When you walk through the shadowed glass doors of Talulla's, an instant transformation begins to occur. Your mind and body begin to relax. Your ears pick up on the eclectic mix of music. Your eyes wonder around the walls, decorated in Turkish rugs; then the ceilings, scattered with warm, unique lighting pieces; then the floors... the dark, hardwood floors; and finally, across the plush seating areas, disguised by cushions and pillows and fabric leisurely draped around the frames.

I hope you enjoy a true Carolina experience here at Carolina Brewery and will look for our award winning beers on your travels throughout the Carolinas. Cheers, Robert PoitrasOwner/Founder

    Wonderful food and service. It’s a bit noisy, but still a nice atmosphere. Food from several traditions were offered - we ended up with Mexican, Thai, and Italian dishes. All great. Nice wine list, as well. Highly recommended.

    We really enjoyed the appetizers as well as the chicken curry. Chhole Bhature had top notch North Indian flavors. Breads were also mostly good. Chur chur naan was a bit dry and lassooni daal tadka was a bit lacklustre as it felt like refried beans with a garlic tempering vs a good tadka daal with a strong garlic profile. Chocolate lava cake was very good. Overall food was balanced on flavors and not greasy so that was really nice. Service was very attentive. We would visit again!
