    We came here in December 25' and got severe by Giovanni and had a great experience, we've been wanting to road trip again and make another visit. This time we were served by Pablo who gave excellent service, the food was amazing. The clam chowder by far is the best around! Can't wait to make another trip back.

    My mom and I always enjoy our time at Tarpy’s. We sat outside on the patio and it was so nice; we had the whole side patio to ourselves. We had Claire as our waitress and she was so great! She told us she just started, but she did an amazing job! I had the angus burger with fries and it was so good! My mom had the Cobb salad. The manager, Adam, came out to say hello to us, too. We always feel like family when we come to Tarpy’s!
