We ate at Tallulah in late March to celebrate my husband's birthday. We didn't have a reservation, and the restaurant was full, but the hostess was extremely accomodating and we only waited 10 minutes for a table. In addition, the food was AMAZING. I started with the lobster stuffed deviled egg (1 egg= ~$7) and it was so good that I didn't even mind the price. Unfortunately, the rest of our dining experience was a disaster. After sitting down at our table, we waited 20 minutes before anyone even came by to say hi and take a drink order. Then, when our main course was brought out, the server spilled gravy from my husband's excellent chicken dish down my back and onto my coat.
Would I go back? I'd like to, because the food was so tasty, and we had a good time (plenty of time to chat with each other due to all the waiting) but I might wait a month or two, because they need some time to get the service part of their act together.

I was anxiously awaiting the opening of this place for what seemed like ages. The interior looked nice and it is walking distance to my apartment, so I had hoped this would be my new fav. I was sadly disappointed. Weird vegetarian dishes and strange items that don't seem to fit on the same menu. Not worth the $$$.

Ate there on Saturday night and Tallulah is NOT ready for its close up!
Tables are tragically close together and when we asked the hostess for another table that was empty she informed us that "they made do with the space they had, and this was the only table we could have".
When we sat down the table was wet -- not just moist but wet -- the waiter came to wipe it off...but they should have changed the entire table cloth -- instead he said "I can't see what you mean.." Well the entire table was somehow wet so the menus were curling up!
They were out of 2 out of the 4 red wines by the glass -- that is unacceptable!
The food was good, but not great -- and the waits between courses was long...very long!
For the price point and the food -- there are many restaurants that can run circles around this. While they were packed on their first full weekend since opening -- they can't make it like this.....high prices, low reward.
Had high hope...give it one star...try the tried and true Lincoln Sq places if you must...this will have the same fate Block 44 and other.s...
