Enjoyed their patio, I love the vibe there. Food was ok - I had higher expectations. The mushroom campanelle (first photo) was greasy and had a strong pork flavor. I doubt it was prosciutto, likely pork fat. Couldn’t eat much, but the waiter was kind enough to exclude from the bill. The gnocchi (second) were great - soft texture, nutty flavor, I enjoyed that meal a lot.

Food was pretty good. I had the special pasta spicy lamb sausage rigatoni. It was very good and they make great pasta sauces with well cooked pasta. Brussel sprouts during happy hour were very tasty and portion size was good. My friend had a vegetarian spaghetti pasta which also had great flavour. I ordered a happy hour beverage, I think it was something about a plane. It tasted good and I would try another variation or their cocktails again.Overall food was good. Service is okay. For a weekday it wasnt very busy, but I felt like they wanted us out. We were only there for 2 hours. One thing I did not like was hour noisy the restaurant was. I felt like I had to shout to talk to my friend who sat across from me. Tables were tight and the people next to us almost smacked my friend in the face

all the food was amazing but I really recommend the ragu pasta and the sticky toffee pudding for dessert it was to die for. Our server was fun, very attentive as well topping our waters constantly and had a great pace with us throughout the night. Unfortunately I did not catch his name but he was the taller male with dark hair serving jan 19th at 6pm. We really enjoyed everything and will definitely be coming here a lot more such a great spot!

Went there for a date night and it was a great ambiance with the lighting, music and decor. Our server was excellent, recommending dishes and letting us taste the wine. We got the cacio and Pepe which is very rich and peppery, and the rabbit ragu pasta special. Both very rich and tasty. For dessert the panna cota with light and tasty. Highly recommend this restaurant, a hidden gem for West end locals.

I have gone to Tavola for dinner for years. I would love to give it a 5 star review because of the tasty food, the great service and nice ambiance. We ordered a couple glasses of wine with the watermelon and feta salad, spaghetti pomodoro and their daily pasta special with morel mushrooms, pancetta, peas in a pesto sauce.
