The Tasty Table

THE ABBEY IS A HIDDEN GEM INSIDE THE TASTY TABLE!I am so excited that Murfreesboro finally has a place where food and overall experience is the core of the restaurant. And when we arrived to the tasty table we discovered that it was closed but the Abbey Pub & Coffee House was still serving food. Let me begin by saying Austin is by far one of the nicest human beings I've ever met and was a staunch champion of the Chef and her expertly curated menu. The Monkey Bread is a the best I've tasted & adds a unique touch by having four sections with different flavors. Herbs & cheese adorn the top of this appetizer & with the garlic & marinara dipping sauces this makes for a starter that the entire table will fight over. So much so we bought an extra batch to go. I ordered the Beer Battered Mahi Mahi with beer battered asparagus & I can honestly say this is the most delectable fish I'd ever tasted. The batter is fried to perfection until it's flaky, golden/brown. The Mahi Mahi is so juicy, which is a hard task because often times restaurants overcook the fish. Not The Abbey...you can tell the chef(s) take pride in each dish. And I've never had fried asparagus & I can honestly say this will be my new go to over fried green beans. The batter gives the asparagus just the right amount of sweetness they need to take a relatively boring veggie to the next level. My mother ordered the Pasta. I'm not a pasta eater but I surprisingly look over my mothers plate. The sauce was so flavorful...savory with a hint of sweet that makes for a boatload of fireworks on your tastebuds. It's quite delicious. My only request would be to the option add a protein like chicken or salmon BUT honestly it doesn't need a thing. Here's a secret...Order the Flybird...it's an amazing take on a margarita...it uses wine instead of tequila. Thank me later. Overall my Abbey experience is easily my new favorite restaurant in Murfreesboro and when I come home to visit my parents this will be my go to spot. I cannot wait to see this gem of a food experience to expand!

Bug with wings found in one of our catered lunch box salads. Owner asked us not to order with her again. Told us we had no common sense when we elected not to eat the other salads included in our order. We had concerns of other bugs to be found or cross contamination as all of the meals would have been made together. Would not recommend due to poor customer service and lack of ownership around the situation. You decide for yourself.

After having two catered meals, I was not impressed. The first was a broccoli casserole that as a fiend said, had too much sour cream or cream cheese. The next event brought out lasagna. Pasta was overcooked and mushy. Not much in between the layers of pasta and too salty. It tasted like a bad version of Chef Boyardee canned pasta. Cookies for dessert looked store bought. The salad and bread were good.Not my favorite and I don't understand all the five star reviews. They don't rate in my book.

WOW! We had THE BEST experience working with Tasty Table on our Annual State Conference & Awards Dinner! Taking on 3 lunches, 1 Dinner, and a dessert social hour for 200+ people in 3 days is no small feat, but Jaqueline and team went ABOVE and BEYOND to ensure everything was planned & executed with ease AND the food was DELICIOUS! Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience and helping ensure we had a successful conference! image001.png

People have a right to leave a review. They have a right to be honest about their experience. That's what these platforms are for...."information". The owner of this establishment has been extremely forthcoming in her attacks on reviews she doesn't like, from honest patrons who have given her establishment a chance. I know from experience she doesn't treat some of her staff any better either. I think it's completely unacceptable to attack innocent patrons for leaving honest reviews. This very same person has said she loves criticism and advice because it makes her "evaluate", and uses both as tools for growth! I suggest she use her patrons' reviews as tools for growth! If it's too hot in the kitchen, best get out of it!

This place is amazing! Nicely decorated and comfortable dining area. Food was wonderful! I had the vegetable soup and a blackberry bacon grilled cheese sandwich. We had business at the courthouse- this was within walking distance (right across the street). Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful space and incredible food. The staff was top notch and the food was outstanding. The best meal we had in Murfreesboro!!!

Just had catered lunch. Food was so fresh. Everything was personalized and perfect. Fantastic!!!

I can honestly say everytime I have been here I have had something so delicious! Today was no different. I have been trying the pescatarian diet for a weeks. Tasty table has a black bean wrap that I had to try, man was it so good! I picked it up and it was warm which was such a pleasant surprise. There were plenty of flavors going on in the wrap and it hit all the taste buds. I had a side of hummus and carrots with it, which is such a healthy option. I will definitely get the wrap again!

This pains me to write because I'm big into supporting small businesses, but when the owner was this bad it deserves to be called out.We use Tasty Table for catering at work. Last week one of my employees found a large bug in her greek salad. It was covered in dressing, so clearly had been in there for awhile.We immediately called the lady we deal with to place the orders, she was so nice and apologetic and told us she'd contact the owner. She also said they'd refund us the price of the salad, and I kindly requested they refund the whole order. To be frank, none of us wanted to eat our food not knowing where it had now been prepared. I offered to still pay for the delivery charge, but asked that the 6 sandwiches and salads be refunded. She said she'd call the owner and get back with us.About 15 minutes later, the owner called back and so nasty to us! Said we needed to 'have some common sense' that the lettuce was organic, justifying why the bug was in there....WHAT? I could not believe it! Said it was completely ridiculous we were asking for a full refund, and that we were no longer customers of there's and not to call back or ever place an order again. We have used them for catering for office events MANY times over the past year. I probably would have continued to use them, but the owner was so mean and rude, never again. As a small business owner, just take accountability, refund us the $90 or whatever it was and let's move on. We have given them a lot of business, but I was so disheartened and even if we wanted to, we apparently can never order from there again.
