Perfect! What a great atmosphere, service was to the T's and the filet was cooked to perfection. Top quality cut with no added flavoring needed, just a great steak!Every entree we watched come out had us planning our next meal we were going to order on our return visit.Highly recommend this establishment!Thanks Joe!

I pulled up for a quick lunch while on the road. The wings were nice and crispy but still juicy. The burger and fries were on point. And the service was great! Tatiana took care of me and was super friendly and attentive. Great experience. I'll definitely be going back to try out some more items on the menu as they do have a very extensive menu.

We had our son’s 1st birthday upstairs and it was the best experience! They were so hands on and took all the pressure off. Mary Pat was amazing and worked on the event with me from the very beginning and during the event stayed there the whole time and did frequent check ins! 10/10 would recommend and can’t wait to host another party here!

Tavern 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.

We 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.

First 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 place

We 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!

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. I know nothing about planning parties from the food to the decorating and that is 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 great, although it was buffet style and cooled off quickly. They were nice enough to cut and serve the cake we brought in. The decorations were simple and tasteful and added to the festiveness. The bartenders were gracious and efficient and they carefully bagged the remainder of the food for us. Thank you John and Mary Pat for making a special night even more meaningful! Looking forward to dining there soon!

This 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 White

Our 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.

Everything about our experience was great. We were greeted promptly and welcoming. Jordi was a personable server who provided excellent suggestions. We loved the Cobb Salad, Point Chicken and the side salad with house vinaigrette that we had in place of rice. Prices were all very reasonable. Will definitely be back!

The one and only Jay served us at the bar. Not only was he on point, with his dozens of drink orders, he was on point with our food and drink orders. Watching him make drinks was like watching albums Dumbledore cast spells. The food was amazing! Baja and brisket tacos, the perfect fuel for hating reviews. Six thumbs up, Jay! You rock!

Went there tonight after meeting one of the owners (joe) several weeks ago. It was date night and we really enjoy great food, great service and a great atmosphere. TAVERN OTP DELIVERED! We had initially tried to sit on the rooftop deck, however we were a bit cold so we moved back downstairs with ease. We were greeted by our new server ( sorry, I forgot her name) and began to peruse the menu. Some items that stood out were the spinach Artichoke dip. Very cheese and tasty. A few more toast points would have been cool. We were asked by Joe later but had moved on to the Kale and Apple salad with Feta and dried cranberries. Really tasty, fresh and vibrant. We split the salad as it was fairly large. Next, my date was very excited for the lamb chops and Mashed potatos. It's one of her faves. I can only imagine how delicious it was as I noticed her pick up the bone with her hands like a beautiful wild beast feasting on her catch of the day I can tell she was definitely immersed in a carnivores fever dream. I ordered the filet, medium with garlic Mashed. The steak was grilled well and full of flavor. The Mashed potatos were perfectly garlicky. We enjoyed everything. At one point Joe the owner evern came by the table to say hello. It was a very touching gesture. Very pleasant fellow. My date really enjoys the special little moments like that as we both spent many years in both front and back of house respectively. Thankyou for a great dinner out on a Tuesday night.

Wish I could give them 10 stars! I had a party at Tavern on the Point for my husband's 50th birthday this weekend and the experience was perfect! The owner, John, the event manager, Kasia, the bartenders and waitstaff, Joe, Traci, Paige, the food runners, the host (trying to remember everyone's names) went above and beyond. I was in the service industry for 15 years and have been less than pleased with the decline in customer service these days. I was very happily surprised with how fantastic our event went. Just about all 40 of my guests made it a point to tell me how nice everyone was, what fun they had, and how delicious the food was. They took excellent care of us and the party area was spotless and beautifully set up. I will recommend this place to everyone I know. Thanks again to everyone!

