    Nice variety of combinations. Fits all sizes of appetites. Drinks and service were satisfying! Open air dining. Beautiful day!

    This restaurant is such a fun concept and allows for many mixed match plates. I go the vaquero slider and spring chicken slider with the French Brussels. All was delicious but I realized it was far too much food for me. Our waitress was great, I loved the cozy feeling of the interior. Great dinner.

    This very unique place is a must visit in downtown Paso Robles. The food is delightful, the menu style is unique because you can choose small bites in various combinations. So much amazing and delicious variety! Service was stellar and food tasted superb. Appeared on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives... Lives up to the hype!

    We recently discovered Taste Craft Eatery while we were walking around Paso Robles for a fast and convenient place to eat while we were staying in the area. We wanted a place that had some wine and beer and a nice selection of food and Taste seemed to fit our needs perfectly. We didn't have any reservations so we were prepared to wait but we lucked out and were seated immediately out on the patio under a heat lamp. SCORE! Although it was chilly out, the heat lamp was just warm enough to be outside on the patio. It was a great spot to see all the foot traffic and all the holiday lights on display at the adjacent park. We had a wonderful server (unfortunately, I can't remember her name) who explained how we could best sample the Taste experience. We got a quartet of: California cowboy Cobb salad, super power spin salad, gouda burger and a blue bird chicken sandwich plus an order of truffled up fries with a few glasses of Paso Robles wines. Everything was just delicious and the portion sizes were just right so we didn't quite overeat. The restaurant was busy with all of the tables getting turned over with great efficiency. The outdoor patio was filled with joy as we observed families and friends exchanging tales of the weather and their journeys to Paso Robles. We truly enjoyed our first Taste experience and look forward to returning to Paso Robles for another adventure! I hope more people come in to experience all that Taste has to offer!

    Poor attempt at photo eating :)  some of the mushroom flatbread and fries, along with teen munching on sliders

    We stopped here to get a quick taste of Paso Robles on our way back to the SF Bay Area from SLO. It's situated in the nice square with a charming playground and walking area. Honestly, I came to charge my car at the nearby supercharger. We were lucky though, as this area has a fair amount of traffic at lunch. Getting to the actual craft eatery, we were seated quickly on a Tuesday near lunchtime. Our waiter was polite and patient and even offered to explain their menus. They typically have many slider types that you can choose from in groupings or 1-4 (or more, I'm sure!). We had a hungry teen with us who got 3 of his own. I split a duo with my spouse and got some supplementary appetizers (mushroom flatbread and fries). I found their fare pretty tasty! My slider was the lamb burger which had a nice spice zing to it. It was a little too zingy for my teen though. He still was fine with his other sliders. My spouse had the steak ish burger which was also delicious, if not a bit harder to bite into versus a burger. The apps were also great and filling. Supplemented by a glass of wine, I'd say it was a fantastic outing for us. A nice option for those in the area in my book!

    Pick 3 sliders

    Stopped in for lunch on a Saturday, sat at the bar. Great ambience and beautiful interior, food came out fast and was actually a decent portion for sliders (I eat a lot and I was full after). Have to say, the Cubano and Gouda were ridiculously great, the blue cheese was good as well but the other two were culinary masterpieces - never had any sliders that amazing before. No complaints, and heard a couple people sitting nearby saying they specifically come here whenever they're in town so it seems to be a crowd favorite and for good reason.

    Quartet Garlic Fries, Cheddar Mac, Figy Chicken and Blue Bird

    Located in the Park Square is Taste. This modern restaurant is very nice, clean, and modern. The service was kind of lacking. There wasn't many people in there, but to even get our waitress it took like 10 mins. Then everything after took awhile and wasn't even asked if I'd like more lemonade. The food was good, but let's be honest, the portions and price don't match, especially when not being served organic food. The chicken on both my sliders were dry. Everything had good flavor though. Ambiance and location are better than a 3, but everything else was a 3 or 2.

    Duo slider and fries.
    Cassy S.

    This is my second time at Taste. The first time was at the SLO location when it first opened. Prices were more reasonable then. I got a slider and fries for $18. I can get a whole burger for close to this, if not, this price. My burger was good and the fries were good. Service was okay. Our server was never around when we needed her and the place was not busy. It's a cute restaurant in a great location, but it's not worth the money. Unfortunately, I won't be back.

    Trio Sliders
    Carson M.

    Came with a large group and had a slightly private section at the very back of the restaurant. Service was good! I do think some dishes are better than others. Some of our group got the Macs and complained that it was watery on the bottom. I opted for the trio and got three different sliders. They aren't terribly big, so you can probably eat multiple if you're hungry. I do wish the sliders came with a different bread like something toasted or buttered. The bread it comes with is very plain. I had the dirty bird, tip o Argentina, and a third one that I forgot the name of. The dirty bird had a grilled chipotle chicken, which was fairly good but I wouldn't order it again. I would say the standout burger is definitely the tip o Argentina - really good chimichurri and aoli and the steak was soft. Paired with the sweet potato fries or other fries, and it was a great combination.

    We came on a Saturday night around 7:30, and there was about a 40-minute wait for indoor seating. However, there were plenty of outdoor seating options available, all equipped with heat lamps. We ordered the quartet, which allowed us to choose four items. We selected the savory sprouts (roasted Brussels sprouts), the mac and cheese made with cheddar cheese and topped with broccoli, the earth patty, and the grilled veggie with sweet potato fries, which came with a chipotle sauce. The fries and the Brussels sprouts were my favorites! We also ordered the flourless chocolate torte for dessert, which was super rich and delicious. I would say the price was a bit high, considering the portions were very small. However, I think the restaurant is still worth a try!

