My wife and I were at Table 23 the evening of August 1, 2026. We were seated at a reserved table right by the service door which I really hate. I tried to get another table but was told other tables were already reserved. So we decided to stop complaining to ourselves and just go with it. That was the ONLY major negative experience at Table 23. Other smaller negatives were ice water from the machine that tasted like the plastic devices it came out of. We requested tap water and it was promptly served and solved that problem. Our waiter did a fabulous job and he was always moving fast to his tables. Sometimes though it took him a while to attend to our needs but that really wasn't his fault. That waiter was A+. I think the restaurant needs another waiter to spread the workload a bit. My wife ordered a Bees Knees drink and it was delicious, almost like a dessert. I drank my usual beer. We ordered Okra and Gorgonzola chips which were quite interesting. For our entrees, my wife ordered the flounder and I ordered redfish. Both dishes were beautiful in presentation but even mores in taste. The flounder came with a sauce that had lemon in it and it was 100% delicious, as was the flounder. My redfish came sitting in the middle of a generous serving of fabulous, delicious creamy grits. After my first bite of that fish and those grits, I knew I had hit a jackpot and thanked my good fortune in ordering it. And for a dessert we choose a shared flourless chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream. visually it was just beautiful and the richness of chocolate and flavor was absolutely out of this world. We are looking forward to our next visit to Table 23 and it will be tempting to order the same things but the menu has many wonderful choices. What a fantastic delimma. read more

Table 23 - Flourless Chocolate Brownie with Vanniall Ice Cream. - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

We visited table 23 on a Sunday morning for some brunch, and I was very happy with it. They were pretty busy, but they had space for the 2 of us as a walk in and seated us immediately. We sat on the outdoor patio which was very nice. I got the biscuits and gravy with bacon and it was perfectly done. My boyfriend got the steak and eggs, which was overdone on the first try, but they brought out another one in about 15 minutes which was correctly cooked. I'd definitely go back here. I'd definitely recommend their Sunday brunch. Their dinner menu looks exciting as well and I'll definitely try it when I'm back in town! read more

Table 23 - Bruce biscuits and gravy with bacon - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

The experience was overall mildly disappointing in light of the menu prices and ambience. The restaurant is beautifully decorated inside and out, and offers fast and free valet parking. The letdown started with the menu being significantly different from what was on the website. Some of the items we were planning to order were not available. The ingredients tasted high quality, but everything I tasted was poorly seasoned (save the Cajun boiled peanuts). Service was appropriate and respectful of not interrupting conversation between guests. While the sizes and price were not quite proportionate, my major issue was the out of date menu on the website; please make sure to check out menu pictures more recently posted. read more

I've been to Table 23 quite a few times for happy hour and brunch and have never been impressed. I realize now that I was ordering the wrong thing. Had an early dinner with a friend. We started with the pecan crusted okra. Delicious, especially with the green goddess dip (always a favorite flavor of mine). We made our dinner choices but were convinced inside to order the special of the evening, the cedar plank roasted salmon with homemade chorizo, broccolini and mashed potatoes. Everything was excellent! The salmon was especially flavorful and tender! Even though I was full, my friend and I split a slice of key lime pie that was light abnot overly rich or sweet. A great finish to the meal. read more

Had another great experience at Table 23 this weekend. Table of 4 at a high boy table. Our server was Grace ( she was terrific) who was also tending bar. Ordered fried pickles coconut shrimp and southwestern egg rolls for apps. Main courses included Salmon with asparagus Caesar salads with grilled chicken and my favorite blackened red fish with cheesy grits. ( TY Grace for the recommendation. ). Desserts were key lime pie and cookie and ice cream. Great service. Great atmosphere. Heat lamps kept the chill away. Thank you. read more

My husband and I went for Valentine's Day and it was ok. We made a reservation, and they sat us upstairs in the room they usually reserve for private events which felt a little awkward. Our favorite thing of the night was the Pimento Cheese and Gauc appetizer. Both of our entrees were mediocre at best, my salmon was very bland and my husband's pork chop was overcooked and lackluster. Our server was fine, no issues but didn't stand out in any way either. Overall, a very disappointing experience for an almost $100 meal. We will most likely not return. read more

