Culinary Chronicles: Black + Haus Tavern

Our neighbors invited us to join them on a Saturday night at Black+Haus Tavern. It was just me and my older son this time, as our youngest wasn’t feeling well. We had been wanting to try this spot for a while, and I am so glad that we did!

The location is right on the corner of Mainstreet, across from O’Brien Park. It was a busy Saturday night, but luckily our wonderful neighbors had grabbed a reservation in advance. The ambiance was classic with a modern twist, which I found very inviting. It felt like the perfect blend of upscale dining and neighborhood comfort.

They have a decent selection of cocktails, wine, and beer. I was happy with my chilled glass of Chardonnay while my son opted for a lemonade. For entrées, I chose the salmon, which arrived with a beautifully crisp exterior, a delicate and flaky interior, and was expertly seasoned.

My son has been on a steak and potatoes kick. I wanted to encourage this new culinary exploration, so we ordered him the ribeye! It was also perfectly cooked, and we shared some with our neighbors since the portion was generous. The steak was high quality and melted in your mouth.

Throughout our meal, the service was friendly and prompt, adding to our overall enjoyment. I made note that they do have a kids' menu, so we can go back again with our youngest! If you are looking for modern eating in a clean, crisp atmosphere, I recommend you give Black+Haus

Tavern a try. I am glad to have found this culinary gem in our community.
