This past weekend we tried this spot out for brunch while visiting from VA. OMG it was amazing. I loved the vibe. It was a beautiful restaurant. It has plenty of seating. It got crowded quick so definitely get a reservation. It didn't take long to discover why. The food was so good. Our server, Diamond, was absolutely the best. We loved her personality. She went out of her way to make sure the meal was just right. I highly recommend brunch. The Mac and cheese was the best I've ever eaten. Everyone was thrilled with their choice in food. All the plates were empty fast. My cocktail of choice was the Side Car. It was a 10/10. I can't wait to go back on my next trip. read more

This was recommended to us by a friend since we were visiting from MD and it lived up to the hype. I'm still mad my leftovers didn't make it on the flight with me. We made a reservation and that was absolutely necessary after seeing the wait upon arrival. We were seated immediately which was plus. The upstairs is a bit cramped but they made decent use of the space. The environment is very laid back but vibrant, music was rocking and it's VERY black in there which I love. Our server was Brian and he was the best. I was torn between the taste of soul and the catfish and grits and he was so patient and helpful with me as I mulled it over. We had: Garlic and Herb lamp chops - 10/10 - they were so moist and flavorful I have no notes. The order came with 4 so it was great to split. Calamari - 10/10 - no notes, the texture was perfect the portion size was perfect and the aioli was a great paring but they typically serve it with marina. I asked for a lemon on the side and they brought one grilled, I didn't ask for that but I was happy with the assumption. Catfish and grits - 10/10 - the portion on this plate was insane, INSANE. The grits? Please, put me in a room and give me some privacy because wow. The texture was so creamy and rich without overpowering the catfish. It got to a point in the meal where I was just eating it so I could taste it even though I was spreading like a peacock on the inside. The only thing I would change about this dish is the amount of Cajun cream as it was a bit heavy handed for my taste. I skimmed some off the top and that worked for me. Peach cobbler waffle - did not taste but my friend said they were good. Candied yams - 10/10 - I typically hate yams, it's something about the taste that's artificial to me but these were amazing. The texture, the hint of cinnamon spice were so good I had seconds. Greens - 5/10 - my least favorite thing. They were so salty I couldn't finish my bite. After my friend mentioned us being there for my birthday Brian brought out this cute slice of cake and sparkler before he started hooting and hollering and I enjoyed that haha. Thanks for making our service enjoyable Brian, we will be back. read more

I'm currently at Taste Kitchen + Bar and was genuinely excited to visit a spot where I could enjoy the NBA Playoffs atmosphere. Unfortunately, the experience has been extremely disappointing. First, I want to say my server Makala was great and did the best she could. However, everything else was a major letdown. The jerk wings were overwhelmingly salty, tables were not being cleared in a timely manner due to the lack of bussers, and the drink service was unacceptable. The drinks... THE DRINKS. I ordered a beer with a cold glass. Instead, I received a lukewarm bottle of beer and was told by the manager, Jordan, that they were "going to freeze a glass now." When I asked what I was supposed to drink while waiting, I was essentially told "nothing" and that I should just wait for the glass. Jordan then offered a discount on the beer as if that solved the issue. At that point, it became very clear there are serious management and operational problems at this location. As someone who came to check this place out as a possible venue to bring business to next weekend, this experience completely changed my mind. I'm in Houston with a group of 300+ people, and after tonight, I would not recommend this location to any of them. Very disappointing experience overall. -Charly read more

