Took the family here for dinner tonight and it was excellent! We had orange chicken, drunken noodles, salt and pepper fish and mapo tofu. The portions were generous and everything was served hot. It was fresh and flavorful. We started with the crab rangoon which I highly recommend. The owners are friendly and the service very good. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our evening. We will go back soon. read more

Went there with my mother's old lady social club. It was a party of probably 20. Server got all the orders right and she hustled. Of course the ladies kept her full of requests (but I think most tip pretty good!) Food came out quickly. Server refilled drinks quickly. Was nice to have the option to order white meat chicken and food was good! read more

My family has been going here for years. Both eat in and take out are a great experience. Try the spring rolls---they're sooo crispy and tasty. My go to is their wonton or hot and sour soup with spring rolls since i love soups. I've also had their tasty chicken fried rice, hot and sour pork etc. They're a fixture in saratoga and worth the price read more

I don't often order a lot of Chinese, especially for delivery. The food arrived quickly probably 10 minutes easily before the estimate, and so hot I would swear it left the pan a few moments before. I had the Mongolian beef, it was excellent, flavorful yet without a heavy cloying sauce , just enough to provide moisture and flavor, my wife had Egg Drop soup and Szechuan Chicken , she absolutely loved it. I'm going to have to add this place to my in person visit list, if take away is this good I can't wait to sit down for a meal. read more

Our go-to for carry out or delivery. In general with Chinese food, the quality and consistency is hit or miss. I believe it stems from the constant turnover with the kitchen staff. Hunan Taste is one of the few places that stays consistent. The food is very good for the area. Our young kids like it a lot too. Delivery or pick up, it's super quick. Service is always friendly as well. Our favorites from here General Tso Chicken (with white meat) Chicken and Mixed Veggies Lo Mein Egg rolls read more

Ok we always love Hunan Taste. Never a bad meal. We picked up an order today and before we got home they called and told us they left part of the order out. They said they would deliver it to us. They arrived in just a few minutes no charge and when we opened the bag they threw in some free egg rolls. Just the best food and service! read more

The food is great! I've done take out and delivery. Either way, food comes out hot and fresh. Staff is so friendly and attentive. Restaurant itself is kept very clean and typical. I love their beef fried rice and I keep comparing it to other places and I just come back for theirs to fulfill my craving because other places just don't do it right. read more

This has been our family spot for almost 8 years. They remodeled inside and the place looks better. Overall the staff are always nice and place is very clean. Most importe food is always fresh and very tasty. read more

*****DO NOT ORDER THE CHOW MEIN IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT CHOW MEIN****Very disappointed in my to go order today, I ordered chicken chow mein which came with no noddles but rice, I called and asked the restaurant why my chow mein doesn't have noodles and they insisted that chow mein is not made with noodles but rice. I advised them that per the definition of chow mein it is " a Chinese-style dish of fried noodles with shredded meat or seafood and vegetables" and that I've never been served chow mein with rice... I also ordered the Mongolian beef which was basically peppers and onions and two slices of beef, also ordered the egg rolls and spring rolls, egg rolls didn't have chicken or pork like egg rolls typically do and were filled with veggies so basically a giant spring roll. read more

We lack good Chinese food in this area delivery or carry out. We have gone here for carry out a few times usually to get our teenage son General Tso's while the rest of the family gets Kanjana Thai food (which is very good). On this Sunday for ease of convenience we all ordered from Hunan Taste- my husband gets the Kung Pao chicken which was okay, my daughter got lemon chicken which was essentially some gristly chicken nuggets with lemon sauce, my son got General Tso's which he has the palate of a 16 year old boy filling the hole, not to mention the breading is 3/4 to 1/4 ratio chicken, and I tried the Phoenix chicken which was soso but kind of oily for white chicken breast in sauce, not the most flavorful. The kicker is we ordered fried wontons which were burned. Really? If the restaurant was packed and they had a line for carry out I could at least think they were so busy etc... However there was not a soul dining in which is the norm the other times I have picked up for my son. Tell tale sign- anyway the wontons literally shattered everywhere when you bit into them. It was obvious ... and they could not throw a new batch in the fryer? The whole $3.95 which was probably more like $1.00 cost to them! Won't be going back. read more

It was our anniversary. We would have gone out to dinner but due to the COVID-19 shutdown, that wasn't an option. So I picked up the phone and ordered our favorites: Roast Pork Egg Fu Yung and Happy Family. The owner suggested an appetizer and read my mind--Crab Rangoon. The order was ready on time and the portions were generous. I am enjoying leftovers for lunch. I have to say that we have never had better Crab Rangoon. Kudos! Stay safe and keep up the great work. read more

