Taste Community Restaurant

This is such a wonderful concept, excellent food and service. This was a reunion of folks that worked for United Way over 20 years ago. We were not an easy group. We had a delightful time. I hadn't been to the Arlington location until today. Both this one and the one in Fort Worth will not disappoint!

Delicious food. Great mission. Always a 10 out of 10. Give the servers grace. They are volunteers. The presentation and taste are superb.

Mez our server was very polite and very attentive. The people who work here are friendly and the food is health compared to other food options on the market. Our food was good, the only comment I would add is about the “small plate” on the menu it seems to be an appetizer but we were informed the portions are actually very large so that was a bit confusing and we decided to go with just the main entree. Overall the ambiance is relaxing and the interior design of the space is very nice.

Totally amazing what this restaurant is doing for the community of Arlington. The food quality is 5 star!! And such a serene atmosphere. Well worth checking out.

Pleaseee tell me you've been to Taste Project in Arlington & have helped to support this non-profit? They opened their Arlington location just a few months ago! Did you know their menu changes every few months? 👀 I will start by saying, I HATE any sort of 'slaw'. Maybe its a texture or a smell thing, I dunno.. but today I was living on the edge and ordered the BBQ Chicken Sandwich that comes with pickled peaches & summer slaw on top. Let me tell you.. it was DELICIOUS! As picky as I can be at times, I would definitely order this again.🤤 10/10 If you've never been, you won't find any prices on their menu when you arrive.. instead you'll see: 1. Pay what you can afford 2. Pay what you would typically pay, or 3. Pay what you would typically pay, plus a little extra If you've been to their Arlington or Fort Worth location, I'd love to hear about it. Comment below & tell me your thoughts!

Went to the new location in Arlington. They were not super busy around 1pm. I ordered the Chicken Katsu and it was really good. It was a decent portion for lunch. It came out after maybe 10-12 min. I ordered a water to drink. They do not serve alcohol at this location. Not sure about the others. I also ordered their panacotta and it was really good! They do not accept tips and they have you write what you feel the meal was worth. I will def be going again.

Loved the atmosphere but felt the food was off for the area. Butternut squash pasta was sweet which was a miss and was missing the flavor of goat cheese which was expected as its listed as a main component. I love the concept but feel like it could use some shaking down and get a little more texafied if that makes sense. As it stands too Foo Foo for my taste.

The restaurant is great! The food is fresh and really gourmet. I didn't expect the level of expertise in the food. I love that it also helps the community. It is a pay what you can restaurant so that is a different but interesting concept.

So excited for Arlington to have its own Taste Project. This will mean so much to the community! I was there when the restaurant was a shell of a building and saw the renderings of the building to come. The ribbon cutting was an emotional celebration! I was so happy to try a few items from the summer menu. The veggie Panini contains delicious mixture of fresh vegetables. I just had difficulty eating it because the bread was so thick. I ended up just picking it apart. The drunken noodles were absolutely delicious and definitely try those again. There's plenty of parking stretched out along the building and beyond. Reservations are suggestions. You pay whatever you think the meal is worth or more because a good meal is available to anyone, regardless of how much they pay. www.tasteproject.org will tell you everything you need to know.

Had brunch here and it was so delicious. Great pour over coffee and amazing mushroom frittata. I love the concept and mission!

AMAZING FOOD!! First time eating at the Arlington location and absolutely enjoyed it. It's a great looking restaurant with amazing food! Love their seasonal menu! Our food was delicious as always and the Mango dessert was incredible. Their "Pay what you can afford" or "Pay what you normally would pay and a little extra to help another family in need" is a most unique concept and shows a true heart and commitment to the community. Try them out next time you want to take the family out for a delicious culinary experience or just hang out for lunch with friends. You won't regret it!!

The food was delicious. It is well worth supporting especially for the cause. They were a little busy because they had some unexpected traffic come through so the wait time did get a little longer than expected, but the food came out and it was simply marvelous. I advise everyone to go by and support and try their menu items are different daily. You set your own prices so it's kind of one of those things where it's a donation based on what you receive, but the food is so good and the donation that you're leaving remember it help helps feed another person or homeless person that comes in that can't afford to actually pay for their meals so don't go and be subjective to not wanting to pay what the value of the food that you receive at least give enough to help someone else out marvelous concept I love the way that they're trying to give back to the community. The volunteer staff that works there are all very friendly and very professional. The environment is so clean, including the restrooms. It's a marvelous place to go have lunch.

Great food, great service. We love this place, Saljo's special is awesome house dressing is amazing

Such a great place! Pay what you can. The food was delicious and the building/ambiance was really nice with clean, modern decor. It was a nice brunch spot with the family. We will be back.

Food was excellent. Service pretty good, keeping in mind they are volunteers. Had squash flower quesadillas. Try them out!