    Located in the downtown, near the park, and there were roadside and near restaurant parking. On Friday afternoon, walked in around 3pm ( just in time for happy hour). Five steps up and towards the main dinning area, clean and modern design. There is bar towards end and on the left side, there are some outdoor patio seating area. When we walked in, there are ten tables occupied. By 4:30ish, 70% seating occupied. Really like the mini Duo -$17 , Trio-$22 and Quartet- $32 options. You can pick and combine from sliders, Mac, sandwiches, salads and sides. They are all very small portions except the generous fry portion. The service is ok, took about 15 mins to take out order And the food serving time is descent. Atmosphere, menu idea and service 4 stars, food 3 stars, the veggie slider was dry and no flavor, and the slider bread is mini pita--- dry dry and very dry. Place good for friends and family .

    Gouda slider & classic Caesar salad
    Angela C.

    Located in downtown Paso, I came by with the family for dinner and discovered that this is another Triple D restaurant, so I had to take my obligatory photo with my second son and the Guy Fieri signature pic. The decor is beautiful, I like that they have an elevated patio area as well if you want to enjoy the weather. Service was attentive and friendly. This is a fun concept, you can mix and match your meal from 2 to 4 items and choose from a large variety of salads, sliders, mac and cheese, veggies and soups/sides. It's not super fancy food, but it's food my whole family will enjoy eating so that's a win. Prices are fair for what you get! During my visit, the current pricing was $17 for 2 items, $22 for three items, and $32 for four items (Tip: ordering 3 items is the best value). If you come a lot, there are so many combinations available that you can never get bored of your meal! My family and I all chose something different so we could switch plates and try different items. We all liked everything we got, no complaints. There's a full bar so you can enjoy good drinks with your meal. I highly recommend TASTE! if you're looking for good eats, drinks and ambiance!

Of note, we were never given an option for indoor seating when making our reservation nor when we were seated. After ordering, we received our starter (shishito peppers) within 10 minutes. However once we finished the starter we waited an additional 30-40 minutes for our entrees. There was no communication from the wait staff at all, no refills on water, nothing. In fact in the patio dining area I saw three plates of food (including our peppers) delivered to tables in the hour we had been sitting there. Interestingly the wait staff all seemed very busy and moved around the restaurant but not much appeared to get done. Having worked in hospitality previously I have a lot of empathy for the staff as they seemed to lack direction and management support. My husband ordered the mushroom and scallop pasta. It was okay. Overpriced, but was tasty. I ordered the chile relleno and steak. The chile relleno was filled with a large amount of corn that tasted freezer burnt. My steak was thin and grey and overcooked. It was nearly all grey inside with a couple spots of pink. It wasn't seasoned either. The sauces on the plate were good. Our server was polite and did take it off the menu. However, no manager ever came by to check on us or any other table on the patio in the time we were there. I had high hopes for this place based on the reviews. It was a real let down to have a lackluster food and service experience at "one of the nicest places" in Paso.

The town was hosting live music at the plaza across the street so we sat outside facing the plaza. It was a great way to enjoy our meal!

She was handling tables inside and outside but keep in mind when it gets busy you may wait a bit longer for things. I ordered "The Steak" which is a hangar steak with a compound butter on top and Brussels sprouts on the side, I subbed potatoes for coleslaw. The steak was cooked nicely and had a great crust on the outside, very flavorful with just the right amount of saltiness. The Brussels were some of the best I've had even though they were so simple. I ate every last one! The slaw was ok but not a ton of flavor, it was pretty light on the sauce. We also got an order of bacon wrapped jalapeños with cilantro ranch. They were so good!

    November 2025 Since…read moreI gave such a stellar review of the Bacon Crusted Burger at Street Side Ale House, I must update the comments since people do go to restaurants based on other's reviews. And I am so embarrassed to have recommended this restaurant to dozens of people. We raved to our friends about this place and this burger in particular. So, when we traveled with them to Paso Robles this week, we took them there on Thursday night. We passed on having the Wagyu 8 oz. burger and fries at In Bloom (Michelin listed) the night before in anticipation of this burger. Service was abysmal. We sat for quite some time with no service. My wife went in and asked where our server was? Finally, a woman showed up and said our waiter would be with us shortly. Sometime later, a friendly waiter arrived. He was obviously new, under-trained, and spread too thin. He was very personable, but our drinks sat on the bar for a long time and my wife had to go in and ask if she could take then. "No, the waiter will bring them out." Meanwhile, our friends were sipping on their drinks. We got our appetizers and then ordered our meals. The food came quickly, maybe too quickly, and I noticed no egg yolk oozing out (it was halved for us in the kitchen) and the burger overall was much thinner than the last time and the arugula was so wet under the patty. So, we ate a couple bites of it and it just did not taste right. I opened it up to find a baked or boiled grey patty with no crispy bacon wrapping. The bacon was soft, I mean boiled soft and was a small lump on top of the burger patty, not even close to crispy. More like a damp towel. The avocado was sliced but not spread out, so stuck on the left side. The egg was hard cooked with a solid yolk. No pepper to be found. I showed the waiter who was stunned. He thought we were kidding. The manger came out, looked at it, asked what we wanted to do. I was a bit surprised given the wreck that this burger was and said I don't know, what do you want to do? He said the chef wasn't there but took the plate back to the kitchen. He came back and said the chef (wait, he wasn't there) was surprised and said it was not right. The chef (if he was there) should have headed straight out to us and apologized. So, the manager took the burger off the bill but left the same horrible burger ($22) on our friend's bill. I should not have to tell a manager how to fix such a mess and disaster of a meal and service. I hope they fix their kitchen, whoever is checking food at the pass, and the service or they will be another casualty to the restaurant business in Paso. Sorry I had to write this as I rarely post negative reviews in order to not hurt a business and their employees.
