Reviews for First Taste Chinese Restaurant in Inverness, FL
Ive ordered from here a few times. They have very good quality food. I really enjoy eating from here
Chinese food isn't my favorite food but if you like it , i recommended this place
i know everyone says this, and i never thought i would have to come to this, but im going to say it. if i could, i would give... this place 0 stars. my family decided on chinese for my mom's birthday dinner so we ordered on their website to pick up. weprovided very simple and clear "special instructions" (no vegetables in 1 dish. extra pork in another. and no pork in the third.we got 4 meals total. ill get to mine later). when we got to the restaurant (can i even call it that?), the woman at the counterwas very quiet and anti-social. we gave a $5 anyway bc its a small place and we had a pretty big order. there was no pork in anyof the pork fried rice. and the worst part is that they failed to provide my mom's sweet and sour sauce for her sweet and sourchicken. seriously? she had to eat her chicken plain and dry... which leads me to my next complaint. their sauce is usuallypretty bland and the meat is relatively dry (we settle for this place because it is the closest to where we live) but today itwas just so awful that none of us will ever go back again. this was the last straw. on top of the mistakes in my family members'orders, my bourbon chicken was pink and tasted like water. i couldn't finish it. i had to pick off of my boyfriend's orangechicken, which was also plain and dry. the only good part was my fool-proof white rice. so, we notice all the mistakes in ourmeals and my mom decides to call the place to try to get some online store credit-- my dad was willing to drive back but my momsaid she didnt want to deal with it since it was already late. the woman who answered the phone could barely understand what mymom was saying and she was getting increasingly frustrated (noticeable in her disgusting attitude) as my mom tried to explain toher what the problem was, and that we would prefer credit over having to make another half hour trip for just some sauce andpork. she kept insisting we come back. then, the woman has the nerve to say "i have to charge yo Read more
This is a very small restaurant that caters to take out mostly. The food is good. The portions are ample. The prices are in line... with what you get. We've tried this place twice now and both times the food was quite good. Read more
New owners? Food tasted ok, but very greasy. A paper towel was put in my egg roll wrapper by restaurant to catch grease and... still was very wet not crispy. Read more
Been wanting to find some good Chinese take out in the area and found this place from Google. At first glance, I wasn't sure... they were open. The shopping center only has a couple open stores as it seems the anchor stores have left . Luckily, they wereopen and friendly enough. There were two of us and we both got the lunch special. One was shrimp and broccoli, the other one wasbeef and garlic sauce. The shrimp was good, and decent size, 5 total. The beef was soft and had only one or two chewy pieces.Better than most take aways. The main issue was both were kind of dry, with hardly any sauce. The special comes with a can ofsoda as well, but we had to ask for it and was directed to a cooler with 3 choices. Coke, Sprite, or orange. No diet soda. Therice is the yellow pork fried style, and was fresh. If in the area, maybe would try again and see if it gets any better, butwouldn't make a special trip. You can eat inside if you like, but the seating is limited to a couple tables like you'd expectfrom similar places and really designed for carry out. Read more
Fresh and delicious food! When I walked in the woman was making fresh wontons! The son was adorable and read me stories from a... book while I waited for my order. Of course I ordered the mixed egg drop and wonton soup. I also had the Singapore Mei Funnoodles, King Pao chicken, and steamed dumplings. The food was excellent. They definitely have a regular customer in me! Read more
This is the place to go for spicy Chinese food. Their H10. Hot & Spicy Shrimp is absolutely killer so darn good. Mix that with... the shrimp fried rice and yummy!! Read more
