Tasty Place

We had good memories of this place from the last time we were in Chicago and stayed at the Spring Hill Suites next door. So when we were back in Chinatown this time, we had to stop by and get some boba from here.We remembered it being fresh and flavorful and that exactly what it was this time. We got strawberry and mango boba and it was made fresh for us. They use real fruit and you can taste it. Its a small place with counter service and the lady behind the counter was friendly. She let us know (even though we remembered from the last time) that it was a cash only place. Even though the place is small, it was clean and the tables and chairs were being put away. It was close to close o'clock and I am guessing they were getting done for the day. There were still a couple customers waiting for that takeout.We haven't been disappointed with their boba. Admittedly, we haven't tried anything else here. But the boba is spot on.

If you're craving rice rolls (cheung funn) with chicken & preserved turnip, this is THE place!!! It's a quaint little cafe with just a few tables. Their turnaround rare is usually great! I absolutely love their baby cakes (20 pieces) in a plastic bag ... these are a must try as a snack!!! I'm hooked! Their tomato pineapple fried rice is to die for!!I've been going for decades even when Covid hit!

Tasty Place is a small, but cozy and affordable place for food. It is cash only, but you won't need a lot to be filled c; They have a great rice box menu as well as traditional Chinese food takeout items. Also highly recommend their fresh soy milk! It is not too sweet and goes great with all the food. TIP: There is usually just one lady out front who takes all the orders, packs the food, serves, and cleans, so be patient with her and she'll take good care of you! TIP 2: You can virtually get any combo of foods in regards to meat and veggies for your rice boxes/ noodles. There might just be a small fee and you have to ask the lady (;

I love the crispy rice noodle crepe! They have very limited dim sum menu but their price is more affordable than others. The place is kind of self serve. You order and you can sit there and eat. This place accepts cash only. Most of the places are anyway in Chinatown. If you are going to Chinatown, make sure you have cash and comfortable shoes because it is fun to walk around. If you are in a big group, this is not the place to go but there are plenty others to go to. Hope you have a great adventure.

The menu at Tasty Place is extensive, with a wide range of dishes to choose from. I started with the hot and sour soup, which was perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. For my main course, I tried the orange chicken, and it was a revelation. The chicken was tender and juicy, with a tangy orange glaze that was simply delicious.What sets Tasty Place apart is the quality of their ingredients. The flavors are authentic and bold, with each dish expertly prepared to perfection.

Small little takeout place with a few tables. Cash only. The staff is friendly and the food is good. Prices have increased as all places have. But the serving size is worth it.

We got a couple bread and century egg congee for breakfast. The cage was PACKED. The food was still so good and the price is unbeatable for everything we got it cost us about 9 dollars and it filled us to the brim. It is as authentic as it gets. Cash only! Most of the item is in Chinese.

sooo good. this time I got the taro pineapple bun and the char siu pineapple bun. the top was the perfect taste and reminded me of home. the filling was not to sweet which u know is the best compliment for Asian food

Revisiting after a second reopening of dining rooms in 2021. Firstly, do not mistakenly step to the Tasty Place at 2339 S. Wentworth. You'll find there just a counter shop there with Chinese senior men hanging out there and smoking out front. But who knows maybe they've got good food there, but you've been warned.Get the address right and visit 2306 S. Wentworth and you'll be properly rewarded. Find a table, grab a menu to figure out what you want, and friendly staff (in English or my mashup of Canto/Mandarin/English) will come to you and take your order when you're ready.

This is a cafe, nothing fancy but the food was very good and tasty. The portions were generous and we were worried we had ordered too much food but since everything tasted so good, we finished everything.
