The lunch special is creating a hole in the meta. $5 for a plate literally piled 2-3 inches up with food. But it's also the best rice/noodles/shrimp/chicken I've gotten at any Chinese restaurant. It's so rare to find something that's low-cost and succulent in the realm of Chinese american restaurants. I find it highly worth the drive from Olathe.
I found this little gem several months ago, and have been going through the menu.
First of all, the prices and quality of the lunch menu are just unbeatable. The food is prepared fresh, with fresh ingredients. The kitchen is well organized and fast. The taste of the food has beaten every Chinese restaurant in Olathe so far. Many of them are bland, and cover that up with spicy hotness. While some dishes should be spicy, they should also be flavorful. The cooks at China Taste have managed to find a perfect combination.The flavorful, high quality food and resonable prices deserve the full 5.0 rating.
Favorite Chinese restaurant around. I have lived all over Johnson county and this is by far my top place to eat. The service is amazing and friendly every time. We get takeout there at least once a month and have been doing so for about 6 years. They have never disappointed. And that includes the 2 very picky kids i have. And my husband is very picky about his food as well. So glad we can always agree on China Taste as a family :)
Since moving to the Kansas City area, I've had a hard time finding a Chinese restaurant that I like. China Taste is the only one we go have patronized more than once or twice. In fact, we go there 1-2 times a month, and it's many miles down the road from us.
The food is always fresh, and I have loved everything I've gotten. Over the past several years, they've only 'messed up' our order a couple of times, but it was not bad enough that we didn't want to go back again.
We have been coming here for years! A fantastic meal, every single time. And the people? Forget about it, they are the nicest, warmest group of folks, they remember our orders up to and including reminding my husband if he's forgotten to order our staple "an extra pint of white rice". Great place, never disappointing :0)
At one time or another I have tried everything on the menu. The food is made fresh and I have never received a bad order of food. I usually eat it pretty quick after receiving it and don't let it sit around for a couple of hours or anything but I think they are the best in Gardner.
Awesome!. I absolutely love this place! Eat here once a week at least. Thank god for my fast metabolism hehe!
Best Hunan chicken I've found anywhere.
Great Service. I think this is a great Chinese place, the food is made quick and is cheaper than most. I usually get this to take home and its always steaming fresh when I take it out of the bag. The staff is nice and even though my boyfiend calls it "china taste the same" I think its great
Can't beat four dollar lunch specials. Food is very good.
Yummy Take Out. DH and I have never eaten in the restaurant. We always get our food to go, but talk about YUM. Tasty food. You get a lot for the price. Two people can eat for $10 if you order from the dinner menu. Lunches are also filling and affordable! only like $4.50 or something. Can't beat that. And they're fast. You can call ahead with your order, but there's really no need. If you order right then, you wait under 5 minutes. Sometimes there isn't always someone there who speaks GREAT English, but if you point on the menu it gets the point across. Despite the language barrier, the people working are friendly and will always smile if offered a smile. We really like the Chicken in Garlic Sauce with white rice. It's a little bit spicy, and a little sweet, and of course garlicy. Very good.
Cheap lunch... I'm never going to argue with a filling lunch for only $4.50. There general tso's is my usual and it has just the right amount of hot that I like.
My husband is a truck driver so I've been on a quest to find the best egg foo young and this place just moved to number one on my list. The patties were huge and delicious, the rice was fresh and the egg rolls were seasoned and tasty. I will be back before I leave.
Order over the phone,. Order online. Order in store. Whatever, just order. This is not Bo-Lings... this is simply top notch carry out Chinese food.
It has to be mentioned that their lunch specials simply can't be beat.
A Panda Express is coming to Gardner... China Taste runs circles around ANY corporate joint you will go to. Period.
They have good sweet & sour chicken w/rice, shrimp & low mein noodles, & crab rangoon. They are quick & one of our favorite places to go for lunch or dinner. Their portions are nice size. They have plastic forks, spoons & cold canned pop for drinks. Nice staff.
We visited China Taste for the first time last night and were very impressed! It's an unassuming little takeout restaurant, but the food was excellent! Plus, they run a really efficient operation filling a large number of orders quickly and accurately. Everyone enjoyed their orders including Kung Pao Chicken, Chicken Lo Mein, and Sweet & Sour Chicken with Crab Rangoon, Fried Rice, Egg Drop Soup and Hot & Sour Soup. We will definitely be back!
Kung Pao Shrimp was excellent, as well as the rest of our order. Best Chinese food around- for sure. The people who work here are very accommodating as well; if you have an allergy or special request that is off menu, just ask and they can probably make it. Thank you, China Taste!
Been coming here for over 20 years probably. Can't believe I haven't reviewed yet!
Food is ALWAYS hot, fresh and delicious! The staff are always pleasant as well.
Very friendly service and the food is the best around. In fact they're so good that when restaurants reopend due to covid shut downs, they had a constant wait for weeks
Very good food. Take out only. Not to bad on price, very good service.
