    This place is disgustingly filthy. The service is horrible. The restaurant looked like this while the server sat in the dining area

    Chinese Pancake with Scallion
    Steph Q.

    Celebrated my mom's birthday a few weeks ago and her one request was Hong Kong Style crispy noodles. Tai Pan House was one of the only places that distinctly came up on the Yelp search with this style of noodles, so we took a chance and ordered our dinner from here for take out. They did not disappoint. The food was good, especially the crispy noodles, and the service was friendly. They made a strong first impression. Tai Pan House is located in a small shopping center off of Archibald Avenue. The restaurant occupies its own building within the center but shares plenty of free parking with the other businesses. As noted above, we ordered our food for takeout. We called the order in and the time they estimated for pickup was reasonable and accurate. Our food was ready upon our arrival. Although we took the order to go, the food remained warm despite the drive home. Our order consisted of - Chinese Pancake with Scallion - Orange Chicken - Honey Walnut Shrimp - House Special Hong Kong Style Chow Mein - Shrimp Fried Rice Although we ordered takeout, the portions for the dishes were very generous. The price point for the meal was also very reasonable. Our favorite items were the Honey Walnut Shrimp and Hong Kong Style Chow Mein. Both were tasty and very fresh. The Chinese Pancake with Scallion was good, but very greasy. We would steer clear of this item in the future. The Orange Chicken was plentiful, but several pieces tasted like they have been prepared from earlier in the day. Overall, we did enjoy our meal from Tai Pan House and would visit them again if we were in the area or if we had a craving for their Hong Kong Style Noodles. Definitely, a solid option for authentic Chinese food in the area.

    Some sort of shrimp egg flour soup with zero salt or seasoning.

    Are you kidding me? I was CRAVING some Chow Fun and ordered it with beef. I don't know if the woman who took my order was confused but it should be pretty cut and dry of what basic Beef Chow Fun is. She told me the extra container is what you pour over the noodle. I was like...what? Usually you don't have a separate container to mix in the noodles. I thought it was some new thing they had going, but I was tired and just wanted to get home. So anyway I get home and I open it up to find PLAIN noodles with NO BEEF, and no seasoning! Then there is a container of Egg Flower Soup with Shrimp. The person I wanted to share it with has a seafood allergy! What a fail! I feel like they just slapped something together and brought it out because they didn't know what beef chow fun meant. It's literally on the menu. How do they not know what's on their own menu? Unless I just got someone else's order, but she told me that I poured what's in the container over the noodles so it had to have been mine. I spent $18 on this and I feel completely cheated. Look at the photos I took of it. She wanted me to pour egg flower soup over plain noodles and said that this is the chow fun?

    I love the food variety there - it's authentic Chinese cuisine, mouthwateringly tasty and delicious. But keep your guard up; those clumsy cooks can screw up and leave bits of steel cleaning pads in your meal. It's not on purpose, but damn, watch what you're shoving down your throat.

    Frogs legs
    Kevin B.

    I ordered the frog legs and shrimp fired rice. I've eaten frog legs all over the country, and these were by far the biggest and most flavored Ive had to date. Highly recommend this place if you looking for them. They were a little pricey compared to the other places I've went to but the size of the dish explains the price. Customer service could use some improvements. I waited at the front for my order to be taken for about 5 mins before even being acknowledged, but I will give them the benefit of doubt that they were busy.

    Food was average Chinese cuisine. The green beans with beef XO sauce was my favorite. The lo mein noodle was bland and pig's feet were tough to bite. Not pressurized enough. The fried deep soul was ok. Been coming here for awhile but today was ok. Service was always excellent. Fast and gives all we need. Ambiance quiet airy and spacious .

    Chicken Chow Mein
    Chris Y.

    I only come here for the food. The one person there makes it very difficult for me to want to come back. My suggestion is to buy to go only, or eat there and be treated rudely.

    I really hope to love this one, as I'm looking for a restaurant with Cantonese dishes around this area. However, they food is just ok. They have so many various dishes on the menu, but the quality is not that good. I tried the No158 Beef dry noodles. The beef is so hard to chew, not tender at all. The noodles itself is bitter, not smooth. I cannot even finish this dish. Xiao long nap is also disappointed, I don't think it's even fully cooked, I don't like the taste. The service was also so-so. The waitress is very cold, with a poker face. Dishes came fast though. I think the reason why this restaurant is still open is due to their competitive prices, but why they are not popular is because of their food quality.

It's hot, tasty, and the same portion all the time. The store itself is in the same plaza as 99 ranch. It's a cute little cafe looking shop. Sometimes there's a wait to get in, but the turnover is mostly quick. You can order through Uber Eats or online through their website. My favorite is how numbing and actually spicy the dishes are. I love being in pain, and when you ask for spicy, you will get spicy. My go to is the chongqing zajiang or the yibin burning noodles. I've also tried chengdu zajiang and the sour pickled mustard with shredded pork, the stir fried potatoes, and the chicken with chili sauce. All dishes were excellent. They were very filling and delicious. The prices are extremely reasonable because they give you a good amount of food and the quality is great. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I was surprised because there was only one couple in the restaurant besides us and they had already received their food. They could have been busy with online orders, but I still felt like it was slow service for being nearly empty inside. They have a self serve sauce bar. It just has soy, soy mixed sauce, chili oil, and black vinegar. I ordered the Wide Hand Pulled Noodles, Green and Onion Pot Stickers, and the Beef Rolls. Wide Hand Pulled noodles were ok. Honestly not much to brag about. I thought the noodles were cooked well but the flavor didn't really stand out to me. I believe it's served with chili oil, a mound of minced garlic and some vegetables. Outside of those ingredients I thought it needed more flavor or substance. The beef rolls were ok to me as well. I liked how crispy the roll was and size. Good portions of sliced beef served with cilantro. It was refreshing but the meat was generally cold with some warmness provided by the roll. But that quickly faded. Would prefer it to be warmer. The highlight was the pot stickers. Beef and onion were good. Really enjoyed the presentation of the dish. The edges of the pot sticker were really thick. Almost chip like. I enjoyed it as much as the dish itself. Would get it again. Overall I thought the food was ok. I'm sure there are better highlight dishes than what I ordered but they weren't selected this go around. Also the prices are a little higher than most dumpling spots so I just expected more.

I think my boyfriend and I could've honestly shared one bowl and be satisfied. It was not a bad price either for a huge bowl. I might be biased since I love huge portions for an affordable price, but I thought it was a delicious bowl. The appetizers were solid, I would've liked a bit more portion as the egg rolls and shrimp rolls were a skinny.

I'm not sure if they forgot to season it before bringing it to us, esp because the staff knew fish sauce was gluten free. It was honestly very disappointing. There was also a staff member who seemed new at the job that kept saying incorrect things without asking someone that knew more. He first told us that there was no gluten free menu option, which was later corrected by another more knowledgeable server. Make sure to ask someone who looks like they know what they're doing!
