" I celebrated my partner’s birthday at Taverna on the Bay and it was simply incredible! The service was outstanding; our waiter was very attentive. We started with a cheese board, followed by the special seafood linguine. For dessert, the chocolate cake was rich and heavenly. I appreciated the complimentary drink for the celebration! It made the evening feel even more special. Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant for any occasion! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re into seafood, you have to check this place out! The ambiance was nice and the service was good. I had the sea bass, and it was expertly cooked, flaking beautifully. A lovely side of seasonal veggies complemented it well. Only downside was that I expected a bigger portion for the price, but overall, it was a good meal and I’d recommend it to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

I will certainly be back and recommend it for a wonderful dining adventure. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time at Taverna on the Bay, and it certainly won’t be my last. The flavors in the dishes were incredible. I had the lobster, which was succulent, while my partner enjoyed the salad, which was fresh. The staff was attentive but not overly so, which I appreciated. I've already mentioned this restaurant to my friends and will be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved Taverna on the Bay! The ambiance was relaxed, and the food was outstanding. The stuffed mushrooms were delicious and the main courses we had were to die for! Desserts were the perfect finish to our meal. The service was friendly, but there was a little bit of a wait due to busy dinner hours, but it’s understandable. I will definitely be coming back!

" We were blown away by Taverna on the Bay! The calamari was to die for and cooked perfectly without being chewy. My partner enjoyed the shrimp risotto. It had a unique flavor that packed a punch. The restaurant also offers a great selection of wines. I loved their house-made sangria; it was refreshing and not too sweet. The atmosphere has a warm, welcoming feel. Definitely a place to mark on your map! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taverna on the Bay is an amazing find! The decor is beautiful, and the service is friendly. We went for dinner and ordered a seafood platter to share, which was fresh and nicely presented. Desserts were equally good, especially the cheesecake! The only downside was a slight delay during a busy time, but the experience was still positive. We’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
