Huge, grisly chunks of dark meat. I asked for extra crispy and got extra wiggly instead.

This is for the 5/5 star jjangmyun. I kid you not I've been back 3 times for just the black bean noodles here and the tangseyuk (sweet and sour pork). Black bean noodles: The sauce is thick, it does not liquify like other Korean jjangmyun places and really sticks to the noodles. The noodles they use are always super delicious with the right bite and don't easily get soggy (I think it's hand made). Even after leaving this in the fridge for 3-4 days it still tasted amazing infact-IT TASTED BETTER (don't judge my decisions). Sweet and sour pork aka tangseyuk: I'm usually super traditionalist with it comes to the batter of fried stuff, and I'm always super team rice flour or potato flour especially when it comes to this dish. BUT WOW. THIS was sooo crispy and it stayed crispy for a while. The meat cuts are also tender and well balanced with marbled fattiness. Not like other places which use super lean porkchop cuts. Which I dislike. The handmade dumplings here are meaty and hit the spot after a long day. Overall this play slays regardless of its simple decor, they know what they are doing with these noodles and I pray they never change the recipe.

The HIGHS: - Honey walnut shrimps - large and crispy, good portion, not too sweet, fair price- Pork pan fried dumplings - decent size, crispy bottom, flavorful pork filling that goes well with the chives. you get A LOT for what you pay for- Black bean noodles (jjajangmyeon) were more savory than sweet compared to Korean places (which I prefer) The MIDS:- Stir fry seafood noodles - I like how it included scallops and shrimp, but a little salty The LOWS:- Slower service during peak hours. Had to 40+ mins during Father's day weekend CONCLUSION: - Solid no frills traditional Chinese food served family style to share. Beware long wait times during dinner time/weekends/holidays.

Amazing lunch meal deal!! Basically a full entree size that came with fried rice and a spring roll for $13! It was all delicious and hit the spot. The batter on the squid was a little denser than I'd like but the flavor was right, and again such a good deal. Will def try to come again for dinner to try more of their Korean food.

We went there Sunday for lunch. The food there seems cheaper than other Chinese restaurants in the neighborhood. We ordered steamed pork dumplings, house special fried rice and seafood soup noodles. The dumplings are ok. Lots of meat and bland. They give you special sauce for dipping. Fried rice is very good. There's something in it that makes it taste better than others. The seafood noodles are good. Lots of shrimps, clams and scallops in it. The noodles are slightly chewy that we really enjoy it.

A hidden gem! I've been looking for a Korean-Chinese spot in Portland, and this place is phenomenal! Although it's right next to 82nd, it's not very flashy, so I've often driven by and always missed it. They have a small parking lot, but when I went, it wasn't super busy so we were able to get a spot pretty easily. The inside of the restaurant definitely brings me back to my childhood of old Chinese restaurants that have a long history. Service here is very sweet and very fast.They have an English menu and a Korean menu, with some slightly different items. I highly recommend looking at other reviews and pictures to help you determine what you want because some of my favorites are on the Korean menu! My boyfriend and I ordered their tangsuyook, jjamppong, jjajjangmyeon, and honey walnut shrimp. After ordering, we were given some side dishes of radish and kimchi, which were delicious. Everything we got was phenomenal. The tangsuyook was crispy, and I'm so glad they put the sauce on the side. The sauce also had veggies in it, which I loved. The jjamppong wasn't too spicy and had generous portions of seafood. The jjajjangmyeon was hearty and the sauce was delicious. And, the honey walnut shrimp was crispy, saucy, and had the perfect amount of creaminess. I would love to come back here with a bigger group to try some of their other menu items and share the delicious food!

This place has the worst jjajangmyun!They precook the sauce in a pot before they open for business and they mix the sauce with noodles before it's served! Their jjajangmyun was soooopp "SALTY" it was not edible but nevertheless I paid for it before leaving!The best place for jjajangmyun is the Taipei Noodle Haus on NE Halsey Blvd where they actually cook the sauce on a wok! As you can see in the picture, this is how it's supposed to be served and the choonjang/black bean sauce when cooked it changes color from black to brown and brings out its unique flavor, when you cook it inside a pot on top of a stove the sauce stays black and no flavor!

Chinese Delicacy serves Korean Chinese cuisine, the only one I've heard of in the Portland metro area.It's a family owned business, the staff speak Mandarin, Cantonese and English. The waitress was very nice and food came out quickly. There's definitely lots of regulars that stop by for take out. I ordered their pork dumplings and the black bean noodles (炸酱面 -zhajiangmian) with pork, they also offer it with seafood. The meal came with a side of kimchi which was nice. The pork dumplings had a good amount of filling and looks like there were chives in it. The wrapper wasn't too thick and the dipping sauce for it was nice. The main reason I came here was to try their zhajiangmian as I don't see it that often in Chinese restaurants. Since they are a Korean Chinese restaurant, I hoped it would be good, and it was. There was a lot of sauce and the noodles were chewy, long but delicious. Good amount of veggies in the sauce with pork. The cucumber helped give it a nice freshness and crunch.

Netflix had a show with this dish so I'm glad I found it. It's the bean paste soup on their menu. The dumplings in spicy chili oil appetizer was excellent--it's almost a meal by itself.

Loved every dish we got here! Everything was made super fresh and came out piping hot. Was pleasantly surprised at how not oily their food was either, eventhough most of them was fried or stir-fried. The flavors were also well-balanced, not overly salty. Portion was great for sharing as well.Noodles ans dumplings are homemade and you can taste it. Really vouche for their pork dumplings, thin wrapper and juicy filling. Jajangmyeon also really hit the spot with the smoky wok taste and fresh seafood. The best dish still went to the Peking Style Sweet & Sour Pork, ask for the sauce on the side so you can have crispy tender pork throughout the whole meal!Really fell in love with this place. Super casual and homey ambience inside. One lady sort of served everyone; she's very kind. Service was fast.We will return!
