Authentic, clean and flavorful Cantonese restaurant in SW area. I have been coming here since it opened many years ago. This is my first choice for hosting a group Chinese dinner in town. Atmosphere: there are 8-10 big tables and some square tables. They also have a couple private dining rooms with minimum $500. It's clean and spacious inside. Service: all the times I was there, service was quick and on point. No complaints here. Food: My favorites; - Peking duck two ways with lettuce wrap:5/5 -Honey walnut shrimp:4/5 -Jellyfish appetizer:5/5 -Lobsters:5/5 always fresh -Salt and pepper cartliage (5/5) Might order again -Scallop fried rice (4/5) -Pepper beef skillet (4/5) -Westlake beef soup (4/5) - Salt and pepper tofu (4/5) -Taiwanese three cups intestines (4/5) -Pig ears appetizer (4/5) -Deep fried dough with condensed milk (4/5) Will not order again -Taiwanese beef noodles (2/5) -Wonton noodles soup (2/5) -Salty fish and tofu pot (2/5) read more

We went there for a small family Chinese New Year Eve Dinner. Beijing Duck is delicious but small. It came with buns instead of pancakes, hoisin sauce, green onions and sliced cucumbers. Sizzling beef is tender and tasty. The pork chops are crispy and delicious. The tofu dish is surprisingly tasty. Service is efficient and effective. read more

We love coming here with lots of family. The space is so accommodating. And the food is always so authentic and flavorful. I'm bummed that we didn't get any pictures. But love their Beef and Garlic, Wor Wonton Soup, Chinese Broccoli with Garlic, Salt and Pepper Shrimp or Lobster, always get their Peking Duck, their dry Beef Chow Fun and we love Spam Fried Rice Lol. A great place I highly recommend. PS: There are so many other dishes that more traditional but I listed the ones my friends and family love (especially the kids). read more

When I visit Fam and Friends in LV I always let them take me to an off the strip place ( if you are visiting sin city...you should too....better food and much less $$$). I visited an old friend who had recently moved from San Fran and they took me to Taste...and I was shocked and surprised how good it was. Seriously good peking duck, great soup dumplings, and crazy good noodles. Service is top notch. Ambiance is what you expect from a classic canto place....ah oh well. Great place to dine....go! read more

One of our favorite Cantonese restaurants not in Chinatown part of town. Place do get busy. Great for big groups- best to make reservations. Service is great. They didn't rush us when we were waiting for our group to come in or when we all finished eating. Their Peking duck is great, flavorful, perfect with the steamed bao. The remaining duck is cooked with chestnuts and served a lettuce wrap. All the dishes that we have ordered from the few times we have been here are really good. Some of our favorites are steamed kamkong, hot pot eggplant, salt and pepper shrimp, steamed ginger chicken, and dungenese crabs. They give you a typical Chinese dessert at the end of your meal- tapioca. He have used them before for a big party of 20 people and they put us at their private room. Pricing is reasonable. Place is clean compared to to the ones in Spring Mountain. read more

Hands down my favorite authentic Chinese restaurant in town. This is a family style restaurant so be aware the portions will be big so there is plenty to share. They have tradition spin tables as well. You are always started with traditional hot tea steaming out the pot. My personal recommendations are : the broccoli beef, soup wontons, pepper steak, and the salt and pepper wings. The staff is always so welcoming and helpful with the menu if you have any questions. read more

Probably some of the best Chinese food I've recently had in Vegas , although it's so difficult to get a seat in here on weekends during prime lunch/dinner hours. Go early!!! My favorite dish was the General chicken, it had a bit of a hint of spicy and was crispy and so delicious. The beef dry chow fun was also spectacular. The service was fantastic & we had no complaints whatsoever. read more

Best Cantonese food I've had in Vegas! Ordered -the salt and pepper pork chops (fried to perfection with lots of seasoning and crispy but not over battered) - black bean fish fillet- tender fish, not mushy, could use some more black beans but had good onion bell pepper addition too - hk chow mein- crispy and lots of sauce in the middle so you can get best of both worlds. - pea sprouts- tender fresh and done perfectly. No tough pieces! -cha siu bbq pork- solid Would definitely return!! read more

The food is amazing and high quality. Nothing bad to say about the food. The service is average and sometimes excellent. The restaurant is crowded on the weekends and in the evenings which is when the service is worse as you would expect. The restaurant is clean and it is tablecloth service. A bit on the spendy side but we keep returning because the food is very good. There are too many good dishes to name them all but some of our favorites are the eggplant casserole, the minced pork green beans, and the crispy chicken. read more

