A small, but very select menu, wee-executed. Very good wine list. Exquisite and graciously accommodating service. Absolutely nothing to complain about!
This is one of the best restaurants in California. The foie gras (no longer available), the blue cheese maccaroni, the salads and the entrees are all utterly amazing. My wife and I go there at least once every two months, and it is a place where I take clients, family and friends. Parking is very limited. Nancy Wilhelm has an absolute winner here!
Another mediocre restaurant OC. If your taste level is high, and are used to and enjoy eating at places like Bazaar (LA), Providence (LA) , Studio (Laguna Beach), French Laundry (Napa) Tabu will be like eating at McDonalds, so don't have high hopes. If you think California Pizza Kitchen and Cheesecake Factory are the best restaurants in the world (which are much better than Tabu Grill) then you will like Tabu Grill. A waste of space.
Really good food. I like to get the small plates and split them with a date. That way you sample many different things without filling up.
Excellent food in a tiny place. As close to one of those tiny, excellent San Francisco high end neighborhood joints as you can find on OC.
