We have been going to Taverna Pelligrini once or twice a month for dinner since they opened last year. The menu items seem to be pretty well worked out now. The happy hour menu seems to be a bargain at first but, in my opinion not really. The seafood/fish items don't seem to turn out well, overcooked, dry and tough. I keep hoping it will be worth coming back for a great seafood/fish dinner... Other items from salad to meat to pasta and pizza and desserts are very good!
The service has improved, though it was early in the evening on our last visit and not many people in the restaurant.
They have also started opening for lunch again during the week and brunch on Sunday.
+The Men's room was clean.
I hope this restaurant has success in this location. I think that greater quality and consistency in all the menu items (especially getting fresh seafood) would go a long way in prolonging their stay.
*For the prices that they charge, there are a couple of options within a few minutes walking distance that provide good to great alternatives.
*Maybe that is why the consistent quality of a restaurant's menu and not the location has been the downfall of previous tenants?
