The restaurant itself is so cute! Everyone was super friendly, they had good music playing and most of the customers were vibing. We were there on a Monday night so there were half priced apps and drinks. Food came out quickly and was so delicious, we tried the chicken cracklins, sweet chili wings, and drinks to start. We’re from out of town so we had red beans and rice and a po boy for mains which also came out fast and tasted great. Sweet potato beignets are a MUST!

Service and ambience were amazing! My only disappointment was not being able to get an egg-white omelet in place of a regular omelet.

It was my first time to Tana. It’s was as good as advertised. Jason was excellent and the food was tasty and delicious. A very pretty restaurant but casual enough to not have to over dress. My only request is that they add a few more pasta recipes. 4 isn’t enough in my opinion. I will definitely go back.
