A couple notes about the Taverna-

We stop taking day of reservations after 4pm. Please call the restaurant after 4pm.

We do not accept parties of 4 people or more. We are a small restaurant with only 22 seats and cannot accommodate larger parties.

Established in April of 2015, The Taverna serves authentic Greek fare while remaining true to our Greek roots. Our menu highlights what is available to us locally and seasonally. Our wine list is one of the largest all Greek wine lists in the United States which features natural, orange and organic wines. We offer a unique dining experience that can only be found in a few select locations in the country. We welcome you to our little Taverna in Brunswick!

One of my favorite restaurants for its consistently good and interesting food as well as the atmosphere. It’s a great space and you and your dinner companion(s) can actually hear each other. Service was, as usually, friendly and attentive and I appreciate the guidance in making decisions about which dishes to order, especially when sharing.

This taverna is a step above the most common purveyors of Greek food. The menu choices were a bit different and the wine list was very extensive. We had a friendly server who was very knowledgeable about Greek wines.

The food at Taverna Khione keeps getting better. It offers impressive, authentic, and tasty dishes. The addition of a wine club is a real plus!

Always a pleasurable experience at this little chef-owned taverna. Classic homestyle Greek dishes, local ingredients, delightful Greek wines, and a cozy vibe.

This was our second excursion to Brunswick to visit Taverna Khione. While all of the food we tried was inspirational and uses locally sourced ingredients, the taste was not quite there for all of the dishes we tried. Excellent grilled kalamari and katsikaki with trahanas for example, accompanied by a good beef stew with figs. But we did find the pickled mullet and lamb meatballs lacking or not to our taste. The dips were well prepared and were presented with an excellent bread, but they would have gone far better with some pita bread, while the great bread would have made a nice table intro with some Greek EVOO. The kydonia (quince) dessert was amazing.

The restaurant is great! Recommend making the reservation by calling though. At the restaurants discretion they can charge you no show fees to your opentable based reservations and opentable cannot rectify false charges, only the restaurant — even if you attend your own reservation. Bad business.

One of the best meals you will find in Brunswick. Highly recommend! Walkable from all the hotels in Brunswick located close to Maine St. Reservations needed as chef is a one man show at this lovely cozy spot.
