This particular souffle is both overbaked and underseasoned.

Variety

This relentlessly mediocre ensemble dramedy features several of the least compelling dinner guests in recent memory.

Nothing truly creates any emotional waves, and little seems at stake, no matter what potential disaster might seem to be in the offing.

Transparent and schematic, Tasting Menu is one of those films that chooses not to hide its hand. [Full review in Spanish]

This petit bourgeois offering is as unabashedly pretentious as it is stilted, attempting to jackdaw cinematic magic via food porn and various romantic clichés.

Rated: 1/5

Not sure why it didn't work for me. Story didn't ring true?

Between trying to be a film about food and a film about love, this one got lost

I love well-done movies about food. While this was somewhat formula about the restaurant and its patrons, it was still enjoyable and I loved seeing the food preparation.

a lot of teasing appetisers but this formulaic degustation menu leaves expectant diners/watchers feeling empty in their bellies, even after a long series of (dis)courses.

Sadly, my eyes weren't given a chance to enjoy noteworthy food preparations nor presentations and my eager taste buds sank under the watchful eyes of belligerent "coast guards".
