Taste Bud 1, Inc.: Reviews & Ratings
Havent had it in a while was still great
Havent had Taste buds since 2015 maybe and when I say my Philly was on point... babie it was just how I wanted it. I asked for my steak Philly to be on a Texas toast Bread.Try it yall and Without any problems they definitely didnt disappoint. Food still tastes the same. Coming from a Chef I can appreciate that. Thank you!
Good food. City needs to get this area some bike racks for sure, and put some picnic tables in that park nearby. This doesnt reflect on the business, just would be nice to have somewhere to eat outside without balancing a Styrofoam tray on my legs.
I have been coming here for about 20 years. They used to have the dining room open. Still good food.
Im from Grand Rapids but have a lot of family in Chicago. Taste Bud was highly recommended to me and they did not disappoint! I got the jerk Philly cheese steak and it was perfection! Next time Im in town I am heading back to try the jerk ...
Hands down the best but then fries need mild sauce not bba
My coworker is from Chicago and she took me here for lunch yesterday. Amazing Philly Cheese Steaks. The fries are hand cut fresh to order and are covered in some sort of delicious tangy BBQ sauce. The meat on the sandwich was nice and hot and just the right amount of cheese. Nice job guys! 1010
The food is always soooo good. I got the chicken philly once and havent ordered anything else in a long time becuase its hypontizing I really love it. And who doesnt love mild sauce ... The cook and cashier are always so kind and really nice people love talking to them whenever i get the chance. ...
