I am a healthy person with a normal digestive system but the next day, all hell broke loose, and I do mean loose. The food tasted o.k. but there was speculation on my part that something was just not right after the next morning. Thinking back during the ordering, the gal that took my order didn't even look at me in the face, like she was hiding something. Found out, something could have been off with the food.

Went there yesterday. Ordered the fried rice with chicken. When I got home and opened the bag…read morethere was also a chicken style soup as well. The food is plentiful, good and enjoyable. Opening the cover of the rice, you are presented with maybe 10 nice lean strips of chicken laying over the rice in a row. The rice itself has green peas, carrots, added. For $13.00, I felt like I got my moneys worth.

Black Bamboo has been our go-to Chinese spot since 2018. For years, the quality was impeccable and…read morethe food was genuinely phenomenal -- the kind of place you stop looking for alternatives because you already found the best one. Our usual order is pretty consistent: roast pork fried rice, General Tso's, egg rolls, white rice, chicken lo mein, and crab rangoon. We know exactly what it's supposed to taste like, which is why the last few orders have stood out. There's been a noticeable decline. The lo mein noodles seem smaller than they used to be. The fried rice came out sloppily cooked -- it honestly still tasted like plain white rice, with none of the wok flavor that used to make it worth ordering. And the General Tso's didn't taste fresh the way it always had; it came across as sitting rather than made to order. I'm writing this as a longtime customer, not a one-off complaint. We've spent a lot of money here over the better part of a decade because the food earned it. I'm hoping this is a temporary dip -- a kitchen change, a busy stretch, something fixable -- and that the quality comes back to what it was. We'd love to keep ordering.

Went to Sichuan Alley again after a long hiatus. Service was good, food took a little while to come…read moreout but for the most part was delicious. The only thing I did not enjoy was the flavor of the dan dan mien has changed- it had a much stronger mala flavor than the last time I had it, which made it a harder to eat and enjoy. The noodles were extremely thin so I wonder if their current recipe for the sauce is more suitable for a thicker and less absorbant noodle. I enjoy mala but this definitely felt much less balanced than what we had here previously. Besides the mala being a little overpowering, our other dishes and drinks came out great and we were satisfied with our meal.

Hmmm.... Good but not good enough. First off: The prices on…read moretheir online menu doesn't match the prices at the restaurant, be aware. All items are $2 to $3 more expensive in restaurant. Crazy/Drunken noodles are not: They're Chinese Chow Foon, and they weren't that good. Couldn't eat half of it. Scallops in garlic sauce? Avoid The scallops had a funny taste. Stale? Bleh.... And the icing on the cake: The only waitress got into a yelling contest with one of the employees. (owner?). They were screaming at each other and everyone in the dining room could hear it... It reminded me of some episodes of Kitchen Nightmare. I was expecting Gordon Ramsay to come out any minute, but no. Once was enough. Plenty of other (hopefully better) options less than 5 minutes from there.

This is the Chinese restaurant that sets the bar for all others…read more Warmly greeted upon entry, my neighbor and I were seated quickly for lunch Our waitress came over with glasses of water and promptly took our drink order Looking around I saw the tight ship this manager and owner run. This was a well prepared lunch crew. The order was put in for two egg rolls, as an appetizer My neighbor ordered the lemon chicken, which included hot and sour soup I ordered the garlic chicken, along with wonton soup The soups arrived almost immediately, and shortly thereafter came the two spring rolls. The wonton soup was perfect. Two delicate wontons, stuffed with pork, in a chicken broth that was not salty whatsoever. My neighbor said the hot and sour soup was some of the best she ever had The spring rolls were on point, slightly crispy, amazing flavor, and a perfect choice to start to the lunch experience The dinners arrived, and I saw that the beef and garlic sauce also included water chestnuts, broccoli, and a delicious brown sauce that was not too overpowering. The beef and garlic was a perfect combination with these vegetables and the gravy over rice. The rice was just perfectly sticky and delicious. Explosions of different flavors hit this dish perfectly. This was one of the best Chinese dishes I've had in a long time. Tasting the lemon chicken, the chicken was pounded extremely thin, deep-fried and served with lemon slices over the top. It was very nice. The restrooms were spotless. The enjoyment experience was off the charts as far as the ambience, food presentations, the various tastes of the food, along with the prices The vibe was perfect. For Connecticut, this has to be one of the best Chinese restaurants in the state. In simple terms, the experience was perfect. Thank you Great Taste. You show Connecticut how restaurants (and small businesses) should be run.
