Hungry Fatty goes to Tasty Goody
Happening upon a Valpak advertisement for Tasty Goody, my eyes spied a 3 item combo w/ egg roll for $6.49. Appreciating a good deal when I see one, I made the quick jaunt to Tasty Goody for some lunch.
Potato chicken, teriyaki chicken, salt & pepper chicken wings, egg roll & fried rice/chow mein- The potato chicken is chicken with potato wedges & sauce. Sort of like a Chinese poutine, I enjoyed the fluffy on the inside potato wedges and the tender chicken. The teriyaki chicken consisted of a grilled breast cut up in front of me & doused with teriyaki sauce. Without the teriyaki, the breast would've been bland on it's on. It is a large protein serving, which is always a plus. Generous helpings of fried rice & chow mein won't keep you hungry. The chow mein seemed a little soggy, but I didn't mind too much. The only thing Tasty Goody skimped on were the salt & pepper wings. 1 item = 3 wing sections. I was hoping for at least 5, but alas, only 3. However, they were breaded well, with a little kick & my favorite of all I had.
I asked if I could have soup as one of my items, but was told it's a la carte only. Besides the already prepared food, Tasty Goody has made to order menu items, as well.
In a hurry? Tasty Goody has a drive-thru for those that want to stay in their car. Parking is in a small private lot, with street parking available. A good amount of seating for those that choose to dine in. Service was good, as the ladies were friendly & appreciated my business.
Without having high expectations coming in, I found Tasty Goody to be a decent Chinese fast food restaurant. Large servings (besides the salt & pepper wings) for a cheaper price than Panda Express can feed you for multiple meals. Saving a buck or two, but still having a filling meal, is always much appreciated by me and Tasty Goody fits that to a...
Read moreThis is specifically for the wor wonton soup, idk about the other food as I only got this. It is not good… I bought it because this place is not too far and I was craving a wonton soup. Someone left a review saying they keep coming back for this soup… girl what? The wontons were a weird rubbery texture, the filling was not savory or tasty just chewy bland meat. The broth doesn’t taste like much. The best part about the soup was this one piece of broccoli it had. 😫 Im honestly not that picky but it really sucks that I couldn’t even push through this soup. Theres a Chinese food restaurant in Lakewood on South & Downey near Walmart and they have thee best wor wonton soup. Do yourself a favor and go there instead, only reason I bought from here and not there is because that restaurant doesn’t do postmates/ uber eats. Wont be making that...
Read moreI just ordered and ate some food from here. Only reason I got it was because they'r the only drive thru Chinese place I could find.
So let me tell you about the food, the Orange chicken was ok and the cung pow chicken was ok and the chow mien was fresh BUT the teriyaki chicken was horrible and old and dry and hard so that knocks off points.
The lady working there was really nice that's the best thing I could say about it.
Would I go back ? No it wasn't my taste
Was it terrible ? No, just the teriyaki chicken
I'll update this if I get sick off of it if I don't update this then I was fine...
