Unlike some of the nearby high-end restaurants (and shops, for that matter), this indoor/outdoor bungalow is unpretentious and friendly. Sitting two-by-two along the covered deck or at marble-topped tables in the snug dining room, perfectly mussed WeHo foodies share herb- and veggie-heavy California fare. The rustic, NorCal-inspired menu includes seasonal finds like white truffle mac 'n' cheese, salads and pizzettas. The unusual but simple starter of grilled romaine lettuce topped with warm gorgonzola, bacon and Granny Smith apples is a must-try. Main course highlights like the popular Kobe…

  7. The food was good although it took about twenty minutes for them to take our order.
  8. By the time we actually did receive our food it was barely warm, which obviously meant it was sitting in the window for a bit.
  9. The crabcakes were better than most of the ones we've tried at some of LA's best seafood restaurants, seared crispy but not burnt on the two faces, the center was all crab (not googey or crumbling apart - perfect consistency), and zesty with red pepper.

Highly recommend for corporate events / catering

by rebecad at Citysearch

I recently asked Taste to cater a corporate event my company was holding in LA. Being from New York, I wasn't familiar with the local vendors but came across Taste online and the reviews were all positive. I'm pleased to say that they were all true! I have only wonderful things to say about the food and staff. Johanna, who leads the private events team, was an absolute joy to work with. She was organized, professional, very friendly and was willing to go above and beyond by bringing small table decorations to make the room seem warmer and festive. She made sure she knew the venue layout in advance and planned ahead regarding how and where the food was going to be prepared / served. Her staff were all very pleasant and moved effortlessly through the room of guests, making sure everyone tried each dish and didn't leave hungry. The food was outstanding and after working with several different caterers in the past, I must say that the dishes served by Taste really stood out. I would highly recommend using them for any small or large private events you have coming up. You won't regret it!

Taste on Melrose: Good eats; Nice outdoor seating

by bkbigfish at Citysearch

Had the following from the brunch menu, all were excellent:

- white truffle oil mushroom mac n cheese

- ahi tuna sandwich

- crab cake benedict

The pomme frites were cool because they were thinly shaved. Tasted very light and airy. Unlimited momosas were perfect...got myself a nice afternoon buzz. Great place to chill in booshie shopping area but without pretentious people.

  • Pros: Must try the truffle oil mushroom mac n cheese
  • Cons: none

Fantastic Weekend Brunch

by LLondon at Citysearch

This was a fantastic brunch spot to find! The food was delicious, as were the mimosas and bellinis. The prices were good considering how high-quality the food was. We sampled the Nutella brioche french-toast, crab cake eggs Benedict, breakfast panini and protein scramble. Each was superb! The service was friendly and attentive and the ambiance was lovely. Rustic yet chic. Very L.A. Would recommend this place to anyone!

  • Pros: delicious food for good prices

Love the steak!

by GinaCP at Citysearch

My cousin brought me here and I have loved it ever since. The space is really cute - small and cozy and the service is friendly. The steak is one of the best I've had and I love the mashed potatoes. It gets pretty packed at night, so be sure to come early if you can or make a reservation ahead of time. Other than the cramped space Taste is great!

A great place to sample many flavors

by jordana_lorraine at Citysearch

My friends and I love to share dishes, especially when trying new restaurants.

DAAAAANG!

  • Pros: unique food, friendly service
