Buzzy spot in a renovated building with a wine bar, creative mini burgers & other New American fare.

Went here for a sunday lunch and was very pleased. Our waiters were very nice and the food came out within a very reasonable time period. The benny burger and beach club were both super tasty and the mac and cheese (I got blue cheese with a bacon topping) was super creamy and delicous. Arnold palmer was a little heavy on the ice tea but still made for a good drink. It was a little loud but my ears got adjusted and it was fine from there. 5/5

Food was delicious. Love the sliders concept but the appetizers definitely stole the show. Even the Pacific Rim salad was more delicious than the 2 fish sliders I ordered.

Overall the food was incredible. I did a trio with the Cobb salad (delicious!), Fall Flyer (soooo good!!) and the Banh Mi (not with real pork belly, wouldn’t order again). Our waiter was great and we sat outside with 14 people and they served us well! Docking a star for two reasons: no espresso machine?! How does a fancy place that serves brunch only have basic coffee- huge miss. Also, the kids meal: cheese burger was a beef patty with cold shredded cheese on top, not melted, and the Mac and cheese was the same: noodles with shredded cheese on top, not really mixed or melted. I would 100% come back as the menu is so interesting and extensive, each visit would offer something different!

A and G, in town for A’s cousin’s wedding we’re at the rehearsal dinner at Taste. We had sliders for dinner. G had steak sliders and A had chipotle chicken. Both were so good. We both had drinks. A’s Old Fashion was on point, as was his 2 ounce shot of Bulleit Bourbon. G had a few frothier drinks and loved them. The service was great. The food was great. The outdoor seating with fire pits was really nice on a crisp autumn night. All in all, it was a beautiful dinner and I think it enhanced A’s cousin’s special weekend. Thanks Taste.

Always love the food at Taste. I always get the same order. Jalapeño burger, jalapeño and pepper jack Mac and cheese and a salad. Never any complaints on the food. The service is always ok. I was told to sit anywhere in the restaurant and I sat down at a table in the back. The table hadn’t been cleaned and they never offered to clean it. I also had to ask for utensils which was really off. Maybe this was a one off but if you tell someone to sit anywhere at least clean the table when they sit down.

My wife and I recently visited Taste Craft Eatery before a comedy show at the Fremont, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish.
Upon entering, we were immediately struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere, complete with charming decor and soft lighting. The moment we sat down, we were serenaded by Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You,” setting the perfect tone for the evening.
The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making our first visit feel special. I opted for the quartet, allowing me to sample four different items from the menu. The shoestring fries were perfectly crispy, and the sliders were nothing short of amazing. My wife chose the pulled pork slider and a chicken sandwich, both of which she thoroughly enjoyed.
However, the highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the dessert and the drinks from the bar. The cocktails were expertly crafted, and the dessert was a delightful way to cap off our dining experience.
Overall, Taste Craft Eatery exceeded our expectations with its delicious food, fantastic atmosphere, and attentive service. It’s a perfect spot for a pre-show meal, and we can’t wait to return!

To be quite honest, I don’t think this is a family friendly restaurant at all. There’s no kids menu and the only thing your kids can really purchase are a side of fries, a tiny side of mac & cheese that really has no flavor according to my daughter and myself or a plain burger now mind you all of those things to cost for just two items would be $17 for your child. My daughter did not like the mac & cheese at all so instead of just charging us for just a side of fries for which I asked they brought out a giant another plate of fries as her second side and continue to charge us $17 for a plate of fries. While my food was really good, I’m not sure if I’ll be back. I understand not every restaurant is a family restaurant, but this was a Monday night and there was no one in there. The least they could do is cater to most of the community who does have children and offer something at a discount cost, knowing how expensive kids are and charging $17 for a quote on quote kids meal is a slap in the face. So disappointing.

This is a fun place, especially if you have a group. There are a variety of sliders which are fun to share. The sliders are super yummy, and fun to try new combinations. The restaurant is busy and a bit noisy. We chose inside seating, but there is outdoor seating, which, if the weather is good, would probably be quieter. All in all a fun place with good food. An experience that must be tried.

We have been dining at Taste since it opened and have always loved the experience
Here’s what we love:
– robust-sized appetizers – truly large enough for 4 to share and get more than one or two bites.
– great atmosphere! We loved the old location and were concerned that the “vibe” would change at the new place but they have managed to make a large venue intimate and perfect for date night.
– never had better brussels. Every variation is just incredible.
– I love the ability to choose smaller dishes, but more items that I know I will eat and love. We often get an appetizer to share and each get a “Choose 2” or “Choose 3” and we’re stuffed. BTW, both of us love to eat so portion size is definitely something we look for.
– Drinks are always perfect
– the menu style is very conducive to sharing dishes amongst friends.
– love the decor and the bar area – very fun
– price – for this kind of food, the price is fantastic!
Things I would change if I could:
– parking is definitely an issue; if you are dining with people who have mobility issues, I would definitely pull in and drop them off, then go and park on the street.

This place had amazing sliders. I’m from Bay area, San Jose but I’ve never found such a good restaurant in San Jose so far.
We are a vegetarian crowd and the two veggie burgers that they had were just amazing.
More than anything the style of ordering was the best you could other order two three or four and it worked best if you’re with family with kids.
That how much plate was kids favorite.
Our table was taken care by Preston and he did an amazing job.
