Sichuan Taste was a perfect pit stop on a road trip from the South Bay up to Seattle. We rolled…read morethrough Portland and stopped for a few plates, and everything punched way above a typical highway stop. The smashed cucumber salad was super refreshing -- lots of garlic, crunchy, and exactly what you want after hours in the car. The green onion pancakes came out crispy and satisfying, but my favorite was the wood ear mushroom. They did something to it that made it insanely umami and savory, like a dish you keep thinking about later. The fried rice was solid and full of flavor, and you could tell the kitchen cared. The dining room was pretty empty when we went, so maybe it's newer or underrated, which feels unfair because the food deserves more people. Parking around there is kind of a hassle and the neighborhood isn't the prettiest, but this is a definite stop for me next time I'm in Portland.

In a weekday it wasn't busy which was convenient for quick seating and service. We came in here with wanting to try a lot on their menu because it was a recommended spot! The garlic green beans were tasty and came with white rice (lunch special). I loved the chili wontons and pork and shrimp xiao long bao the most. Portions were large and perfect for shareables. What I wouldn't order again would be the salt and pepper chicken wings they just weren't my favorite but also stared to get full by the time they came out. Service was great, friendly, fast accommodating and consistently checked in on us.

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.

The women who work here are all very nice and great customer service. They cook with FRESH ingredients. For example, fresh green beans and snow peas, not canned or frozen. I highly recommend their seafood items. The shrimp and scallops in garlic sauce were cooked perfectly, so was the green bean chicken. And, in my opinion, they have the best Lo Mein in Portland! Parking in this neighborhood can be very difficult, but it's worth it to park a block or two away, you won't regret it.

There is one huge…read morereason, they use significantly less oil in their dishes but still use quality ingredients where the flavor stands out without the oil. 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!

Luckily I've come here on slow nights but I hear they get pretty busy. Pretty much the younger crowd here too. The whole place feels trendy, moody and elevated. Overall, great lounge bar. One of my favorite spots to catch up with friends.