My husband and I have been skeptical to try this place, as we have had very experiences with local Chinese food places, but I'm really glad my husband decided to give them a try. We just moved to Lorton and had yet to find a good Chinese place nearby, and struck out at least 4-5 times, but we have finally found our spot! The food is always hot. I love the Kung Pao chicken! The other places we tried would put green peppers in their Kung Pao. Gross!!! This place actually puts in the real hot red peppers. So yummy! Definitely give them a try if you're in the fence!! read more

This food is amazing. I recently moved to the area and I've ordered from here twice. The menu has plenty of great options for everyone in the household. My son loves the BBQ spare ribs, the wings which are flavorful and taste fresh, and he loves the pork fried rice. All are great options , I decided on the Kung pao chicken and chicken with broccoli. The staff is very friendly , delivery is quick and safe during covid. This is a must try! You'll love it! It's worth it read more

Rude staff. Their menu is unavailable online so I called trying to order off memory from what I ordered the last time (it had been several months since I ate here last) and asked for crunchy chicken. Lady on the phone repeated "crunchy chicken okay" back to me. I pick up my order and when I get home, open up my bag to find cashew chicken. I call back thinking it's a mistake, the woman on the phone is very curt with me and says there's no such thing on the menu as crunchy chicken so she just gave me cashew instead. If it wasn't on the menu why would you let me order it? She didn't offer any sort of refund or exchange. Just said "we don't have crunchy chicken. sorry if you ordered something that's not on the menu." Extremely annoyed and will not be returning. In addition, the cashew chicken as a meal was disappointing. Think panda express quality. read more

Food is great and so is the staff and service. We love dining in but take out is also great. Love the chicken fried rice although I don't recommend the crab rangoons as they're a little sweet. Everything else we've had there was on point. read more

Just ordered this Saturday afternoon, there was an option for extra spicy and it was actually spicy! It came so fast and was delicious. Will definitely order again! read more

It's very well done Chinese food. My favorite is the kung pao chicken but everything is good.

We've lived in the Newington Forest area for 36 years. We began eating at Hunan Taste from the time it opened until present day. We have always had the best service and the food is awesome. HOWEVER, for the past two weekends, we've been unable to get in touch for delivery. We've been calling for delivery almost as long as they have been in business. I've never had them not answer. Now, after 36 years, I have to say, I'm done. As sad as it is, we'll have to find another restaurant to start going to for delivery. I hate that but it is what it is. So disappointed. read more

Best Chinese takeout I've had so far. Staff is friendly and courteous. My favorite go tos are the general tso, beef and broccoli and their fried rice of course read more

I had the Szechuan chicken combination platter which included my choice of steamed rice, egg roll, and hot and sour soup. Rice is steamed perfectly, the egg roll is freshly made (very crispy), and the hot and sour soup is spot on. The Szechuan chicken has a nice spicy kick but not too spicy. I love the thinly sliced celery & carrots and the chicken is sliced/cooked perfectly. The portion is large and I ended up saving half of it for lunch tomorrow. I will try the chicken fried rice and beef and broccoli next time and will update my review. read more

Hunan Taste - Chinese Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

We've been going here for over 30 years and have generally been happy with the food. We noticed a few years ago that the quality of the dishes has diminished. I ordered Moo Goo Gai Pan a few months ago and it had nothing but chicken and some snow peas. When I called to complain, the lady said that they had run out of the rest of the ingredients. Pretty sad, given that there is a Giant Food in the same shopping center! It would also be nice if they would state what is in the dish rather than just showing a picture. Some of the dishes are pretty straight forward, but some, not so much. Last night I ordered the chicken and eggplant. Very good, but did not realize that it had onions in it. Again, no way to know this from the picture, and I did not think to specify 'no onions.' To their credit, I ordered my dish specifying 'no salt or MSG' and I could tell that they did't put it in. There's enough in the soy sauce they use. Given that it is the only decent Chinese restaurant near us, we'll continue to patronize them, but not often. read more

I ordered from here last night and though the service was nice I woke up this morning throwing up...violently.... the only thing that changed in my diet was that I wanted to try a different spot for lo mein. I'd probably avoid for now read more

I ordered my food informing the server that I wanted no meat just veggies and rice. Again, reinforced I'm vegan just veggies and rice. When my food came out with egg - I let him know I can't eat egg, he got really defensive and told me I didn't tell him no egg. He was combative and and totally unpleasant. I actually liked my food, but the horrible customer service was too much. I will not return. read more

This place is hands down my favorite chinese food restaurant. I usually always order take out/delivery and they are very fast! My favorite on their menu are their crab rangoons. so yummy :) The restaurant itself is very peaceful and nice...I dined in once and the service was ok..not very impressive, but the food speaks for itself! read more

