China Taste--中国味道

You may feel disappointed at the time you step into this restaurant as its actual appearance is not as impressive as it is on the website. The restaurant is small , just a little bigger than a typical Chinese takeout. However you will be surprised when the dishes are served. The test was really authentic and good. However, one of the dishes, the green beans were either some what overcooked or reheated old ,did not tasted as it was supposed to be. Also, they served really fast, making me doubt whether they were precooked package food. Anyway the food tasted better than I expected.

China Taste is one of our favorite places to go in Amherst. There are two dishes that we get consistently. The first is their stir fried cabbage in chili oil. The cabbage has great umami flavor while maintaining its crispiness. The second dish we almost always get is their mapo tofu. We order it extra hot because that's how we like it but be mindful that it is really spicy. The tofu has great texture and the flavor is well balanced. The blend of fermented black beans and chili paste is wonderful and the spiciness comes more from the chilis than the Sichuan peppercorns. If you're looking more for an authentic experience, this is absolutely the place to go. Service is always friendly and welcoming too.

I rarely write a review, but my boys were really disappointed and I agree with them to use my account for this review: The take out portion size has to be studied for a war crime. They are like giving us rations for WWIII. $34 for a nuclear bunker tin can of food is quite diabolical. Like we can’t be for real right now. The Mongolian beef tasted very soggy and no flavor at all. Fried rice was ok but overall both dishes were prepared with little heart to our opinions. Well, we saw a review saying there is significant more serving size when you eat in than take out. It feels kind of unfair. Looking up the stars again, it made us think it could be just bad luck, but I’m sorry we wouldn’t try next time.

Eat in person rather than takeout! The portions r significantly larger and your noodles won’t soak up all the soup! So good! And pretty affordable. Authentic as well! Nice and small quite comfortable. The staff IS SOOO KIND!! I always get the malatang noodle soup when I come and it comes out on a flame to make sure it stays hot while eating. I used to always get beef brisket noodles before discovering malatang though! Definitely very large portions. Shared between two people and still took home leftovers!

Hands down the best Chinese food in Buffalo! The portions are generous and the seasoning is incredibly authentic. It’s hard to find real Chinese food in the U.S., but this is the real deal. Awesome variety and super friendly service. We’re taking some dishes home and will enjoy it all weekend!

Fantastic. Authentic. Fast service. Bold flavors. Great portions for value. We ordered 6 dishes…6/6 were delicious. Don’t hesitate if you are craving good Chinese food this is the spot.

It's really, really, really delicious! As an Asian, I can say this is the most authentic northeastern Chinese cuisine! I highly recommend it with 100 points!！！！！！！

I love this place. I could gush but honestly it's just consistently good. I have had a few dishes that I didn't care for, but it's a large menu and you'll always find something you try and don't care for with large menus. But the items that are my favorite (Szechuan beef/lamb, spicy chicken, cumin beef/lamb) are always great.
