I stopped going to these last year. I found the portions to be just smaller versions of their big dishes. Not a deal, just ability to try smaller versions of multiple things. Chef's Table was the last straw as we were all starving after walking out.

I made a reso last weekend at Carino Reserva on 4th (did not participate). Spent $60/person tasting, and had an excellent 4 course meal that had both of us stuffed.

I think all those Taste events have become a marketing gimmick TBQH. They have people lining up to do it and adjust the portions accordingly to give the impression it is a good deal. No thanks.