Visit Saturday, 4/4/26. Based on the reviews & compliments seen & heard the Hubby & I had high hopes & expectations for this spot, especially after a $225.00 check (tip not included). Unfortunately, that is NOT what we received. The wait time was fair, about an hour or so. That gave the Hubby & I the opportunity to be tourist in our own city. And that, was the best part of this experience. That & the music! When we received the notification our table was ready, we walked inside & saw the vibrant atmosphere, smiling faces, heard clinking glasses & cheers. The music was awesome, & I was excited. Then the hostess led us downstairs to another dining area. VERY dark, very moody, but the music was still awesome! My excitement diminished significantly but the Hubby said "This is more intimate", & I reluctantly relaxed. Seated at ~1:20, received waters at ~1:25. Server finally came to the table around 1:39, took our drink order, & received our drinks around 1:50. 2:05 the server came back to take our appetizer/food order, & I asked about the "brunch" menu. The server response was, "it's the 'all things grits'". I asked about omelets & she responded "those are on our breakfast menu which ends at 11". We placed our order, & I asked to keep a menu in case I wanted another drink. Appetizers arrived at 2:19, & we literally could not tell which wings were which, & the server was no where to be found to ask, so we had to taste them. Thankfully the wings were good, but the lack of plates, napkins, & server to request any cancelled that out. We saw an attendant clearing a neighboring table & asked him for extra napkins, but he told us to asked the server. Let's just say we never received extra napkins. Our food finally arrived at 2:58! My Hubby received one wrong side, but he said the jerk lamb chops were okay. My ribeye & eggs were COLD! Cold to the touch & taste, but the potatoes were PIPING HOT! That says nothing other than the food was prepared in the wrong order. Hubby's correct side was brought by another server. About 10 minutes afterwards our server was flying past us but the Hubby forced her to stop to tell her about my cold (at that point even colder) food. She asked if I wanted the food remade, but considering it took almost an hour to get the food in the first place, the lack of service & attention, I said no and asked for a to-go plate. I said I'd come back & make sure to request to sit in the main dining area & give the restaurant another chance, but the Hubby said absolutely not! For me, to hear him to say that speaks volumes, so we will not return. read more

I haven't actually got to dine in at the new location but did place a to go order for the catfish and grits. I was craving a really good catfish and grits with a cream sauce and this definitely exceeded my expectation. I would like to give them a try dining in, but I saw they require a $50 deposit per person which is a little excessive so I'll just continue to order to go for now. The sauce was flavorful I do wish the catfish was fried a little hard, but that wasn't an option when you ordered to go. I definitely recommend trying this based on my experience for to go. I hope to make my way in one day to see what the ambience and service is like. read more

Food was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and came out quick. Not a single miss. Our server was AMAZING. Super detailed, gave her favorites, and even helped us adjust our order for pre race. Honorable mention to the R&B playlist... 10 out of 10, no skips. We might have to spin the block instead of trying somewhere new in Houston read more

Yelp family, you didn't fail me!!! We decided to have brunch here based on reviews and went ahead and made a reservation (make the reservation, you'll thank me later) for brunch on Sunday. We walked in and was seated quickly. Brian was our server. Brian got us started on waters while we looked at the menu, we ended up ordered calamari and wings (jerk/orange pepper) but was told that they were out of calamari and decided on the cauliflower with general tao's sauce. I got the Nearest Peach drink with whipped cream on top and order the Taste of Soul but opted for oxtails. The appetizers started the meal off right. The cauliflower was a great highlight as everyone enjoyed it (someone even mentioned ordering another one and even ordering to take home with them), the jerk chicken was good although the jerk was a little on the drier side than the orange pepper was. However you know food is good when you don't have to add anything to it (salt, pepper, hot sauce) and that's what was given to me. The greens had nice heat to them, the yams were sweet and delicious, the oxtail still had a little too much fat on them for me, but it didn't stop me from getting into them. The cornbread waffle was a nice little addition. The rice with the gravy was a nice bite. Seriously, I just sat there and smiled because this plate of food didn't disappoint. If you like liquor, you'll like this drink. Seriously, there's nothing that has me questioning if I would come back and try it again. My sister has the blackened catfish and grits which she enjoyed, my friend had the fried catfish and grits which she said the cream sauce made the dish . . . No complaints from us. The place gets busy so I highly recommend making that reservation. It has a busy, lively vibe and when you walk in, do get intimidated by the size as there's a whole upstairs section. And the service Brian provided was TOP NOTCH!!! He made sure that when we walked out, we were satisfied. GO!!! Thank me later. read more