Went here for Valentine's Day dinner, and truthfully was not impressed. Food was alright, it wasn't bad by any means but it was nothing great. I got the pork and it was a bit dry. Shake the table while cutting it kind of dry. Service was ok, again nothing awful or bad but not much interaction. We were sat upstairs where I assume they usually use for events so that might have impacted the ambiance. The best way I could the describe the experience was ok. It was a restaurant read more

Table 23 - 3 Three Little Pigs - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Table 23 never misses. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming without feeling stuffy, making it perfect for everything from a casual dinner to a special night out. The food is consistently on point--well-executed, flavorful, and clearly made with care. You can tell there's real attention to detail coming out of the kitchen. The drink menu is just as solid, with great cocktails and options that pair perfectly with the food. Service is another standout: friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. Add in a fantastic location that's easy to get to, and Table 23 checks all the boxes. This is one of those places you can confidently recommend--and keep coming back to. read more

Did a solo dinner here last night and overall found it just ok. The spot has a nice ambiance - very chill. But as others have mentioned, every dish is excessively salty and nothing stood out. I got fried pickles, the southern plate with fried catfish , and a key lime pie. The fried pickles were good and had a generous serving but the catfish was just way too salty. read more

Great food and ambiance! Excellent service from Jake, and drinks were worth the money..

Lovely atmosphere and service. I had the wedge salad with salmon and was not disappointed. Great place for fancy dinner night or a casual lunch read more

My husband and I came here for a quick date night. It was a Saturday, so we expected it to be somewhat busy, but we found the place nearly empty. We found two seats at the bar and really enjoyed that they were seemingly able to open it up and make it more of an outdoor space when they choose. While the appetizers were great, we did not order dinner. I found it odd that there were not that many people there, but maybe it was because there was an FSU game going on? We will definitely be back for happy hour and appetizers, but the food looked a little pricey, and not something that we would generally like. The service was iffy. The bartenders seemed apathetic and could use a couple smiles. read more

We chose Table 23 over Chuck's Fish house thinking there would be more on the menu for my picky brother to eat. I made the reservation for inside and they tried to seat us outside. Also, I made it for 5:00 and was told we would have to finish by 6:30. We were seated inside and promptly greeted by our waiter. We both ordered the Gulf grouper topped with shrimp and crab over creamed corn. The chef's veggie was succotash. I asked them to make my brother's food so that it wasn't stacked or touching. (Some people don't like their food mixed). His came out in separate bowls. The grouper was "fishy" tasting and the shrimp and crab topping with the lemon butter sauce was just OK. I ordered a side of macaroni and cheese which was the best thing we ate that night! The ambience inside was nice but the acoustics did not buffer a group of happy partiers at the table behind us. It is already on my calendar to come back for a party in a couple of weeks and I won't order the grouper again. I got sick from the leftovers the very next day. I really wanted to enjoy this meal but the freshness of the fish, the topping and the succotash was not a success. I will add, it was the weekend the students returned to school. I'll write another review in a couple of weeks. read more

Don't come here for brunch unless you're looking to waste your money. The restaurant looks nice overall, but we were seated in a pretty crappy spot, and the heaters did not help warm up the table. I ordered their peach 'Southern Bellini' mimosa but was very disappointed at the laziness of just adding fruit cup peaches to some champagne. The apple butter biscuits were disappointing visually and very dry. The eggs benedict was just a poached egg on a biscuit with a sprinkled of parsley. I ordered a side of the hash for my french toast, which was well-made and visually pleasing, but was let down by the potatoes' small portion size and lack of seasoning present. Our chicken and waffles looked underdone and unappetizing overall. Unsure if this experience was unique to our table, but we are certainly not returning. read more

