THE CHEFS TABLE EXPERIENCE
Sit back and enjoy a relaxing 3 OR 5-COURSE TASTING MENU

WE ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS AND THEN BASED ON YOUR ANSWERS WE GET TO WORK RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU IN OUR COMPLETELY OPEN KITCHEN.

Innovative plates constantly changing. And while we continually strive to come up with exciting new approaches to beloved classics, we are unwavering in our insistence on premium quality and absolute freshness.

Be as involved as you want. Opt to sit back and soak in the good things that come to you in the cheery air-conditioned dining room or on the romantic poolside terrace under the stars. Or, make yourself comfortable in the open kitchen and be part of the action.

All in all, an evening at TASTE is an unforgettable and yes, somewhat theatrical experience

    Una buenas experiencia, solo no estaban disponibles las pizzas y pastas lo que limito nuestras opciones, aún así los platillos muy bien servidos y deliciosos. El servicio y la atención muy buena. Definitivamente volveremos

    El servicio y la comida eran simplemente sublimes. Soy viejo, muy viejo, incluso antiguo y la comida de esta noche fue la mejor de mi vida.

    Lou is still holding forth on the floor, the new chef/owner is a Canadian and certain of the restaurants impending success. Based on my Sunday visit for Prime Rib Night, it does seem certain. Fine Shrimp Bisque and a Wedge Salad lead to a quality piece of meat with authentic Horseradish and jus. I truly can’t speak to any other night, but it appears I may need to book a considerable time ahead before returning to Merida in January! Have much success Bruce!

    While we were sad to the former owners of Lou’s go, we really pleased with our experience there with new owner/chef, Bruce. The cuisine is a welcome change - sort of sophisticated home-style fare. There are many options and Bruce is happy to discuss any preferences you have, in fact I’d say he actually welcomes it. We look forward to returning!

    An intimate restaurant serving international, I.e. gringo food with a sweet bar and excellent mixed drinks. Very small and the tables fill quickly so reservations are a must.

    I would love to give a 5 star review but it’s not a 5 star place. It did have a full house of expats. The owner was trying but there is just so much one person can do. My first coarse was bang bang shrimp and then burrata which was very good. For our main course we had the pork chop and carbonara. They were both good, the carbonara could have had more flavor. The wine was not good. They had a hard time keeping up with everyone. They are new, I’m going to give them another chance.

    The best meal we had in Mérida and quite possibly the best meal we have ever had . Bruce is a wonderful host and very talented chef and we both throughly enjoyed our evening at his restaurant. Do not miss this experience.

    We happened upon this little restaurant by chance. The owner/chef asked us a few questions about allergies and our likes and dislikes and put together the best meal we had in our 2 weeks in Merida. What a treat! Highly recommended!

    The chef/owner is a delightful Canadian ex-pat who clearly loves to cook. Come hungry and don’t expect a menu, you just tell him what you like. Lovely to sit in his home with just a few other tables!
