Fantastic experience. I do wish you had to go containers for when I can’t eat my entire burger. I could have made another meal out of 1/2. Also my granddaughter did not finisher her meal and what she left behind could have been another meal.

I love the concept. Everyone was kind and checked on us often.The portions were huge and presentation was amazing. My only suggestion, have the servers ask if we would like dessert. We were walking out when we saw a neighboring table received their desserts. Our fault, we didn’t see the desserts on the menu.

We love this place so much and tell all of our friends about it. The concept is so important especially with this economy. It’s nice to be able to take the family out even when we are on a super strict budget. Also the food is incredible. Lots of options and everything we have tried has been phenomenal. The staff is also amazing everyone is so nice and welcoming!

Truly appreciate how yesterday’s lunch for Leket Israel was so beautiful and well organized! You ensured every detail was above and beyond. You were quick to pivot with numbers, centerpieces, and a child (who we didn’t know was attending). Julie and Owen were such a blessing in serving with kindness and diligence. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we all had so much fun and enjoyed the meal. It was a joy to create awareness for both Leket and Taste! God willing will host another lunch in June if Netivyah can get flights out.

How to attempt to explain the pleasure and of dining at Taste? The food is incredible, the building is so warm and comfortable and classy, and the smiles that greet you when you walk in the door! Then the idea that everyone is welcome, regardless of their ability to pay, is such a light in our dark world. Jeff and Julie have built a longer table.

We really enjoyed our visit, the food was very good and such healthy choices. I made a reservation for 12 way early, but then our group got seated at 2 tables. The tables were close, but it did not feel like the outing we had planned. The restaurant was not overly crowded, and it seemed to have the room to accommodate a party of 12 at one table. Otherwise, all was good:) we will return.

Ice tea very weak. Doesn't make sense a person cant order 2 small bites however could order a small bite and entree. My eggplant was fabulous (and my grilled pound cake)!

I am sure it is different every day, would like to have seen more people "in need" eating rather than just ladies who lunch. We will continue to support and to donate as we need this so much in our world. The food was delicious, the service maybe too attentive but that's okay. Hope to hear the stats as to how many in need that are being served. Great work!

The only suggestion I have would be how the bill is handled... Perhaps eliminate the check presentation/payment expectation, and offer a donation option on the way out of the building. We can't afford much right now, but wanted to give something. However, I felt pressured to give more than we could afford. I don't mean the staff pressured us, but the presentation of the check without pricing, and the payment process was uncomfortable. We did greatly enjoy the meal, the atmosphere, and the service staff were wonderful. Thank you!

We enjoyed the experience. The service was good, and the food was good but could have use a bit more seasoning on the steak. I will come back.

The food was great. However I feel like there is still room for improvement when it comes to the waiter that I had. Its the first week of the opening of the restaurants .. so there are some kinks that needs to be worked out . In addition the resturant not having straws bother me . I will bring my own straws next time lol . The manager Mez was awesome and he had great customer service .

We felt like we were “run out of the restaurant”. At 1:45 we were asked to leave because they had another reservation. There had to be at 20 empty tables & they closed at 2. If they wanted us to leave so they could start closing, then tell the truth. It was very awkward the way it was stated & left us with a weird feeling after a wonderful lunch with 2 friends.
