overpriced, good food but not great. After reading the review in the paper I thought the food would be much better. We had the tuna melt an dit was good, but not exceptional. The flatbread with onion lacked flavor. We had a raddichio salad that was bitter and overpriced. Since we were still hungry we ordered the scallop dish - two small overcooked scallops for $13 - I was not impressed. We were still hungry so finally asked for the bread dish which every table but ours had received. The beer was quite tasty and a good deal during happy hour at $3. Maybe would go back for happy hour, but otherwise would try something else.

The art isn't just in the museum!. The art is in the food, drink and decor! Let's start with everything visual. The lack of color is actually quite inviting. From the modern disco ball-esque light fixtures to the warm wooden tables and chairs to the wall of wine your eyeballs with be filled with modern delight. The plates are great to order family style as the portions are not huge but almost perfect as to not make you uncomfortble after your meal if you eat it all. My favorite part of TASTE is the Sunday brunch! Typically the boyfriend and I like to post up at the bar and sketch and knit. The bartenders (Tiffany rules!) keep our livers happy and we typically just order sides. 60% of the menu is made with ingrediants from the PNW which is another reason to like this place. Both bartenders are very friendly and have a fabulous knowledge of mixology. And this brings me to my last point. TASTE offers the BEST bloody mary. Fire Roasted Mary. Order it. You will not regret it!

Dismissive Staff, Not Worth Long Wait. My 13-year-old daughter and I ordered the noodles with cheese and the mini burger. 45 minutes later the couple who arrived after us were served an order they had changed twice. When I got my 2-inch burger I realized "mini" stood for "miniscule." I asked for ketchup and the waitress laughed and went to take the order of a table of 6 other patrons. The fries were soggy anyway, and noodles and cheese were DRIPPING in a good quarter cup of grease. We left frustrated, dismissed, and still hungry.

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!! Pathetically small portions.... We went to Taste to celebrate Valentine's Day. What a joke. The food was less than stellar...way to little for your buck. The portions were laughable. We were ignored by our waiter the entire evening and were never once asked how the meal was or how we were doing. We did not get the paired wine tasting with our meal which seemed to be the only way the restaurant staff would pay any attention to you. After scanning the room and other tables it was obvious that the only tables that got good service were the one's who chose to add on the $30/person wine tasting to an already $50/person joke of a meal. Will never recommend to anyone. This place is awful; service is HORRIBLE!!! And to top it off, we weren't even acknowledged when we left or thanked for coming in. DO NOT go to this restaurant!!!

Not cheap, but really yummy!. I love this place...I find the service to be warm and friendly and the food is reliably good. I particularly like the desserts - they make a carmel corn that is unbelievable and the cookie place is worthy of Santa. The cocktails are also good. For a best prices and deals, go during happy hour.
