Tips for Washington Square Tavern
November 08, 2002
Who you know!. Went to this restaurant on a Thursday night. Was told it was a 30 minute wait, waited over an hour while many people (same number in our party) who arrived after us were seated. Apparently being friends with the host is imperative as a few people at the bar also noted to us.

What a waste of time and money. My boyfriend and I went there for dinner this past monday. We didn't have any alcoholic beverages, so I can't comment on the quality. I can comment on the food and the service though. Between the appetizer and the entrees we had at least a 35 minute wait. Neither of our dishes was what I would call complicated, so I fail to see what the long wait was for. Looking around, I at least felt better that everyone else near us was waiting just as long for their food. When our dinner did finally arrive I was very disappointed in my Lobster risotto. The rice was undercooked and there was not very much lobster in it. On top was deep fried fennel. In my opinion fennel does not take well to deep frying. We finished up and got out of there as soon as possible.

taverns' tastic. With hardworking and knowledgeable staff. I can't think of a better place to sit and quaff (easy now) a few damn decent martinis, pity that they favour Stella Artois over Spaten these days but at least they have the wonderful Belhaven to compensate. Best neighbourhood bar in the underserved Brookline area, foxy waitresses too!
