The Tulip and the Rose Cafe

This place will be on top of my list for Best restaurants in US. Taste is authentic and fresh aromatic food.

They have limited menu for Friday night dinners.

It is definitely a place that deserves more than 5 stars with its peaceful atmosphere, delicious food that has never been tried before, very helpful and friendly staff. 3 hour drive but definitely worth it for me

Loved the service here. Multiple cuisines. Very friendly staff.
We took an hour long detour just to visit this spot, but we were running late and requested the staff to keep it open after closing hours. They honored our request with a smile.
Would love to visit again. Keep up the good work. We need more places like this.

One of the best meal experiences we had. We saw a documentary about the restaurant on YouTube and came to try their Turkish menu. It was a really long drive but worth it. Restaurant has great ambiance. We set outside and it is surrounded by greenery and a beautiful big tree. All other people eating their were looking peaceful and happy. I guess Sufis have that impact on the surroundings. Prices are very reasonable knowing that meal is peppered by some great group of mystics. How can you beat that?. Just the peace and quite was worth spending time and the drive all the way to Franklin, a town I didn’t know existed if it wasn’t for these mystics/Sufis.

Delicious food! Went with my mom, the workers were super attentive, and nice, and the food was amazing. Very nice atmosphere too, and a diverse menu.

Food was delicious, service was excellent, cafe was gorgeous. my only feedback is that we did wait a long time for our food, but it ended up being well worth the wait. definitely will be returning.

Absolutely incredible dinner at The Tulip and The Rose with their 5th anniversary Tapas menu.

The Soto Sayur was an exellent soup to start things off. Light with an excellent usage of spices.

The Honey Zatar Duck Drumettes were extremely crispy and had a great zatar flavor with a hint of honey and flaked sea salt. They were moist inside and perfectly cooked.

Next up was Mousakka make with local produce. They eggplant was cooked perfectly and the tomatoes were nice and sweet. It made it refreshing in this warm weather.

Last but not least were the Kari Ayam Tacos with lime crema. A distinct middle eastern/Mediterranean spice flair highlights the tacos. The chicken was excellent with some pickeled onions and the cream to finish off the filling. All put inside a home made tortilla made this something I could have more and more of.

I finished the meal with an extra chocolatey bundt cake. This was sweet but not too heavy and really completed the dinner.

All in all this was well worth the trip to Franklin, NY. I can see why it is called one of the best restaurants in the Catskills. With a weekly rotating menu highlighting many parts of the world and various flavor profiles it really is a gem. I definitely recommend stopping in or making the trip to just go to dinner.

The food here is fancy and delicious. Very well seasoned , pleasing to the eyes, pretty on the plate and above all, the food is made with care and love. This cake😍

Always delicious! I get very excited to eat here when visiting and it’s always even tastier than I remember! And I love that the menu changes. Wished it was in my town :)

I had an amazing time here. Had the Turkish coffee (was very good), the hummus paté (also very good) and the eggs benedict with sujuk (amazing). They also sliced the eggs benedict in 4, such a nice simple touch and makes it more enjoyable to eat. The people working were very nice. I live about 3 hours away but seriously I will be back here!

Shame they don't have wine service. If they did this place would be listed among the best restaurants in the nation (in my opinion😀).

The most delicious, flavorful, beautifully served food I've ever tried. I compare it to many countries I've lived in and travel to.

How many restaurants have a different menu every week or so?... omelette with homemade sujuk (meat sausage), baklava tasted like homemade too with good quality ingredients. Corned beef was exceptional. The serving size is pretty big too. We will be back!

Wow, Javanese was amazing! Manti was delicious. Service was great, welcoming, and very helpful.

Great little restaurant in the middle of nowhere.. top notch food . Eclectic and fun and locally sourced . Can't wait to go again

We went in for Saturday family brunch. The French toast was the best we've had! Korean chicken sandwich is a must try!!! Don't miss Javanese noodles with sujuck. Overall, the place is a gem in upstate NY. Service was quick and on point.
We will be coming here again to try different menus. I highly recommend this place! 5 plus stars!

Adorable restaurant with a delicious beverage selection and tasty menu. Worth the drive!

The Korean Chicken Sandwich is a must have, also the Falafel wrap was outstanding. Great vibes here, wait time was a little long but they were understandably busy. Definitely would go back!

I stopped by for a quick bite, and boy, was I glad I did! The food was absolutely delicious, and you could taste the freshness and quality of the ingredients used. Each dish was cooked to perfection, and the flavors were well-balanced. I particularly loved the Manti and chicken souvlaki, and the Balik Ekmek was great too - it was bursting with flavor and had me wanting more. No cap, Michelin should come and rate this place. Hidden gem. I will be back for more.

Phenomenal food, a real hidden gem. I've been twice and can't recommend it enough. Try the Javanese noodles, they're so good!

Sweet cafe in wonderful magical Franklin. French Turkish fusion menu that is all very fresh and tasty. Desserts to die for. Lemon grass chicken was amazing. The brunch items we saw come out were huge and looked incredible. Staff is super friendly. Must visit again passing thru to Oneonta or Cooperstown.
