Roast Duck 烧鸭
Jordan B.

Walking into Guangdong Taste, my friends and I didn't realize it was a family-style dining spot, but that became clear pretty quickly once we looked around the restaurant and saw everyone else's food. The portions are big and meant for sharing, which worked perfectly since there were five of us. The real surprise for me was the rotating tabletop. I had never experienced one before, and it honestly made sharing dishes both fun and super convenient. We ordered a plethora of dishes: BBQ pork buns, custard buns, Cantonese roast duck, Szechuan chicken, stir-fried Chinese broccoli, and eggplant with garlic sauce. Everything we tried was delicious, no misses across the table. That said, the eggplant with garlic sauce was the standout for me; it was rich, savory, perfectly sauced, and absolutely the dish I kept going back for. Service was a tad slow, but the restaurant was clearly busy, so I get it. Nothing that ruined the vibe, just something to be aware of if you're in a rush. All in all, this was an excellent family-style dining experience with generous portions and great food. I'd definitely dine here again and next time, I already know I'm ordering that eggplant with garlic sauce. *Insert eggplant emoji* lol

We always go here for a Chinese food fixed, food tastes are very consistent and delicious. Very tasty and could match with NY Chinatown. The service today is not so good that is why it is 4 not 5 star, it could really be improved. I asked 3 servers for a water refill. I understand it is busy but probably additional staff on a holiday will help. I appreciate the guy who seated us on a big table just to seat us in order. The restaurant's restroom is clean in spite of being busy. Will always be one of my favorite in the area.

Shrimp fried rice

Honestly... the options for Chinese food in vb suck lol but this one has definitely satisfied my taste buds. It is defintely a little pricier than most but you get alot of food. You can easily eat there and take home for the next day. The service is what it is. I wouldn't categorize it as horrible, they're just working fast. They've got to go orders to do plus the restaurant gets busy plus the language barrier plus some customers attitude do get crazy. So I can understand. But the food is honestly really good, I've only had one dish that wasn't the best, it was a seafood something, I cant remember. And their fried rice is brown, which is what it should be, NOT YELLOW!

Noisy, lively atmosphere, with service. The dishes smell great but prices have definitely gone up! I ordered the Salt and Pepper Triple Delight (shrimp, squid, and scallops), Mongolian beef,

Small little cute space. It is set up with mostly round tables to be able to have the family style experience. Everything you order is a very large quantity because it is meant to share. There is a circular table on top to be able to move the dishes around easily. There were 6 of us so it was a bit pricey but there was plenty of food to take home for another meal or two. Everything came out hot and tasty. My only recommendation would be to have a menu where you could order an individual meal if you did not want to share. The bathrooms were clean. They do have a full bar for cocktails. Noise level is a bit above average. It is wheelchair accessible but could be difficult to move around.

This was my first time at GuangDong. We went early in the day, so seating was plentiful. I was very eager to try the soup dumplings and my husband was eager to try the duck. We ordered the duck on the mixed platter and it was tasty along with the pork. My main entree was pan fried noodles with chicken and it had such a great flavor. The servings were also plentiful so we all shared dishes. At the table, we also had Sea bass and peppercorn squid. The squid was very good. It came to the table late, so we took most of it home. It lost its crunch, but not its flavor. Now let's talk soup dumplings. I read several other Yelp reviews to get a concerns us and I saw a lot of positive vibes. Overall, they had good qualities when they arrived to the table. They looked delicious, they were hot, and I could tell there was soup and a filler inside. I was a little disappointed at the amount of soup and the flavor. They were ok dumplings. 3.5 STARS! I would definitely visit again and I really enjoyed their food flavor. However, I am still on the hunt for the best soup dumplings in the 757!

Popular dim sum restaurant that was still quite busy on a Saturday night. Keep in mind that a dim sum order takes about 20 minutes. My order of lobster was ready before the dim sum. So just keep that in mind.

Birthday dinner

The food was the most authentic Chinese cuisine I have had in the 757 area we went to celebrate my birthday back in 2023 and had made a reservation for 30 and it did not disappoint. If anything, most of the guest still bring up the experience / restaurant to this day because it was that memorable

Delicious carry out dinner: half Steamed chicken with ginger and scallion sauce $15.50 and pan fried seafood noodles $17.95. I ordered in person at 5:45 pm on a Tuesday night, my order was ready in 20 minutes. The dinning room was not busy, just two families were eating and a few carryout orders ready for pick while I was waiting for my dinner. Lots of parking spaces available and well lite parking lot. I will return for duck noodle soup and fresh fish dishes.

