I was very excited to try Great Scott Tavern and left extremely disappointed. We went there tonight to celebrate my birthday. The service was subpar even though there was no crowd. The guests at the next booth arrived after we did and were served bread. We had to ask for bread after noticing the other booth receiving their bread. I asked my server for a refill on my beverage and waited for a long time until I ended up asking another server for a refill.
My husband told them it was my birthday when he made the reservation and reminded the hostess when we arrived. We never got the dessert with a candle he was told we would get. After waiting for what seemed like an exceptionally long time following the plates being cleared we eventually just asked for the check and waited a long time for that. I guess we could have asked for the dessert with the candle after that but I just wanted to leave at that point.
The beef stroganoff was not flavorful. I had to ask for salt and pepper. The mussels did not have much flavor either although the fries were very good.
I do not recommend Great Scott for a special occasion!
