We
unexpectedly
came
across
La
Taverna
and
found
it
okay.
Not
amazing
but
full
of
potential!
The
menu
itself
is
super
small,
and
hard
to
read,
it's
not
designed
well
and
that's
never
a
good
sign,
even
for
a
small
signature
place
as
this
one.
It
just
opened
in
June,
and
we
visited
in
early
September.
I
feel
like
this
is
relevant
because
the
restaurant
is
just
in
it's
startup
phase
so
while
I
am
being
harsh,
it's
purely
constructive.
So
first,
the
good
things:
1)
The
design
and
mix
of
seating
options
is
excellent
for
the
space.
Apart
from
the
steps
at
the
entrance,
the
restaurant
is
super
accessible
and
would
offer
your
choice
of
seats.
Bench,
low
chair,
high
chair
and
patio!
Super
dope.
2)
Service
was
lovely.
It
was
so
swift
and
our
server
was
very
kind.
She
did
also
explain
the
menu
to
us,
and
the
portion
sizes.
The
restaurants
selling
point
of
modest
food
portions
and
low
prices
was
spot
on,
and
it
was
just.
There
are
several
restaurants
in
the
area
that
charge
double
for
the
same
small
portions
so
it's
nice
to
see
a
fair
price
reflecting
the
food
you
get!
Now
for
the
improvements:
1)
The
fried
chicken
jalapeño
waffle
sandwich
and
fries.
(Great
price,
but
not
so
tasty).
The
sandwich
was
cold
and
unfortunately
not
so
pleasant.
Having
some
syrup
available
would
have
helped,
but
so
would
some
spice.
The
chicken
breast
was
really
nice
but
not
seasoned
well
enough.
The
waffle
was
not
spicy
considering
the
jalapeño
either.
The
fries
were
crispy,
but
way
too
bloody
salty.
I
hope
this
isn't
an
attempt
at
making
people
thirsty
and
getting
them
to
buy
extra
drinks,
which
is
a
sly
tactic
that
a
nice
place
as
this
one
shouldn't
need
to
implement.
The
fries
were
served
with
a
runny
creme
sauce
of
some
kind,
which
was
nice,
but
I'd
imagine
someone
else
would
prefer
ketchup
or
mayo.
Not
offered
(but
I'd
hope
it
is
available
for
those
who
want).
2)
Redesigning
your
menu!
You
can
maintain
the
minimalism
and
make
it
clearer.
As
of
now
it's
just
all
smudged
together
and
it's
not
easy
to
read.
People
who
are
hungry
don't
want
to
become
cryptographers
just
to
see
what's
being
offered
and
at
what
price
and
with
which
sides
etc.
As
for
the
food
options,
very
few
kosher
options
which
is
dissapointing.
How
about
a
bit
more
variety?
Veg/Vegan,
Kosher
etc...
Okay
so
overall
the
restaurant
is
nice
but
needs
to
improve
the
flavour
of
some
of
its
food
and
it
really
needs
to
redesign
it's
menu.
This
place
is
bursting
with
potential,
it
just
needs
to
make
a
few
alterations
here
and
there.
