Taverna On The Bay - Staten Island

A fantastic spot for delicious food and excellent service. This is a family-owned and operated restaurant that we have visited many times, and it always impresses!

The food was fresh and cooked flawlessly; every dish was absolutely delicious!

Taverna consistently exceeds expectations. Even after relocating to New Jersey a few months ago, we still make the journey because it remains one of our favorite restaurants. The staff and owner are exceptional. They serve the finest paella I've tasted in the United States, and the socarrat – the delicious crust at the bottom of the skillet – is undoubtedly one of my favorite dishes in the world. Sometimes, the simplest pleasures are the most enjoyable.

First time dining at Taverna on the Bay. Welcoming experience and ambiance. Service was a bit slow Our meal was delicious! Oysters, tuna, filet of sole. My expresso martini was made to perfection. We will definitely return.

Owner chef and family operated. We have dinner here often. Always great!!
