What People Are Saying About TASTE RESTAURANT

In Short – A wide range of internationally inspired gourmet samplers will make the ordering process a leisurely one at the elegant bistro. Peruse the menu with a glass of wine as you choose from eight categories of inventive tapas, including vegetables, beef, pork, poultry and seafood. Ordering two or three dishes per person to share with tablemates is the norm. Small portions allow room for divine desserts like the chocolate bread pudding or baked apples in puff pastry with vanilla sauce.

Taste... Tastless staff
by Severine Luther
We have eaten at Taste a few times over the past few years and were never really impressed. The food is basic, the service is slow and the wine pricing is a complete ripoff. To top that I had to deal with the rudest person last Saturday while attending the Jazz Festival. While trying to go to the Jazz Festival, we parked at Taste and my friend (who goes to Taste for lunch almost weekly with her office because of the location not the food...) went inside and asked if we could park in their back parking lot. We were told it was fine and we left for the festival. An hour after that, I went back to the car to pick up something for my 8 month old baby and a woman stormed out of Taste ordering me to leave. I told her I had previously gotten authorization to park and asked her to check. She refused to check and told me I was lying. She insisted on making a scene which made my poor son cry and ordered me to leave her (mostly empty) parking lot. I will never ever go back to this restaurant and will make sure everybody I know boycotts it too. Based on the other reviews on this site, most people agree anyway that their food and service are awful. I wonder how long they will stay in business with such an arrogant attitude and poor service.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Staff

Disappointed in food and service
by bustrorl
My family and I were completely disappointed in our food and lack of service last night at Taste. We have eaten at Taste a number of times over the past few years and find that the service and food quality are a little worse each time we have tryed eating at Taste. Last night was the worst dinning experience yet and the last time we will ever go to Taste. Our food came out of the kitchen one meal at a time over a period of 20 to 30 minutes. I would like to suggest to the owner of Taste, (who was present and in the kitchen), that it is totally improper to serve dinners one at a time to a family - party of five, especially over such a long period of time. The reasons are obvious... BAD FOOD COMBINED WITH BAD SERVICE = OUT OF BUSINESS. Good bye Taste.
- Pros: use to be great before new mgmt took over
- Cons: very slow service followed by bad food needs new mgmt

Great place to hang with friends
by mzpep1
The small portions are wonderful. If you are watching what you eat or just wanting to try a little bit of everything then this will be perfect for you and your friends. The drinks are off the chain, not over powering but just enough kick to let you know you are not drinking kool aid. I will be back soon.
- Pros: Great food & drinks
- Cons: Parking
