Really good sichuan food, giant portions, authentic…read more Been meaning to swing by this place. Often cited as one of the best sichuan places around, had to make the trek to see. Outside is very much a busy shopping plaza in not the best part of town. Inside is a completely different story. Very clean and spacious, lots of booths and tables. Decorated well and a lot to see. The staff were friendly but there was a slight language barrier. We fumbled through the menu and found some bites to try. Food came out relatively quick, and that was a bit to manage because there were a lot of plates brought rather quickly. We got pics and dug in. The bites were flavored well. Nothing felt too greasy or under seasoned. The white pepper chicken was very crispy. But not a lot of chicken on each bite. The sweet and sour soup was both sweet and sour, but balanced enough that you could keep on eating it. The dumplings were fresh noodles and the filling was spiced well. The only flop was the spare ribs. Really tasty sauce, but very little meat on the bone. Had to suck on the bones to scrape enough meat off to make it a proper appetizer. It tasted good, just was not easy to eat. Price for the area was high for the neighborhood. It's got the quality and the flavor to command that price easily, but it doesn't match the stores. It's really good, but know that you're getting the real deal sichuan experience. Expect some heat, some saucy fingers, and some bones, and you'll get some really good bites

I am a healthy person with a normal digestive system but the next day, all hell broke loose, and I do mean loose. The food tasted o.k. but there was speculation on my part that something was just not right after the next morning. Thinking back during the ordering, the gal that took my order didn't even look at me in the face, like she was hiding something. Found out, something could have been off with the food.

Opening the cover of the rice, you are presented with maybe 10 nice lean strips of chicken laying over the rice in a row. The rice itself has green peas, carrots, added.

Black Bamboo has been our go-to Chinese spot since 2018. For years, the quality was impeccable and…read morethe food was genuinely phenomenal -- the kind of place you stop looking for alternatives because you already found the best one. Our usual order is pretty consistent: roast pork fried rice, General Tso's, egg rolls, white rice, chicken lo mein, and crab rangoon. We know exactly what it's supposed to taste like, which is why the last few orders have stood out. There's been a noticeable decline. The lo mein noodles seem smaller than they used to be. The fried rice came out sloppily cooked -- it honestly still tasted like plain white rice, with none of the wok flavor that used to make it worth ordering. And the General Tso's didn't taste fresh the way it always had; it came across as sitting rather than made to order. I'm writing this as a longtime customer, not a one-off complaint. We've spent a lot of money here over the better part of a decade because the food earned it. I'm hoping this is a temporary dip -- a kitchen change, a busy stretch, something fixable -- and that the quality comes back to what it was. We'd love to keep ordering.

Hmmm.... Good but not good enough. First off: The prices on…read moretheir online menu doesn't match the prices at the restaurant, be aware. All items are $2 to $3 more expensive in restaurant. Crazy/Drunken noodles are not: They're Chinese Chow Foon, and they weren't that good. Couldn't eat half of it. Scallops in garlic sauce? Avoid The scallops had a funny taste. Stale? Bleh.... And the icing on the cake: The only waitress got into a yelling contest with one of the employees. (owner?). They were screaming at each other and everyone in the dining room could hear it... It reminded me of some episodes of Kitchen Nightmare. I was expecting Gordon Ramsay to come out any minute, but no. Once was enough. Plenty of other (hopefully better) options less than 5 minutes from there.

There is no better place that I'm aware of in the Hartford County area and probably farther but I have to be honest GREAT TASTE is so good I don't venture to far cuz its usually greasy and disappointing, They know my name and welcome me not because they ask for it when you call but because I've been a fan for so long. They know my face and are genuinely happy to see me. I do feel like I'm restaurant family. The food is fresh and delicious. The service is awesome whether eating in or taking out. The menu selections cover everyone's tastes and you will find your favorite dish listed. The Tangerine Beef and Garlic Shrimp are out of this world good! Number ONE #1 hands down!!!
