We were promptly seated by a friendly host in a comfortable plush booth. Our server was pleasant and responsive. The setting was warm and welcoming. We placed our order and sipped our drinks as we shouted back and forth across the table.This was the only way we could communicate (we don't know sign language). As the evening progressed the noise level became more and more intense. My wife ordered Chicken with Ravioli and I ordered Cajun Chicken Fettucini. Both were tasty, hot, and served with ample sauce. This could have been a very memorable, pleasant evening. It had all the ingredients. Instead, it was memorable but not in a good way.

Thanks for taking a moment to review us and provide us with your feedback. We are happy to hear your visit was pleasant overall, but understand that the peak dinner hours can be a touch noisy. We appreciate your business and hope you'll try us again very a late lunch when things are a bit quieter!

A brief business chat turned in to cocktails and appetizers at this particular Tavern property (there are others around the metro), and this staff and kitchen is doing it right! We had great Brandy Old Fashioneds (traditional, hand-mixed) during their Happy Hour, and our appetizers were superb. The staff totally gets what they're doing, although I I heard one server belly-aching to another about her table. She noticed that I also saw and heard her, and she immediately apologized. Love it! They have a nice outdoor area right off France Ave, too!

Enjoyed our evening on the patio next to the fire pit. It has a very coZy feel with the sounds of the little waterfall. Our food was excellent and service outstanding. The bartender made one great dirty martini!! We had Blue cheese chips, turkey burger and Thai Pizza. My husband loved the pear cocktail. We will be back on our next trip to Minny for sure!

We went to Mall of America for the weekend, but wanted to get away for a good meal. We tried out Tavern on France and we were not disappointed. Our waitress was great, the food was great, the appetizers where huge, and after a 95 degree day, it was in the 80s when we got there and the outdoor dining area was perfect with a nice breeze.