Review # 300 was a really good one. We celebrated "Another trip around the sun" aka birthday for a special family member. He wanted Peking Duck for his birthday and even had Taste restaurant all picked out. Taste does not take reservations so if your coming on a Friday or Saturday night do yourself a favor and come just shy or just after main dinner hour or you may have to wait a bit to be seated. Taste is very elegant looking inside with big comfortable chairs. We started with vegetable eggrolls and pork dumplings (which the dumplings came a bit later but we were notified in advance at time of ordering). We elected to stick with water and a very earthy possibly a rose hips flavored hot loose tea. For our main we ordered a whole Peking Duck initially cut at our table then the remainder was cut up in back and brought out later. We also ordered a side of Chinese broccoli, honey walnut chicken and sea bass. Yes this was way too much food but we put a major dent in it. The duck came with a side of steamed buns and hoisin sauce. I can honestly say every single "taste" of food I had was incredible (hence the name ..right). I've say every time I have duck that I don't get enough in my diet..and it's true it was so good. Our initial waitress and plenty of floor staff kept our water and hot tea refilled all night and were always around if we needed anything. By the time we left the restaurant was completely full. Taste is an incredible upscale family style Chinese restaurant. I don't think you could go wrong ordering anything here. BTW did I mention the fresh crab and lobster tank with good size offerings... I will be back for sure. read more

We opted for delivery and was very impressed that it still came piping hot. The beef chow fun was amazing. I hoped that the Shrimp Satay with eggs would be just as delicious but it lacked a little bit of flavor. Overall, I will go back to try other things. read more

Came here with a party of 9 on Sunday evening and got seated right away! My brother in law recommended this place since we were craving Asian food. Ambiance is your traditional banquet style Chinese restaurant, the ones you rent part of the restaurant out for a celebration like a birthday, baby shower, etc. I heard they're known for their duck, which I wish we got but only three of us liked duck. So we opted for other dishes. The main ones that stuck out to me were the fried whole chicken, Chinese broccoli, green beans, and orange chicken. Fried whole chicken- this had so much flavor and was super juicy! Chinese broccoli- I loooove Chinese broccoli. This one was sautéed in garlic and very crunchy. I try to supplement my rice intake with veggies when I eat meat heavy meals and I was so content eating loads of this. Green beans- the green beans with pork bits (I think). This was also really good! Orange chicken- You can definitely taste the orange but it was super overpowering and I really liked that the breading of the chicken was super thick. I knocked down a star because the waiters reach over you constantly without saying excuse me or being aware of how close their arms are above your food. One of the waiters also spilled a cup full of ice and never apologized or came back to clean it up. We asked if someone would come back to clean it and she came back around with a stack of napkins and left. Other than that, the food was really good! read more

Classic Chinese food with amazing taste. Had gotten a table for 12 during Mother's Day weekend, they were able to seat us and were super helpful. We had ordered duck and lobster. They had table side carving for the duck and showed us the size of the lobster. Both were excellent. The place was spacious to fit large groups. read more

This place is usually 5-star, which made this experience even more disappointing. I called a week before Christmas to make a reservation for two people. The woman on the phone told me they would be busy but confirmed 4:00 PM on Christmas Day would work. When we arrived, we were told they don't take reservations unless it's for parties of 10 or more, and that no reservation existed. We even had our call log showing we spoke to them, yet there was no empathy, no apology, and no ownership--as if we completely made it up. I understand miscommunication happens, especially around holidays, but the lack of accountability was frustrating. An apology would have gone a long way. Instead, we were forced to scramble on Christmas Day and find somewhere else to go. Very disappointing experience for a place that usually prides itself on service. read more

Peking Duck plus more! Great spot, clean restaurant, helpful staff! Loved it all! Great place to bring friends & family together. Nice to be able to celebrate and eat authentic Chinese food. Vegas is full of great spots to eat - add this on your list. Reasonable & tasty. Enjoy! read more

Looking for a good Chinese restaurant. You found the spot. Now the bad news. Like all good restaurants. You got to wait. Was recommended this place. It's a small place with only 15 tables which more than half of them seats 8. So the wait is a little longer due to the larger tables. Okay, the food. It was a cold night so we ordered the chicken porage (rice jook). It's not like you are use to. It was light on the rice and the chicken was the backs. It had slivers of ginger so it gave it a kick. Beef Funn was tasty. It was dark but not salty. Nice meat to noodle ratio. Beef Broccoli was great. Beef was tender and the broccoli was tender and not to soft. Not to saucy. Beef Bitter Mellon black beans. Beef and the bitter mellon where nice and tender. The bitter mellon was not to harsh which is nice. Not to many places serve cake noodle. But it was nice and a good presentation when it came to the table. Pros: Great food. Nice size portions. Tender beef and vegetables. Just the amount of sauce. Cons: Small place. Long wait. Large tables. Would like to see smaller with expanding tables so they can adjust to crowd flow. read more

