Talde - Enough Said
Talde is another new restaurant in Brooklyn's South Slope (and probably one of the biggest). I had the pleasure of trying Talde out two weeks ago and it was quite the pleasure. Although the wait was long (little more than an hour) it was definitely worth it. I should note that for better or worse I am in no way a professional restaurant reviewer.
While you wait I would suggest grabbing a seat at the bar and trying out some of the specialty cocktails.
Everything at Talde can be done homestyle which is great. As long as you are comfortable sharing with your dining companions you can try a variety of different plates. I wasa able to sample the pretzel pork and chive dumplings, Korean fried chicken, crispy oyster and bacon pad Thai, and the shrimp friend rice. Did I mention that I am not even a seafood person and I loved all the dishes? That alone says a lot about the quality of food.
After seeing that space vacant for so long and then watching construction inside for months on end its great to see that this establishment is both open and bustling.
Talde is open daily from 5pm – 12am. Reservations for parties of 6 or more only and you have to go in person to put your name on the list.
Oh and if you like Talde and the Thistle Hill Tavern then you're in luck - John Bush, David Massoni and Dale Talde who are the owners of Talde and the Thistle Hill Tavern will be opening a third restaurant in the Slope at the old Aunt Suzie’s on 5th Avenue.
