    Town Square Tavern is a new comer on the restaurant scene in Keene. The facility housed a long established Keene restaurant. I think the folks at Town Square have taken it up a notch. They shifted the entry door to the side closing the old, wind tunnel ramp entrance. The lighting has been improved and they installed a new, pleasant bar. The food was very good. I had short ribs on pasta and Mary had salmon. For desert we shared a cinnamon roll topped with ice cream on a hot skillet. It delightful. The manager stopped by the table to chat and the waitress, Grace, did a great job. In short we will go back.

    I found this place to be overrated. The food was nothing special and honestly not great. There was no cocktail menu, a small wine list, and it took longer than it should to get a glass of wine and beer. We got the lobster dumplings which did not taste good, and the wings and rings were messy, plus there was only a few pieces of calamari. We were very unimpressed.

    Our server was fantastic! She was helpful with the menu and offered great advice on the dishes we selected. A manager presented the wine to us and asked us about our experience. The space and dinner was wonderful and allowed us to have a nice 2-hour dining experience. The food was spectacular. I had the Whole Branzino, which was cooked to perfection with layers of flavors and spices. My husband had the Angry Lobster Pappardelle, which was also fantastic. Pasta was cooked perfectly with big chunks of lobster meat, and again amazing flavors. We couldn't decide which dish we liked most. All around a great meal. So glad we gave this new place a try - were excited for round two! Just moved to the top of our list of favorite restaurants in the area.

    We had a 8:30 pm dinner reservation on a Friday night which was Valentine’s Day. We tried calling the restaurant multiple times on our way (we were driving 45 min) to let them know it we were running a little late, and we sent a message via the open table app as well. I called multiple times but was only left with voicemail but voicemail was recording was from the previous restaurant and a different name which was really confusing. We figured they were so busy being valentines night they couldn’t pick up the phone so we carried on to the restaurant. Initially finding the restaurant was challenging and confusing because there was no sign for the name of the restaurant on the awning or door. No signage outside. When we entered the restaurant, it was stark, with bright lights and looked more like an office space than a restaurant. One couple sat a 2-top blankly sitting there seemingly waiting for something. We went to the hostess stand when the hostess unexpectedly told us, “We’re closed.” It was now 9:00 pm. We were so confused. I told her we had a reservation and how I had called a few times on our way but no one picked up. The hostess sheepishly explained they had run out of all of their food and the whole night of service was a bit of a nightmare with many things gone wrong. We were perhaps spared a bad dinner and the lackluster ambiance and atmosphere itself made us realize we likely won’t go back to actually taste their food. The place is not, cozy, obviously completely disorganized with not being able to achieve the professional basics, much less obviously unprepared for a Friday night of dinner service on Valentine’s Day. My sense is that this new restaurant is not ready to be open, struggled with management and may not survive long enough to get to the other side. But a sign and a voice message machine that correctly states your current restaurant might be a food place for them to start. 🤦‍♀️

    My husband and I finally had the opportunity to dine here tonight. We are wildly disappointed. Bright lights, and noisy, like dining at the airport. Terrible, flaky staff. Had to ask for silverware, ask for our drinks multiple times, waited an hour for cold risotto and a salad. Oh, we had hummus too, no flavor but we ate it because we were so hungry. Some people got rolls and butter, we were not offered any. The manager visited the table next to us four times…they had waited 10 minutes longer than us……free drinks and dessert for them, not even a hello to us! If you want to feel invisible and wait over an hour for ok food, give it a try! I’m so flipping disappointed!

    The hangar steaks that we had were delicious- although a bit too much strong sauce for my taste. Too many frites. Would like to have had a vegetable instead of huge pile of fries. Our server neglected to tell us the special - ribeye steak, which my husband and I would have definitely chosen. And how could you be all out of one of your dessert options: the skillet cinnamon roll? Especially on Valentines Day!!

    This is our first time eating at this restaurant since it changed hands and name. We always enjoyed our dining experience when it was Luca's and this time was just as good.

    Great tasting food and excellent service. The only issue was with the small serving of short ribs that could have been larger. Bread with the meal would have also been nice, but overall, a great experience. We will be back.
