Taste of Asia - Suncoast Hotel Las Vegas — Restaurant in Las Vegas

It's been a while since I've had Chinese food (~5 months); my family and I have been wanting more Korean and Japanese food so it was rather difficult to fit in Chinese cuisine at the same time. However, I've recently had an itch to venture to a nice, new, sit-down, Chinese restaurant and didn't want to travel too far away from our residence to experience this. Although this restaurant wasn't extremely close to our house (located in the far Northwest part of the city), it was within reasonable distance so we opted to come to this restaurant on 8 May 2024, after conducting a Google search.

When I walked in the restaurant, I quickly noticed that it wasn't busy at all, which was good news because my wife and I were starving and didn't make a reservation either, and I wasn't in the mood to wait outside the restaurant. Also, it's difficult to miss all the nice décor in this restaurant; it's evident that they've taken their time when building this place. Between the vibrant colors and paintings, it made our experience very comforting. The one downfall to the restaurant's atmosphere is just like any other restaurants located in Las Vegas casinos...the smoke from people's cigarettes/cigars have a tendency to travel into the restaurant making it unpleasant for some of us that have a strong sense of smell. In this case, the restaurant doesn't have walls or doors at the front to filter out some of those smells - I highly recommend building something similar to the steakhouse on property several feet down from this restaurant as an example.

As far as the food, we ordered Pot Stickers, Wonton Soup, Sweet Sesame Ball, Kung Pao Chicken, Combination Fried Rice, and the Sizzling Black Pepper Beef Tenderloin. My favorite entrées were the Pot Stickers and the Kung Pao Chicken, whereas, my wife thoroughly enjoyed the Sizzling Black Pepper Beef Tenderloin. I will admit though, the texture of the beef tenderloin was cooked to perfection; something I rarely experience in a Chinese restaurant - normally, you get this type of quality at a steakhouse. On the other hand, I wasn't a fan of the Wonton Soup; the onion flavor was great (I love garlic and onions), but it lacked any other type of flavor. Normally, I can enjoy that soup just like it's served; however, this time, I had to use soy sauce as a flavor enhancer. Also, in general, the Sesame Ball was good, but the red bean paste inside was a little dry. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't so dry where I needed to drink gallons of water, it was just drier than what I'm accustomed to. Aside from those two items, everything else was either good or excellent.

The service at this restaurant was outstanding. I can't pinpoint a single employee to highlight considering we were exposed to four different ones during our experience. Regardless, they were all very friendly, attentive, and highly efficient at what they did. The price-to-quantity/quality was satisfactory...I felt that the price point was slightly higher than what was provided, but nothing that will break the bank. We ordered a lot of food to try and I knew we'd bring home leftovers, but if I ordered just one entrée for myself and that was it, I felt it would be a little underwhelming in quantity. But then again, nobody should be overeating anyways. I really appreciate the restaurant's support for the men and women of the Armed Forces - this is highly respectable in my books. Overall, I enjoyed my time here - I recommend this restaurant...

I've been here 3x and each time the menus have changed. The soft opening menu was awesome, everything was great! This last time, nothing was good. Garlic chicken wings were not seasoned at all, the ranging we tried because it said it had pineapple in it, so curiosity got us, it tasted like the napkins on the table, there's wasn't pineapple either, just yellow food coloring(it looked like a hard boiled egg), chicken and broccoli was a shame, are they trying to be msg free? There was no oyster sauce on the dish(best part was the under seasoned broccoli with the jasmine rice), even the chili oil lacked flavor(it has heat but no flavor) the premade frozen egg rolls were soggy inside with a strong ginger taste... The best part of the meal... Water and the shrimp chive cakes(ponzu saved those) It's definitely made for people who have an Americanized palate. Save your money on this over priced grossness and order from pearl wok to go down the street, they deliver, it's inexpensive and you can taste the food. I was greatly disappointed in my overall experience with the food. I left everything on my plate, paid and left. I went back to my room and finished off the day old pizza which was so much better. The staff was great! Friendly and quick, but that's not enough to make me want to come back there ever again. I would suggest placing a person of Asian ethnicity in the kitchen instead of someone uncultured in Asian food reading from recipes. Maybe that would help with the other negative reviews I've seen...

Taste of Asia makes delicious Chinese Food and Dim Dum located inside the Suncoast Hotel and Casino. The staff are always polite and attentive. The restaurant is well maintained. Booths and table seating are available. I love the colors and the decor inside this restaurant. The colorful umbrellas hung upside down used for the lights are pretty. Good selection of food on the menu. They have Happy Hour from 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm daily and Lunch Specials for $9.99 from 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm daily.

On the menu: Popcorn Chicken BBQ Pork Bun Black Pepper Beef Noodle Salt and Pepper Pork Chop

We really enjoyed the food! I’m a black pepper kind of girl and Oh my the Black Pepper Beef Noodle was so yummy! The BBQ Pork Bun was on point the bun was soft with the perfect amount of marinated pork. Popcorn chicken was tender with a good crunch, we liked the slightly fried Basil it was a nice addition to this dish. The Salt and Pepper Pork Chop was also yummy seasoned just right, light on the batter and not too greasy. We enjoyed our dining experience here and we will be...
