Update from 3 stars to 5. The pasta selections are delicious and crave worthy! I am happy I tried this spot again and it exceeded my expectations. The pasta bolognese was rich and flavorful. Highly recommend to satisfy a pasta craving. My second choice would be the gnocchi pasta which is just as good in my opinion. This was my first time ordering from Taller Cocina. The reviews and photos looked promising. I ordered the Meat Lover pizza. The presentation looked decent upon arrival with a nice amount of toppings and sauce. However, the pizza was very cold. This was disappointing since the restaurant isn't located far from my house (less than 10 minutes.) and I expected a hot & fresh order. I am not sure how the food could have arrived this way. The driver had the food transported in an insulated delivery bag. The sauce was cold as if it had been refrigerated and there was no warmth left in the crust or toppings. The cheese was cold to the point it had already congealed. This made me question if this pizza had even been made fresh to order. I will say that despite the pizza being cold it had good flavor. The price and portion were also fair. I would try again to see if the quality is improved. If my experience is better I will update the review.

Great place. Good music. Always crowded. Had a great food. Brunch with family was fun. Sangria was loaded. Be careful. It kicks. Steak and eggs with garlic sause was very good. Will go to again for sure. Almost fogot, try appetiser. Chicken wings with mustarf sause are good.

Great food, nice staff? Good music! Loved the grilled octopus and the calamari with sesame seeds. So in love with the stuffed chicken and the great staff, nice and friendly. Exquisite pizettas for the kids.

The music, the food and the ambiance are a great mix. Its a favorite of mine. The live performances is what keeps me coming. Nothing better than listening to good music while eating good food and having a drink with friends, family or your significant other.

They always have a nice band playing; and they have such an interesting and unique atmosphere. The esthetic and design of the dining room is very modern and colorful. There's even beautiful bathroom decor including lit candles and wooden walls
