What Natalie Krüger doesn't like about Tasting Kitchen:
Ordered the raddichio salad barely any dressing. The mussels were delicious. The mushroom papperdelle pasta came with bacon which didn't mesh well. The bolognese papperdelle was too rich and barely had any sauce and was very salty. Very overpriced and not worth your money for the quality. View all feedback. What P likes about Tasting Kitchen:
The last time I ran the Rock n Roll Half Marathon in LA was three years ago, when I had just moved to LA. I was excited to have it be my first run in my new home, and a half marathon at that. It was before my marathon racing days…my how time flies, haha. Making my rounds at the expo like a pro View all feedback.

Great food. Good service, although a little disappointed they did not acknowledge our wedding anniversary. Drinks are overpriced, good but small

The Tasting Kitchen offers a variety of dishes with mixed reviews. While some diners found dishes like the mussels and the sea bass to be delicious, others were disappointed with the richness of certain pasta dishes and small portion sizes. The service also received mixed reviews, with some praising the hospitality and attentiveness of the staff, while others found it lacking, especially during busy times. Despite the ups and downs, many guests enjoyed the unique cocktails, fresh bread, and delightful shishito peppers. The outdoor dining setup was praised for creating a lovely atmosphere, although some noise from Abbott Kinney was noted. Overall, The Tasting Kitchen presents a mix of flavors and experiences, making it worth a try for those seeking a memorable dining experience.
