taste on melrose

i've heard so much stuff about taste on melrose . i've seen that building so many times on melrose with the words "taste" on it. "what is taste" i would ask myself. thanks to dine la's restaurant week, i took advantage of their 3 course menu. looking at their menu, i realized that all or most of the items were the popular dishes. i took my girlfriend, my partner in crime, and had an amazing lunch. we started off with the white truffle oil mushroom mac and cheese. this could possibly be the top 10 best mac and cheese i have ever had. not only were the mushrooms tasty inside, but the noodles were cooked perfectly. what makes this dish is the truffle oil. i know that stuff is expensive, and that's why it tastes so good. it gave it that rich buttery and savory flavor. honestly, this mac and cheese was top notch. i also tasted the lobster bisque. it was delicious and hearty, but i was looking for more of a lobster taste. the cilantro oil wasgoodin it, but might have taken away from the lo

a taste of taste!. super cute restaurant, great food, andgoodservice. what's not to love?! we ordered the kobe burger with pommes frites, fig and proscuitto pizza and the favorite salad. everything was delicious! we also had two of their desserts (don't judge us) -- the banana pudding and flourless chocolate cake. both exquisite! my tastebuds were fulfilled! :)

lame. i was expecting big things from this restaurant. the food was only okay. the ravioli had what seemed like pureed canned tomatoes on it. but worst of all our waitress basically ignored us when she realized we weren't going to be drinking or eating the expensive meat entrees.goodgrief! we still spent $50 for the two of us, and while pretty cheap considering the average entree was like $20 it's still nothing to turn up your nose at. she came over to help us a total of 3 times in 2 whole hours. booo... won't be going back.
