TASTE Italian Kitchen - Italian restaurant in Starkville - 208 Lincoln Green, USA

From the time we exited our vehicle we were struck by the sleek decor and pristine atmosphere. Our server presented a menu of delicacies that admittedly evoked mouth watering. We ordered water and a sampler platter of appetizers plus a vegan meatball -- all were exquisite! Our entrée's did not disappoint either! A magnificent meal from start to finish!

From beginning to end ... this meal was a celebration worthy of our Shackouls Honors College graduate!! We started with wine, drinks and the Taste Charcuterie Board, followed by salads, then on to our main courses... our guests enjoyed the 8 oz filet, Atlantic salmon, eggplant parmigiana, the shrimp Gamberetti, and more ! Our server, Lauren, was attentive, polished and professional; she brought a special sparkler & cotton candy plate for our graduate ... fun way to end a spectacular evening !

Super cute. Everybody’s food tasted good. Everybody was satisfied. Wonderful and kind service as well.

Very disappointed. We had a reservation at 4:30. After a substantial wait on our meal, we ordered dessert (which was stale) and a glass of wine around 6. Wine arrived about 6:15 with a greeter "reminding" us our table was needed for a 6:30 reservation. We asked to speak with the manager and they sent another greeter who happened to be our neighbor's child, to tell us how sorry they were for over booking, but we had to go. It was embarrassing, distasteful and unprofessional. For $130 per person, I expected better.

This was my first time trying Taste. I only got the spinach and artichoke dip for lunch. It was so delicious. The garlic was a little strong and I don’t like that the wonton chips weren’t packaged separately from the dip because the steam from the dip softened the chips a bit but besides that I’m very satisfied with my order and look forward to trying more items on the menu.

I came in with a group of my friends to celebrate a birthday for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed every moment! The ambience and the accompanying jazz immediately relaxed our group as Rhodes took care of us. I’d highly recommend trying the red fish and the sampler platter (especially if it’s your first time)! I will be definitely coming back with family and friends soon!

My experience at Taste Italian Kitchen was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was enveloped in an enchanting atmosphere, adorned with exquisite aesthetics. The warm welcome from the host radiated genuine friendliness, setting the tone for an exceptional dining experience. The culinary delights surpassed all expectations. I had the pleasure of savoring the redfish entree, a masterpiece both in presentation and taste. The dish was meticulously plated, each element artfully arranged, and with every bite, the flavors danced harmoniously on my palate, creating an unforgettable sensation. My husband opted for the pork chop, and it proved to be a revelation. Tender, succulent, and bursting with flavor, it showcased the chef's unparalleled skill in crafting a truly remarkable dish. The impeccable service provided by our server further enhanced our visit. Attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their craft, they ensured every aspect of our dining experience was flawlessly executed. I wholeheartedly recommend Taste Italian Kitchen to all connoisseurs of fine dining. It is an establishment where culinary mastery and exceptional service converge, leaving an indelible impression. Prepare to be captivated, and don't hesitate to share this hidden gem with your friends—it is a culinary journey worth embarking upon.

The food here is very delicious!!!! Very expensive though. Everything is big enough to be it's own meal except it wasn't satisfying to have one piece of tomato cheese toast. I don't agree with that being $8. Also, there's not enough duck in the duck dumplings, let alone I expected DUMPLINGS, not like, gnocchi. Other than that, everything tasted really great!
