NYC Restaurant Review: Tillman’s

Only in New York City can you pay $14 for a single grilled cheese sandwich, but then at the same establishment hear an intimate concert with Talib Kweli for FREE. Such contradictions make up Tillman’s, where expensive comfort food is balanced out by the pricelessness of your experience. A hidden
