NEW ON THE MENU. SMALL BITES. BIG FLAVOR.

We're bringing something new to the table at Iron Tail Tavern, and these are a pretty good place to start.

Meet our Crispy Polenta Bites — bite-sized polenta crisped to perfection, tossed in smoked paprika, topped with shaved Parmesan, and served with arrabbiata sauce for dipping.

A little crunch, a little smoky flavor, and a touch of heat. Perfect for starting your meal or sharing around the table. Although we won't blame you if you keep them all to yourself.

This is just one of the new additions to our menu. Come in, explore what's new, and find your next favorite.
