In Short
The cozy 75-seat dining area is dominated by warm tones of brick red and mustard yellow. Low lighting is provided by wall sconces and flickering candles on the dark-wood tables. An exhibition kitchen and bar with flat-screen television add visual interest. A typical meal might include the grilled-shrimp tamale appetizer served with fava beans and roasted poblano chilies and continue with crispy skin yellowtail snapper served with sweet-potato and wild-mushroom risotto and arugula.

We ate there during our Christmas-New Years vacation to Miami Beach. My wife has celiac (gluten intolerance) and our server made sure her selections were gluten-free. We could hear him making the order in the open kitchen and were re-assured. Meal was wonderful and extremely flavorful. Great service, specials on wine and an incredible meal for us.

Flew into Miami from New York and stayed at the Gansvoort (nice property, but they need to get their act together)- to have a fun vacation with my fiance and we love food. I had done my homework and so did she- we ate at all the best City Search, Zagat & friend rated restaurants and Talula took the best overall restaurant award for the 5 day trip. To keep it simple- The food was the best part- the service- excellent- my server has been at Talula for 5 years! he calls it home and the ambiance comfortable and "downtown NY ish"- right up our alley. A place I will highly recommend for the night that you don't need the "Sobe Scene". We found the Sobe Scene and the hype most of the restaurants down there are known for- most notably Prime 112- get real with this place- why we had to wait 30 minutes is just unclear still as tables were open- the worst overall. Sardinia-good- but was expected to get blown away form all the hype- also a bit out of the way, Casa Tua- good food, but I am a big guy and left hungary and $400.00 poorer. Nobu- great food- great scene-

Talula was excellent! My boyfriend and I dined here after we requested a "quiet, American restaurant" from our hotel Concierge. The meal was delicious (we both had steak), the wine was excellent (a wonderful reccomendation from our server) and the dessert (chocolate & banana bread pudding) and after-dinner drinks were phenomenal. The most outstanding part of our evening was the service we received; Kevin was the best server either of us has ever encountered. We will be returning to Talula on our next trip to South Beach!
