    Sadly, this review addresses how this otherwise very good restaurant that we have been to three times found a way to alienate us. We arrived this evening at 6:32 for our 6:30 reservation. My wife and I took our daughter and her boyfriend to dinner before the end of spring break. The restaurant advertises that for a party of four they expect you to leave within two hours. After we had finished dinner and my wife ordered a decaf cappuccino, three other employees approached the table to ask if we wanted anything else, none recognizing that we had already declined dessert and had already ordered the coffee. Then, at approximately 7:45, 1 hour and 15 minutes into our visit, another employee approached us, asked how dinner was and said "we really need this table". I told him we had only been there 75 minutes which he seemed to question. All he had to do was check our reservation. When I said we planned to leave he never apologized or acknowledged his mistake. So we just left. We like the restaurant having been there three times already. But this was a real way to leave a very bad taste in our mouths. There are too many good restaurants to have to be treated this way after spending almost $300 on dinner.

    Tala house was a wonderful experience. The server was helpful and friendly. The food was delicious and mock-tails creative. There were plentiful choices of beautiful and delicious desserts. I enjoyed the elegance of the mid-century modern decor. I recommend you visit Tala House.

    Food is spectacular. The flavors and details they put into their dishes are out of this world. Drinks are fabulous as well. My new favorite local spot!

    You can write that you are coming to Tala House for a birthday but that doesn't mean they will do anything for you. We saw them bring a candle-lit dessert and sing happy birthday to another table, but not ours.
