    Took my husband out for his birthday dinner, and we both enjoyed our meal very much. Service was smooth and prompt. Everything from appetizers to dessert was very tasty. It was not our first time at Taste, and I’m sure it won’t be our last.

    Food and service were outstanding. One of the better filets I’ve had and the vodka rigatoni was very good.

    Great food. I am utterly impressed with Taste. The meatballs are so so good. Risotto lobster was great! We went to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and their “birthday treat” was so cool!!
