    Lunch menu
    Katie W.

    The food here is always phenomenal. While the service can be a bit slow, the flavor of every dish makes up for it. The egg rolls are the best I've have--crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The string beans chicken is one of my favorite dishes, and the chicken--no matter the dish--is always moist and packed with flavor. They have tables for parties of any size, and you can always find a table available for a walk-in meal.

    A10. Steamed Shanghai Dumpling

    Din Tai Fung dupe??? Possibly!! I was so happy to find some good dim sum in SLC! The dumplings were plump and thinly wrapped, the XLB were juicy and flavorful, and the wontons were delightful (if a little heave on the coriander)

    I have been pining for good authentic Chinese food since moving to Utah. Brothers Hotpot scratched that itch in Provo, and looks like Chinese Taste fills the bill in Salt Lake. They had a huge menu. I ordered hotpot bullfrog and boiled fish with sour cabbage and both were delicious. It's a Szechuan place with that mouth-numbing spice so be careful. They can reduce heat and my daughter & wife had conventional Lo mein dishes that weren't spicy at all. Service was good but barely knew English. I didn't mind

    Side order Chicken Lo Mein
    Sandy C.

    Christmas dinner. Hubs & I shared a dinner combo (Beef & Broccoli, soup, 2 small egg roll) with an extra order of the side Lo Mein. Now, I admit I'm EXTREMELY picky when it comes to Asian food. This didn't hit the spot for me. The Beef & Broccoli was a large portion for us to share came out cold and the sauce was very thick. Now, I have to admit, if we weren't sharing, I might have deviated and gotten something else. The soup was bland and the inside of the egg rolls were "mushy." The Lo Mein had about 3 pieces of chicken but the flavor was good. We arrived for our meal around 4pm, just before the dinner rush. By the time we left the place was hopping. Due to the crowd, service was a little slow. If I had to try this restaurant again, I would order a couple of different menu items that were not so "American Chinese."

    Delicious!!!! If you are a fan of Din Tai Fung, this is the closest we have come in Utah. We loved everything we got and are so excited to come back and try more dishes. You won't regret trying this place!!

    Came here with a party of 10. Service was quick and very helpful. We started with the soups, they were a little bland but they provided chili oil and soy sauce to add more flavor to it AND fried wonton chips to add to the soup. Then we had the Shanghai Dumplings, not much soup in them but it wasn't too bad. Surprisingly the sesame chicken was very good and the first plate cleaned at the table. The salt pepper shrimp had too much salt, however the shrimp was fried fairly well because the shell was crispy enough to also eat with the shrimp. The pork wonton in Chili sauce, those were not bad at all! The only issue I had with it was that there wasn't enough meat and too much wrap. THE STEAMED PORK BUN! Mmmmmmmmm pork to bun ratio was PERFECT! That was definitely the best hit!

    More like 3.5 stars. I was grocery shopping in the Chinatown Supermarket next door. It was dinner time so I went here to try out some of their homemade dumplings. It was the very beginning of dinner service so I had the place to myself. The interior was quite spaces. I ordered pork cabbage dumplings, pork chives dumplings, seafood siu mai, Shanghai dumplings, shrimp dumplings, and wonton in chili oils. Out of everything, I think the pork chives dumplings and the Shanghai dumplings are the best of the bunch with the most flavors. I wish they had some ginger with their dipping sauce for the Shanghai dumplings. I truly wish they have a special house dipping sauce for the dumplings to give them some oomph. The pork cabbage was pretty bland. The seafood siu mai was okay, on the small side. The shrimp dumpling was also okay. The wonton in chili oil...the chili oil lacks chili and the wonton was again okay with less meat that I would like. Service was quick so no complaints there. Not sure what it would be like during the dinner rush. The price was REALLY good for the amount of food that I had. The menu looks pretty big so I may go back and try some other dishes.

    Chicken with green bean and Black pepper beef dinner combo

    Great food and they serve generous portions! Good ambiance and server was friendly. The black pepper beef was my favorite

    This place was great overall. The atmosphere was chill and quiet. The bathrooms were clean and tidy. The food was good and tasty. I recommend the beef lo mein noodles. We tried the veggie egg rolls (8/10) , cream cheese wontons (7/10), sesame chicken (classic, but would try something different 8/10) , Mongolian beef (6/10), beef broccoli (8.5/10), chicken fried rice (7/10) , and beef lo mein (8.5/10). The service was great, a little slow at times but we were in no rush. I will be coming back and recommend you try it.

    My mother-in-law recommended this to me. I'm usually really hesitant when people recommend Chinese…read moreRestaurants to me. I'm not a big fan of the "Panda Express" tasting Chinese food. For starters, we ordered the Wor Wonton Soup. The broth was rich and hearty. The shrimps were large and plentiful. All the vegetables blended in with the flavors. I just wish the beef was a little more tender. A little marinade in baking soda would fix this. We ordered some chicken lettuce wraps. This has minced chicken, celery, bamboo shoots, and carrots. These are good by themselves but are best with hoisin sauce. I just wish the lettuce leaves were bigger. The Honey Walnut Shrimp was also good. The sauce had a nice blend of mayo, honey and lemon. It had a little too much breading for me but still tasted good. For $16.99, I wished there was a bit more shrimp. One thing I really appreciate - they GLAZE the walnuts! This is one of the few places that I actually like the sauce and they glaze the walnuts! The Crispy Beef is definitely my favorite. In fact, I think this is better than the one I get from Red Maple. It was not too sweet and had just the right amount of heat. Again, I really wish they would marinate the beef in baking soda to soften it up. The last dish we ordered was the Garlic Chicken. The server forgot to put the order in for this dish and there was a rush to get it out to us. They forgot to put garlic in this dish so wee sent it back. It was perfect when it came back. This place is fast becoming our go-to-place for Chinese Food. It's was a nice surprise and I'll can't wait to try the other dishes!

