First off there is paid parking lot which is in the back as there is no parking in the front. So be sure to go there to park. Once you enter there head to front and check in at desk. Staff very friendly and there is seating up stairs and on main level. Ambiance is very quaint and inviting. There is a new chef who is working on building new menu, they had a new years menu that they are keeping what worked and they are taking suggestions. We ordered the frittes as a starter and the lobster and salmon as mains. Both very good portions are average size which is smaller than most American restaurants so I'd suggest a couple appetizers if you are really hungry. We tried 3 deserts the chai tea cake it had very good chai flavoring and lemon curd. The passionfruit trifle delicious my favorite. And the carrots cake, it was rich and full of flavor. Overall great dining experience, excited to see the menu the chef decides on.

We visited Tailleur for one of their high tea events before Christmas. No other way to describe it than it felt like we were temporarily transported from Kansas City to Europe for an exquisite afternoon high tea. From start to finish the experience was magical. The restaurant itself feels like a step back into vintage Europe and as we walked by the pastry counter it felt like being in a French patisserie with towering displays of macaroons and cakes. From vintage tea cups and pots to a tower of sweet and savory pastries and finger sandwiches to attentive waitstaff, they nailed every part of this experience and made it a truly decadent afternoon! The tea is a limited event they do every so often so you have to watch out for reservations. It is on the pricier side, but we felt the overall experience was so unique that it was worth it.

I loved everything about my meal and experience at Tailleur! The setting of the restaurant was so intriguing and the food excellent. I went with the scallops, served over grits and they were outstanding. Our waitress was attentive and provided some great recommendations. All 3 of us cleaned our plates!

Finally tried this spot and so glad we did! The fresh bread basket was delicious, the entrees were filling and tasty, and the desserts were fun and yum!! I got a gnocchi dish which was vegetarian so i just added chicken for protein! It was great, I had never had a gnocchi dish like it. The steak was good and came out cooked as ordered which is always key for my husband's approval. The desserts were unique and tasty!! We will be back for sure.

I had an amazing experience at Tailleur. I told the server that I am gluten free and he clarified whether or not it was celiac or an intolerance. I told him that I have celiac. He then went to the kitchen and brought back a handwritten list of everything on the menu that I could eat. Here is the list: Green Salad Granny Smith Apple and Turnip Parsnip Soup Black Peppered Butter Beans Ora King Salmon Scallops I had the Black Peppered Butter Beans and they were delicious! For dessert they had a flourless brownie that was also really good. In addition to the incredible food, the restaurant has great vibes and a nice patio in the back. I would highly recommended this restaurant and I will definitely be back.

New chef, same great experience. Our second time here, I was excited to celebrate our anniversary here as our first time dining here was unforgettable. As we were getting checked in, the host was transparent about their new chef and menu, but I wasn't phased. To drink, I really loved their old fashioned. Very well done. To start, we had the focaccia bread which was delicious. For my entree, I had the scallops. I've only had scallops once before, so I'm no expert, but I don't think I could have enjoyed it more. The texture of the scallops was great and the way it paired with the flavors of the brussel sprouts, bacon, and grits was truly fantastic. On top of the outstanding food, I'm a fan of the atmosphere as well. They have their own unique style in cultivating a classy atmosphere and have the nice options of patio as well as upstairs and downstairs seating. I like their intimate tables for 2-4 but I would say they could accommodate your party of 8-10 if that's what you're looking for (I would say you need to make a reservation for that though).

Stopped in for dinner at Tailleur and it did not disappoint. Really cute space that has a French bistro vibe, and very cozy! They have a nice selection of house cocktails as well as excellent wine list to choose from. For food, we started with the heirloom tomato tart. It was ok, slightly burnt and bitter, but there is potential there. Couldn't pass up the bread basket, and neither should you! Made in house too. For our mains we had the chicken cordon bleu as well as scallops with risotto! Both very delicious. Final review: 4/5, pretty decent food and would come back. Will be back for their afternoon tea for sure .
