Taverna - Jacksonville

We sometimes forget about how excellent Taverna is. Locally owned in trendy San Marco, with outdoor seating perfect for people watching. Service is always on point, exciting food offerings. One should not miss out on this restaurant. Two thumbs up

I’m not sure if I have ever had a more perfect night Between the company and the atmosphere my night was amazing! What a flawless evening! We did not put a cap on our night, we had appetizers, main meal, bottle of wine, and dessert cocktail… so the price of our meal wasn’t small but TOTALLY worth it! Our server Ryan was spectacular! Food servings HUGE so we definitely could have shared our food to make the cost more manageable, of course the left overs will be consumed soon so not to worry ; Next time we will make our reservations for outside and start at the bar!

What a lovely restaurant! Decided on Taverna for my birthday dinner. Ended up being a great choice! My dinner was fantastic, as was my husband’s. But the highlight for me was the espresso martini! It was hands-down the best one I’ve ever had and I’ve had a few! From start to finish it was a great dinner experience. Our server was lovely. Taverna is in a great spot, right in San Marco.

Amazing service!! Staff got us in quick, seated us, and served us in the perfect timeframe. The food was absolutely delicious and high quality so we didn’t mind the higher prices. Great spot in the heart of San Marco. Really classy vibe inside. They have a nice bar as well and specialty drinks. Highly recommend to folks who are looking to jump in for a nice lunch or dinner.

My boyfriend and I went last night to celebrate one year together! We had a reservation and we were greeted and sat by a hostess immediately. The food was really good! He got the salmon which I preferred over the fettuccine honestly. I would highly recommend the salmon it was to die for. We got truffle fries and a charcuterie board for appetizers. The truffle fries were amazing (we ate all of them between just the two of us)! The charcuterie board was a really good deal as you can pick up to 5 cheeses and meats for only $25. The tiramisu cheesecake for dessert was probably the best part! Our waitress was absolutely amazing! Our drinks were always full and she was very attentive and helped us navigate the menu easily. The only negative thing I can say is that it was pretty loud as we were sitting in a booth right by the bar but that’s to be expected! We will definitely be coming back!