I rarely leave bad reviews, but this place absolutely earned it. The service was terrible. It took an unusually long time just to get our food, and there were even longer gaps between each order. The servers barely checked on us the entire time. At one point, I asked a server for the check and a to-go box--he nodded, walked off, and never came back. We ended up waiting even longer before flagging down a different server to ask for the same thing. Completely unacceptable. The food itself didn't make up for any of it either. Overall, it was bland and just not worth the price or the wait. Definitely will not be returning here again. Not recommended. read more

ARTICULATE ASIAN DINERS It's been years since I had last dined here at this southwest premium Cantonese restaurant. In fact it's long overdue since I'm a friend of one of the lovely sweet tableservers. Her name is Katrina. It only seemed most prudent to go along with popular entrees Katrina had recommended: snowpea, roasted garlic chicken, and roasted pig meat. White table cloths for a crisp clean feel. Oriental art decor but not gaudy. Table service is way above average for an Asian restaurant. Thus, a very good place to meet friends & family or even a quiet meal for two. read more

9/5/2023 This is the first Chinese dinner I've had here in Vegas and it makes m not want to try and other places. Sizzling beef in black pepper sauce - excellent sauce and sizzling hot Salt and pepper shrimp (no shells) - I've never seen an option for no shell before, pretty good but I think I might prefer shells String beans with pork - the pork makes each bite of string bean so delectable Roasted pork - perfect crispy skin with just the right amount of fat and meat Salt and pepper chicken cartilage - this is the only dish I wouldn't order again; there was just too much batter for my liking read more

Food is hands down authentic and good! This is my 3rd time going. Every time it's consistent: Food, Service and the experience. Service is always good! My drinks are always topped & they provide complimentary hot tea! So the BEST part...the food. I tried several dishes the other 2 times but didn't take pictures. Some of favorite dishes are Beef Stew Casserole, Roasted Duck, Salt & Pepper Pork Chops, Eggplant with garlic sauce. Honestly I haven't had a bad dish yet. The ambiance is clean and elegant. The hubby and I agreed this will be our "go to" for authentic Chinese food! Can't wait for our next visit! read more

We usually come to Taste to fulfill our Dungeness crab cravings. We paid about $83 after tax for our crab dish and eggplant dish. This was our first time with the eggplant dish, and I will definitely make it a regular dish. We always order our crab harbor style because there's so many flavors. Workers are always very kind. We came on a Sunday at 7:30 PM, so we had to wait a little while, but not very long. I love that you can see the live seafood in their restaurant. It is always lively here when it's crowded with people genuinely enjoying their food. read more

We went to dinner with family from Hawaii. I had never been to this place before so I wasn't quite sure what to expect but I have to say the food was very, very good. Portion sizes were big. Pricing was not bad. Food was tasty and the service was good, they were attentive. The restaurant itself was okay nothing spectacular but clean. We do plan to come back with other family members. Chinese food can be a hit or miss but I have to say this place was a hit for sure. I highly recommend this place. read more

We have been dinning at Taste for years and our recent visit was an disappointment! I am sure they change chefs as many dishes we usually order taste completely different but not for the better. The duck is good, but the fish ball soup, beef chow fun, and a few other dishes is way off and the portion is much smaller. I hope it will improves. If not, we will be very sad to see a well love restaurant food go downhill. We will definitely try again and see if there's any improvement. read more

Located at 7945 South Rainbow Boulevard, as far from Spring Mountain as it is from The Strip, Taste has found an audience by focusing on "authentic Cantonese" cuisine at fair prices for everything from Pork Offal to Seafood from on-site tanks. Traditional in terms of layout, a brightly-lit banquet room with white tablecloths and minimal décor, it is after a short wait that guests are seated at rounded tables and presented a menu ranging from several pages and styles. Open from 11am until 10pm daily, peak hours frequently accompanied by a wait, fans of Peking Duck will find Taste's approximately 1/3 the price of Mott 32 and across three tableside courses everything from crispy Skin on Bao to Soup and Lettuce Wraps is well-prepared in generous amounts. Moving next to Congee, a bit bland in comparison to others, Walnut Prawns see sweetness reined in by lots of Mayo while Manila Clams in X.O. Sauce are worth the effort plus a bowl of White Rice to soak up all the Sauces. Waiting a long while for forgettable Chinese Broccoli, admittedly forgotten by the server, Ginger Scallion Lobster saw Shellfish shine despite overcooked Pasta while Sizzling Beef with Black Pepper proved better before finishing with complimentary Chinese Barley Soup. read more

