Pass the Wine, We Must Carry On

On Friday, we met for our last summer Supper Club of the year. Unfortunately, we were short two members. Michelle opted to float down some river with siblings and Kim made only a brief appearance with her sister opting for Indian take out. However, the show must go on so Maggie, Kathryn, Holly and I preceded to split two bottles of red (I think I enjoyed the majority of the Kenwood Pinot Noir as Kathryn was my ride), and tried to carry on without them.

Taste is located in Old Overland Park in the space once occupied by Tonic which was a bar and dining room. Taste is divided into two parts. The bar side is quite large and we enjoyed cocktails as we waited to be seated for dinner. The dining room side is lined with an exposed brick wall and eclectic decor.

The menu consists of tapas called "First Tastes" and then various entrees. The First Tastes are ample enough to either share or order as your meal. In fact, Holly ordered the crab cakes for her entree. The main entrees are a mix of seafood, beach and chicken. The Filet Mignon was excellent. We also ordered a seafood tasting of Seared Halibut, Mahi Mahi & Sea Bass and Brick Chicken which was chicken seared between hot bricks.

The general consensus was that the food was fine but nothing to rave about on our blog. As Maggie put it, "the food was ok, but the company was outstanding!!"

Our recommendation would be, "I wouldn't avoid it."
