We have eaten at City Tavern several times and had great experiences. Not tonight.....the service was non-existent. The excuse from the hostess was they had a party of 30 in a back room and the managers put most of the servers in there. Why seat us in a section that has no server then? The main dining room was three quarters empty. Or the hostess could have taken a table to help out?
The food was the savior because it was as good as always....so that will likely bring us back for another try.
My other complaint about this restaurant is that I never see any management. Why are they not visible?
