Monica CullenSeptember 22, 2016Pink panther cocktail to start, truffle goat cheese croquettes to follow and finally the pan seared Branzino. All delicious! The Branzino is a generous portion--come hungry.
Talk to the bartenders - they're awesome. Fresh ingredients lead to heavenly drinks - personal favorite the watermelon. The people who work there are incredibly friendly, so stay and enjoy company.
Katherine BrownDecember 29, 2014I really like the tuna tartare. I've had it a few times. Lunch or brunch with friends is great here. It's also great for a dinner date, very romantic in the evening.
Mahammatt BabaMay 16, 2016The Duck ragout is very good. The duck is slow cooked and has good flavor. The sauce is light and creamy. Good option if you like duck.
David PalmiereJuly 27, 2016Very nice place we happened on during a downpour. Oysters, beer, and bouillabaisse was mighty fine!
Pete WebbJuly 20, 2017My favorite cafe for midday meetings or brunch dates ... Excellent service & cuisine - Ask for Dan!
- Mahammatt BabaMay 16, 2016The salmon is cooked to perfection with tons of great flavored. The mustard completely goes with the salmon.
Delicious meal of scallops and octopus - slight wait for entree so they gave us amazing chocolate cake gratis. Lovely!
Paige CJanuary 24, 2018Came here for brunch and they were very accommodating and friendly. Delicious burger and awesome appetizers!
Matthew SpectorJune 17, 2015A special bar-only oyster happy hour is a great deal - this place brings the cool and old school to the Upper West.- Mahammatt BabaMay 16, 2016The Apple Tartin is very sweet, but has that strong apple flavor. Definitely a go to if you're into that.
Herm BelcherOctober 1, 2013Borderline stupid prices for their cocktails, everything else is on point. Good service. Great atmosphere.
Marinka YMay 21, 2014Steak tartar is delish! Great selection of wine and whiskey! Awesome service! Love that place!
Yaz MusFebruary 27, 2015Can't go wrong with the food or the cocktails, highly recommend this neighborhood gem.
I've had my share of good cocktails here but today I had a pretty decent brunch too.- Drinks are the bomb. Bartenders are the bomb. This place is the bomb.
FarrahFeroshAugust 4, 2013The vanilla bean French Toast with a side of applewood bacon is the definition of heaven.
Carolyn ZentgrafFebruary 9, 2013Amazing cocktails served by a gorgeous female bartender from TX! What a relief to have a downtown style place uptown!
Andrew CApril 23, 2016Cute little french/American brunch place.... But service was unreasonably slow for an empty-ish restaurant and the omelette was bleeh, nothing special - overall NOT worth $60 for food and 2 drinks
ellen resnickNovember 26, 2013A drop dufficult menu. Nit great to customize to you specifics. Pretty place French influence
Pueblo Viejo TequilaDecember 21, 2016Reflect your inner self in a cocktail mixed with Pueblo Viejo. Ask the bartender of Cafe Tallelulah to make a Tequila Sunrise for you.
DaveFebruary 7, 2015Dollar oysters until 8 PM every night. They go down easy with a $16 house cocktail…
The tarte flambé is amazing. Great for sharing at the bar!
Lily NathansonNovember 27, 2013Great oyster happy hour. $1 a piece for good quality Montauk Pearl oysters!
Giselle ValdezOctober 26, 2014We had the tuna tartare, salmon, and branzino for dinner. All spectacular! Apple crisp was just ok.- Alyssa BereznakFebruary 8, 2015great classic cocktails, yummy steak. sorta expensive but very solid.
- Paige CDecember 28, 2016They close at 2am yet they were turning the music off and trying to clear the place by midnight. Their loss because we were going to order more drinks.
Try the truffle fries. The bartender did magic tricks. Fun place for drinks.
Heather HMay 2, 2015The food was good the service not so much they screwed up my drink...twice! My Eggs Benedict was overcooked and had to ask them to re-do them. Will give it one more try.
The house salad and the Maximilian cocktail are amazing!
Chicken liver mousse is outstanding as is the mushroom ravioli.
Doug ParkerJanuary 19, 2013Make sure you check what they don't have on the menu before you decide. Didn't have 1/3 of menu tonight. Servings are crazy small, prices very high, and service very slow. Not sure I'll be back.
The old fashioned, made with Rittenhouse 100 proof rye. And for your friend a Sailor Jerry.
No worth showing up early for your reservation as their system blows
Katie Smith-AdairApril 29, 2013Oysters are $1 Monday-Thursday, 5-7 p.m. and Friday-Sunday from 4-7 p.m
Good food and great service, the French onion soup is a must!!!
Christine ShepherdSeptember 16, 2013Food was ok, but def not worth the price. Sit at the bar and enjoy the ambiance. If you must eat, the truffle fries are good.
Andrew CohenMarch 24, 2013Mediocre at best! Service came with an attitude, entrees were luke warm. Forgot the frites with the mussels. Server made no effort to make it right. Way too expensive for what we got. OOB < 6 mos.- Pueblo Viejo TequilaDecember 8, 2015If you are in Cafe Tallulah, try a Margarita with Pueblo Viejo Blanco.