Had my second visit here as I was in Houston for work. Was excited to come and introduce this restaurant to my wife as my first experience was great, however this time around it wasn't as great. We sat at our table and waited to be acknowledged by our server which took a little longer than normal but that's okay no worries, our server apologized. Ordered our drinks and then placed our food order since we were ready. I ordered an Arnold Palmer and my wife ordered a Starry, followed the Gumbo and taste of soul for myself and my wife ordered the Cajun pasta with no bacon. Our food came out and unfortunately the Cajun pasta came out but it did not come out as it read on the menu with Cajun cream sauce, it came out with marinara sauce. We made a comment to our server and she told us it came with either sauce or no sauce so we pulled up the menu and sure enough it said Cajun cream sauce or substitute for marinara sauce which we did not do. So when she came back around we showed her the menu and she said she would check. Upon confirming she took the plate back and said she'd get it fixed. We waited a few minutes and the plate came back out however it came with bacon which we had asked to not include in the dish, at this point we were hungry and wanted to start eating so my wife said it was okay and didn't want to wait to have it re made again. The restaurant was not really full so it was a bit disappointing that this happened as I was really excited to have my wife try this restaurant. Not sure if we'll be coming back but at least we got to experience the restaurant. read more

Chose Taste Kitchen because they had all day waffles! Went to celebrate a friends competition win & her request was waffles. Went had a large group ~20 people. I would say this place is not fit for large groups. Could only seat tables of 6 all next to each other. Ended up booking through their large party coordinator which requires a deposit, fair as it's a large party. Prior to booking, attempted to just book through OpenTable - even there they require a $50/person deposit, non refundable, which seemed a little extreme. Our waitress was fantastic, attentive and had great suggestions. Overall the group seemed to think the food was fair. Those of us that got waffles were very happy. The jerk chicken was super flavorful and waffles were so fluffy. The Jerk lamb was also great! One of the best Espresso martinis I've had in HTX. If you're wanting a place to be able to have a conversation, this isn't it. The music was so loud you could hardly think, let alone have a conversation without shouting at each other. read more

Okay we are a party of 7 so we tried many dishes. But let me say that we ordered and reordered and then reordered fried cauliflower This recipe was the star of the show for all 7 of us. Could not get enough. The strawberry salad comes with a bourbon vinaigrette dressing gross needs work. We asked for it to be on the side but they put it on the salad the staff was so sweet totally amazing staff. The grilled shrimp and Gouda loved the cornbread my nephew rated it 3 star. He really was Not too impressed but the Service is top notch. Mixed drinks omg three drinks left me feeling Whow great.

Celebrated a birthday here with friends and what a great experience! Brian was our server and he was phenomenal. He provided suggestions, honest feedback and asked questions to ensure that our needs were met. I ordered catfish and grits with mocha coffee and saying it was delicious is an understatement! We also received complimentary appetizers for completing a Toyota survey. I ordered orange pepper/ jerk wings. Cauliflower wings coated in general tso was also ordered and was tasty. Friends ordered cocktails with their meals and they looked and smelled great. I look forward to returning to Taste in the future and hope that Brian is our server. I highly recommend! read more

Needed a quick late afternoon lunch to go and Taste was the closest place ... lemme just say that sometimes you don't have to travel far for amazing. I ordered the lobster Mac and Cheese--it was spectacular. The lobster had a little spice to it but every bite just left me wanting more. The restaurant was clean, the staff friendly and helpful and the vibe was hip and impressive. Taste is most definitely worth a visit. read more

Amazing food and great service. Lamb chops fried lobster greens dirty rice and calamari I can definitely vouch for. Atmosphere is great too

Taste Kitchen & Bar has one of the best happy hours I've found: great flavor, solid portions, and a fun atmosphere. I was in town for AfroTech, so it was definitely packed, which may have influenced the wait time ( we had a reservation and were fine but some one right after us didn't and it was a 2 hour wait) and the overall energy, but it was still a good experience. What I recommend: Jerk Lamb Chops - my top pick. Full flavor and cooked well. Chicken & Waffles - surprisingly good; crispy and well-balanced. Cocktails - creative presentation and good pours (pictured). Things to know: It gets loud, so this is more of a vibe than a quiet dinner spot. Make a reservation, especially on busy weekends or conference weeks. Happy hour is absolutely worth it--good value for what you get. Overall: I'd give it 4 stars mainly because of the volume level, but the food and happy hour make it worth a visit. If you're looking for great flavor, good energy, and strong cocktails, Taste delivers. read more

