2018 Update: China Taste used to be our favorite Chinese restaurant with a 5-star rating but not anymore. Ownership changed hands in 2018 and it’s just not the same.
Our favorite dish was the General Tso. It used to be a generous portion with lightly breaded pieces of chicken. Now it’s mostly breading with almost no real chicken and the taste is just off. We also used to love the Crab Rangoon’s but now they just don’t taste good (a little “fishy”). We haven’t been back to try other other menu items but, based on conversations with friends, the changes appear to be across the menu.
How unfortunate that the new ownership changed so much for the worst. China Taste is pretty much a neighborhood restaurant tucked away in River Ridge. It was a local favorite but most of my friends and neighbors who also frequented it have moved on as well.

I bought several for my family, three pork and three shrimp. The egg rolls were bad and inferior(meatless); the cabbage inside the egg rolls wasn't cooked. I felt as if I was chewing on tough "Beef Jerky". I didn't expect to travel such a good distance to be very disappointed. When I got home, I gave them to...
