About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Great for fine wines
  • Romantic
Telepan is an urban restaurant that serves innovative farm-to-table dishes and wine in upscale surrounds. Helmed by chef-owner Bill Telepan, the market-drive menu features over two dozen dishes (excluding dessert). Menu highlights include the house-smoked book trout and lobster Bolognese. Guests can dine a la carte, or spoil themselves with a lavish four-course prix fixe dinner. This restaurant also boasts an impressive wine list, carefully curated to complement the dining menu. Tucked on the ground floor of an elegant townhouse, Telepan is a nice pick for special occasions. The restaurant's four-course tasting menu (which comes with optional wine pairing) provides the perfect culinary tonic for a romantic night out. Telepan is open for lunch and dinner, Monday through Sunday.

    I have been to Telepan for lunch and dinner on many occasions over the past few years and it has been consistently superb. Food, service, ambience, all are world-class. A treat to have such a special place on the UWS.

    Food was excellent and service attentive and kind. Excellent value for money at brunch. Unfortunately, pancake soufflés were really disappointing (cold and more like muffins). The rest of the food was amazing though.

    Met a girlfriend I hadn't seen in 30 years at Telepan for brunch and it was the perfect spot in every way! Cannot wait to go back with my husband for dinner!

    While the outside was unseasonably cold, wet, and windy; inside Telepan was warm, welcoming, and delicious. Our party had the tasting menu paired with an excellent wine recommended for the varied selections. The service was prompt and efficient, not rushed and not stuffy - simply a very comfortable experience. While all the food was superb, the swordfish was possibly the best I've ever had.

    Went here for brunch with some friends and for the prix fixe menu, the cost/quality ration was pretty spectacular. Also, I really recommend the chipotle bloody mary. It was watery in a way really didn't bother me because the overall flavor was robust and spicy.
