   The food was, as usual, outstanding! I had mussels followed by panna cotta ;and my friend had the salmon tacos and cheese cake. We both loved our choices, but she suggests the salmon tacos be served on a tray/platter with raised sides, rather than the flat board. It is a messy dish, delicious but messy. I have no complaints, and can't wait to go back again!

   We've always enjoyed Gabriel Archer. Food is excellent, wine is above average, service is above average, ambience is above average. The cost, although only reflecting current inflation, is a little on the high side, but generally in line with comparable restaurants.

   The pasta night was outstanding with wine paring for all three courses. Chef Riccardo and his team prepared an exceptional meal and in particular the Cavatelli Alla Ricotta, which hopefully will become a permanent addition to the menu. The winery has teamed with an Italian vineyard, Sassaia, to do some interesting endeavors going forward. Looking forward to the next event!

   Our group of 6 ate at the tavern this afternoon. It was a nice experience. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly. The food was outstanding. Everyone loved their meal. We would definitely go again. Would like to go in better weather to try their patio. The only negative inside was the inability to hear well. At one point a couple tables were empty and we could hear. Would also like to come back for the tour.

   We have always enjoyed our meals and wine at Gabriel Archer Tavern, especially their brunch menu. We started off with BBQ Meatballs, then my wife had the Virginia Ham Benedict and I had their Shrimp & Grits! We enjoyed the meal with a couple of Mimosas.

   Amazing experience! Jenna was fantastic and took great care of us. The Valentines meal was amazing and cannot recommend the wine pairing enough.

    Really pleasant night for a Valentine’s dinner. The prix fixe meal was only advertised through Open Table, not on the GA Tavern web site so having planned two dinners, we cancelled the second reservation for the Sat night. Even though it was a set dinner there were three options for the third course (fish, lamb and veg) and two dessert options (choc lava cake and chestnut panna cotta). All 4 courses were sublime with really subtle complementary flavours and the wine pairings worked though we do not like sparking wines with our desserts.
