    I had the most amazing experience last night! The drink list was incredible and they had some amazing Mocktails which is truly important for me, since I’ve been sober for so long. When I got worried about the wine butter sauce, I asked the waiter if they could possibly cook it without wine (I hate being that person but I’m very paranoid) and they ended up making my pasta with an Alfredo sauce instead - which I begged them to up charge me for, because I didn’t want to be a pain. But they were so sweet and so accommodating, the food was INCREDIBLE and we sat out in the heated patio area. Amazing experience and the jazz was such a lovely touch. 10/10!

    Despite having reservations and tickets for the Jazz event , we sat well past many open 4 tops in the main dining room, into the farthest booth tucked in the back corner of the winterized patio. I had to wear my coat to stay comfortable. When I mentioned that we had tickets to see the band, the hostess replied, "You'll be able to hear them from here," as she walked away. The food and drinks were wonderful, but as with the last time, the server was poorly trained. He'd come to get food and drink orders but left empty glasses and piles of plates. I had everything stacked up neatly at the end of the table to make it obvious and easy, but nope. He just left them there. This was my second and final time trying Worthington Tavern.

    Loved the venue, but was underwhelmed with the food. Based on other reviews was expecting better than usual food. The smash burger was not truly a smash burger. Thicker than most, not crispy, and really not seasoned. Others in my party weren’t overly happy with their choices, but didn’t taste their food and will not review. In addition to my burger, the steak fries were soggy and “blah” tasting. I am hoping that maybe the main chef was off duty (it was a Monday night) and possibly these misses were because of this reason.
