Very mediocre food overall and I highly suggest you eat somewhere else…read more Soup dumplings: the filling was like a big fat meatball. Broth was good but the meat inside wasn't super flavorful and it was HELLA dense. No balance whatsoever Chive pancakes: errr definitely better but she was a little pasty looking. Definitely needed some more time in the pan because it was limpy af. Filling was normal. The sauce? + meatball + noodles dish: errrrr DEF PASS. I don't know how to even describe it, like the meatball was the same meat as the pork dumplings?!?!?!? LOL. The sauce or broth was SUPER thick. Not exactly light and refreshing and the flavors weren't it either. Felt like a mosh pit of things lying in the kitchen The fried rice: The ONLY redeeming quality. It has bacon in it and was super flavorful and rich. Downside is it's a bit too greasy but flavor ig??? Taro buns: your regular buns, not too sweet. Doubt it's made in house tho LOL.

Asian Bistro is under new owners and management with a grand re-opening last month. I'm happy to…read morereport that the service, food and interior of the restaurant meet all our needs wonderfully The menu still offers a variety Asian Fusion cuisines from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, and Vietnamese. We went with sushi on our recent visit and were not disappointed. Our sushi came with complimentary miso soup. As previously, your order is placed at the counter, you receive a buzzer, and then patiently wait for your aromatic food to arrive. I'm not sure if the menu has changed substantially or if there is a new chef. On previous visits I've had the Chinese, Korean, and Thai. We ordered the Krapow Chicken, Pad Thai, Bulgogi, and Drunken Noodles The Pad Thai, Bulgogi and drunken noodle were all great. The Krapow was good, but too salty for my taste.

They also can't adjust spicy so they gave me oil instead. 4/5 for this dish. Considering the dirty plates, strange service (nice ppl though!), and dryness of chicken, I have to give 3*.

I thought it was a restaurant but it ended up with a small restaurant within an Asian grocery store. There were few seats to sit and eat . There were few more restaurants next to it . Not much of vegetarian options . Everything was meat . The only vegetarian they had was mapo tofu and that's what I had to get . I asked them if they made general tsos tofu but they don't make it . I ordered spicy . They took about 10 mins to make which isn't bad . I had it to go . Costed about 12-13$ which was nominal . When I tried opening it , the container wasn't closed properly and the sauce leaked all over the bag. Wish they do better job with the packing . Taste of mapo tofu was good . Sauce tasted spicy and good . Tofu was a bit spongy and had no crispness. I thought it will be fried like general tsos tofu. Rice quantity was ok. Good overall but I wish they had more options for vegetarians .. 3.5 stars .

Where do I start?…read more On Friday we stopped in for lunch around 12:30. We were greeted nicely and bought waters with lemon as we asked. I ordered won ton soup, shrimp with vegetables and fried rice. My gluten free friend brought a new bottle of gf soy sauce. She ordered rice noodles with vegetables and added tofu. She chose not to have soup and asked for her won ton to be packed to go. The waiter whose English wasn't so good very nicely took the bottle with him to the kitchen so her food would be prepared with it. I noted the fork at my place was not clean and moved it aside. Next he brings me a soup plate with broth and 2 big doughy won ton. Neither the broth not the won ton were more than tepid. The won ton was not to my liking. I took one bite and pushed my bowl aside. Next the entrees neither were more than barely warm! My shrimp were a bit smaller than quarter sized, broccoli was nice and the rice too, but the sauce had absolutely no flavor. No flavor and cold. The rice noodle dish was fine but flavorless and lacked the vegetables she ordered. Usually she would tell the server that she can have garlic and ginger, but she didn't. And the food was not hot at all. The place was busy with just the one waiter. He very nicely brought the won ton soup to go for her when he brought the check. He also wrapped all the leftovers to go. We did not complain because everything deserved a complaint. We had also lost interest. This experience did not get only 1 star, because of the waiter who was the only one in the busy restaurant. He was doing his best, but the kitchen needs to do its best. We tipped him nicely, and deposited the take home won ton in the trash can down the sidewalk away from the restaurant.

The lunch specials that run M-F from 11:00-2:00 is so so good. the 土豆丝 is absolutely to die for. the restaurant may be a bit of a walk from main campus especially if you are not coming from the engineering quad, but wow, is the walk worth it every time. the free 蛋花汤 that comes with every lunch special entree order is great, and each of the specials are very affordably priced. I highly recommend the rattan pepper fish, the kung po chicken, and the lamb with cumin. outside of these options, I also highly recommend trying their pork belly entree (if you are coming for dinner) or their egg tofu dish. prices are not as good for dinner portions but I think if you are eating potluck style with friends it's worth it. service is solid - the staff make sure your waters are filled and that you are waited on properly. food comes out decently fast and the bathroom at this establishment has always been clean when I visit (probably over 20-30 times at this point) SC House also does a great job offering catering discounts to student groups so that aspect also deserves a shoutout.