I've dined in and ordered take-out from this place several times & never had any complaints. Lately, the service & quality has gone down hill. After a long day of work, I didn't feel like cooking so I ordered take-out for my husband. I called ahead and requested two entrees and two appetizers. One of the entrees I ordered was the Shrimp Chow Mein. Ummm.... Why were there no noodles in it? NOT EVEN ONE?? It was basically a soupy hot mess of onions and a few shrimp. So basically they wasted my time. I drove back just to return that hot mess. Then the lady argued with my husband and said the noodles were in the bag. Ummm no they weren't! She was trying to play him like an idiot and probably thought he didn't know what Chow Mein looks like since he's white. Gosh what a bunch of idiots. I can NOT stand people who can't do their job correctly. I'm never going back here again. read more

Hunan Taste - Shrimp Chow Mein WITHOUT noodles. Waitress tried to argue with my husband that she put the noodles in the bag separately. LIE! - Chinese Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

First bite I took I knew I made a mistake. It was horrible and the service was just as bad. I called in a pickup order and before I was able to request that my chicken extra spicy she hung up. No worries, so when I arrived to pick up my order I asked for extra chili sauce to mix into it and she charged me almost two dollars for two TINY quarter sized little to-go cups. They have them offered in the restaurant at every table. Do they secretly watch you and charge their dine-in customers for every scoop they take. Absolutely ridiculous. Will not be back and will be stopping in to talk to the manager tomorrow. I have been to almost all Chinese restaurants in Springfield and this was hands down the worst. Do yourself a favor and go to Rolling Cooking, Golden Hong Kong, or Ding How. read more

I've had my share of authentic chinese food to bottom of the barrel takeout to panda express and pf changs. This place serves a mean sesame/general chicken and the portions are hearty delicious and huge. They get the hot and sour soup right too. I base authenticity on the quality of the hot and sour soup as a benchmark. The quality & price can't be beat. And it doesnt leave you regretting what you ate. I would definitely come again. Don't be afraid to check this place out. The mom and pop shops are a dying breed so help support them! On a side note some people said the decor is dated but I don't eat decor so I'm unaffected by that, unlike other restauranteurs. I could care less about the decor if the food is good- which it is. I think the decor here is just fine. read more

All I can say about this restaurant is that the food is great, the service is wonderful, and the staff is not only helpful, they actively engage to suggest dishes that meet my dietary constraints and that I might like! I have Celiac disease. As such I must limit myself to gluten free food. Because so much of Chinese cuisine is based on frying food with wheat and sauces that contain wheat, it is very difficult to find a Chinese restaurant that offers gluten free food. I found this restaurant on Yelp by reading the review posted by the owner's daughter. She posted that the chefs would be able to accommodate dietary restrictions. While I was optimistic when I read the review, I waited to pass judgement until I tried it. The food was wonderful. While some items were still "off limits" (egg rolls, for example) most items on the menu could be tailored to eliminate wheat. In addition, my wife gets migraines from MSG. They were able to eliminate MSG as well. I love the General Tso's chicken, Chicken or Bean Curd with Black Bean Sauce, Bangkok Curry Rice Noodles and Cashew Shrimp. My wife sticks to the Moo Shi Vegetables and Hot and Sour Soup. I'm looking forward to trying the Chow Foon next time I stop by. Thanks, Sophia and staff, for great food and a welcoming atmosphere! read more

Ordered "Chow Mein with chicken" and all I got was the veggies and meat and no noodles. Are you kidding me? Chow mein is a noodle dish. This is like calling a tomato sauce with meat ball "Spaghetti". This type of negligence is beyond unacceptable. Don't call yourself a Chinese food restaurant if you put rice instead of noodle in "Chow Mein". read more

Food spilled out in bag. The Spicy dishes were not Spicy. Overall they needed more flavor. When has Szechuan Bean Curd (it is actually MAPO TOFU) had corn, carrots, and peas? read more

We live close to this place and eat here all the time. It's a good value, portions are large and the food always tastes fresh. Delivery is ridiculously quick, I have no idea how they do it. The food here is consistently very good, and we've never had an issue. I always get the beef and broccoli, it hasn't disappointed me once in the past four years! Mark my review as useful, friend and follow me! read more

Just meh Chinese food. Lunch specials are ok but the place should give you a spring roll and a little bit of soup to go along with it if you are eating in. I like a bit of variety but with no option for a cup of wanton or egg drop soup and an egg roll, I won't be back. Only 'options' for lunch specials are white or fried rice. And the fried rice kinda sucked. read more
