    Taste is a very nice casual dining spot locates in Ferguson. It is a black owned restaurant…read more There is a rose wall for photo opportunities. They have some nice artwork on the walls. Customer service was great. You place your order and they bring it out to you. There was table service as well. The guy explained everything and answered any questions. The food was very good. I heard great things. It was as good if not better than what I heard. The turkey ham fried was delicious. They have an assortment of peppers, onions, green onions, and eggs with the e protein of your choosing. The Creole Pasta with oxtail was amazing. The oxtail was very tender. Last but not least I tried the wings and fries. Of course it was very good. They have there own seasoning blend on the fries. This made them stand out. Come try Taste if you haven't. You will be back again and again

    This was my second visit (08/21/2026) in little over a year…read more In my first visit last year, Taste presented itself as an upscale dining establishment. However, it was a total misfire. First off, my menu was handwritten on a sheet of notebook paper. My soft drink was served in an unopened can with a plastic cup of ice. My green beans were canned, and the pasta in my mac & cheese was overcooked. The words (upscale dining) and the execution didn't match up at all. Since then, I learned that Taste did a relaunch. So, with this second visit, I was curious to see what improvements were made. Unfortunately, in their relaunch, they decided to pivot from upscale dining, and be more of a casual, takeout-focused place. Dining in now consists of metal trays, condiment packets, paper napkins, and plastic cups. I was really hoping for an improved upscale dining experience. One thing I noticed right away was the number of long tables set up for seating up to 6 people. There were no tables for a smaller party (e.g., dinner for two). In fact, I think this was the same setup in the previous version of Taste. Prior to my visit, I checked out the menu at the website, and the Ox Tail Sliders caught my eye. However, at the restaurant, I discovered that the menu (this time, it was printed and laminated) didn't include the Ox Tail Sliders. I also discovered that all the other ox tail dishes were only available on Saturdays. So I chose the Fins N Feathers (4 chicken wings, 2 catfish filets, and fries), and the watermelon flavored lemonade. Even though the dining area wasn't particularly full, it still took about 35 MINUTES for my food to arrive at my table! And both the chicken and the catfish were very salty. For what it's worth, my server brought me another lemonade for having to wait so long. Overall, Taste just wasn't what I hoped to see on this second visit.

    Me and my two youngest kids decided to try Hendel's for the first time since resturant suggestions…read moreon google maps told me it was only 7 minutes from my house! They definitely did not disappoint! From the moment our food came out, everything smelled amazing. I ordered the cheeseburger and fries with the spinach dip, and I absolutely loved the homemade chips that came with it. My kids got kids' meals and enjoyed their food as well. I also ordered a chicken Philly to-go for my son since it was his birthday, which made the visit even more special. Emma was our server, and she was very nice and attentive throughout our meal. I also loved that they have patio seating it's such a nice option, especially on a beautiful day even though we did not sit outside the patio seating we wanted was not open that night. I also liked how they had merchandise to buy while in the restaurant like tees, sweatshirts,bottles of wine . They also cook books for sale in their resturant by another shop we had recently been to called Made by Lia. That was definitely a nice community touch to show how close the area is to their companions! In addition, we had a great first experience and will definitely be back with the rest of the family!

    Parking lot is small. Get there early or street parking. May need to back out of lot…read more Service is great. The food was delish. The shrimp in the pasta was fresh and clean. Best restaurant o shrimp I've had in awhile.

I tried Lamb Chops w/Grits (1st time having Lamb Chops) & Eggs Over Easy, Salmon Croquette w/Rice & Scrambled Eggs and Shrimp & Grits. There was a hint of gaminess on the Lamb, but it was good. There is so much I want to try at Elicious. This restaurant will see me again. 8.5/10

    I had mixed feelings about our visit to Elicious. We were told the wait for a table would be about…read more15 minutes, but it ended up being closer to an hour. Once we were seated, it took another 10 minutes before our waitress came to the table, and about 40 more minutes before our food arrived. As for the food, there were definitely some highs and lows. The pancakes were outstanding--light, fluffy, and probably the best thing I had. My dad ordered the seafood omelet, and it looked amazing. He said it tasted just as good as it looked. On the other hand, the grits lacked seasoning, and the salmon croquettes could definitely use more flavor. I also ordered scrambled eggs with cheese, expecting the cheese to be mixed throughout the eggs, but instead it was simply a slice of cheese placed on top and partially melted. The staff was friendly and courteous throughout our visit, which I appreciated. However, as a culinary school graduate, I couldn't help but notice that the front-of-house operations seemed a bit disorganized. Better communication and more efficient service would make a significant difference to the overall dining experience. Overall, it was a mixed experience for our table of four. There were some dishes we really enjoyed and others that fell short. I'm on the fence about returning, but I haven't completely ruled it out. Hopefully they'll improve the timing and organization because the potential is definitely there.
