  About 3 weeks I saw this small restaurant in the "Old Downtown" district of Moore and thought to myself that I should give them a try.. So the following week I stopped in on Thursday (I believe) to have a late lunch. I came through the door and was introduced to a very informative menu board of today's specials. I was in the mood to try an Onion cheese burger (with very dark onions and grilled jalapenos), with extra crispy fries & gyro meat without the pita bread or sauce. The response from the waitress at the counter was..."no problem, we'll have it right up". WOW, with my extra requests that I asked for I expected some push back but instead it was met with "No Problem". I grabbed my drink and took a seat (seating was limited - they seem to do a lot of to-go business). I forgot to mention that I came in after 1:00 so they were starting to slow up a little. My dinner was brought to me by the Owner, Kevin. He and the others wanted to make sure that everything was great...and it was excellent. Then Kevin and I were discussing the food business and we got on the subject of Smoked Meats...He does Smoked Brisket and Pork Ribs on I believe Thursday, Friday and Saturday. He then went to check on another guest and I heard him say that they have a live band on Saturday (not sure if that's every Saturday or not)...now Kevin is Showing this couple and I the patio out back where the band sets up. I am assuming that they serve Food and beer, sodas and such out there. We talked for awhile longer and Kevin served me a taste of the Smoked Brisket and Ribs...I enjoy smoked meats and they do a super job on both, great flavor and not overpowering with too much smoke (and seasoning).
  I came back last week with my one of my daughters for lunch...it was very good and now it's Thursday and I am going in for the Hot Dogs today (getting it to-go for one of my brothers) and not sure what else... here shortly I will know
  Thumbs up on, The Taverna!

  I eat all over the city and this little gem remains one of my favorite places. The gyros, hummus, chicken; they are all consistently wonderful. Recently they added BBQ on the weekend and it too is just plain good.
