With the opening of Taverna, Platinum Dining Group brings to life its highly anticipated version of the “neighborhood gathering place.” Inspired by both the casual watering holes and belly-warming kitchens found within homes all throughout Italy, Taverna suggests a rural approach to refined Italian cooking.
Rustic and simple in conception but well crafted and high minded in execution, Taverna brings a casual sophistication that sees reclaimed wood and exposed brick on the wall. Polished marble rest atop the overstretched bar which boasts eighteen draft beers and the state’s first-ever “tapped wine” system.
Based on 275 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.2 stars. Price $$

Food that is as delicious and satisfying as the restaurant is attractive. 8/27/23 Lunch. We were on our way to another place to use up the last $5 of an old gift card when my wife noticed this place. So we stopped here instead. I’m so glad we did!

Overall this was a very unique hidden gem. I didn’t have much of an appetite so I wasn’t able to eat like I normally do. I got to try the TAVERNA ANTIPASTO

It was Very Good food. It was delicious. However, I thought I was going to be a real mom and pop Italian restaurant. A go-to when you want to bring home food for the family. It was great atmosphere and waitstaff was great also, it just wasn’t what I had been hoping for. I would definitely want to go back, but for me, it won’t be a regular outing and definitely not for kids.

The pioneer of Wilmington dining does it again. The food and service are outstanding. Whoever does the training is totally on top of things. The hostess, then waiter, then bus service, and finally manager are all providing three star Michelin service…dead serious. Maybe a winning night but anyway you cut it the staff and service was spectacular. Well done Platinum dining and Carl and Nick and more importantly the staff that tended to us.

New, clean environment, friendly service, amazing food. 10/10 recommended!! The chicken pizza not only tastes amazing, it smells good, too (thanks to the spinach, I think). The braised pork shank is more than impressive. It’s soft and flavorful. The Mediterranean salad is something good to start your dinner, and please don’t say no to the fresh peppers on your salads. The black peppers smelled so good that I could even smell it while wearing a mask. And we absolutely loved the chef market soup.

Underwhelming. Server tried hard and had good attitude. Food was slow, Tap Beer was watery, pizza crust was burned, mushroom soup not good, birthday dessert was a small jar of whipped cream. Not what we would expect from a relatively upscale restaurant

Upscale Italian dining with a unique atmosphere. Pasta is incredibly fresh with a diverse set of options. Cocktail menu is quite flavorful. Venue feels cozy with split at the entrance between bar high tops and standard tables. If you want something out of the ordinary with an elevated menu this is a great spot.

Stopped in for lunch, had a delicious margarita pizza + taverna salad. Crust on the pizza was wonderfully crisp. Our meal came with a beautifully light, rustic Italian bread and dried tomato olive oil for dipping.

The food and drinks were very good. I love when they have the big doors open to the outside on a nice day.

Quaint place, very clean and servers very friendly. Excellent experience food was great no waiting. Fresh ingredients, vegetarian friendly menu, maybe it was an off-day but we found our food to be slightly salty. Desserts were absolutely delicious especially the tiramisu.
