    I would be sure to review your tab very closely. The drinks always came late, had to send food back. If you do a deposit they will not inform you that you still had money remaining. It seems like a way to scam people and keep any additional funds not spent. That’s called theft. Offered me a gift card for MY money, added the gift card to the total and that increased taxes and gratuity. Very disappointed in their “business practice” which seems immoral and shady.

    Taste Bar was a nice vibe. The atmosphere of the live music was really nice and is was really set the tone for my dinner. I ordered wings as an appetizer, the first bite that I took the chicken was raw and pink inside. I ordered lamb chops and I asked for them to be well done, they came out medium rare. I did have the Gooey Butter cake for dessert and that was 10/10. The drinks were also good, but I was so unsatisfied with the food. Taste Bar is probably better for bunch, but dinner was an absolute no. I wouldn’t come here again.
