    We really enjoyed our evening at Talia. The menu is limited but the food was excellent. Highest kudos to our wait staff: Andy was our lovely and very attentive server. He checked often to make sure everything was perfect, and didn't rush us in any way. Even if the food were only mediocre I would go back for the excellent and friendly service he provided. Jesus was also great, quick to clear dishes, fill our water glasses and bring a bit of sunshine to our table. My only criticism is the noise level. It gets very loud since there aren't any noise dampening features -- patrons voices reverberate throughout the restaurant making it difficult to engage in conversation with your dinner companion. Sitting outside looked more peaceful and we would have opted for that had it not been raining the night we were there.
