The Take

Taste of China is standard American-Chinese slop built on soybean and canola fry oil. Order the steamed chicken or shrimp with mixed vegetables, sauce on the side, and white rice if you insist on eating here.

Everything else leans on thick sugary sauces and deep-fried items that turn the meal into portion-bloated industrial junk.

The Verdict

Taste of China pushes the same seed-oil wok routine dressed up with an MSG halo. The only salvageable path is the steamed route with minimal sauce.

Order the steamed chicken or shrimp with mixed vegetables, sauce on the side, and white rice.
