Sesame Chicken with extra vegetables.
Bella B.

Take out only. Tue-Fri 11-830; Sat 12-11pm; Sun 12-8pm; closed Mon. Tasty Sesame Chicken dinner combo; comes with fried rice and eggroll; $2 upcharge for extra vegetables; $18+change total. Fried rice was plain; lacked flavor and moisture; eggroll was good; crunchy, flavorful filling. Meat is halal. Nice, quick service. Busy. Looked messy behind desk. Seemed overpriced. Prefer Ping's on Auburn Road.

The Secret is in the sauce. TLC also

I remember many years ago, this family had a restaurant in Oxford; Golden Dragon. I use to go when visiting friends in that area. Some of my favorite Chinese food in the state of Michigan. I heard they re opened a new restaurant under a new name. So when I traveled home I made a point to drive that way to get some of the locals best. Located in this big plaza while heading north it was tough to see signage. But GPS led me so fortunately I knew where to look. Plenty of parking outside so no issue in the lot. Few people waiting for carry out, was greeted with a warm welcome when entering. They were busy so I let em know I was in no rush. Menus so big and I was by myself so i ordered more than I needed but I wanted to try more than one thing. It's a bad habit but I do it often. A favorite of mine not found where I live now in Florida; is the Almond Boneless Chicken dish. I ordered that combo style which came with fried rice and egg roll. Crab Ragoon, pot stickers & golden bricks for dessert. Plenty if room to dine in if you have the time, I went carry out and rushed back home which was a 30min drive. The food still held well, and the chicken was still crispy. 100% would have been even better there but I didn't have the time. Both apps were held well and tasted great. The pot stickers sauce was spicy which was perfect. As always the Lam family was working and saw both husband & wife working together and serving plenty of patrons. Always good to see them healthy and working hard. Next time in Michigan will stop by again. Great food, family owned awesome hospitality.

Honestly, for Chinese takeout it doesn't really get much better! You can tell that this place is run by a family that cares about the quality of the food. Most Chinese places try to go for cheap and fast food but forget about the quality. Somehow this place has managed to keep the speed quick and the price low while still pumping out very delicious, well made Chinese food. I loved their Chinese donut desert and the almond chicken wasn't too breaded or fried. I took one of my carry out boxes over to my friends house by accident... I never got that back This seriously has to be one of the most underrated Chinese food places in the area. I will definitely be coming back!

Lam Taste has the highest prices I have ever seen at a Chinese carryout restaurant. They have large portions, but not the best tasting food around. The chicken fried rice ($14) was one of the better in the area. The almond boneless chicken ($17) was pretty good. The gravy color was a little more yellow than I'm used to but the flavor was there. The sweet and sour chicken ($16) was just okay. The sweet and sour sauce was watery with a weird flavor.

very basic broccoli chicken
Tehmina W.

ordered late night from doordash. I was super happy to see a Chinese option open so late. I ordered the broccoli chicken that was $16.99 and a small wonton soup that was $5.99. The portion size was pretty big. My wonton soup was good different then most , it had a good amount of veggies in it , defiantly worth the price. The broccoli chicken however came with plain white rice and nothing more. On the menu you it simply says broccoli chicken so you can only assume you will get what most Chinese reasturants give and that is fried rice and an egg roll. The chicken wasn't bad however it wasn't real good either. The sauce was like water and the broccoli was hardly cooked. Had the broccoli been cooked more it could have really helped since they have such a nice portion. after a few bites I tossed it. I may give this place a second chance due to there being some great positives however I'll keep in mind the white rice situation and ask for fried.

Almond chicken

My husband and I were so excited to find Lam Taste when it opened a few months ago! We've ordered twice, and loved it both times! The Singapore Chicken is awesome -light curry flavor. My husband had the General Tso's chicken and we both declared it the best we'd ever had -lightly crunchy and not too spicy. We've also tried the Sweet and Sour Chicken, good but standard. The Almond Chicken doesn't boast any bold flavors but was a delicious cut of chicken. The egg rolls are good, and the fried rice is basic but goes well with the entrees. We've done carry out both times, as it doesn't seem like there is space to dine in (only 2 tables?) The attached pictures are of the almond chicken and General Tso's, but only half the amount in each container because we couldn't wait to dig in! The two combo plates were enough for 2 meals for us both!