Our team at Cozzini Bros recently held a dinner at Tavern on the Point, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! From the moment Bridget (our PM) started planning, Mary Pat French was phenomenal to work with. Her attention to detail and dedication to ensuring everything went smoothly was greatly appreciated. The venue itself was perfect, and everyone on our team loved it the best out of all the options. The service was outstanding, and the food was exceptional. Every dish was delicious, and the staff made sure we were well taken care of throughout the evening. A huge thank you to Mary Pat French and the entire team at Tavern on the Point for making our summit dinner such a memorable event. We highly recommend this venue for any corporate or special event!

This place is great. The staff here is amazing. You have several options to spend your time. The place is spacious on the main level but there is an upstairs patio that's great for those nice days. Oh and the food is incredible as well. Highly suggest this place as there us always something going on from live music to games. Check their FB page for the latest.

We rented out the whole first floor and they gave us some of the second floor for my wifes celebration of life. She passed away from a quick very rare cancer. The whole staff did a remarkable job. They got hit with a couple hundred people at once they weathered the storm with a smile and did a great job. The food was excellent and they made it very special for a sad day. Thank you Kathy for everything. Another thing if you rent it out pay extra $100 for a valet guy. We'll worth it.

My Dad had a celebration of life event here last weekend for his Sister and it was absolutely perfect! The upstairs area was so spacious and I loved being able to sit both inside and outside. The staff were all so friendly and attentive. Food and drinks were delicious, I especially liked the Rigatoni Vodka Sauce! Such a great atmosphere in this place! Highly recommend!

Had my college graduation party held on the rooftop terrace/upstairs bar. From the superb planning, logistics, and organization of the venue months out with Mary Pat, to day-of service and hospitality with Kasha, Christine, and Katie; the Tavern outshined every expectation. Our guests couldn’t stop commenting on the venue and food the duration and post-event. The Tavern truly made an already proud occasion everlasting and momentous. Will definitely be hosting another event here soon!

Tavern on the Point graciously hosted our Memorial luncheon and we could not have been happier with the outcome. Everyone raved about the food which was delicious. The service was spectacular! They accommodated our needs and went out of their way to make sure everything went well. We highly recommend TotP to anyone looking for a party venue for any occasion. Special thanks to Kasia and Mary Pat for assistance with planning the luncheon and the great service of Joe,Jasemia, and Anthony. Thank you Tavern!

We went off hours. It's our lunch spot now! Staff was helpful and attentive and the food was really good. The music is a little loud for conversation tho. I've recommended this place to folks. We had the Brussels sprouts app and asked the waitress to bring an entree and surprise us. She brought fish tacos which were fantastic. We'd order them again.

We hosted a party here and everything went great! Everyone working there was friendly and helpful with any and all of our requests, even last minute day of- from specific songs being played at specific times and microphone usage, to moving/adding tables, and dietary restrictions. The guests loved the atmosphere and food, and I cannot recommend them enough for private parties! We had the upstairs bar and tented patio and it was perfect for our party of 50 with a cake/cookie table, buffet, and gift table. There was plenty of room to mingle and sit/eat.

It’s a little out of place for Edison Park, but I really liked the ambience. The menu is rather simple with limited choices but they have a lot of good choices nonetheless. The rooftop dining area is nice and it is decorated very modern inside. No complaints on the service and great location.

I have been coming here since it opened. The experience is outstanding each and every time. There are multiple levels with indoor and outdoor spaces. On my most recent visit both myself and my companion had the short rib & jam grilled cheese and it was outstanding! The filet sliders are also a favorite of mine. I have never had anything I didn’t like. The people who run this place are standup neighborhood people who put their heart and soul into everything they do. I can’t recommend this place enough. I am always looking for an excuse to go to Edison Park to go here. The last time was for a lunch meeting as a good halfway point between downtown and Northbrook. The best part is I know this place is going to be around. This is not a fly by night that will be under a new name/concept/management in a year or two. This place has long term staying potential. I think my next visit will be on a weekend night with the wife.
