★★★★☆ 4.0 Stephen C Busick · Dec 2025

The place is new, the food is really good and the martini drinks are good and the beer is cold. Will go back and try something else. I had the travern burger and the wife had the chicken patina.

1st I will start with the service and food. AMAZING all the way around. Our waitress was also the bartender and made the best espresso martini. The hush puppies hit the spot!! 2nd The cook was the most amazing human being. When we went out to leave our car wouldn't start. He came out without hesitation to help us. Thankfully it was just the battery and he had jumper cables. Such an angel. The universe sent us to 36th Street Tavern and we're blessed they were such great people. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ 10/10

It's 1st time at the 36th Street Tavern! Our server was Bryn, who seemed very enthusiastic and excited to be working there. She was on top of everything we needed for the entire visit. In fact, all the wait staff that they we encountered seemed happy to be there. Our entire experience will definitely keep us coming back.

Went to 36th tavern to watch the Drake game. While I was disappointed with the outcome of the game, I was super impressed with the food and drinks!! I had a great time & will definitely be returning. Our pretzel bites were so tasty and had the perfect amount of salt. The chicken wings were crispy and a generous amount of seasoning/sauce. Kayla got cauliflower bites and they looked a little sad, as compared to other restaurants, but she claims that they tasted good!

My wife and I eat out every Sunday. We'll review if it is great or if it is poor. This is certainly the latter. Food ideas were good, but execution was sub par at best.my wife had a panini,should have been good but the bread wasn't buttered before pressing so no crunch. Then inside the panini was so dry, it pulled apart. A good panini should stick together because of cheesy goodness, this was so dry, it fell apart. Just a little better execution and it would have been great. I had the tenderloin, mostly because they are simplest to taste and determine quality. For the menu saying "hand breaded" it had to have been the lower quality Sysco has to offer. Kwik Star makes better. It was dry, not crunchy or golden brown in any sense of the word. This would be a great place but it's as if the o
