Kool Beanz is one of the top restaurants in Tallahassee and probably my favorite.
They describe their food as Modern American Cuisine. You can get fantastic fresh seafood, amazing fried chicken or flank steak. All their dishes are prepared with thought, care and deliver fantastic flavor.
We went last night and after our dinner Jessi wrote:
KOOL BEANZ!! So hard to pick what my favorite thing last night was! Top 3: Local Clams in an amazing Thai style sauce (did everything I could not to lick the bowl clean). Perfectly Spicy Crab Cakes over a really delightful herbed aioli. My Pan Seared Trout over Creamed Spinach with a lemon herb butter. They make their own butter and serve it at ROOM TEMPERATURE (the way it’s supposed to be), everything is cooked to perfection. Their wine is fabulous… you just gotta go.
The decor is modern, kitchen is open and the walls are covered with local art that is for sale…
We like sitting at the bar overlooking the kitchen. Its live Food Network! They have also added great outdoor seating.
The Menu changes daily depending on the season… Here are a few of our recent plates.
GO… You will not be disappointed!

Business casual – $15 – $25

The phone pix make me crazy! They just don’t do the food or atmosphere any justice. Also, Barry, the attire is Casual-Business casual but the cost is a little steeper than 15-25. For lunch, that’s right, for dinner, with wine and an appetizer, we’re talking closer to $25-45. And this is not the place you go and skimp on your order. This is the kind of place you go all out for. A bottle of wine, a coupla apps, the entree of your choice and dessert… which you won’t have room for but should get anyway because they’re too good to pass up.
This is a “go to splurge” kind of place.
Unless you go for lunch, that’s a great way to eat there for less.
The whole Kool Beanz experience is completely satisfying!!
$15 – $25 is per plate cost… Your right the total cost is more. And Phone Photos are better than no photo 😉
Kool Beanz is Julie and I’s favorite place in town, it’s our go-to date night and special occasion dinner spot.
We also love sitting at the bar, sometimes you can get some free samples!
Jessi is correct on her assessment of the cost and all out status. This place rocks and is one of my favorites period! This is not a cheap date place.
