Tatiana by Kwame Onwuachi Reviews
My wife and I generally eat for five people, we ordered 4 small plates and 2 mains, still looking into dessert. Each dish had its own layer of perfection with unique flavors and exquisite presentation. I’d say a restaurant on its way to becoming Michelin…..bravo! Oh and the ole school hip hop added to the vibe. Enjoyed this dinner date immensely!👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😎😎😎
The food is absolutely amazing!
Curried goat patties - delicious, the braised oxtails- succulent, short rib pastrami suya - melts in your mouth.
Absolutely #1 Restaurant in NYC
Curried goat patties, Snow Crab entree, best hummus dish ever and inventive strawberry short cake riff. Chill music vibe. Knowledgeable and attentive and most importantly genuinely friendly staff. Love this place.

The restaurant is praised for its celebration of African American culture and cuisine, with each dish telling a unique story. The cooking insists that African American food belongs in the same conversation as other haute cuisine. The unique juxtaposition of Tatiana within Lincoln Center is itself a statement, with its stark style and urban cultural influence standing alongside an institution that was synonymous with European high art.
The energy in Tatiana is equally buzzy and feels closer to a nightclub or block party than a fine dining restaurant. The playlist is immaculate, sampling R&B, Hip-Hop and rap greatest hits, which adds to the atmosphere and performance. Reservations are still hard to come by, and guests may experience a wait, but the staff are sincere and hardworking, and the overall experience is exceptional.
