    Taste Kitchen food and drinks were amazing. We were able to be seated right away with having a reservation but there were still tables available even with no reservation. Restaurant felt divided with upstairs and downstairs. I think the restaurant should as for preference where to sit. The service was great and our waiter was very attentive. Would come back again.

    This new location is a really nice vibe for date, girls night or just hang at the bar. The food well done someone is connected with the ancestors with all the flavor that's in the food. There was live music and her voice was beautiful and song choices were perfect! Drinks 10/10 highly recommend made with love. Thanks for allowing us to celebrate my best friend's birthday!

    Nice chill environment. The food is absolutely delicious and you really do get your moneys worth. If you go, you definitely have to try the taste of soul With the oxtails. The oxtails rice and gravy ,yams , greens and I added a side of spinach were so delicious. Also I had a strawberry orange juice to drink as well really really good. My overall experience was nice. I would give taste a 10 out of 10 and I would definitely be back. Highly recommended if you go here, you will not be disappointed.