Table 23 was an unexpected restaurant experience that offers up cuisine that presents and tastes like a fine dining establishment with the ambiance and feel of a laid-back bar. My family had a reservation for 6pm. While we sat and waited, people arrived after us without a reservation and were sat immediately inside. When I called the day before, I was told there was only 1 table available outside on the patio. The entire evening, there were multiple tables outside that were empty. This restaurant advertises sophisticated southern food. Which they did have, kind of. We scoped out the menu ahead of time and were really interested in their handhelds. However, this evening, they decided not to offer their more affordable menu options since it was a grad weekend in Tallahassee. Not sure on the logic there except to limit people to only pricier plates. We were disappointed and had to reevaluate the menu. We started with an appetizer of fried pickles. Crunchy, tangy and hit the spot. This was the most southern dish of the night for us. For dinner, I went with the hand cut filet for $49. My wife got a chicken dish and both my parents got the Gulf Grouper dish. My dad and I also ordered $11 4 Roses pours on the rocks. The 4 Roses pours were not done by someone that knows how to pour drinks. They dumped half a glass of crushed ice into the whiskey. It made it extremely watered down and they charged us $15.50 a piece! The food was excellent. My steak was buttery soft. Cooked as ordered, medium-rare, plated beautifully with 4 asparagus spears and a small pile of potatoes. My wife's chicken was also good, a grilled fillet with citrus and sweet potatoes. My parents enjoyed their grouper which also had a nice presentation. A decent sized piece of fish topped with shrimp and crab that my dad said didn't stand-out. He did however, mention the corn salad on the side. It was tasty. With a small identity crisis on their hands, Table 23 is a bar and relaxed place to eat, serves small portions at high prices that you'd expect at a high-end restaurant but still provides the service and ambiance of a place that should charge half the price. Our $200 bill for 4 people seemed steep for what we got. If I ever consider dining here again, I'd call first to ensure they are offering their full menu. (That wasn't mentioned when I made my reservation.) read more

Was looking for a place with a bar & good food and voila!! This place was great!! The food, the drinks and the friendly service! I could have order the whole menu, but went with the fried green tomatoes and the turkey sandwich! Blake was a great server / bartender!!! Highly recommend this place next time you are in Tally!! read more

Table 23 - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

What an amazing experience and worth the 45 minute wait. (Make your reservation earlier in the week) it was no wonder that every table was full. The hostess handled us so sweetly and professionally during our wait. Then when we finally got seated our server Perkins greeted us immediately with a sincere smile, apology for the long wait and a plate of warm bread. We immediately ordered the pimento cheese and guacamole appetizer and drinks. Wow! The pimento cheese dip was pure perfection and my margarita was perfect. Dinner exceeded our expectations, the sirloin steak was served with a savory dipping sauce and sliced potatoes. My Shrimp and Grits was filled with jumbo shrimp sautéed to perfection with tail completely removed and a savory sauce around the grits that made every bite an explosion of flavor. Everything was excellent including our server Perkins. Although I was visiting my daughter at FSU, the next time we're in town we're already talking about making reservations and going back. read more

Table 23 - Shrimp n Grits - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Service was average. The whole restaurant is really charming. The food, biscuits were a bit dry and not enough apple butter, I will recommend a bigger serving dish or a couple more ramekins of the butter. Sticky buns were great, crab cakes, the cake was 90% bread and the rest the mix and shredded crab. Need it seasoning as well. Chicken and waffles do not come even close to the picture on google, and the taste was ok. The filet great idea, I will try to figure out how not to overcook the steak but overall very good. Shrimp and grits, Oh! This is where it's at, that was full of flavors. This is why they got a 4, I do think you have to try this place a few times, the kitchen had a rush just at opening time, it's hard to make perfection when you're that busy. read more

We had a family event here for brunch. It was not as good as I remembered it being. I had chicken and waffles. There was nothing special about it - at all. Average .... We ordered biscuits but they were special at best, as well. There is nothing that was memorable at this meal. I can pass on brunch in the future. read more

