    The food was incredible, and so were the drinks. The service was quick and timed very well. They were able to accomodate our request to sit outdoors. Only positive things to say!

    It was a really nice atmosphere and vibe. We were there as soon as they opened so expected to wait for the food. Our server DJ was perfect. They checked on us multiple times even as the restaurant became filled. When the food came out it was very hot and fresh. The containers are deceiving because it is a hefty amount of food in each “little” bowl. The total came to under $70 for two people with drinks so it is definitely worth the hunt to find a parking spot. Would definitely recommend for fresh flavorful soul food.

    We had a great job celebrating my father’s birthday and Juneteenth at Taste 222. The food and drink were all delicious and I appreciated that layout that made the meal feel intimate without being on top of others. I also love all the black owned spirits & wine featured on the menu.
