“ Talula’s is a Philadelphia institution. I never made it when I lived in Philly so a Valentine’s Day trip with my girlfriend seemed like the perfect excuse. We ate on a Sunday night and the place was packed. We got a good mix of items from the menu and everything was delicious! Especially the Cheddar-Chive biscuits. I also love the decor inside, which includes plants, bookshelves with real books, and many interesting architectural twists. If you can get a reservation here, either for lunch or dinner. This place is not to be missed! Definitely check it out. ”
“ One of Philly’s Premier Restaurants, Talula’s garden is part of the STARR Restaurants group, offers a farm-to-table menu that highlights local ingredients, and features indoor and outdoor dining spaces adorned with lush greenery. We celebrated with an absolutely delicious Bronzino (lemon scented white bean puree, toasted garlic-anchovy-chili vinaigrette, basil oil & baby kale) that was shared with perfectly seasoned salmon (pistachios, honey glazed beets, & candied lemon-herb vinaigrette) and finished off with ‘Churro Spiced’ Donuts (dulce de leche caramel and whipped cream). Check out the photos and enjoy the experience! ”
“ I was brought here for my birthday dinner and it was a surprise. Exceeded Philadelphia expectations! One of the best restaurants I've ever been to by far. Extraordinary in every way. Just superb. ”
“ One of the best brunches I’ve ever been to. The service was friendly and prompt. The outdoor area was cute and cozy (heat lamps were necessary since temps were in the 30s). The avocado toast and apple cider donuts were standouts but everything was delicious. Talulah’s lived up to the hype! ”
“ One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Delicious mocktail to start followed by an incredible beet salad and then ravioli in mushroom sauce. Dessert was a delicate creme brulee. I can’t wait to go back ”
“ Truly a 5-star restaurant in every way it can be: a warm and inviting atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and completely delicious food that impressed me from start to finish. All that, with the best park in Philadelphia directly across the street. It’s a really great experience and I can’t recommend it enough. ”
“ This place is a must visit! The food, the service is beyond excellent! We ordered the potato and leek soup, meatballs and biscuits for appetizers. Then ordered the pork chop and the scallops and shrimp. Everything was perfect and served with efficiency. ”
“ Where should I begin? If I could give 100 stars I would. The atmosphere was brilliant. We felt special with smiles the entire time we were there. The food was delicious and so much thought went into every tasty bite. Our waitress was so kind and knowledgeable. The owner even came to greet us at our table and introduced herself. Everything was so delightful. Truly an exceptional delight. Absolutely 100 stars. ”