The service, the food, the drinks and the atmosphere are nothing special and overpriced. I can make a better meal at home sadly because when we dine out we want a chef that cares to serve their customers something divine. With a valet type service you would think the meal would fair better than Olive Garden. However, I would say comparable lol. read more

The food was fantastic, the drinks were incredible, and the restaurant itself is gorgeous. The lights on the trees outside created a magical atmosphere. I had the southern tea cocktail, which was refreshing and exactly what I needed. I ordered the herb crusted chicken for dinner, and it came with rice pilaf, bacon Brussel sprouts, and honey mustard sauce. The grilled pineapple on top of the chicken was the perfect sweet addition to this savory dish. I was here with a large group, and the service was fantastic. Our waiter was patient and attentive and made sure our glasses were full. We ordered a ton of the appetizers, and they were all funky southern twists. So good! read more

On the day I visited, service was slow but worth the wait. read more

Table 23 - Guacamole Toast - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Really cute spot for brunch in Tallahassee. We didn't have a reservation but went when they first opened so were seated quickly. There are beautiful chandeliers hanging over the bar. There is complimentary valet parking but the lot fills up very quickly so you want to get there early. We started with the pecan & bourbon soaked raisin sticky buns. It came with 3 on the dish for a great price. These were bigger than we anticipated and were quite filling. I had the crab cake Benedict which was delicious. It was served on a biscuit and with a side of home fries. My friend was able to sub the truffle tots for one of her sides so we were able to try them abs they were worth it! The server was super polite and we were waited on quickly. Overall great experience. read more

Table 23 - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

It was worth the wait and lived up to its hype. We've only lived here 7 months and this restaurant has been on our radar. Honestly we've been quite disappointment in most restaurants we have given a chance here in Tally. While approaching the entrance, which was cascaded by beautiful fig trees, my husband looked at me and chanted, "please be good, please be good." We sat on the patio which was beautiful, I didn't see anything that led me to believe any of the seating wouldn't be stunning. Our waitress was kind, soft spoken and attentive. My husband ordered the special, which was displayed on the table, Spinach blend covered Red Snapper over a bed of mashed potatoes with chefs veggies (squash & zucchini). I ordered the shrimp and crab topped grouper dish. It was served over a corn medley with the chefs veggies. Both were served with a butter based cream sauce which was an added delight. This girl loves all the sauces. He had a maple pecan old fashion and I had a spicy pineapple margarita. Both drinks were tasty, his was super smooth. We ended the evening with the bread pudding. Can I just say we are very skeptical when ordering bread pudding because we have a favorite at a restaurant in Mobile and most don't compare but let me just say, although this BP was so different from our favorite it was delectable. Overall our experience was impressive and we will be revisiting T23. read more

Great ambiance and food. Best of both worlds: calm = inside seating or party mode = outside seating. The fried pickles and wings were delicious. Shrimp And grits was straight outta Louisiana.

Table 23 - Outside bar - New American Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Stopped here for dinner after seeing the great Yelp reviews. However, my experience wasn't so good and I suspect this place is very overrated. Nearly everything we ordered was completely unimpressive and overpriced. We're used to paying more for food in the Palm Beaches and this food didn't stack up. The deviled eggs were puny and totally boring. The hummus was "rustic" and bland. Not sure if that's the normal consistency, but it was nearly chunky. I'm addition, the carrot sticks weren't well cut - some still had unpeeled bits/ends and some were practically slivers which were large enough to dip. The entrees were not much better. Brisket tacos seemed expensive for two small, sloppy servings that dripped all over the placed. The trout was fine, but they served it with were clearly canned green beans. For real - $30 fish entree that they can't make with fresh beans and instead insult you with off-color, mushy, gross canned green beans as the accompaniment. Worse yet perhaps, is that we waited nearly 20 minutes for a sticky and wet high top table next to the bar. That was first available seating and I probably would have dined elsewhere had I know that was what I was airing for. On the other hand, our server Hunter, was very friendly and efficient. Zero complaints about his service. read more

Good American food. This is my husband's favorite restaurant in Tallahassee. It is nice to have the outdoor dining experience.
