-night stay in the opposite with a lot of joy on the basis of the wonderful menu. it was a disappointing experience that was made by probably the most inconspicuous server we had. they neglected to tell us about the nightly specialities; we were finished 3/4 of the way with our meal when another server on a table next to us said that the guests over a long list of specials. (one or two that we might have tried to get no bread and not offered; we asked our server about when she finally came back to our table (we were back, 3/4 finished, and had flown another server to bring us more water.) her answer to the brot: I can now get them a few if they want to tell their answer to us not about the specials: you seemed to be ready to order them rolled us one or two times the eyes. we're not hard to get along. my wife has numerous food sensitivity; she asked to make sure that there was no spinach in her house salat, because she could not have spinach, but the sweetness that came with her meal included. a portion spinach. they came to table only twice after eating, and both paint only b/c we flaged them to ask for water (it was the second dance where we asked for specializations and brot.) they did not bring us the scary after we had taken our teller, so after a long wait we went to table and paid there. eating was above average; my salmon was blanching, but the polnta served it was great. the meal of my wife was good, although the spinach was was was was wasted. we have not given any possibility for dessert because our server has never asked us. we mentioned our disregard with the host; the manager came out and got us $20 from a $90 meal. the other servers greeted the guests cordially and seemed over dinge; perhaps our only had a bad night. the restaurant was not busy (we came at 5:30 on a Sunday night and there was only one other table with guests when we arrived.) I still think that the menu is great, but not sure we go again."

"Our family has been patrons of Town Tavern for many years and we have never experienced anything like what we experienced this evening. My husband ordered the tavern tacos and I ordered the southwestern chicken sandwich with tater tots. When we received our food, my tater tots were room temperature or less. I asked our sweet waitress if she would mind to get us some fresh tots and make sure that they were hot. She did that in an efficient manner and brought us a nice warm basket of tater tots. As we were waiting for the tater tots I took a bite of my husband’s taco and the chicken was barely room temperature. He couldn’t bring himself to finish his second one thinking he may get sick. I bit into my sandwich at this point and my chicken was NOT warm. The waitress came to retrieve my sandwich and replace it with another one. I asked her to feel the inside of my sandwich and she agreed that it was less than acceptable! She brought me a new sandwich and the bacon was burnt!! She apologized several times and we appreciated her empathy. However, we spent $28 on a meal that left us unsatisfied and 100% certain that we will not be returning to dine there again. Neither the manager nor the cook came to our table to offer anything to rectify the situation. We left the restaurant feeling like we completely wasted our hard earned money. This is our honest testimony and unfortunately would have to rate our experience"

"4 stars for the food and our attentive waitress; 1 for the lack of management 's concern for our horrible seating arrangement for a celebration meal. It was our first visit. The reservation had been made a month in advance. We were looking forward to eating there after all the great reviews. What a disappointment. We splurged on my birthday meal while we are vacationing in Blowing Rock in September. We’d been wanting to try this restaurant for years and we were looking forward to the elegant atmosphere and the food. It was busy when we arrived. After waiting longer than we should have, we were seated in a less than ideal table, in spite of a table next to it that was tucked away. Since we had reservations, we asked if we could switch to an area with less traffic. We were told no, even though it was my birthday meal. So we had to accept the small table by a swinging door or leave. We decided to stay for the food and enjoy each other 's company. That’s when the music started. It seems that the night we went, they were having music on the lawn. No one had mentioned it during the call to make our reservation. We also found out that our table was near the two bathrooms. So we had traffic during our whole dinner from the waitresses delivering food to those eating outside and people coming in and out to the bathrooms. Every time the servers or patrons came and went, a blast of excruciatingly loud music (a large speaker was just outside the door) poured inside. We’d have to stop talking because we couldn 't hear each other. We asked again if another table had opened up. No. Take this table or leave it. We did end up talking to the manager again before we left to let him know how disappointed we were. Had we known about the music, we would’ve chosen another place. Everybody knows, he said. He didn’t care that we weren’t locals and didn 't know. He didn’t care that we’d had a disappointing experience that evening. We won 't be back."
