Very happy to have tried this new restaurant! Service was great and the food was absolutely delicious! They offer a great selection of wines and cocktails. Will definitely be back in!
Great food, great service , great atmosphere. Not much more you can ask for from a restaurant
We ordered swordfish, shrimp kebabs and squid with a good sauvignon. the squid was burnt at some spots, but still delicious good. The swordfish was delicious and tender. Shrimp was also very good and perfectly cooked. Very garlicky, like we LOVE. Little salads were tasteful. Potatoes and rice were also very lemony which we enjoyed. The tzaziki was super spicy with the freshly chopped garlic. it's a restaurant that serves garlic, olive oil and oregano in almost everything. We love these three things, so we enjoyed, but I don't think i'd want to pay that much again for this food. Our server Alfred was amazing, i wish he would've sat with us! Him and my date got along so well, they became instant best friends !! Amazing service from him. He traveled Europe and only told us after he opened our bottle that they had GREEK WINE! Make sure to ask :)
Amazing Greek food and my favourite place to go in Moncton! The lamb chops are highly recommended :)
Been to this restaurant quite a few times and let’s be honest it is by far my favourite Greek place! You will not be disappointed they make you feel welcomed and have the best chill atmosphere. Must go!
Amazing new restaurant in Moncton!!! Top class service and vibe!! Food is 5 star 🔥 Definitely making this a regular dinning spot🙌
I had an ouzo and feta with olives. There was a Greek music nonstop. Wooden tables with lanterns. Stylish mix of traditional tavern spirit and modern design. I like everything!
As I dashed in to Taverna from the pouring rain, the warm welcome I received immediately set the tone. It was the beginning of a wonderful dining out in Moncton. For many years I'd frequented Greek restaurants in Vancouver, BC., and so I could compare. No hesitation, I give full marks to Chef 'Billy', kitchen manager, bro Dimitry 'Jimmy' and the engaging serving staff at Taverna. The food is quality - what I was searching for in Moncton - and clearly scores high. Imagine my delight when Chef Billy asked if I'd try his new offering, Musaka, which I love & which he'd just prepared. I hadn't even wanted to ask for this delicious entree as it requires extended time to prepare various layers & this was lunch time). My take; a little twigging in spice makes his Musaka perfect. And for being the test subject, I enjoyed a fresh baklava. Thanks Jill for the outstanding coffee! And gratitude goes to all staff for friendliness and giving me an exceptional dining experience. For its quality food, service & fine decor, I'm recommending Taverna to my friends, . Ah! So happy to find Taverna in Moncton! I'll certainly be returning!
Celebrated my husband’s 60th birthday here it was our first time dining and wow, we were so impressed. We will definitely be back! The ambiance was wonderful. We were seated on the second floor which was nice and cozy. They had Greek videos playing and nice music. We had some delicious cocktails, shared a nice Greek Sauvignon Blanc bottle of wine, some appetizers ( I recommend ordering the tzatziki which comes with warm pitas, you can then keep some for your main meal), and ordered some souvlakis, chicken brochettes, salads and they gave my husband their orange cake for his birthday dessert. Excellent friendly service! We loved this place and it was super busy which is a great sign. Our new favourite restaurant in Moncton!
Craving Greek food because we have none in PEI and randomly discovered this place! OPA! We hit the jackpot! Immediately impressed with the mythological modern decor. The menu was great except I noticed no moussaka. The owner said a vegetarian one is in the works. Good idea! Instantly felt appreciated as a customer—so friendly and caring here. First came complimentary pita and that went excellent with our wine. Had the pastitsio and it didn’t disappoint—the béchamel was lusciously high and so meaty. My spouse had the souvlaki, rice and Greek potatoes and was impressed. Loved the music too. Please open up a resto in PEI guys!
What an awesome visit. The staff were very easy to get along with and the atmosphere was modern and cozy. The food was delicious and lots of Greek flavors that we looked forward to. The meals were cooked perfectly and decent portions too. This will be our new go to place while we are in Moncton. Can't wait to return.
10/10!!! Absolutely incredible!!! Went there with a group of friends for my birthday and we were greeted with a warm welcome and lovely smiles from all of the staff! The service was amazing and the food was to die for! The decor was lovely and the ambiance was great! I absolutely loved my experience at Taverna and I definitely will be coming back in the future!
TAVERNA is a beautiful addition to downtown. Our waitress was attentive and personable. The food was delicious & it was recommended to try the Loukaniko as an appetizer— best thing I have EVER eaten! Only thing I regret was not saving room for dessert.
10 outta 10 INCREDIBLE RESTAURANT!! We love trying new, & local restaurants. Came from Saint John, and searched up greek restaurants. Came across this restaurant and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! We were greeted with smiles & warmth. Waitress took our drink order, and kindly suggested the beer from Greece. HECK YES! It was delicious. Ordered an appetizer, and it came quickly. Tzatziki & pita - perfect! My husband & I both ordered Slovakia chicken with potatoes, rice & Greek salad. The Greek dressing was so tasty. They really should bottle that stuff & sell it. While waiting for our meal, the owner came over & said that they over cooked the chicken skewer, and it would be another 6-7 minutes as they were cooking new ones. He then came over with a different Greek beer, and poured us a glass and said it was on the house. Stating he apologized for the wait - and we didn’t even feel as though we had waited long. Service was top notch. Food was incredible, and we will be back! This is now my fav restaurant in Moncton. Job well done!!! WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!
I've had the privilege to eat here twice now, and both times I was blown away at how delicious the food was. My fiancé and I each take an appetizer and a main, and share half of the whole meal. This gave us the chance to try 4 appetizers and 3 mains. The lamb chops were heavenly, we had to reorder them the 2nd visit. We are foodies, and appreciate good food. This is by far, hands down, the best restaurant we've been to in Moncton. I can tell that the owners take pride in the food they serve. The service has always been lovely. And the atmosphere and decor are really nice. The bathrooms are so nice, I hope they paid their designer well LOL
I have been fortunate enough to have visited Greece, Crete and Rhodes when I wore a younger man's clothes. The experience I have every time I eat at Taverna takes me straight back there. The food is absolutely authentic, beautifully presented and prepared. The decor and ambience is wonderful and even the bathroom's are so clean and beautifully designed. Matthew, our waiter, has been A1 with his recommendations, politeness, service, attentiveness and friendliness. It it a combination of all of these things that keeps us coming back time after time and loving our experience there.
