    The server was inattentive while having few customers to wait on. The food was pretty good and nicely plated.

    A brasserie, in France, is a place where you can eat at any time, just a salad or just a dessert or a full . meal, or just have a drink, and that's exactly what you can do here

    Ok if you are in the city this place has room, Saturday night is pretty busy in town, not here. Seriously its a bar off the hotel, and stick to bar grub.

    Perfect place to be with my friends that I haven't seen in a while. Service was great. We needed time to catch up and the waitress did not rush us at all. She gave us plenty of time to sit and chat without feeling pressure to give up the table.

    Have been here for the last 4 Thanksgiving and usually very busy. Made a reservation and when we arrived there were only 3 other tables. Not impressed with the menu, pricing or the service. Had to ask for rolls and what came out was marble wheat toast. Sorry not for a Thanksgiving dinner at $55 person

    The wife and I decided to dine at any restaurant during Restaurant Week as a last hurrah before welcoming a child into our lives. We ended up here because reservations were available here as opposed to all of the more desirable restaurants. Decor is modern and neat. Live music for the night was nice, both audible but unobtrusive. Pros: - Friendly staff, helpful despite slow food service. - Large and delicious desserts. - I would recommend the crab chowder. Cons: - Just about anything I tried to order was unavailable. - Slow service despite the restaurant being pretty empty.

    Came to T17 for Restaurant Week on a Friday evening. Although this is a nice looking place it was such a bad choice in the end. Upon arrival no one greeted us for some time. The service was so poor with long waits in between each course. My party was not satisfied w/meal. It was a couple of things that was good such as the braised beef and beef quesadilla but for the most part the meals were not very enjoyable. I really feel that the poor service is what made the evening bad. Overall it took over 2 hours to finish a 4 course meal when there was really no other customers in the restaurant. So would not recommend this place for anyone's dinning experience.

    room: needs complete make-over. chairs just hanging together, new paint job needed, new floor needed. service: cup of tea came w/o teacup. then cup came without teaspoon. at lease they didn't rush us out, but that may be because there were very few customers. price matches the premium hotel they are in, but Tavern 17 does not deserve the fee. should have gone to a diner for Sunday lunch.

    I had a great meal at Tavern 17 and so did everyone else in my party, however slightly overpriced. Also, the wait staff was very rude and not welcoming or helpful at all. Also the windows were all open and the restaurant was freezing cold.