This tastes like mom's kitchen if mom had a high flamed gas stove. The dishes that benefited from that smoky hot wok flavor had it. I was so excited to eat I forgot to take pics of all the dishes at the table. Green beans with garlic was so tasty, I finished the leftovers the same night, I remembered to take a photo in the takeout container. The cauliflower (I don't know the actual name but it's stir fried, spicy and comes with peppers) had wok hei and I couldn't stop eating it. Beef rolls is the sophisticated auntie of the scallion pancake. Think of it like an asian burrito with thin sliced beef, fresh scallion and cilantro, and a touch of hoisin all hugged together with a crispy tasty scallion pancake. The shredded potato tastes like the best potato salad that isn't your picnic potato salad. The shredded potatoes were quickly blanched then stir fried preserving the crunch and crispness similar to al dente pasta. Seasoning was on point. The homiest flavor came from the stewed short rib. The rib pieces were braised in a soy and star anise sauce like what you find in Taiwanese beef noodle soup. The peels potatoes were cut rustically and just cooked through and not mushy. Authentic flavors and freshness like this is so so hard to come by. I can taste the quality of the ingredients used. One tip I have for selecting authentic food is by looking at the customers. If the customers are all Asian eating at an Asian restaurant, you know the food is going to be good. Service was 10/10, waitress was super polite and stopped by to chat with us about the food and SLC. I am from out of town but I grew up eating at NYC Asian restaurants and this is as good as if not better. If you happen to stop by the largest Costco in the world, make a pit stop here to refuel after all those steps.

The look of the restaurant inside has changed a few times. when I was there last there was a casual seating area at the back of the restaurant. There were people there waiting for takeout orders.

I always have to order the cold cucumber salad. It is a great accompaniment to any dish. I added the peanuts to the cucumbers because I really like them together so if you order the cucumbers, they will not come with peanuts. It is a strange request, but they accommodated me with no problem. They had a case at the front of the restaurant with grapes and strawberries, skewered and coated in a crunchy sugary coating. It was a little bit messy, but I did not mind because it tasted so good. The strawberries were super sweet, fresh and juicy with a thin, sweet crunchy shell. I will try the grapes next time.

    Disappointing Experience - Food Quality & Service…read more I've been to Mi La Cai Noodle House before, but unfortunately, my most recent experience was very disappointing. I ordered the wonton soup, and the pork wontons did not taste right to me. I let the gentleman who was helping us know about the issue, and he told me, "Let me see with my manager what I can do for you." To be clear, I wasn't asking them to take the soup off my bill or give me anything for free. I simply wanted to see if they could provide a little more meat so I could finish my bowl. I thought that was a reasonable request, especially since I had already explained that the pork wontons didn't taste right. Unfortunately, the gentleman never came back to our table, and the manager never stopped by or spoke with us at all. We ended up paying the full bill, and no one even apologized or offered any kind of resolution. When the host later asked how everything was, I explained that the wonton soup wasn't as good as I expected. She simply said, "Oh, sorry." While I understand that mistakes happen, it felt like a very dismissive response, especially after we had already brought the issue to their attention. I honestly feel like the food quality at this restaurant has gone downhill. What disappointed me even more was the lack of customer service and follow-through. If a customer takes the time to politely bring up an issue, I would expect someone from management to at least come to the table and address it. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be coming back. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously because I used to have a much better impression of the food and service.

Conveniently, we are in town for a couple days and our hotel is just right down the road. It was only right to mark this joint off my SLC food list. We came in around 5 and it was empty.

He dropped off a couple menus and got some waters started for us. It was my MIL's first time trying Vietnamese cuisine. It took her a minute to breeze over the menu. As much as I wanted everything, I started off with a cup of the hot and sour soup. For dinner I got the black bean shrimp with veggies. My MIL decided on the bun thit nuong with cha gio. Last minute my MIL decided on some hot and sour soup too. They were dropped off first and it was perfect for hot soup on this cold winter day. The broth was thick and flavorful. It had hearty pieces of tofu, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. The soup had a good heat to it. The heat didn't hit you right away, it gradually got spicier the more you ate it. My mouth was burning towards the end of my bowl. It was good but it could have been a bit more sour. My plate of black bean shrimp and veggies came out hot! The veggies looked fresh and colorful. The shrimp were plump. And the sauce smelled flavorful and salty from the fermented black bean. You can tell my dish just came out fresh from the wok. The veggies and shrimp were so hot! The shrimp were perfectly cooked. The zucchini, green peppers and bamboo shoots were my favorite. All the veggies were covered in sauce, probably the best way to eat your veggies. I ate the whole plate! I'm not the biggest fan of water chestnuts and I even polished those off. My dish was fantastic. Jay did a great job serving us tonight. He was patient and attentive.

The egg rolls were a little different from what we'd consider traditional but they were good. I also had the sweet n sour soup which was good.
