Went there on Monday Presidents’ Day. Was surprised how busy they were and I think they were also! We had drinks and then went elsewhere to eat. Definitely will go back, McCalls is a great place. It was just a weird night.

Three of us much enjoyed our lunch at Thea. Service was superb and food was very tasty. Our server was very attentive even after we paid our check and hung out to talk more! The only thing that could have been better would have been if gas fireplace was turned on. It was a cold winter day!

Washington Square
About the restaurant
Behind the wrought iron gate, past the herbaceous patio and through the atrium is Talula's Garden, the warm and elegant Washington Square eatery from Aimee Olexy and Starr Restaurants. The modern menu, prepared with carefully-sourced ingredients and a light European touch, changes with the seasons. The artful cuisine, hospitable staff, sustainable spirits, and a focus on cheese make the dining experience here incredibly memorable.

This might be the very best restaurant that I’ve ever been to- Talula’s food was innovative and delicious! The hospitality of this restaurant was above and beyond —from the greeting of the hostess to a visit from the manager to a charming and gracious server. From cocktails to dessert this meal was amazing!

So happy that their Sunday brunch is back! Food choices were amazing. Complementary glass of champagne or mimosa is a nice touch.

First time ever visiting….The guy that welcome us was very nice, we had GREAT FOOD, Amazing beer and dessert . The server was so nice, very helpful with our child that is celiac and has to avoid all gluten products. She was so very nice helping hher pick out yummy safe food and drinks. We would go again, but One thing I will NOT do again is book the outside a lot of parents not watching their children , the one children was not well behaved running around all the inside the greenhouse and the other was screaming at an iPad. Over all the food and staff was 10 out of 10 !!!
