    delicious chinese cajun hybrid food. best seafood boil i've ever had. the mussels are huge and delicious, highly recommend getting corn and potatoes too. the sauce on the seafood boil stands out, its sweet, well spiced and very buttery. get a side of rice to scoop up all the sauce! teacup dumplings are a must get too when they are available. haven't tried anything else here, we live in seattle but have stopped twice while visiting portland. i will be back next time i come to portland! service is wonderful here, we have a baby and the staff was accommodating and friendly with him.

    If you love flavorful seafood boils, this is for you. The clams, shrimp, crawfish are fresh and delicious. I could eat the spice oil they come with on everything. We add it to their Singapore noodles, which are also amazing. Great service every time. Brought family visiting here and every person left happy.

    WOW! I had one of the best crab dinners of my life. I ordered Dungeness Crab and some corn. The crab was delicious... cooked perfectly and so much seasoning, it was perfect. I'm from San Francisco and love crab more than anything. Don't be worried about the 80 's decor or if the restaurant is not packed. This place is amazing.

    We went here at 11am on Friday. They had just opened. We ordered the lunch specials. Kung Pao chicken and shrimp lo mein. All their lunch orders are $12. Food came quickly. I didn't realize that they do cajun food also. We didn't have time to enjoy the Cajun food. The Kung Pao food was definitely good flavor and had good spice textures to it. We had a great lunch here.

    This place is where it's at. The crab boil is bomb- so flavorful! The dumplings are good too but I come here mainly for the crab boils. $5 hazys - you can't beat it. Family owned. Go there now!

    Tango crab is an unassuming restaurant, a hole in the wall, with a welcoming interior and very welcoming staff. Annie(sp?) has been my server several times and they are always a pleasure to speak with. They changed ownership in the past year, with new chefs, and are producing something special but I think they have potential and room to grow. Their Chinese menu is fantastic (I've not tried their Cajun stuff so can't comment there) For the Chinese folk out there or people wanting to try something new, ask Tango to make your seafood into classic Chinese versions like ginger scallion, salt-pepper, or black bean! All their food has been fresh and yummy. Pictured here is brocolli beef and salt pepper chicken

    Duck House is absolutely incredible! Let me start by saying…read moreChinese food is usually not my first choice when dining out, but this place completely changed my mind. Every dish we ordered was off-the-charts delicious. We had: * Garlic dry green beans * Szechuan Dan Dan noodles * Beef dry pot * Pork soup dumplings I wouldn't change a single thing--everything was perfectly seasoned, full of flavor, and served fresh and hot. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting, great for a relaxed night out. If you're even thinking about trying this place, stop thinking and just go. Duck House is now officially at the top of my dining list!

    Came here on a Friday night, and I was pretty disappointed by the quality of the food…read more We got Mandarin Crispy Chicken and Chicken Fried Rice. The fried rice's flavor was pretty muted..I prefer a little saltiness in my fried rice and it honestly had barely any salt? It tasted like plain rice with a little soy sauce and maybe oil flavor? Just not very aromantic in general.. I disliked the Mandarin Crispy Chicken the most as I had an issue with the breading. It was very thick and each bite felt more breading than chicken..The flavor of the sauce was good but with how thick the breading was, the inside of the chicken had no flavor at all once I bit in.. Perhaps we ordered the wrong items, but I don't think I'll be back to try any others at least for now. It was a Friday night so it was busy but I'll say service was good and we had a minimal wait time!

The service was good and the staff was attentive during our visit. Here is a breakdown of what we ordered: Hand-Ripped Youpoo Noodle: The absolute star of the meal. The wide, hand-ripped noodles had the perfect chewy texture you look for. They were tossed in a deeply savory, slightly spicy chili oil sauce and topped with a generous amount of perfectly seasoned minced beef and fresh bok choy. It was incredibly satisfying and a must-order. Popcorn Chicken: This was a bit of a letdown. While it looked golden brown and came with a sweet chili dipping sauce, it was not special at all and lacked any unique flavor or punch compared to the other dishes. Spicy Chili Oil Wontons: These were packed with flavor! The wonton wrappers were delicate, and the filling was juicy. They were swimming in a robust, aromatic chili oil that had a nice kick and a touch of vinegar sharpness. Why 4 stars instead of 5? While the noodles and wontons were excellent and the service was good, the atmosphere was a bit uncomfortable. The restaurant was completely empty when we went, but it was super cold inside because the window was wide open. Between the chilly draft and the fairly generic popcorn chicken, it misses out on a full 5 stars.

Typically at most Chinese restaurants, especially fried dishes, you'll see a pool of oil at the bottom of the dish. This is not the case here, and their sauces also keep their oil usage to the minimum. The food doesn't feel as heavy, and they nail most of their Szechuan flavors well. Their service is always fast and friendly. There is a gentleman in glasses that is always happy to serve and answer your questions. He is always happy to pack your food for you to go if you have leftovers as well, which is a lovely gesture. They have very cute decorations inside, from lucky cats with fortune cookies in their mouths, or a painted wall with a Panda cooking delicious food. I'd steer clear from their soup dishes, most of them lack flavor. I highly recommend their Chopped Pepper Fish and their Jade Tofu items though. Very flavorful and not very heavy! Plenty of parking is available which is lovely for eating in Portland, do not let this spot be missed if you've never tried it!
