Great Chinese restaurant love the springs rolls they are the best in town, make sure you order the sweet and sour sauce on the side. Their chicken fried rice is also good and they give a generous portion. Friendly staff and if you order Togo your food will be packaged nicely and there is hardly any waiting time.

Had another great meal. Their Lunch specials really hit the spot with the appetizer and soup added in. Hard working folks who open Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. But note they're closed from 2 pm - 4 pm.

Good food, can't complain. Chicken in the fried rice was a little dry. The egg drop soup is not thick, which is normally a concern of mine but it was good.

I've been a fan of Formosa for close to 20 years but since moving away from the Memphis area I haven't had the opportunity to visit. Now back in Memphis for the weekend and stopped in. This restaurant is now better than I ever. The lunch specials we tried today was sweet and sour chicken, sesame chicken and beef and broccoli. All 3 entrees were a 10 out of 10. Great Formosa customer service and atmosphere to go along with great food. I highly recommend if you're in the area. Wish I had pics to show but we ate it all.

The green pepper beef was amazing! The service was great! I highly recommend this restaurant. For lunch, they give you a piece of chicken and spring roll. The egg drop soup is hot and tasty and the crispies are fresh. I love Asian food and was extremely satisfied!

My family and I have' always loved Formosa's food. And it's consistently delicious. Dishes that we've eaten for years still taste wonderful. The staff is always friendly. We often do take-out. But the ambiance of the restaurant is very attractive and pleasant.
