"Taste has something to offer that few of the big, brash places do - namely, a cozy place to stop in for a light supper. ...the little patio in front is pure gold."
-Irene Virbila LA Times
"...no sense commenting on each dish, the chef is marvelous and the food is excellent."
-Shirley Firestone
"This chic shanty may share the block with Fred Segal and Marc Jacobs, but its light, hip menu goes easy on your wallet."
-AOL City Guide
"Taste is a welcome addition to a delicious block that includes Luques and Ago."
-Richard Andreoli, Metro Source LA
"With its friendly service, sophisticated simplicity in its decor, dining at Taste is more akin to being invited to a classy - but completely non-snobby - dinner party."
- Jackie Lam, LA Alternative Press
"Modern comfort fare with a fashion sense."

Fortunately, here’s a book that investigates, explains, and offers advice for finding social success with the Caucasian persuasion. So kick back on your IKEA couch and lose yourself in the ultimate guide to the unbearable whiteness of being.
