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

Tried this place on a Saturday night. Noisy and casual. We got a table tucked in the back, which was perfect for us! Great food. more

Kool Beanz offers some of the most amazing dishes. You can sit at their bar which overlooks the kitchen and watch the chefs prepare and plate the dishes. Seafood is a real asset in this area and the things these folks do with seafood will make you talk ugly about your ancestors. Just an amazing place to eat. They have... more

By far, one of the best restaurants I have eaten at. First time sitting down to dine in Tallahassee and I couldn't have choosen a better place. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the Buttermilk tabasco chicken and my girlfriend had the Pepper flank steak (both were extra delicious!!). I will definitely stop to eat here every chance I... more

Artsy food in a casual setting. Great place to meet a client for dinner with a 7-year-old in tow. more

Kool Beanz is one of our favorites in Tally. The food has been consistently excellent. We are foodies and winos and find the prices to be very reasonable for the quality and portions. The staff is consistent, friendly, and on top of things. My only complaints would be the short wine list (printed on a bottle) and sometimes the food... more
