- Lemon M. 2/02/2025We had our daughter's 1st birthday there and it was perfect! Mary Pat was on top of everything from the beginning and helped plan the perfect event. Diego and Ally executed the day so everyone was taken care of. I highly recommend tavern on the point for any event!read moreread less
- Vincent B. 1/27/2025Tavern on the Point delivered an outstanding dining experience for our very large group (30+), and I couldn't be more impressed by their flexibility and hospitality. Originally, we had booked a table for a smaller group, but at the last minute, our party doubled in size. Despite the short notice, the staff at Tavern on the Point accommodated us with open arms, making us feel right at home. Our server was a true standout—she handled the logistics of splitting the check for such a large group with ease, all while maintaining a friendly, approachable attitude. Her attentiveness was exceptional, and she really made sure everyone was taken care of, no small feat given the size of our party. As for the food, it came out hot and fresh, and everyone was pleased with their meal. The quality of the dishes was consistent, and each plate was well-prepared. Despite the size of our party, everyone’s order came out correctly. The atmosphere was lively yet relaxed, and the dining room and kitchen staff clearly worked well together to make sure everything ran smoothly. Overall, Tavern on the Point was a perfect spot for our gathering. They went above and beyond in terms of service, food quality, and accommodating our last-minute changes. It’s a place I’d recommend for both small and large groups, and I’ll definitely be back again. Parking: Metered parking on the street was plentiful during our visit mid-day on Saturday. Non-metered spots are also close by. We had several in our group come from the city on Metra as well.read moreread lessPlainOlBill 12/14/2024We had a blast! Wonderful restaurant! And our server, Christina, was phenomenal! CHRISTINA REALLY MADE OUR EVENING SPECIAL! Thank you Christina! Moved from Chicago to Arkansas 5 years ago and back in town dog sitting. Took our two best friends out for their birthdays and found TAVERN ON THE POINT. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of the food but trust me the BRICK CHICKEN is very delicious. That's the entree Christina encouraged me to get and she was spot on. My buddy Chuck had the SURF AND TURF HAMBURGER and said he loved it. Wifey had the WALLEYE, she enjoyed it but caught a few bones here and there. Our other friend Mary had COBB SALAD WITH SALMON and thoroughly enjoyed it and had some to take home. Highly recommend this restaurant. Will be coming here again when back in town next time.read moreread less
- Tammy T. 12/06/2024First time there, I went for a party and I was pleasantly surprised that the food that they catered was great. I absolutely loved their Italian sausage, vodka rigatoni, and their green beans. Delicious, the chicken was not bad either. If you were to have a party, I would recommend this placeread moreread lessElizabeth D. 12/05/2024We went on a Wednesday during happy hour, 3-6pm. Justin at the bar was delightful. We loved the Christmas decorations and Christmas music. My husband and I both had the short rib grilled cheese-delicious and just buttery enough. I wouldn’t change anything about our experience. We will be back! Thank you!read moreread less

If you are looking for a beautiful and helpful venue, this is it! We had our son and daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner here last month and couldn't have been more pleased. We worked with John and Mary Pat and they couldn't have been more sincerely friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We know nothing about throwing parties from the food to the decorations and that is exactly Mary Pat's area of expertise. We live in the area and wanted to support a local business. Well, this is the place to go! We had the upstairs party room with the outdoor patio and it turned out to be a beautiful night especially with all the outdoor lighting. The food was served buffet style but didn't stay too warm unfortunately. We brought in a cake and they sliced and served it. The bartenders were gracious and efficient and they carefully bagged the remaining food for us. Thank you John and Mary Pat for making a special night even more meaningful! Looking forward to dining there soon!

- Stephani S. 11/05/2024This past weekend we held an event for my sons baseball team. Everything was amazing. The food, drinks, and service was great. Everyone had a great time including the kids. Thank you Tavern on the Point for all your help and being so attentive to us. We will definitely be back. -Dunham Bulls 13U Whiteread moreread lessT B. 10/27/2024Our service was exceptional tonight. I've had this place on my list of places to try for a long time and it did not disappoint. I'm so glad we finally had the chance to try it. I ordered the point chicken which was delicious. My husband ordered the short rib over gnocchi and I liked that just a smidge more so I think I would have enjoyed anything on the menu. It wasn't just our waitstaff that was great, it was every employee working that seemed to go above and beyond. I will definitely recommend and we will 100% be back.read moreread less