One of the best meals I had during my recent Houston trip was here @ Taste! It came recommended from a lovely young lady that worked in the Galleria Mall. Me and the homies came by on a late Sunday morning to check out this deliciousness we heard about. The place itself has two levels in which we got seated upstairs. We could overlook the bar downstairs where all the TVs were. We had a nice server by the name of Demiya, in which they were a bit soft spoken but effective on covering the menu. Was very hungry so wanted something really good so I went with the Seafood Omelet. It comes wit shrimp only in reference to seafood so maybe they should change the name lol. The smoked gouda cheese definitely adds great flavor to it...needless to say, this is a great omelet. The woman at the mall told us the pecan praline waffles was the move here! One of my homies got it and she was right...very damn good! No syrup needed at all. So much good stuff on this menu. I would definitely return to Taste when I come back to Houston! Great place, food and service. read more

Visiting from out of town and was recommended to try Taste. Made reservations because it was busy on a Saturday evening. Arrived greeted and was sat within 10 mins. Waitress was warm and welcoming explaining each response for my questions. Recommend everything on the menu but tried blackened shrimp and grits, side of lemon pepper wings and a Mai Tai. Mai was great, however the real recipe for the drink doesn't have juice. Wings were hot and flavorful. Lemon pepper was not overly aggressive and crunch on wings was perfect. Mail dish shrimp and grits were heavenly. That creole sauce took it to another level. They had great music and sports games on the tv's. Con: was when I made reservations I didn't fully read they hold $150 for reservations that went to total bill. Definitely wish they was more prominent on the reservation page. 90% of staff was AFAM which I loved in a black owned business. read more

Taste Kitchen and Bar came highly recommended on social media so I decided to check it out while visiting Houston. During my research I noticed they require a card on file for reservations, and if you do not show there is a $50 charge. If you do show, the charge goes toward your meal. While I did not mind the policy, I was not sure of my itinerary so I walked in without a reservation. What really attracted me to this restaurant was not only the positive reviews but also their happy hour menu. They offered lamb chops for $6 each with a minimum of three, and that was exactly what I was craving. They also had $8 cocktails like a sidecar, lemon drop, and frozen drinks. I ordered three lamb chops along with macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes. My mom ordered the Soul Plate with oxtail which came with a sweet potato, greens, and a cornbread waffle. Everything we had was delicious. Erin was our server and she was attentive and gave excellent recommendations. The oxtails were served over rice with a rich gravy. There was some fat on the oxtails but the flavor was incredible. The food overall was amazing, the prices were reasonable, and the service was strong. The restaurant itself is beautiful and has a lively, popular atmosphere. It is a Black-owned business that attracts a wide range of guests, and when both the food and ambiance are this good, it is easy to see why. read more

Shoutout to Aaron for servicing our table Saturday morning! He was prompt, attentive and patient with our varies requests! We arrived for our 11:45am reservation. We booked a reservation via open table which required a $50 deposit per person. That deposit was applied to ticket at the end of the meal. Please know that you cannot get a refund if you spend less than $50 pretax. The 2-story restaurant is located in downtown Houston. Parking options include paid parking garage or open lot across the street. The restaurant was semi spacious and inviting with lots of natural light. We were seated upstairs with window views overlooking Main Street. We ordered fish and grits, chicken & waffles, taste burger, fried okra, and taste wings. All were delicious! We also ordered the deep fried bread pudding which was decent, but fried way too hard. I feel as if frying it is a bit unnecessary and overpowers the flavor. Overall it was a really good experience! read more

Easy five star review! This location has been on my radar for awhile. I haven't stoped in until last week. Mainly due to the parking situation. I had our valet drop me off so it worked out good. Food: the food is simply amazing! The fried chicken with gravy (smothered chicken ) was amazing. The sides were great too. That waffle they give is amazing. I could easily eat 20 of them lol. The yams were amazing. Fries were great. So was the white rice with brown gravy. Top notch food! Customer service was great. There was a bit of a wait but they sat us right away at the bar. Cindy was great. She kept our drinks filled and took good care of us. I'll definitely be back asap! Easy 5 star review. Amazing food! read more

The food was decent, but nothing special--something you could find anywhere. I might have felt differently if I'd been able to order chicken, but after we were seated our waitress said chicken would take an hour... even though the only other two tables in the restaurant were eating chicken. The wait also didn't make sense. When we arrived there were only two occupied tables and a lot of staff standing around. We were told it would be a 10-minute wait, but during that time no tables emptied and staffing didn't change. Not sure why we waited to be seated in what was basically an empty restaurant at first. Honestly, the bar seems like the main reason this place stays busy--not the food or the service pace. read more

