Schuster's Tavern

[livenh]

I was at Schuster's a few weeks back. The fireplace is great and makes the space feel very comfortable. I agree that the stuff animals/dolls could go. However I'm sure they are there for some reason unknown to us. Our waitress was alone and certainly handled everyone with no problems. The food we ordered was all good.

No, you cannot compare it to Ellacoya but I have given up on Patrick's. After burning my nachos to a crisp and them doing absolutely nothing about it, I guess that was the last straw for me. Not the first time the food was not prepared properly (and really - nachos - how can you mess those up?) but it definitely was the last.

I have absolutely no complaints about Schuster's. The prices were reasonable - they certainly compared to other places in the area. A bit off the beaten path but not so far as to make it a hassle to get there. I plan to go again.

My wife and I visited Schusters Tavern last Sunday night having heard beforehand all the positive reviews on this site. I am pleased to say that we thoroughly enjoyed our visit! The restaurant/tavern possessing a 70's-ish motif, is in itself very charming. With its high ceilings and warm, homey atmosphere it is very welcoming. It is also extremely clean and you can see the owners really care about the place and take great pride in it. We didn't see an abundance of soft animals about - as read in other posts, but they were here and there. Several children were actually taking pictures of them during our visit, which was very cute, and one can deduce from this that they are displayed to make it a family friendly atmosphere. Our server was very friendly and attentive, playing double duty that night as both hostess and server. Our food was really good too. We both had the Turkey and Rice Soup leading up to our main meal and it was delicious. My wife equated it to having Thanksgiving in a bowl! My wife had a BLT that had very fresh ingredients and tasted great, whereas I had the Pork Shank entree. It was very moist and flavorful and literally fell off the bone as you cut into it. We both enjoyed our time there and are trying to plan our next visit real soon. Hope this place does well. As commented in another post, its a bit off the beaten track, but its well worth the extra time to get there!
