Tautog Tavern - Bridgeport

If you looked up the neighborhood bar in the dictionary, there would be a picture of Tautog Tavern next to the definition. Everything about this place cries regularly spot. The staff was very friendly, the food exceptional for a place like this... Unfortunately, they have to work on their timing. We spent a long time waiting between the first and last appetizers, and the first and last main courses were served.

Probably the worst culinary experience ever. When we ordered, there were two tables with Diners. We ordered 2 appetizers, drinks and 4 burgers who came with Fritten. The drinks came and after quite awhile we asked about the apps and they said they were coming. We asked ourselves again and they said they would come with the burgers we said it was not good. They brought the apps and they were delicious. Then they brought 4 huge baskets of Pommes and said the burgers were coming. My rare burger came first. It was good that I sent it back. About 10 minutes later someone else came cold with non-melted cheese, but they decided to eat it. After 40 minutes we asked for the manager and she said I'm sorry that the kitchen is safe, I can bring you everything we had 2 beers for which they accused us. About 15 minutes later another cold burger came out and he decided to eat it. Then my burger came back and they had put cheese on it (I am lactose intolerant) and I sent him back. 10 minutes a burger for me, boiled pink with an almost frozen roll. I left it, put the roll aside and ate the burger. Not a 4th burger. 10 minutes and the last burger came and it was cold and at that time we had sent it back and our friend said he didn't want a replacement and he would eat at home. They took the burgers out of the bill and accused us for the extra beers. We paid, gave up the waitress what the whole bill should have been. She was sweet and beside herself with the terrible experience. You can't pay us to go back.

I brought my daughter about her Katsudon, a traditional Japanese court she had in Japan. It had an American spin in it with the addition of pickles but was really good! The place is a really cool bar that was very welcoming. Would definitely go back!

I knew this place was not going to be fancy and it's not. Basically a bar and apparently some live music but I chose to go to this place because it had some interesting menu items like Japanese Katsudon and some other dishes which you wouldn't expect at a bar/restaurant. Of course the sliders were great and decent verity. The beer selection was decent as well. Will have to go back foe the food.

The staff was very nice and the food was reasonable. it feels very old and it doesn't smell good. I think if they refresh it with a color and new furniture, it would help a lot.
