| - Came here for a dinner on double date. We ordered lamb poutine, crab cake, pork chop, pickerel, quesadilla, pad thai and other foods I can't remember now. Foods were good throughout, no complaints here. I had crab cake and pork chop, which were delicious. I've had many bad crab cakes before but this one was different. I could really taste crab meat. Pork chop was cooked nicely and sauce was delicious.
People I came with were also happy with their foods.
Service was good but foods came out really slow. Ambiance inside is quiet and comfortable. Our server did her best to make our dining experience a memorable one, and as a result it was one of the best services I've experienced at restaruants in Toronto.
Cocktail list is extensive, and we ended up trying some but they were not as memorable.
Don't be fooled by the word "tavern" in the name. This is not a pub. It is a rather pricy restaurant with upscale atmosphere. I had to listen to my date bitching about prices and portion during the whole time, which kind of ruined it for us and embarrassed me. But he did have a point in that the portion was too small. But at least they didn't skimp on ingredients like seafoods in pad thai as good amount of seafood chunks was present.
I sometimes go to York Mills location, and compared to that my experience at Bay location is like 3 stars. Foods are much better there although it is noisier. But Miller on Bay is still an excellent restaurant on its own, in which case in my book York Mills location is 5 stars.
