This restaurant is owned by a great man who treats all of his employees with dignity and respect. If you look at the one star ratings you will see someone named Madison who left a review mentioning a woman named Michelle, playing as if she was an innocent victim. I would like to clear that up, Michelle along with other employees were caught on surveillance stealing money and that’s why she was fired. Medhi is a great boss, and anyone else who works there and respects just basic decency will have no problems with him. All he expects is for his employees to work hard, be honest, and respect one another.
You can't beat this place if you are a Mike Talanyna (Wash Univ) fan. He passed on a while back but the owners bought the name and recipes. Healthy portions and the world-famous salad still there.
Delicious! Great experience for takeout. We had the pasta with meatballs and side salads. Everything was so good, better than expected. Great customer service, too.
We visited Talayna's on a Sunday afternoon/early evening.
We started with drinks. The lemonade was fantastic! The beer was cold, served in a frosted glass.
They brought out the bread which was crusty and very dense served with good old fashioned butter. Great extra treat. I'm a big fan of free food before the real good.
The appetizer we chose to get is started was the Jumbo Toasted Ravioli. Fantastic! I loved the sauce but it could have been meaty.
We ordered a house salad to split between the four of us (and we had some left). Roped provel cheese. Homemade croutons! Double thumbs up. And then came the pizza...
We order a kids pizza and the pizza was PLENTY BIG for a kiddo. The big 16" large we chose was the New York Style with half Deluxe plus bacon and half meat. The pizza was wonderful, plenty left over at all. All in all the services what made it worthy in the five star rating. They were attentive, friendly and accommodating.
I was in the area for a doctor's appointment, and I asked a local for recommendations to eat and he told asked if I liked Italian. I wasn't in the mood for Italian, but his and 2 others comments saying I won't be disappointed convinced me. Let me just say the food was phenomenal! I even ordered some food to go as well for my 3.5 hour trip home. You won't be disappointed in this place.
Being a new yorker in St Louis, good pizza can be an issue. Talayna's delivers with their new york style pies. Their large pie is just slightly smaller from the pies is get in new york, but taste great and have an authentic crust. One of only a few good pizza places we've found in St. Louis!
One of my favorite places to eat! I have been coming for years. Great socially distanced patio seating available which I greatly appreciate. Service and food was immaculate. If you want a great variety of pizzas to choose from and it be be delicious come here.
