Did you know that this space used to be a bar called Cosmo for about 10 years before it was converted to a restaurant? Little piece of trivia that our server shared with us :)
I was looking to make dinner reservations for a large group from work and Tavolo fit perfectly for our group consisting vegetarians and vegans. I called in around 5 PM on a Tuesday evening and was able to get us a table for 7. When we got to the restaurant, our table was ready waiting for us. The space seemed huge and had a great open decor. Our server recommended a wine that we all loved, and they also had a decent cocktails menu and beer on tap.
For the food we were served very warm bread with a delicious sundried tomato-thyme infused oil. We ordered quite a few entrees and though I did not try all I can safely say that the portion sizes are large. The vegetable lasagna, eggplant parm (Served on a bed of delicious garlicy linguine) and the sausage and penne were very satisfying. I would recommend Tavolo for big groups.
