Tavern 22,

3401 Northern Valley Place Northeast, Rochester, MN 55906

"I reserved a table for 12 to watch the Super Bowl and they were happy to accommodate. The place was not too crowded and had plenty of TVs to see the game no matter what angle you were sitting. Great atmosphere. The staff were great, the food and drinks were good and I could tell that our business was welcomed. They also had a great whiskey selection. A Rochester gem!"

"Food tasted better than it looked, and that's not saying much. Waitress never came back around. Really long wait times for being super slow in the diner. The atmosphere was the best thing about the experience. Overall, I would not recommend."

"Hovering around a 3.5 and willing to give it another chance. Arrived on a Saturday afternoon, place was not busy, plenty of parking. We sat ourselves (as instructed) in the quieter area, with a big, comfortable booth. First drink was wrong but corrected quickly. Nachos were good and easily shared by 4 even without the added meat. My hubby's broasted chicken was disappointing - the tiniest coleslaw and one wing (of two pieces) that was very small with little meat. Although he said it was good, he was still hungry later. My avocado turkey melt sandwich was good, as was our guests' items. Wait staff was not great - never received our waters as asked for and had to wait for other refills, but it seemed like they were short staffed. Overall, worth another visit since they are so close to home! Looking forward to returning and trying the breakfast."

"I was hoping that TAVERN 22 would be good, being that it’s only a mile or so down the road from where I live, I wanted to add it to my list of “go-to” places that were close to me and conveniently easy to get to…I was NOT disappointed…my cousin and I went on a Friday nite, which is normally “burgers and beer” night, but we were grilling burgers and hotdogs the next nite for our “monthly poker get together” so we had to consult they’re quite large menu for something else…The Tavern was rumored to have good chicken, as well as they’re famous “Juicy Lucy’s”(hamburgers stuffed with cheese) originally introduced to Rochester by the NEWT’S restaurant some years ago…Our waitress Sara (ask for her, she’s GREAT!) confirmed that the chicken was good, so I ordered a crispy chicken sandwich w/coleslaw and my cousin with his larger appetite went with the 1/2 chicken dinner…EXELLENT, is the only word that comes to mind here, piping hot and served up quickly, despite it being a Friday nite…The Tavern is large and split into two sections, one side a family oriented restaurant and the other side a bar with a “sports and game” atmosphere, the latter being a GREAT place to take in a Twins or a Vikings game…In summary, I’ll be going back soon, and I think I’ll have another crispy chicken sandwich and cold beer! Heck, in the summer you can grill your own burgers!!…but just TRY and make chicken like THIS..See you there!!"

"My wife ordered the whitefish with a parmesan crust sandwich. Not only was it good but it was huge. I had a juicy Lucy and it was juicy and done perfectly. I think it would have been better with tomato and onion which u have to ask for and I didn't. My fries were ok. My wife had the coleslaw and she enjoyed it. She also had a bloody mary which was good and had a pretty decent price. We sat out on their patio which we liked. I am sure we will come back again."