I moved to Las Vegas from San Diego, but originally from San Francisco. I am used to really good Chinese food since I'm half Chinese and my grandpa used to own Chinese restaurants all my life. Unfortunately, SD didn't have any good Chinese food up to my standards. Taste reminds me of grandpa's cooking! We moved down the street! We've been here a few times already. We've tried the Salt and Pepper Pork Chop, Honey Walnut Prawns, Westlake Minced Beef Soup, Crab Meat & Fish Maw Soup, Peking Duck, Manila Clams with Black Bean Sauce, Deep Fried Flounder, Salt & Pepper Calamari, Empress Chicken, Mongolian Beef, Sweet & Sour Pork, and more.... It will be hard to describe every dish. Let's say they're all unique, flavorful, and not oily. I hate oily Chinese food. We come here when we have a big group and can order a 7 or 9-course meal so everyone can try some of everything! read more

Decent food, terribly rude service. Not worth another visit at all. We came in on the Saturday of Chinese New Year. We made a reservation for 4 pm, knowing there's no other way we'd get a table. Even with the restaurant 90% empty at 4 pm, the service was still terrible. We had to flag down a waiter to put in our order and get a table. We ordered a lot, given that the 4 of us wanted to really celebrate. The Peking duck had a good texture for the skin, but I think it wasn't seasoned enough. The egg yolk fried crab (+$10 on top of the regular crab price) had a nice flavor, but it was a bit over cooked. The meat wasn't succulent anymore. We also ordered xiao long bao, siu yuk roasted pork, garlic pea shoots, and HK fried noodles. Just the food was good. Nothing mind-blowing, but pretty solid. The dishes were also brought out weirdly. We had the veggies and pork really early, so we almost finished them before the rest of our food came out. Again, this was weird considering the restaurant was empty at 4:45 pm. We ordered rice, but they never brought it. By the end of the meal, we were clearing our own plates and dishes. Grabbing our own napkins, etc. We finished almost everything, and we really tore into the crab. Not a single piece left! Obviously, it took a while. The last straw with service though is that they basically tried to kick us out at 6 pm. We were all washing up in the bathroom while they offered us dessert then just brought us the check. The manager (?) flat out brought us more water in a plastic to-go cup with a straw. We weren't there an unreasonable amount of time. Less than two hours for a party of 4 with a big check. But rudely asking us to leave after terrible service all night...I can't forgive that. read more

This is my 2nd visit since about 5 yrs ago and damn I forgot how good this place is! When I tell you the diced steak with garlic is DELICIOUS it's freaking amazing! The fried rice AMAZING as well! The service is fast and friendly and they continued to check on us to make sure we were enjoying our meal. The restaurant is quite large and you can enjoy a party of 1 or 2 or go big with a large group. I will definitely be back soon and not wait another 5yrs. read more

This is the best Chinese restaurant around my neighborhood. Both the service and the food are great, and we'll be coming here regularly.

Honestly most food we ordered was bland. Had a fried rice, noodle dish which had absolutely no flavor. Also had some kind of sweet pork tenderloin. It was ok. Cumin lamb was the best flavor dish we had. Deep fried crab was super messy, very spicy, & not enjoyable to eat. Eggplant dish was super spicy & didn't taste good. Last dish was a batter fried shrimp that wasn't bad but no way you could eat all whole plate & not feel it in yiur stomach. Other diners with me also commented they have had better food there in the past & it didn't seem up to par any more. read more

I grew going to authentic traditional Chinese restaurants as a kid, the ones in the early 2000's with the large fish tanks, small packed restaurants, and the family style dining. The classic red pot of rice, the tea, all that just feels nostalgic now. I actually accidentally stumbled upon this place confusing it for another restaurant, and keep in mind I haven't found many reactants here in vegas like this and what I just described because they all are dying out Taste is absolutley amazing! There's something for everyone and anyone on the menu. Menu's also easy to read, many great options. I always go for the crispy garlic chicken. It comes with this sweet and sour sauce you can dip the meat into and it's just so so good!! Their duck is amazing as well! Their golden pumpkin has this salty egg taste and if you like fried pumpkin, this is nice paired with rice! Me and my mom always go here, and the service is pretty quick and the staff is kind! If you want that nostalgic feel of how authentic Chinese restaurants used to be here in Vegas, 10/10 would reccomend coming here! It's pretty big inside too compared to like SK Seafood, or other places. Wait time isn't too long, there's seating big enough for 2 people at a time to 10 people at a time. Love love love this place! read more
