    The best meal out in a long time! The drinks were delightful. The eggplant rollatini melted in your mouth. My husband had the chicken parm which was the best he’s ever tasted. I had the macadamia crusted cod which was absolutely delicious. The service was spot on and the music was great. We cannot wait to go back! Kudos to the chef!

    A great little place with good food, great service, and a phenomenal old fashioned. Lisa, our server, couldn't have been more pleasant and the service was exceptional. Overall a great value and we'll definitely be returning.

    My friend an I ordered the Chilean sea bass and we were both disappointed. We both got thin pieces instead of meatier thick part that were a little overcooked and we thought the portion of fish was on the small side

    As usual the staff are wonderful and the vibe is perfect for a relaxing and fun evening out. The linguine with clams was just perfect. My wife got the risotto with seafood which is outstanding every time. We love the Tavern!

    This was our first time visiting the Martinsville Tavern and it won't be our last. The service was wonderful; my husband was having a small family reunion and while our server was very attentive, but we never felt rushed. We all enjoyed our lunch entrees and desserts were excellent as well. We sat on the porch and what a beautiful room and it was set up for a birthday party and if it was my birthday - I would have been very happy!!

    It was our first time in the restaurant and we had a perfect meal. We were celebrating my mother’s 85th birthday and she was very happy with everything. Thanks to the staff for singing to her!
