Tasty Place

Yeah this place is a must-go. My partner and I visited Shanghai & Chongqing recently and this blows everything we had out the water.- the fish is so fresh you could taste it- the portions are generous- the seasoning is perfect. You can drink the soup without feeling overwhelmed- the spicy mala numbing flavor is exactly what you'd get in ChinaThis restaurant is a gem.

[Ambiance] - When I step into the resturant. My first impression was a family type style resturant. Many chinese decoration and quite roomy. 4/5[Service] - Great Service. My food came at a reasonable time. While I ordered some soup the waitress asked if I need some bowls with that. Very Polite and welcoming 4/5[Food] - 4/5House Special Beef Noodle Soup 4/5"TASTE" - Rich Broth w chill oil, Thick Noodles (Udon-like) soaked in a lot of broth had a nice bouncy texture and very flavorful. (I dont recommend this noodle for the Zha Jiang Mian however) Strong flavors and Seasoned well. "SMELL" - Spicy meaty broth aroma "PRESENTATION" - Looked appetizing. The soup had this this spicy red color to it. I'm glad I ordered mild spice. I was still able to taste after eating it. The dish is topped w fusion peanuts and minced meat House Dumplings w Fish and Celery (Steamed) 4/5"TASTE" - Delicious. Simple but yet tasty. Came out nice and hot. Seasoned quite well. Its just melts in your mouth with each dumpling. Everything from the dough to the fish and celery fused very well together. "SMELL" - Nothing Particular"PRESENTATION" Dumpling looked nice a plumpy. Served with a chilli oil sauce on the side. Aside from that nothing special Lamb Soup with intestines (Seasonal Menu on the wall) 4/5"TASTE" - Delicous rich broth. Taste like the broth has been boiled down for many hours. Seasoned well. There was assortment of intestines. "SMELL" - Nothing Particular "PRESENTATION" - Nice milky broth topped with some scallion. Additional comments - It was a cold day out. The Lamb soup was probably one of the better lamb soup I have tasted. Very nice on a cold day to warm up your body. Same for the Beef Noodle soup as well.

"I rarely write reviews, but this experience was too frustrating to ignore. My friend was set to start working at this restaurant on Friday at 5:00pm, as agreed on Tuesday. Then, out of nowhere, she gets a message on Thursday afternoon saying they didn't need her anymore. I mean, really? If you're running a business, basic professionalism and respect for people's time should be a given. My friend had already organized her entire week, working two jobs, only to be ghosted last minute. Beware of places like this--it's just plain inconsiderate and unprofessional."Chinese:"我一般很少写评论，但这次经历实在是让人太无语了。我的朋友周二被告知周五下午5点去上班，结果到了周四下午突然收到消息说不用去了？真是无语！如果你经营一间餐厅，最基本的职业素养和对别人时间的尊重总该有吧？我的朋友还调整了整个一周的时间，安排了两份工作，结果最后一刻被放了鸽子。这种行为真的很不负责任，大家注意一下这样的地方，实在太不专业了。"

This spot is a great find. Decent prices with many tasty chinese dish options. The eggplant was so good and very flavorful. The dumplings were very juicy. The food came out pretty quickly and the lady that helped us was very kind. Great spot!

Came here recently for a late lunch while I was in the area. Wanted to try a new place and was craving Chinese food so came here after finding it on Yelp. It was not too busy when we came and were seated immediately. The menu had a good selection but we decided on 3 items: the braised beef noodle soup, Dan Dan noodles and eggplant with garlic sauce.The standout was the eggplant with garlic sauce. It came out in a hot bowl and was cut thinner than usual, which I enjoyed as each piece had more of the sauce on it. The sauce was also super flavorful. The Dan Dan noodles came out and were soupier than expected. I am used to the drier sauces with more of a mala flavor but the Dan Dan noodles were not that spicy, which made it taste more like a noodle soup than a dan dan noodle.The braised beef noodle soup I was really looking forward to as there were alot of good reviews. However, the beef broth was rather sweet and the beef wasn't as tender as the usual beef noodle soup at my go to places. It was sadly our least favorite of the 3 items.

Still a positive experience, but my bar is where the dumplings in china are at. Also, they gave us the wrong dumpling but offered to replace

Good taste and good service.Will go back again.Recommend 火爆腰花(限量) Quick Fried Pig's Kidney（limited) and salt pepper tofu 椒盐豆腐

My friends like to get dumplings for takeout from this place so I decided to try Tasty Place for the first time. Jean who answered the phone was nice and took my order over the phone. She recommended their house dumpling (fish and chive) that she said got them in the Michelin guide so I ordered that along with many items marked as popular on their website. I liked their various dumplings, Old Beijing Zha Jiang Mian. hot and sour soup, mapo tofu (it's spicy), eggplant garlic sauce, and fish with flaming chili oil. Kung pao chicken and broccoli beef were decent too. The lao ma won ton comes in a numbing spicy sauce and was good, but it needs to be eaten right away because the won ton wrappers break when they're in the sauce for too long.I saw they had two websites and she said spicyhome520.com is their current website which takes online orders. The older website had an offer for free wang lao ji herbal tea if you spend over a certain amount which she honored. She gave us 4 cans of herbal tea for free, free eggrolls, and increased the portion of the hot and sour soup for us which normally feeds 2. I requested dishes to be less spicy, and they were for the most part except the braised seabass and tofu was salty.

I thought this place was decent, maybe 3.5-4 stars or so. We had three dishes:-Dan Dan noodles was really good. Noodles were on the thicker side and I really really liked the sauce they had here. It actually paired really well with the wontons that were a little bland. The dish overall wasn't too spicy. I would definitely get this again.-Spicy wontons. I thought this one was a little bland. I had to add some soy sauce and extra chili oil and then it tasted decent. Then I also tried the dan dan noodles sauce with them and that elevated it a lot!-tender beef flaming pot was ok. I thought this was more like mala xiang guo but it was mostly just beef and onion with not much else.-rice was extra.Service was fine with plenty of water refills.

We got the spicy beef tendon and squid in flaming pot. Both were really good. The fish with pickle mustard was just ok. Not my fav but overall this place deserve a Food came fast and service was good. Will come back!
