    Our first experience was great. This is hard to explain. We arrived at 6:30 PM. We were seated at a table for two . They were not busy; however we wait 30 minutes for someone to acknowledge that we were living breathing customers. Several servers walked by; the wine steward walked by. No one acknowledged us. I considered walking up to the bartender to explain the situation but decided if they were this disorganized we would just leave. Too bad

    The food and wine pairings were exceptional. I would have like a little more attention to detail in regards to knowledge of the food being served. We asked for a list of the wines we were served and for one of our courses yo be boxed. Both requests were forgotten.

    WE had sea bass; duck and cod-a-vin. All were delicious, served warm. Ask the wine steward for a recommendation with a price range. He served us a delightful Spanish Grenache and a South African Riesling . We will be back.

    We have eaten here multiple times. The food is absolutely amazing. The service is always helpful and spot on. We had the 6 course meal. We definitely left full, but the courses were the best we have had there. The wine parings were perfect with the food. We will definitely come back.

    The ambiance was lacking. There are not many choices of entrees. Being a vegetarian, I ordered the mushroom ravioli. The meal came with a lot of meat all over it. The sauce itself was tasty but the ravioli was frozen in the center. Will not be returning.

    Great food and experience. Superb service and sublime wine pairings with expertise. Realize it's a tasting but I would've suggested the just entree be larger, we both left a little hungry. 200+ all I'm but with the exception of yhe very small entree size, quality was phenom and well worth it

    We loved the friendly staff. Wine and drink recommendations were very good. We loved the AFT salad and Brussel sprout aperitif. The salmon entree was cooked perfectly and the sauce was tasty. The duck breast was beautiful presented but a bit chewy. We prefer on the espresso cake. We did not choose the tasting menu since both of us would have had to choose it.

    All in all it was a good experience. Last time we came was on fathers day. That experience was perfect and even got a bottle of wine for the 75$ and 5 courses. The value, the amount of food, and service was on point. New Year’s Eve was honestly not what I hoped for it to be. Service felt rushed and was very hi, bye from our server. It felt like there should have been one more course but there wasn’t one. It was 4 not 5. The over all price of 75$ was not acceptable for the portions of the food. We left the restaurant still hungry. We will still be back to dine in but not for the fixed course meal.

    This was our first time going to A Foreign Taste. The food was so good, we will definitely be going back. We were there for New Years Eve, so had a limited menu, but everything we had was fantastic. The Brunswick stew was a particular favorite, as was the chocolate cake. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a special occasion as the atmosphere and service were amazing.
