A Gem of a Place in All Ways. This is a terrific place, with atmosphere, a truly interesting array of great food at extremely reasonable prices, and a wonderful choice of modestly priced wines and beers. I've had bar food, full dinners, and specials there.... imaginative, accomplished chef; warm and knowledgeable service. When they have music, it's first rate. Try the specials, but I've yet to have a meal that wasn't delicious. This is a gem of a place, and the combination of A+ food, A+service, A+ atmosphere, and A+ warmth (and A+ music) is a delight.

Great neighborhood tavern!. The Tavern on the hill is in my opinion one of the least recognized places on the hill and easily one of the best. One might think that Chestnut Hill is full of small neighborhood bars, but in fact it is sadly lacking. Tavern has a great combination of food, beer, and atmosphere. The food is of particular note, it is easily the best pub fare food on the hill and pricing is extremely reasonable. The real upside to me is that the chef puts on a real high class dinner menu for those who want more of a restaurant experience. The staff is very friendly and attentive, they will go out of their way to make your experience there the best that it can be. In short Tavern is...

"We were there celebrating two birthdays. Our server Faith was wonderful. She was attentive without being intrusive and knowledgeable about the menu. We were a table of 6 and ordered quite a bit of food, some of which was great and others lackluster. The bao buns were great and the small calamari salad was huge and those who had it said delicious. The spareribs were good as well as the edamame dumplings, although the way those were served made it hard to fully enjoy. Each dumpling should be on a individual type spoon so you can enjoy the soup part as well as the dumpling. The way they were served in one large bowl with only one spoon made it so the soup part is left at the bottom. I did request extra spoons from the expediter but they never came. The worst part of our appetizer course was somehow an item was switched to another in the computer and served to us. It had shellfish in it and that wasn’t known when someone at our table who doesn’t eat shellfish ate it. The sashimi was good but the tuna tartare thing was really bad. The entrees we had were the duck, which I was told was delicious, the miso cod, which was fishy, the whole fish which was tasteless, the lobster fried rice, which was okay but lacking flavor. The best dish was the black pepper beef, it was delicious and elegantly served. We had all the sides and all were quite good especially the eggplant and the wasabi mashed potatoes. It was a nice evening but it felt a little stale for a Starr restaurant."
