“Enjoyed a first time lunch today that will have us coming back the next time we are on RT 896.”

“Ole Tapas has come to our event for two years in a row and they are definitely a favorite. The food is always prepared to perfection and the staff is always so kind and professional. I personally always recommend the street tacos. We are so grateful for the hard workers over at Ole Tapas.”

“The food was phenomenal and the atmosphere and customer service was outstanding. Ms. Kim made sure every needs was met. The menu was easy to navigate . Definitely will be back.”

“Yummy. Breakfast so good,”

“We ate here last night, we had the best food and the best waiter! It was a treat all around!”

“Excellent pizza! Didn't want to judge too quickly so decided to wait until we ordered again. This time, it was just as good and the service was just as helpful and friendly. I am gluten free, (not celiac) so we gave theirs a shot along with the regular ones we ordered. All I can say is WOW! I have tried so many places in the area hoping to find a GF crust that resembles 'real' pizza, and Stone Mill has figured it out! I asked if it was cauliflower crust or a blend, and the person answering the phone happily gave us the ingredients of what it is made from, without sounding annoyed at the time it took to explain. The crust is great, not pre-made and thankfully not cauliflower. It's not paper thin and came out well done with that charred look and wood fire taste like original crust has. But most importantly, it was delicious. It's not a tiny little 10" crust, or a personal size - it's the same size as all the others. (I was so excited when I saw it I dove right in without taking a picture!) The whole experience, from the politeness when ordering on the phone, to the finished products were great. It's amazing how many places make it sound like they are doing you the favor when they take an order. Great pizza and great service. This is the only place we will order from going forward.”

“Administrative details - While you usually must make a reservation a year in advance (which I did), there are a very few earlier spots available on their website. In addition, if you are on the email list, they send the occasional last-minute availability. Talula’s is BYOB. The price was $125 and with all the other things, taxes, gratuities, it came to $160. The Nook Table is available for 6-8 diners and the Farm Table is for larger parties. Website link is below. Everything is presented in “tasting” small portions. In addition to the menu, they provided a couple of additional offerings. I did not do a good job of capturing the delightful descriptions of the food provided by our server. (The next time I go, I will video the descriptions if they allow.) The group did a great job of bringing wine which was beautifully poured in appropriate glassware by our server. The server also paired the wine with the offerings for us! The service was exceptional without being pretentious. After each tasting, plates, utensils and glasses were cleared and refurbished so discreetly that you hardly noticed. The menu changes with the “farm to table” availability. My favorite was a squash tarte. [I was delighted to find that I did not like the foie gras. It is “made” in a most inhumane and horrible way. This is the only time I have eaten it and I will never eat it again.] I was sorry to find that by the Black Garlic Beef Ribeye (#6 on the list), I was getting to the point of “too much food.” The only downsides were “too much food” for most of us and the wines they suggested for the pairings were hard/impossible to find. I personally did not like the varieties of wines they suggested for pairings. The rest of the party enjoyed the comparable wines they were able to find and allowed the server to pair with the tastings. I will be making a reservation for next year very soon. I have already made a reservation for the “sister” Talula’s Garden in Philly for September.”

“This is the best lunch spot on main street. Great value for money, and the staff are really nice”

“Nia was so helpful with a consultation for a cake for a baby shower! She really took the time to listen to what we wanted and was nothing but professional! Will recommend based on customer service alone!

**UPDATE**
Mom to be absolutely loved her cake! The cannoli filing was perfect and not only was the cake beautifully decorated but it was absolutely delicious as well! Highly recommend doing delivery as it was one less thing we had to worry about and everything ran smoothly.”

“We stop in once a week. Sometimes we eat there and sometimes we call and pick up. The atmosphere is fabulous. If we ever do have to wait for our food, it’s totally worth it. If my husband and I are together we sit and have wine while we wait. They are all very friendly! If we get take out, we always get extra so we can have leftovers, which are always delicious. We reheat the pizza in the toaster oven, it’s amazing. We also love the desserts there! It’s just a great spot and we love it! I’ve never once been disappointed with any of their service or food.”

“Wow, wow, wow! Wow for the cheesesteak! Fresh chunks of meat, mushrooms, and onions! Wow for the gluten free pizza! Loved the flavor and crispy crust and great fresh cheese! Wow for the price! It was amazing for the wonderful food! I only wish they would list price on the menu! You will still enjoy every bite!”

“If you’re looking for that spot that locals know, that you wish you knew, that you would never suspect unless someone told you….. yeah, this is that spot.

It’s hidden under an apartment complex, next to a generic looking liquor store, off the main road, next to a bus depot, like seriously, you have to know to know. So consider yourself told.

Food is delicious, and abundant. Absolutely a good value for money.”

“Fantastic ice cream spot. They make it all fresh from the milk from the cows in the farm right beside. Loved the fact that they decided to share the produce in such an innovative way. The location is also fantastic. Offering picturesque views of the surrounding landscape, the farm and the creamery. They have nice spots to sit on just outside the creamery. They had a good variety of choices too. The ice cream was very refreshing. Would definitely recommend giving this a try, whether you're an ice cream enthusiast, or someone who just wants to try something new.”

“We love the Kennett Square victory! Great food, great people, and obviously great beer!”

“Had a great meal at ugly dumpling, greeted with great service right away! Service was personable and accommodating to my stroller and a high chair for toddler. The establishment is extremely clean and beautifully designed. Waitress was helpful in assisting with menu, family style small plates, 3-4 plates for a couple suggested. We loved the dumplings with spicy sauce on side and sesame noodles. So fun to see everyone working on hundreds of beautiful, delicate, and delicious dumplings! 🥟 thank you ugly dumpling team!”

“Great service and Great food. Especially the #23 on the menu my absolute favorite”

“I really loved this place. The food is absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend it to everyone. It’s truly amazing. The people who work here are very friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is cozy, comfortable, and everything tastes great.”

“The 'Hot Italian' is the very best sandwich I've ever tasted. There is absolutely nothing they can do to make it any better unless it came with a winning lottery ticket.

“Absolute fire ! Some of the best wings that I've ever had. Such unique dry rubs and sauces. A must try for sure !”

“Best cheese steak I've had in a long time. Roll was soft plenty of meat and the extras I ask for was their. Please don’t change what you did tonight 8/13. Love being able to get order through drive-thru. Thank you”

Delivery was prompt and professional, and everything arrived exactly as promised. It truly made our event! So grateful to have such a fantastic local option.”

“I've ordered takeout a couple times from this place and everyone's I've been impressed with the depth of flavor and quality of the food. The spice levels are a little high, but that's not a complaint.”

“Great place for Greek food, desserts, and, of course, Greek coffee! I am Greek, and I haven't been able to find a place in the States that offers “Freddo Cappuccino”. Yesterday, I did! Excellent flavor!”

“Found this place about a month ago looking for a Pizza place open on Sunday during Eagles game. Very impressed with the pizza and have ordered from at least once a week since. Dining room is cozy and reminds us of Hugos Inn from back in the day. Great Pizza!”

“Ali Baba has amazing food! love the Salmon and Kabobs! They participated in the Newark Arts Alliance Taste of Dessert competition again this year, and their Baklava took 1st place - the best!”
