Editorial Review for Dan Marino's Town Tavern – by Brian C. Swartzwelder

The Scene
Picture wood, leather, carpet, steel, stone, tile and glass all intertwined, working together to produce perfect unity. An open kitchen, flat-screen televisions and large windows offer a perfect pre-dining atmosphere. The adjacent martini bar opens at night for evening libations.

The Food

The menu is creative and detailed, with mouthwatering accents such as apple-smoked bacon and chipotle-lime vinaigrette. A lunch menu provides most of the same dinner treats at a lesser price. The sesame-seared tuna is wonderful, cooked medium rare over a bed of crispy Oriental vegetables, thin noodles, wasabi and ginger-soy vinaigrette. Wash it down with a Shotgun or Quarterback colada. Finish with the almond basket, a baked almond brittle with fresh berries.

im not sure how the food is there at the tavern as i had to leave florida due to autoway nations poor business ethics and fraudulant sales tactics at there honda clearwater u.s 19 north location which dan marino is a spokesman for . i sure hope he reads this or is imformed of it and the other peoples complaints about this company and that he quits his association with them and letting a company like this use his picture and good honest name.

Pros: dan marino stands for honesty.

Cons: autoway nation does not.

We decided to head over to Dan Marino's for a pre-game meal before the BoSox vs Devil Rays game and were delightfully surprised with the diverse menu. The Lettuce Wraps we ordered as an appetizer were beautifully presented and full of flavor, and light enough to leave room for the rest of our meal. We ordered the chicken parm and the ahi tuna. Both meals were excellent. The tuna was top quality and exceptional. Although it was an extremely busy Saturday night due to the BoSox being in town, the high energy staff was extremely attentive and we received our food within 10 mins. The manager came by to make sure our meal met our expectations...and it did. We're looking forward to another outstanding experience on our next visit.

Pros: Fun atmosphere, lively music, high energy staff.

Cons: Sometimes crowded
