The menu changes frequently and is always very eclectic. Menu items tend to be somewhat out there, but there's always something for the less adventurous as well. I prefer going for lunch, because it's a lot cheaper and the menu is the same. When it's offered, I highly recommend the Almost Vegetarian platter with Mac and Cheese, friend green tomatoes,... more

I ate here and one of the fish dishes - probably the biggest hunk of fish I've ever seen served on a plate. It was delicious. That being said, the dishes aren't that inventive, but what they serve it up well. Good wine list, friendly service! more

After reading the reviews I really thought the food was going to be excellent. It is true that the restaurant is eclectic and different but I was not impressed by the taste of the food. The food was almost just flat out nasty. My husband and I did not finish our food at all!! We both had almost a full... more

Back when Jeb! used to frequent Kool Beanz I assumed that this place was too much for me. I was so wrong! The food is amazing, the menu creative, and the price is fabulous for the tremendous volume of food they serve. When my husband and I have a date night... this is the place for us. If you are... more

My husband and I stopped here for lunch when traveling through Tallahasse. As the other reviewers mentioned it's a very hip and colorful place. The menu items are unique. I had the frogs legs, which was very good. My husband ordered the stir fry, but it was not asian stir fry as he is accostomed to, so he was not... more

We recently tried this restaurant because of good reviews in Tripadvisor and they were right! This is a great casual, arty-type cafe. The new outdoor section is a little industrial-chic looking but don't let that put you off. The food is fantastic! We tried the scallops and the mahi mahi--both were excellent! The cafe offers upscale food at reasonable prices.... more

Unless recommended to go, we would have driven straight past this great find. The menu is so different, not your normal salad, baked potato or french fries. Price is reasonable for what we got, our starter of falafel and hummus was out of this world. Portions were huge, and service was good. I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Tally to... more

Tried to have a nice meal, yelling across the table, but it's hard. The dishes were all so complicated. My husband likes seafood, but I don't and I found it hard to find much on the menu. Wine was good. Desserts were OK, nothing special. more

Quality fusion ina noisy environment which keeps it from a fifth star. A very good beer and wine selection by local standards. more
