    Nice brunch spot. Good mocktails. Wish the eggs were cooked in the shakshouka, not cooked separately and placed on top.

    We love Tala! Today was the first time we tried brunch, and it did not disappoint! The French toast, the beef/pastrami omelette, the pancakes, the breakfast potatoes, and the herb omelette/frittata were all scrumptious with lots of flavor. We decided to sit on the patio today on a lovely day with a bright blue sky. Tala has been one of our favorite dinner places! The service is always exceptional. What a gem has been added to the neighborhood! Thank you Tala!

    Tala House is a great place to have in the neighborhood. While outstanding when it first opened, food quality has slipped. What was once subtle spicing in their dishes has become overpowering and exaggerated. Maybe just a bad night?! If you are seated at the table for two near the kitchen, you will leave smelling like the kitchen. Friendly owner and great drinks are nice, but I hope they pay attention to keeping an elevated cuisine, especially for the price point. Keep at it, please.

    Our server, Blake, was incredible and knew the menu front and back. The service was great and the food was to die for. Definitely will be returning soon. Excellent music choices too.

    The food was lovely and flavorful, the drinks were very tasty and the staff were very kind, efficient and quiet. It was a great place for our family’s Easter brunch. The Muhammara, shakshuka, and omelets were amazing and the desserts were swoon worthy! We will definitely be back soon!
