It's been a long time since I came here for lunch (now that I don't work in SouthPark). It's less packed than I remember, which is good, because parking is always a nightmare here. My friend and I sat outside on the patio, which was nice and quiet (only 1 or 2 other tables out there). Waitress did well in general, given the fact that we're her only table outside.
We were able to get in and out in an hour, more or less, which is a key for any lunch spots on a work day. My half and half (half chicken club and soup) was solid for $8.95. My friend's roast beef rueben (whole sandwich with a side of fries) was pretty big portion for $11.95 (and a big sloppy mess to eat). The fried calamari $9.95 was good, but not sure if it's worth the price.
Crazy thing is I really wanted the trout, that was my favorite lunch dish there for the longest time, but I just cannot see myself spending $18.95 for lunch! The salmon entree was cheaper.
Village Tavern has always been a solid spot in South Park. They still have happy hours specials (4-6). And it's one of the nicest patio space to enjoy a nice day out.
