Livestock Tavern

Normally a great place but for a Sunday night with a full house(normally full on Sundays) they only had 2 servers and 1 cook. This drastically ruined the experience at a place that again is normally excellent.

This restaurant was amazing!! The food, atmosphere and wait staff were top notch! I was definitely pleasantly surprised. We were a large party of 14 and the staff seemed to handle our large party very cool and calmly and with everything coming out at the right time and the right temperature. I will definitely go back!

What a neat atmosphere. Wonderful experience. Great food and service!

We Love having dinner with our Emotional Support Dog, Rocky. They welcome him so we support this business!! Great food, good prices and Dean makes the BEST drinks!

Great deal, can't beat a $40 prime rib.

The world food tour made a return visit to Livestock Tavern after taking in the Tan Dun concert at Hawaii Theater. Our reservations were for 6:45pm but we arrived at 5pm after leaving the concert at intermission. We went for the first half and Gustav Mahler is just not my cup of tea. We were the first patrons of the evening and we were seated at a table for two in a corner … Perfect for us. I ordered a 2018 Neyers Pinot Noir from their Placida Vineyard in the Russian River Valley. The wine was a deep ruby color with a great deal of red fruit, cola undertones and the right amount of acidity. Our appetizers were the Bourbon and Bone Marrow and the Pumpkin & Brussels. The bone marrow needed more time under the salamander as we like our marrow with the bones browned. The roasted garlic and mushrooms somewhat overwhelmed the marrow … Another reason for caramelization of the bones. The pumpkin and brussels were excellent … I would be satisfied with just this dish and a side of crisped bacon. The pumpkin was perfect … The combination of brussels sprouts, bacon and balsamic is simply wonderful. Our entrees were the seared duck breast and the grilled rack of lamb. The duck was moist and tender and the lamb was well seasoned and prepared as I like it … medium rare. The lamb was served with assorted root vegetables; the duck came with asparagus, potatoes atop a pumpkin puree. We shared a warm apple tart for dessert. This was the sole disappointment of the evening. The Granny Smith apple was cut into large chunks … IMO, it would have been far better had the apple been cut into thin slices. I make this dessert at home and thinly sliced apples is far easier to cook properly than large chunks of apple. Final thoughts … Livestock Tavern offers interesting dishes at a very reasonable price … I wish they would re-open for lunch.
