Taste in Downtown Overland Park

I was on a mission to try and find a new place to eat for lunch. I was driving and driving and came across Taste. It is located in downtown Overland Park across from Penzy spice and Tasteful Olive. I was out to lunch late, around 2:00 or 3:00, so there wasn't any crowd. I sat at the bar and just ordered a water. I don't think I have ever done that before.... Well anyway, the bartender was friendly, and handed me a menu. The menu i received was different from the lunch menu online, but still had some of those dishes. I got some sliders! you can mix and match them too! Well i got the Egg Salad Slider, Tuna Salad Slider, and a Seared Ahi Tuna with Wasabi Mayo Slider. I also ordered a side of Sweet Potato Fries. When i was served the food was nicely plated. Very appealing to the eye. There were mini sized lettuce, tomato, and onion to go on the sliders for garnish too. I'm gonna start telling you about the Egg Salad Slider. This was the BEST egg salad that i have ever had!! it comes on a leaf of green lettuce with some toasted bread on the side to make your own slider or eat it on top of them. The only way i could think to make this Egg Salad Slider better would be to add some Horseradish for some KICK! Well next i tasted the Tuna Salad Slider. This wasn't as great as the Egg Salad one. It was extremely Salty. If it hadn't been for the salt, i think it would have been a good Tuna Salad. this was served in the same manner as the Egg Salad(make your own). On to the Seared Ahi Tuna Slider. It was pretty darn good. The tuna was a good thickness and flavor. The Wasabi Mayo could have been more potent in my opinion. there were also sauteed mushrooms on this slider which were really good. Ok here is to my 2nd favorite part of the meal, the Sweet Potato fries. these were the best sweet potato fries i have ever had! they were sweet and salty and yummo! i could have drizzled melted butter and sprinkled brown sugar on top of them to eat for dessert, but i just dipped them in my ketchup. it is so hard to find a good sweet potato fry. most end up not flavorful enough, or crispy and burned. these were amazing! So my overall opinion of this place is: Go eat at it! Check out their menu on their website. all of it sounds delicious!
