Was able to get a reservation sort of last minute for my birthday and I’m so glad I was able to! This was probably one of the best meals I’ve ever had. I love how everything is farm to table and the menu changes daily, such a fun twist. I got the bucatini with lobster and it was unreal, with such a generous portion of fresh lobster. Yes, it is a little pricey but it’s not overpriced for the quality of food & amount that you’re getting. My only slight complaint is that it was a little dark at night and my mom couldn’t see that well, but that didn’t take away from the amazing dining experience we had. I will definitely come back the next time I’m in Gloucester!

It’s a fancy new place, very expensive. The salad was good, but too pricey for what it was. The service was great, the view is nice, maybe even nicer at night. It is in a neighborhood though, so I cannot see anyone just discovering that place – it’s pretty out of the way. I didn’t know what half of the menu was, so definitely a gourmet-like place. The dessert menu looked good and they have a nice wine selection.

Snagged a reservation on opening day and was blown away! My mom and I were so impressed by the seafood centered plates, all very well portioned in my honest opinion. Two entrees & an app (and dessert!) was perfect for two. Crab bucatini had a ton of crab, not greasy at all. Halibut had an amazing parsnip purée that balanced the fish. Friendly service and location made it feel really special, away from the busy downtown areas. Do be aware that parking can get tricky; definitely carpool when you can. Since the menu changes frequently, just go knowing that there will be something you will LOVE on the Talise menu.

Awesome first visit to Talise! Definitely recommend a reservation or be aware there may be a wait list to sit at the bar. But trust me, the wait is worth it! Although it’s a smaller place, the ambience is on point. It felt very cozy and classy. Everyone we met was friendly and efficient. We loved that the menu was on the shorter side. Everything we ate was delicious and it’s clear a lot of consideration went into each dish, and everything we saw served to other people looked just as good. Everyone cleaned their plate! It was the perfect end to our day trip to the Gloucester area and we can’t wait to return in the future to try a different menu! Thanks Talise 🙂

We got the chance to eat at this exceptional restaurant last night. The view was incredible. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The menu reflects the location of their locally sourced food. We had a party of 10 and I got to try everyone’s different selection, every plate was delicious and had unique flavors. It was an incredible experience that my family will cherish forever.

What a beautiful setting right on the water. The menu changes everyday and the bar is first come first serve. The plates were comprised of fresh locally sourced ingredients from local farmers and suppliers. The sourdough bread is freshly baked on site and delicious. We enjoyed the peach, heirloom tomato and hand made burrata salad and the tuna ceviche. And the boneless ribeye with yukon gold potatoes with foie gras cabbage. The only thing missing was my fancy cocktails although there was an aperitif. I’ll definitely be back to sample other items on the menu!

My partner and I have eaten here twice – last summer and this summer. It is, by far, the best meal that I’ve had in the greater Boston area in recent years. Yes, it is pricey. But the quality and execution is exceptional – and I love the highly curated menu. The service is friendly without being familiar and professional without being unpretentious. The atmosphere (go at golden hour) is magical. Eating dinner at Talise is one of the few times (lately) that I have paid the bill without feeling like I have been ripped off. (Also: to the people who yelled at the waitress or came 20 minutes late and were mad that there was a time limit on their table – you should never eat out…)

Always delicious! Love that we are always surprised by the ever changing menu. I could make a meal out of the Sour Dough bread that comes right out of the oven. Talise is creative in using locally sourced foods and its an explosion of flavors every time!

The food is exceptional, farm to table and chef planned and executed, flavor was superb! Our waitress Susan was very attentive and nice. Desserts are delicious and well crafted. Price is according to the quality, but not overpriced. The venue is beautiful, right on the water overseeing the Annisquam little harbor. The experience was just overall divine!
