Taste at the Virginia Beach waterfront, specifically the Oceanfront location on Pacific Avenue, offers a consistently enjoyable experience for those seeking fresh, quality sandwiches, salads, and gourmet provisions. The restaurant offers a variety of dishes and treats, including the popular tomato and mozzarella sandwich, sunshine dream smoothie, and Northern sandwich. Their desserts, such as brownies, are also a hit with customers.
What truly sets Taste apart is its commitment to quality ingredients and thoughtfully crafted menu items. The sandwiches are a real draw, always fresh with unique combinations and a famous house dressing that elevates even a simple turkey and cheddar. The bread is consistently good, and the fillings are generous. Beyond sandwiches, the salads are fresh and vibrant, and they often have delicious homemade soups.
The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting, though it can get busy, especially during lunch rushes and peak season. The dual concept of a specialty food market and a cafe is a nice touch, allowing customers to pick up gourmet snacks, wines, and gifts alongside their meal. This makes it a great spot to grab a picnic for the beach or supplies for your rental.
Service is generally efficient and friendly, even when the lines are long. The staff is knowledgeable about the products and can offer recommendations. It's clear they take pride in what they offer.
While the food quality is high, the prices can be on the higher side for what is essentially a sandwich shop, which might deter some for everyday dining. Also, at times, especially when very busy, the service can feel a little rushed, and finding a table can be a challenge. However, for its reliable quality, delicious sandwiches, and convenient location near the Virginia Beach waterfront, Taste is a highly recommended stop.
