Loved every moment we spent at Telva. We went on Saturday around 1pm and our food was served within 15 minutes of ordering. We indulged in the breakfast pide, avocado toast, cilbir (turkish eggs) and the portokalopita. All the bites were so inventive and packed with flavor, but our personal favorite was the avocado toast. The ambiance is beautiful and we believe Telva is one of the best brunch spots in STL!

Some of the most unique breakfast items on offer in the area. Had brunch here and will definitely be coming back. Do not skip the Balkan Coffee. Such a delicious treat and the savory yogurt and eggs was to die for. Amazing location too!

A delicious, enriching global experience tucked into a beautiful building in Webster Grove. Their baked goods are amazing and the Bosnian coffee was super cool. There's a whole ritual to drinking it that involves sugar cubes and Turkish delight. They give you printed instructions so you can enjoy it to the fullest. The breakfast pide with an over easy egg and middle eastern meat stuffing is super flavorful and filling. The next-level avocado toast was loaded w cucumbers, fire roasted tomatoes, Kalamata olives, feta, a whole avocado, topped with an over easy egg over Union Loafers sourdough. The ingredients are very fresh and locally sourced, including the eggs from Buttonwood Farms. Everything was topped with fresh herbs that added depth to the flavors. I cannot wait to dine here again!

Telva at The Ridge, St. Louis has a lovely rustic feel and a cozy atmosphere. The menu is limited, but they offer a wide selection of drinks, including coffee and lattes. We ordered the Turkish eggs, which were yummy, and the hummus toast, which was delicious in flavor—though the hummus was cold, which we didn’t love. The hot chocolate was very thick; my cousin expected it to be more drinkable and didn’t enjoy it, apparently its one of their famous items. The only negative was the 30-minute wait time, which wasn’t ideal. Other than that, everything was good.

I cannot say enough good things about Telva at The Ridge. This place is in my top 3 brunch spots and it's not #2 or #3, ya heard?!?!! Everything on the menu is incredible, no skips! The setting is rustic, communal, and welcoming. The coffee menu is an opportunity to try the best lavender latte you will ever have and the baklava yogurt dish will become your absolute best friend! An excellent place to bring out of town guests to show off the underestimated St. Louis food scene with a spectacular brunch prepared by a group of even more spectacular people!