Two foodies from Houston, Taste Kitchen & Bar came recommended from another self proclaimed foodie. We ordered two dishes: Taste of Soul and Taste of New Orleans. The Taste of Soul was upgraded with the ox tails served over rice which came with a side of collard greens, yams, and waffle shaped corn bread, and I ordered a side of Gouda Mac and cheese. The ox tail were cooked to perfection and you could taste the fresh beef. The sides were equally delicious and filling. However, the Mac and cheese didn't taste like Gouda. However, we do eat lots of cheese and Gouda is our cheese so it may take more Gouda per mac serving for us. The Taste of New Orleans came with catfish and shrimp which were both fried, well, with a creamy sauce. The taste is unique and enjoyable. However, we do have to say that parts were heavily seasoned with black pepper. We think the seasoning simply needed to be balanced and incorporated abit better. Foodie number two did clean his plate nothing was left of the Taste of New Orleans. We had an early lunch so the place was not crowded, service was professional yet friendly. The restaurant itself is located in downtown Houston in a corner building with lots of character and a great looking bar. We encourage you to try it for yourself for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or all three. read more

Went for our anniversary date night. The food was ok however the gravy was so hot with spice it was not appetizing. My major issue was getting the bill to find extra charges. We were charged an extra $4 per person to have two thighs with our meal instead of a thigh and a leg and was also billed an extra $2 per meal to have the gravy from the smothered chicken on the side instead of on the chicken. I have never been to a restuarant that has charged extra for things like having a sauce poured in a cup on the side instead of right on the plate. These are hidden fees the waitress should have mentioned when she took our order. We have been to this establishment before when visiting Houston but needless to say, we wont be back. An extra $12 for nothing on a bill over $120 for 1 appetizer, 2 meals and 2 cocktails is ridiculous! read more

Came here while visiting for the weekend. I made a reservation online and when I arrived, I was glad I did because the waiting area was packed with people. Even with the crowd of people, the service was pretty fast. I got the taste surf and turf with the lamb chops and fried lobster tail. Lamb chops were super flavorful and juicy. My favorite was the sides. Easily some of the best collard greens and yams I've had in a while! My sister got the taste of soul and was able to swap out one of her sides for the mac & cheese. The portions were great! We took some home and it was still good when we heated it up later. Everything was well seasoned and tasted fresh. With the music and crowd of people that can't get loud at times but nothing too crazy. I would highly recommend making reservation if you plan on visiting. When making the reservation you have to leave a deposit which goes towards your bill. Will definitely visit next time in town. It's great for large groups. read more

I come here way too much. Every time the food is always on point. Very consistent. Ive tried a few different dishes, I have no complaints. They never disappoint here, at least for me.

I sung along to every 90's R&B song they played...well played but I didn't like that there was no lunch/brunch menu. We were immediately guided upstairs for a table for 2. It had a good view. I ordered the suggested Taste of New Orleans with grilled shrimp. It was very good. My husband ordered the Taste Breakfast, he liked the grits. We ordered pecan praline, peach cobbler, red velvet and sweet potato waffles. The waffle batter had no flavor and the toppings didn't save them, they were so bland. If I HAD to choose, the pecan praline was best only because the topping was good. Save your money. I ordered the lavender blueberry margarita. It had a pretty presentation but it was bitter. I had to stir it with the rock sugar candy stick to make it more palatable. Sighs, customer service wasn't outstanding given staff were very young and flirtatious with one another. It was giving a high school energy. We had to flag down our waiter a few times. Maybe I'll come back during the evening on a weekend for a different experience. read more

We arrived at 11:30a, were seated close to noon and done by 1:35p. The food was good and our server was great! However, the hostess, who had zero interaction with us, came to our table as we were already packing up to say "I need yall to get up and GO so I can seat more people!" Very RUDE and unprofessional. I spoke with the manager whom I doubt would make any correction. She had the nerve to say "Have a good day" with a smirk as we left. Word to anyone running a business, CUSTOMER SERVICE is a priority. We have a choice when we spend our money and it will NOT be where bad attitudes feel free to mishandle customers. Imagine if that attitude carried your food! read more
