Tavern House Kitchen + Bar

Tavern House Kitchen + Bar David Wilhelm's creative twist on classic American fare with stunning harbor views.
(2558)

TAVERN HOUSE KITCHEN + BAR is the creation of restaurateurs David Wilhelm and Gregg Solomon who have separately developed numerous Orange County restaurants over the past 25 years, including Kachina, Bistro 201, Barbacoa, Chat Noir, Saltwater Grill, Diva, Sorrento Grille and French 75. They created this new concept as a neighborhood gathering place for drinking, dining, socializing, and life celeb

rations, both large and small. Its beautiful Harbor view location is warm, comfortable and stylish...a place for a relaxing dinner or cheerful weekend brunch. The regional American cuisine oriented menu offers a collection of classic and creative dishes prepared with the highest quality ingredients including organically grown produce, sustainable and properly harvested seafood, and humanely raised poultry and livestock. The restaurant serves dinner nightly and serves weekend Brunch featuring organic Bloody Marys, champagne, and a variety of signature dishes including Fried Chicken and Waffles, Prime Rib Benedict, and Housemade Buttermilk Biscuits.

🦪🔥 Our featured Marlborough oysters from New Zealand continue to be a huge hit at Tavern House!

And lately, more guests have been trying our signature baked version for the first time… with zero regrets 😏

We top them with a smoky-spicy chile, bourbon & BBQ butter, then bake them until plump and sizzling. Finished with a sprinkle of pecan wood smoked “bacon dust” and served with grilled garlicky sourdough to soak up every last drop of those incredible juices.

Bivalve beauties at their finest.
You’re welcome 😉

🌿✨ May specials have arrived at Tavern House

Artichoke season is officially here, and we’re featuring beautiful Castroville-grown artichokes—poached in an herbed broth, then fire-grilled to order. Served with our rosemary, black pepper & Parmigiana aioli 🤍

Each leaf is meant to be pulled, dipped, and savored… slow, simple, and a little indulgent.

There’s something special about the ritual of sharing artichokes, and we invite you to enjoy it with us this month. More new specials coming soon 👀

Our fan-favorite Baby Back Ribs have returned for the summer 🙌

Served with jalapeño-cheddar gratin, honey-dijon coleslaw, and savory baked beans.

Pair it with an icy Tavern Margarita and your summer = complete 🍹☀️
