Really enjoyed my meal at Taste. The servers were brilliant, and our food as well. The Prix Fixe menu was 3 courses (including dessert) for $27 and was well worth the price. Started with the salad with raw shaved brussel sprouts and parmesan - awesome. Had a delicious Chicken Paillard. The Prix Fixe dessert portions are much smaller (understandably) than... More

Love this place. Our server, Nina, was the best. Great food. Reasonably priced. Plenty of street parking. Great staff. I can't wait to go again. Try the pizza and also the quinoa salad with chicken.

The ambiance here was great, food was amazing and the Pomegranate Basil Sangria was the best sangria we've ever had made with a sparkling wine and different fruit puree's and liqueur's! Definitely will return here on my next tip to Cali!

My girlfriend and i decided to do the Dine in LA menu last night. She had the brussel sprout salad which was just missing something. The Salmon was a... More

very friendly, extremely cosy terrace and some good proposals for lunch between the noble boutiques of the neighborhood. I decided for the toasted sandwiches with french cheese... you can choose the basic cheese you want and put some additional flavors on it, like mushrooms and dried tomatoes... i heard the french guests from the neighbor table being very happy about...

This was our 35th US restaurant dining experience this trip. Quite honestly, was most probably the best! Why? - Loved the 5pm $5 menu! So much choice and when dining with friends a great opportunity to mix, match and share. For a few $'s extra you can choose additional dishes to share. This is a neat place - looks like... More
