Came here for restaurant week. Their bread was fluffy on the inside and crusty on the outside. The accompanying butter was amazingly creamy. Got the gooey dark chocolate bread pudding for dessert. Yum
Chef Telepan transforms his local, sustainable ingredients into some of the best and most elegantly plated food in town. We love the creamy homemade burrata and the piping hot lobster Bolognese! Mmm.
Chef Bill Telepan has a gift for cooking greenmarket vegetables, but his menu also includes a few great splurge dishes like the lobster bolognese and the grass-fed ribeye for two. [Eater 38 Member]
Bacon Cheeseburger, $28 prix-fixe lunch or $32 prix-fixe brunch only The Cheddar is Cabot, the bacon is Nueske’s, the brioche bun is housemade, and the beef comes from a family-run Missouri farm.
For a fancy burger, with excellent fries and onion rings. Brunch is delicious with the menu including a dressed-up patty melt. Great for a special occasion, but doesn't have to cost a fortune. En savoir plus
Enjoy the ambiance of Thanksgiving in the country w/out having to leave Manhattan, farm-to-table 3 course menu items include heritage pork w lentils & fingerling potatoes & all the traditional fixings
Come to Bill Telepan's flagship restaurant for the best in locally-sourced, organic ingredients. The Burrata Mezzaluna and Shrimp Fried Rice are excellent starters.
Grub Street off-menu dish: Personal Pizzas. "Bar diners can get individual pizzas if they ask. Toppings change but expect things like veal Parmesan w ricotta; or a cheddar, spinach, & bacon option."
We loved the quiet and mature ambiance that gives off a feel of a country-side establishment as if you were upstate. The lobster Bolognese was perfect, and the tomato sauce it was in was wonderful
The "seasonal vegetable" dish is one of many market-based offered at greenmarketeer Bill Telepan's Upper West Side restaurant. Not uptown? Be sure to check out the downtown outpost, Telepan Local.
The most value is in the $32 three course lunch menu here, don't miss out on it! We recommend the pan-roasted trout or the burger for the main course and gianduja for dessert.
Named after the owner and executive chef, Telepan is a culinary adventure. Order the Fois Gras, Poached Egg Open Ravioli, and the Ribeye. Finish everything off with the Strawberry Parfait.
I think the menu is reminiscent of a great neighborhood restaurant with a fine dining touch. Bill has simplified many great dishes and puts his own twist in them. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
Very inventive cuisine if you are in the mood for something a little fancier and more nuanced than you typical upper west side restaurant. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) En savoir plus
Vegetarians should eat here every night, though housemade sausage is fab! photos: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150151368969190&set=a.10150151367089190.297499.765634189&type=1&theater
Opt for the Four-course tasting menu with wine pairing ($125/person) for something special or try their made to order Harvest Sunset Sangria En savoir plus
Hit or miss with the appetizers & pasta. Inconsistent service. The sausage appetizer & pea pancakes (pasta course) were good. Sticking to just an entree is the best bet. The trout and pork were wins.
To convey a sense of bucolic earthiness, his restaurant's menu is patterned with oak leaves, and the walls of the rooms are colored in a soothing, mossy green.
Always my favorite menu for restaurant week - full run of the regular (& award-winning) menu, just smaller portions: smoked brook trout, deconstructed eggplant parm, four-pork medley...

Was there new years eve 2014. Big disappointment from a michelin starred restaurant. The lamb was almost uneatable and the soup had no taste. Our waiter was attentive but offered almost rude service.
Situated on a leafy block just steps from Central Park, Telepan welcomes food lovers and fine dining enthusiasts, as well as a pre- and post-theater crowd, to enjoy bold New American cuisine in a sophisticated yet relaxed setting.