Finally, REAL CHINESE FOOD! You will not be disappointed. They cook everything fresh, even the soup. Nothing is sitting under warmers. The egg rolls are amazing (I want one just thinking about them). Call ahead, walk-in or order delivery via restaurant connection.

Found a gem this past Saturday. The food is straight fire. The owner and staff are great. The owner and I talked for a few minutes and he suggested mixing Asian mustard with the plum sauce which was crack lol. I will be back soon

Gai Kow - Flavor was very weak. Would not order again.

We have found our place to satisfy our cravings for Chinese and Korean food. How did we not know…read morethis restaurant was here when we have lived in the area and driven past it so many times? Located in a strip mall, it is an inconspicuous gem that can be easily overlooked. Nothing fancy; just a delicious selection of authentic dishes prepared from scratch, served piping hot by a hardworking staff at reasonable prices. What's not to like? When we walked in the door, the place was full of Asian guests. Our servers were efficient and helpful yet so busy they did not really have the time to be friendly and chatty. It took us two visits to fully understand their menu selections. They have a large American Cantonese Chinese selection menu. They are also known for their dim sun menu which comes with helpful pictures. Here is the gem.... Ask for their authentic Chinese menu for more authentic dishes. On our first visit, we tried a variety of dim sun dishes and loved each one. Beautiful and delicious. Enjoyed the variety of sauces at the table to add flavors. The prices were reasonable and the portions enough for two. On our second visit, we discovered the Chinese menu and ordered an array of our favorite dishes. They were all wonderful with fresh ingredients, heavy on the veggies while light on the meat (fine for us though others may prefer more meat) with the familiar flavors we enjoy. We left this meal with leftovers that lasted us for two more meals. Can't wait to come back and work our way through their menu. Based on other Yelp reviews, Cheng's would not have caught my eye. It is very understated and one could easily miss the authentic offerings available. Be patient. Ask for ALL their menus. Enjoy.

I love the soy noodles, those are so chewy and savory. The cream buns were warm and I love the cookie topping. The BBQ pork buns are just a classic and were very tasty here. I always love the soy skin rolls, shrimp rolls, and sticky rice. I liked their chili oil and the sweet sauce at the table was a nice touch since one child loves that type of sauce. Everything was good. It was about average price in my opinion. We got eight dishes and it was not too expensive and we did end up with a few leftovers. I would definitely come back to this place for more dim sum.

We were first ones in but by time we left many tables full. The lady who greeted us and served us was super friendly! There were original menus on the tables when we came in which we absolutely loved and ordered off of. She also brought us over American Chinese Style menus. I love original menus gad photos :) Portions are large and my friend and I shared two entrees which came with small bowl of rice for each of us. We ordered Spicy Chicken and Sliced Pork with garlic sauce. Both were delicious but the Spicy Chicken was my fave. Super favorable. Perfect spice level and the chicken was deliciously breaded and fried without feeling heavy or too breaded. Since this is a fusion restaurant, I would love to come back to also try some Korean dishes. We paid at counter at end of meal. Dining room isn't fancy but had a nice clam vibe. Definitely will go back!

It wasn't crazy busy but I know our server had a few tables. We waited about 10+ minutes for our drinks to the point that I walked up to the bar to grab our own. It was 95 degrees outside and we were really in need of something to drink. Our food (2 kids meals and a gf meal) were eventually served. I requested extra sauce on the side and an extra kid meal to split. No sauce and it seemed like the 3rd kid meal wasn't entered as it was served after we were done. My meal (spicy Chang's chicken full size) was meager at best. I am used to taking some food home but finished it all. I'm thinking the portions are now also reduced yet not the prices. The kids meal seemed to have more good than my $20 dish. We had to ask for refill on our waters and flag the server down. Why though? Lastly, the bill came and no fortune cookies. In the grand scheme of things ids no big deal I guess but when we go frequently and this seems to be a regular occurrence, it makes me not want to go back and support. I still tipped +20% but I know I should not have. I just feel bad not tipping. Further, that server was also not new, seem them several times there. P.F. Chang's, get your affairs in order. You cannot sustain a business in the village of Rochester keeping up such foolery and ridiculousness. You can do better. Sincerely, A soon to be ex rewards member.