Sophia and I headed here for lunch last weekend. I came across this place years ago on Yelp but…read morenever had the time to try them out. They did close for a bit during the pandemic due to a staff shortage, but opened back up and haven't lost a beat. Local Yelpers have posted positive reviews on the food and service. Let's see how the visit went. We were immediately seated when we walked inside. They actually had a nice crowd inside which definitely had them busy. Since it's a dim sum restaurant, they came around several times offering small dishes. We declined until the very end and decided to order from their regular menu. My order was a cup of Egg Drop soup for appetizers and salted and spicy scallop, shrimp and squid. Everything was truly delicious. The soup was very hearty and full of flavor as expected. The seafood was fried perfectly and full of spices. The portion could've been a little more but nonetheless it was really good. To end our meal, we chose their shrimp balls off the dim sum plate. It was really good and flavorful. For our first time here, we were both impressed. Wonderful staff and food to back up the hype. The next time we stop by, it'll purely be items via dim sum :)

Have an understanding of what's what if you're doing the dim sum since they didn't give you a menu that describes everything. Veryyy busy on the weekends and I don't think they take reservations. There was a line when we arrived on a Sunday afternoon before they even opened! Says a lot. My favorites were the spare ribs, beef stew, a type of taro dish, and the Chinese broccoli. I do wish they had more veggie dishes on the dim sum carts. You fill up fast so choose wisely! Next time would love to either try the lobster, steamed flounder, or roast duck.

The older lady welcomed and greeted us, and walked us to our table. She was a very enthusiastic lady and was very happy to have us dine at her restaurant. I loved her energy!

We ordered sweet and sour chicken, beef and broccoli, chicken fried rice, and beef lo mein. The beef lo mein noodles were broken into small pieces instead leaving them as long noodles and there were more vegetables than there were noodles. The beef in the beef broccoli had an unusual taste like it had been sitting out for too long and the broccoli and bamboo shoots had a really weird taste that I can't even explain; we didn't finish it. The sweet and sour sauce had a slight flavor akin to some kind of cleaning agent; we just ate the chicken without the sauce. The chicken fried rice was the best out of all of it. They should get rid of the piano player and just play music, even traditional Chinese music, over the speakers. The internal appearance of the place made us think the food and ambience would be somewhat traditional, but it wasn't even close. China Ocean off of Holland has far better Chinese food than Imperial Palace. I will not recommend imperial palace nor returning to eat there. The staff/service was great, especially our waitress Sue.

My family and I (5 people) came in to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday dinner and there was nobody but us in the restaurant. The first thing I noticed was the server. He was dressed in jeans, hooded sweatshirt, a beanie and had a toothpick in his mouth. A bit out of the ordinary but to each their own for proper attire in what I would deem a upscale-ish restaurant. The real issue was him taking our order, seemed rushed. As we were deliberating and figuring out what we wanted. My girlfriend was talking about the scallion bubble pancakes. He came over and said, "I overheard you said the scallion pancakes, did you want to put in that order?" My girlfriend said no, she wanted everything to come out all at once. He said ok and then we walked off. Next thing we know, the pancakes came out WAY ahead of everything else we ordered. By like 15 minutes at least. When my girlfriend said something about it, the waiter said, he said outright " I never heard her say not to order them, she never said anything, and they are out right now". No apology, no I'll go ahead and fix that...nothing. When we we on the way out, we talked to the owner about the experience and the only thing he mentioned was that, the server was new and it's hard to find good employees because they revolve so quickly. Which wasn't really an answer at all. It was definitely a 180 degree turn from the first experience we had here which was 5 stars all around. I think given the experience, we unfortunately won't be coming back

I like that it's spaced out and you're not over crowded. Our waitress Catherine was awesome. She's always nice, friendly, and patient. She gave us the menu specials and allowed us to chat a bit before ordering. My friend ordered the cheese wontons, general tso chicken and dan dan noodles. The wontons were really good. I like that they were sweet and crispy. I'd get them again for sure. The dan dan noodles were spicy and flavorful. My sister and I got the Mongolian chicken, storm fish, and eggplant. This is my go to meal that I normally get, it's always tasty. The storm fish normally comes with a spicy mayo sauce, but they didn't have it this time. The fish was still ok, but the sauce is what gives it flavor, so it was a little bland this time. The eggplant and Mongolian chicken were yum, hot, and fresh!!

They have many delicious options on the menu, and again the vibe is chill. If you're planning a group dinner this is definitely a great option.

I found maybe 4 at most. It was also disappointing most of the sauce was on the bottom. So it's imperative you stir everything from bottom up upon receiving the order.

I otherwise would have specifically requested the order be made without the them. I am not a big fan of mushrooms and especially the fragrant kind like the shiitake variety. I feel like I had mouthfuls of mushrooms in each bite and that's all I tasted. Perhaps I will order something else they are more known for the next time I believe they specialize in Szechuan cuisine.

Really appreciated that there was no bitter taste as some have. Prices aren't unreasonable, just more than most places in our area. Service was ok. Typical Chinese food as far as it has been lately. Order at the front. Get paper plates and your own plastic ware. While we sat there and ate there was a decent amount of TO GO orders picked up so that say a lot.
