Tavern on Nostrand

Hi -
Just got back from Tavern on Nostrand (Nostrand between President and Eastern Parkway) where we had a drink and listened to some great jazz. Haven't read anything about this place on this msg board so I thought I'd let you all know that it's well worth a visit. A meny (for take out as well) that looks great with entrees ranging from $9.95 to $20.95; anything from a burger to pan seared red snapper and trout. Haven't tried the food yet but I'm very curious to do so.
The owner, David, is a really great guy who clearly loves his place - which he should; it looks phenomenal and it's just the right size with a few tables and the bar + the area by the door for the live jazz bands. There's live jazz every Saturday night, starting at 7:pm.

Anyway, just thought I should pass on the news of this sweet spot.

There have actually been a bunch of entries on this blog about this place. BUT...it is always good to remind us of the good places to go!! Get out there and eat...and support our local restaurants!! Enjoy!

Here is an earlier entry with address and phone numbers for this "Tavern On Nostrand"... Let us know what you think!!

Is that place right next to the building that partially collapsed, the one with the blue construction scaffold? If so, I haven't been in there yet but I've dealt with the owner several times and he seems like a pretty nice guy. He's a hardworker and he did all the renovations himself. I wish him luck.

No, that's Secrets which is Nostrand between Prospect and Park. Tavern on Nostrand is Nostrand and Union, right next to the MTA substation.

Gotcha, wasn't thinking on that side of Eastern.

since you mention it, what's the story with Secrets? I remember a thread about it when it was just opening but don't remember hearing any details about it since. Any reports on the place?

No, it never opened. I was in the day before the parade and the owner said they would be open in a couple of weeks. They served food for the jouvet, but haven't seen any activity recently. The place appeared to be close to complete then.

I wonder if the problems with the building next door have something to do with the delay.
