Taverna Costera is a restaurant, bar, art gallery, and music venue located in the arts district of downtown Las Vegas Nevada. They call themselves a Mediterranean Restaurant but they offer an artsy type of food menu that is pretty much fusion everything and or non-traditional. For appetizers they offer things like hibachi ribeye fries, gyro fries, and pork adobo fries, kalua pig nachos, Japanese corn, and minestrone couscous soup. You can also find things like various pita sandwiches, Hawaiian plate lunches, and Taverna/Dragon bowls and plates.

For seating they have indoor seating, bar seating, patio seating and rooftop seating.

We decided to share the (non-traditional) arancini (here they are fried rice balls made with pretzels and topped with pesto).

They do differ from traditional arancini but still are kind of tasty.

For my main I tried the ahi salad.

It’s furikake coated tuna, mixed greens, mango, onion, tomato, wonton crisp noodles, and miso ginger dressing. It’s reasonably good……..Not bad but can use a punch of something……maybe a drizzle of wasabi? or more ginger?

My husband tried the Hawaii meets Philly steak pita with Swiss cheese, peppers, and onions with wasabi mayo on the side and fries.

It’s reasonably good. The beef is tender and has some developed flavor. The cheese is nice and melted. The fries are fresh and hot.

Or for something different they also offer weekend brunch things like………
