This was our second visit to Taste of Sichuan and the food was just as tasty as I remembered. The pot stickers are wonderfully meaty and tasty. The entrees are a very generous size so we overordered but have plenty for the next few days....The menu itself is very large and has many options - I think everyone can find something they would like to eat.More
I heard great things about this place so I was excited to try. Very busy for 1:30pm on a Saturday. Service was good. I got the hot chicken with fried rice and hot and sour soup. The soup was ok. Not much broth and had...lots of onions. The chicken was very good, not too much coating but enough to make it crispy. It was really spicy, very delicious though. The fried rice was just alright. I would come back!More
First off. The dumplings (pot stickers) are to die for!!!. These are not found in the frozen food section. You know the ones I mean. These are fresh, house made and filled with meaty filling. 8 for $11 and worth twice that. Whenever I come...the airport(I live on the coast), I stop for 3 orders of dumplings. Two for our dinner and 1 for the freezer. yummm. The other dishes are also great. Look to the "wild side" menu for the more traditional chinese favsMore
We ordered 3 dishes. Cashew chicken which was the best of the 3. It was small pieces of meat coated in something brown with cashews. I don’t know what part of the chicken it was because of the coating but it had a different taste...and texture than I’m used to. The stir fried prawns were ok, flavor was tasty but the prawns had a very weird texture as well, they had no “chew” to them, almost like they were so soft they dissolved in your mouth. I double checked they were cooked all the way through and they appeared to be, so not sure why the texture was off. They also had a slight smell like they were possibly soaked in something which could explain the texture issue. Lastly we ordered the Sichuan chicken. We love Sichuan food and we both were starving. It looked beautiful...We both ate just a couple bites thinking our first pieces of chicken were an anomaly and it would get better. It did not. I have no idea what kind of meat that was but it was like no chicken I’ve ever eaten. The meat had no texture like real chicken does. It had kind of a slimy coating. We each ate like 2-3 bites and tossed it. Their sauces and vegetables were ok, veges were crisp and plentiful but the chicken and shrimp were nothing I would ever order again. If you’ve ever eaten fast food chicken nuggets you will understand what I mean... it might technically be chicken parts mushed together to resemble the original but it most definitely did not have the texture of unprocessed chicken I am used to. I am giving them a 2 because the veges and flavors were good and they’re a small business trying to survive during a pandemic. If it were not a pandemic I would struggle to give them a 1 and I most definitely won’t be recommending it to friends...unless they’re vegetarian.More
had a business lunch at Taste Of Sichuan. more limited options at lunch, extremely busy. parking limited. very loud. The food was good. Large portions. The service was attentive.
Always very busy....broad menu....some authentic dishes...the hand shaven noodle are available in a number of dishes...fabulous...a must...Sichuan beef...Hunan Prawns in Black Bean sauce...many tofu offerings...overall if you’re in the Beaverton area and are looking for a better than average Chinese food experience I’d highly recommend...a trip to the Taste of Sichuan...More
We've been here several times before. This latest visit was a mid-week, late lunch and we were surprised by the poor quality of pot stickers and one of the main dishes. The pot stickers were incredibly tough and thick-skinned with virtually no taste. The dipping...sauce was little more than incredibly hot oil with chili seeds - not what we've had before which had flavor. I returned that order and the replacement, while noticeably fresher, still had the too-thick fibrous skin and no taste - and the same hot oil dip. This time we also tried a sweet and sour dish (pork) and the meat pieces were also overly tough and not particularly tasty. The meal was saved by the crispy chicken with hot garlic sauce which was was as good as we remembered and, overall, saved the meal.More
The food is fresh and tasty. Best cashew chicken and schezwan beef in town. Service is fast and friendly. The portions are huge. I always have plenty to take home for the next day. Prices are very reasonable. The place is usually busy but the...wait is short.More
We've been trying different restaurants that offer soup dumplings, and this was the third location in the area that we tried. The service was excellent (our cups of water never went below half-full), and the portions were huge for the price. We left with doggy...bags galore. The food was OK. Not bad, but not great. We didn't go for anything spicy, so if you like more spicy food, it might be better. Not being experts on asian/Chinese food, there wasn't anything that would convince us to go back except for the amount for the price. Again, it wasn't bad, just not the best we've eaten either. We would probably go back to either Tang Dynasty off of 185th, or Din Tai Fung at Washington Square Mall.More
This restaurant is amazing and there is always a long wait, so get there at the beginning of lunch time or the beginning of dinner time if you don't want to wait. The menu is quite large! Try the fish hot pot, it's amazing. The...sesame and rice dessert balls in sweet, rice wine are a great way to end the meal.More
