We absolutely loved it. The food was fantastic. The atmosphere was cozy. We can't wait to go back!
After making a reservation well in advance we arrived on time and were seated at a table right outside the restroom doors. I politely asked if we could be relocated to a different one whereupon we were shone to an even worse table right by the entrance door and the hostess stand. With waiting crowds hovering by our table and gusts of frigid air exposing us to the elements every time the door opened our night was ruined. No thanks to a return trip. Once was more than enough.
We held another small business dinner here and, as always, the food was excellent. Also, service is outstanding and the noise level is low enough where you can hear everyone around the table.
Amazing. Will definitely return when in the area. We had spinach and artichoke dip (best I've ever had), father's salad with quince (very good), salmon and potatoes (very good) and blondie dessert (excellent). Tatum was awesome and attentive server. Yum!
The food was fantastic. It's a smaller restaurant than I thought it would be but we really enjoyed ourselves. Drinks were also very good!!
We weren't seated for 30+ minutes after the reservation and then were seated by the door, even though it was a special occasion. The food is always lovely and seasonal, and our server was attentive.
Phenomenal dining experience. Meals were perfectly prepared. One diner has celiac and staff were very knowledgeable and ensured all meals properly prepared to be gluten free. Actually only one minor modification was even needed. Service was excellent and can't wait to go back!
A+. From the first bite to the last, the food was excellent—fresh, vibrant, and thoughtfully prepared and presented. Every dish tasted like it was made with care and passion, striking that perfect balance between bold flavor and lightness that keeps you wanting to try one more thing. The service was just as impressive: warm, attentive, and effortlessly professional. Our server, Angela, was knowledgeable, paced the meal perfectly, and made us feel genuinely welcome the entire time. Well done! In short: a standout experience and an easy recommendation.
Great cheese board to start. Terrific tuna ceviche. Everyone loved their entrees branzino, salmon and chicken with gnocchi. Too full for dessert. Will def go again. Perfect location close to theaters. Make sure to reserve, it was packed at 5:00 on a frigid Wed night.
Great dining experience last night. We had a relatively quiet corner table, during peak dinner time, which is not always easy to find these days. The food was, as always, wonderful. But the service was superb - especially helpful and friendly. We were a table of 5 and had cocktails, shared appetizers and sides, and had a variety of entrees; all of which were delicious. We didn't think we could eat dessert. But we managed to finish the lemon soufflé (highly recommended) and complementary chocolate desserts. Thanks for a really wonderful evening!

Great experience at Talula's garden. The atmosphere, food and service were all wonderful. We were celebrating a family birthday and everyone had a great time. Will be back again!
Oh my, the ambience was excellent. The food portions were right on point and all of the food was cooked really well. I personally had the pork chop and it was excellent with a little bit of smokiness to it. Everything was really good. All the desserts all the appetizers, even the cappuccino. 
Had a Delicious meal! Our waiter Nikola was fantastic! So helpful with ordering decisions!
Delicious meals at affordable prices. There was plenty of seats and a serene environment when we arrived for lunch. The personnel was warm and inviting, and the setting is sophisticated without being formal. The filled grape leaves, moussaka, and mucver were all delicious. It's the perfect place to pause between shopping and a concert because of its location between Lincoln Center and Columbus Circle. Overall, a wonderful dinner experience.
Top notch service. I couldn’t believe how great the service here was. They all work together flawlessly. We parked right out front and just paid for a hour and 45 minutes using up all but 10 minutes. (Cost $7.45) We had made a reservation on open table. They called to confirm. We got there a little early (as we were coming from out of town) but they were able to seat us within a few minutes. The bill adds up quick but everything looked so good we just had to order a bunch. Appetizers My favorite part of the meal was the fall farmstead salad. It was plentiful and had such a clean taste to it. Everything was fresh and crisp and I loved it. The biscuits are a must get. The meatballs were ok, I wouldn’t say they were worth the price point. Dinner My wife got the steak and there was so much food on her plate she couldn’t finish. The steak was cooked to temperature and tasted amazing. I got the chicken and gnocchi. It’s supposed to be something they serve year round but it was meh. The chicken was moist but the gnocchi didn’t have much flavor even though it had a brown sauce on it. We ordered additional sides. The broccoli with the lemon sauce was really good. The Thai cucumber salad had a spice to it that I wasn’t a fan of. We were too full for dessert so we didn’t try it. The service really made the night. Nikhil was the server so ask for him
