They started us off with a croissant on the house, which was pretty good. Nice attention to detail as it was served with a heart-shaped side of butter. Also part of their happy hour menu are a couple select bar bites. I went for the chicken quesadillas, and it was a hearty portion at their price point. And it had a great flavor - chicken was nice and juicy. Natalie was our server, and was very attentive and friendly throughout our time here. And just when we thought it couldn't get better, Natalie and the manager brought us some cookies on the house to take home. Nothing but praise to be sung about this spot - I hear they're looking into possibly incorporating live music next. Will definitely be back - two thumbs up!

This place has been renamed "Austin Street coffee and grill" and has an updated menu…read more First off, I want to point out the great customer service from the young man working on a Saturday morning. I heard him making jokes with customers and asking people for feedback. Now to the rest of it: service is weird and slow. When we were seated, we had to wait a little bit until receiving menus. Water wasn't automatically given to us also, so you have to ask. A woman took down our order, but later asked if we got waffles, even though I said pancakes - overall took 25 minutes to get our order of a salad and pancakes. Pancake platter came with two pancakes, two eggs, and a couple berries on the side. There's also an option to add sausage or bacon but no price there, which adds to the confusion. When we pointed it out, they removed the charge from our bill. There were maybe 3 people who stood behind the coffee bar which is kind of around a corner, making it hard to get service if you're not in their field of vision. Kind of strange there isn't a clear welcoming desk or something like that. Also, I think the menu uses AI as photos - there's a picture of a burger with fries and chips, but I don't think they serve chips. There's also a picture of cake with garlic next to it, which could be an artistic choice. We didn't get any drinks, but there was a table next to us who abandoned their full cups of Nutella lattes which was interesting.

THEIR BRANZINO IS THE BEST IN THE CITY!!!!! YES, I SAID…read moreIT!!! ASK FOR EXTRA SAUCE ON THE SIDE!!!! This is probably my 4th or 5th visit and each visit has us ordering the Branzino, that should tell you something. Also note, I'm not a 'fish person', and I can't get enough of this Branzino. In addition to the AMAZING BRANZINO, we enjoyed steak frites, oxtail croquettes, fried calamari and a Boston wedge salad. Everything was amazing and delicious. The calamari has a sweet honey sauce drizzled on it. The salad was fresh and crisp, delicious dressing and crispy bacon included. We were very full but there's always room for dessert. Tried the key lime pie, stellar. If you're in Forest Hills be sure to check out White Radish. Staff is very friendly and amazing from beginning to end. Restaurant noise level is low to average. I'll be dreaming of that Branzino sauce tonight, ah, until next time :)

And the place seems nice enough where it's not too loud. I was surprised to see only 1 other table. It's lunch time, I thought there would be more business. The service was good except the waiter kept on asking us if we wanted a starter. We politely declined a few times. The food was good. I ordered a cheeseburger and my friend ordered the 1/2 chicken. She said it was a little salty. But OK. My burger/fries was $19 and the chicken $22. Overall, it was OK. It is a nice restaurant. They should really offer lunch specials like the rest of Forest Hills restaurants. They can draw more people in for lunch. Bareburger has a lunch special $15 for any burger/fries with a soda. Mad for Chicken has lunch specials too.

The pink walls, there was a bookshelf available with books to read and cat photos to gaze upon. There was menus available at the front to take and review and we can sit down as the food is brought to us. It's more so of an Asian menu with bubble tea, green teas/black teas hot and cold options and eats such as salads, banh mi's, Chinese jianbings, sandwiches, and some dim sum like the shrimp dumplings I got. It was 10 for $10 which was a pretty good deal as that is affordable and it was delicious. It came out fast and warm and I finished it quickly with my friend. I also got some fruit green teas and it was the perfect balance of sweet and taste of the teas. My friend got the bacon cheese jianbing (not pictured) and it was bigger than she imagined with a lot of fillings. It was very much worth it and I would come back here again!

Slightly disappointed that they do not get any of their ingredients from a local bakery. We saw their delivery of store bought croissants and vegetables. Doesn't look like anything is made here fresh by what we witnessed were delivered. Also they have a time limit for customers...each purchase allows 2 hours of seating. They WILL kick you out. Plus there are gnats flying around. I had to catch two while the employees are all hanging out behind the register not cleaning up the tables. Why do the customers have to clean the tables before seating? Lastly it looks like they are constantly changing their prices v their main menu prices are taped over. Definitely sus Cute looking place & vibes but there are plenty of local restaurants nearby. Just keep walking folks!

Place is medium sized with a good amount of seating that could manage well during busy hours, fortunately lunchtime isn't one of those hours so I had plenty of seating. I had something simple, Half Chicken with rice & beans as well as Dominican soda on the side. Can never go wrong with comfort food and it was certainly comfortable enough to eat. Service was pretty decent, operates similar to a Diner so the food was brought to me so I'll give credit to good service. For a relatively simple meal, the cost was $20. Technically for a place like this, that is a bit on a higher side but I'm used to spending $30 for lunch that isn't in a fast food joint so to me it was relatively affordable.

It's enough for two people and it was only $17.50. They have a refrigerator case with drinks like soda, water, or Snapple. The nice lady at the counter took our order and we picked a table. It was crowded and they were doing a good take out business. When the meal was ready, the lady behind the counter brought over the tray with the food. We got kale and broccoli as the two sides. The chicken was seasoned well. It was interesting to see they rubbed under the skin as well as on top. The skin was nice and crispy. The white meat part is a little dry. The dark meat was very good. The best were the two sides. It's hard to not overcook broccoli but it was still crunchy and well seasoned. The kale was also cooked the same way as the broccoli. It had a lot of flavor. After you finish you bring your tray up and they do the rest.

The Food The cooking…read morehere is the real thing -- not the flattened, one-note version of Indian food that so many places settle for, where everything arrives tasting vaguely of the same sauce. At Tikka n' Talk, the spicing has genuine architecture. Each dish has its own personality, its own balance, its own arc from first bite to last. You taste individual spices rather than a generic wall of heat, and there's a depth underneath that only comes from someone who actually knows what they're doing. The tikka is outstanding and lives up to the name -- properly charred at the edges, smoky from real high-heat cooking, and still tender inside. That combination is harder to pull off than it looks, and getting it right every time takes skill. The curries have body and complexity. Sauces that have clearly been built rather than assembled, with layers that reveal themselves as you eat. Nothing is greasy, nothing is heavy in the bad way, and nothing tastes like it came out of a can. The bread deserves its own mention. Fresh, blistered, warm -- the kind you keep tearing off pieces of long after you're full. The Room and the Service The name isn't accidental. This is a place designed for lingering, and the atmosphere delivers on it. Warm, comfortable, and genuinely welcoming without being fussy. It's the kind of room where conversation flows easily, where you settle in without noticing an hour has passed. The staff are a huge part of that. Warm, attentive without hovering, and clearly happy you came. They know the menu cold and will steer you well if you ask -- including on spice levels, which they'll actually calibrate to what you want rather than defaulting to whatever's easiest. That kind of care shows up everywhere in the experience. Food comes out hot, timed well, and exactly as ordered. Basic things, but plenty of places fail at them. The Bottom Line Tikka n' Talk is the rare restaurant that's excellent on every axis at once -- the cooking is skilled, the room is inviting, and the people running it obviously care. It's become a regular for us, and I recommend it without hesitation to anyone who asks where to eat. If you haven't been, go. Order more than you think you need. Stay a while -- the name is an instruction, and it's good advice. Highest possible recommendation.
