Oriental Taste is great if you want cheap, tasty and convenient food. The day after the blizzard, this was one of the few places open and I was very happy to patronize it again. I'd been here before and the food was always good and well priced, as the reviewer below noted. They use fresh veggies, none of those weird canned mushrooms that many cheap Chinese places use. In keeping with the somewhat healthy menu is the amount of sauce they use. Cheaper places rely on tons of sauce and grease for flavor, but the amount is pretty reasonable here. Another major plus was speed-two dinners were done in under ten minutes. One unfortunate thing about this restaurant is the name. We tried to look up the menu in order to order ahead, but finding the website/menu for this place was impossible because the name is just not search engine friendly. Many Google search results later, we just showed up and ordered in the restaurant. Happily we didn't have to wait long. If you plan to frequent this place, make note of the website above. I wish I had looked it up on Yelp! read more

Gotten take out a bunch of times, it's always been ready when they say it will be. Singapore mei fun noodles are delicious and they make it extra spicy for a good kick. Rice is alright, typical fried rice. Dumplings are delicious. Crab Rangoon are too sweet for my liking. Chicken and broccoli is great. read more

Came in here for the first time in years and it's so great. It's tough to find good boneless spare ribs...and man do they have it! Brought my gf for the first time and she's loving it. read more

I have been here maybe 50 times over the years and never wrote a review. Every time the food is perfect and delicious! I have never had a bad meal here! Take out only which is great you can get comfortable and have some good food. I think oriental and Asia grill are the two best options in the state read more

I have sampled quite a few Chinese take out places and for the niche, the food and customer experience it was well above average. Here's why: I ordered by phone for 3 people 1. We were able to find the menu online through Yelp with no difficulty and make a concise list before calling. 2. No problems in the ordering process, with explaining or repeating myself due to a language problem. 3. On the phone, the woman taking orders was familiar with menu so referring to items by description rather than code (eg. B24) was no problem. I even described food I didn't find on the menu and got a good representation of what I was asking for. She made good suggestions throughout the process. She reviewed the order for accuracy. It was right the first time. I ordered Egg Rolls and the woman asked me if I wanted hot mustard which i did. 4. I asked for an ETA, got one (20 minutes), showed up on time, the meal was ready and there were no mistakes after getting home. 5. Packing was high quality styrofoam, heat preserving boxes. Each box was labeled in pen with its contents. The entire order was placed in a shopping bag with high quality handles made from cord (not paper), a thick paper bag and a form fitting piece of cardboard at the bottom of the bag. The sauces where on the side and packed individually. I received no cheap plastic mustards packs that needed cutting or ripping. No sauces were provided in those distasteful little clear plastic pouches with higher than average squirt potential. 6. Nothing leaked on the ride home. No stains on the bag even though I ordered a quart of Hot & Sour soup. The soup was placed in a thick plastic container with a top and re-bagged in thin plastic and taped. Other sauces and commonly spilled fluids were isolated in a similar way. 7. I met a coworker when coming to pick up my order. This was my first time but my coworker is a repeat customer. 8. The food was well above expectations. The quality of the fried dumplings was better than typical. The breading was thick and the size was very large comparatively. The Szechuan Beef with peanuts I ordered was not sugary or greasy but flavorful. The meat was a little tough, but quite acceptable. My teenaged daughter made similar comments about the quality and goodness of the food. 9. The Restaurant was clean, workers were courteous and prompt. 10. Satisfied; we'll come again and recommend to others. 11. They take credit and debit cards. 12. Parking was easy, nice lot with fresh asphalt, uncrowded, easy to park close. read more

So convenient and fast! Food was good too. Cafeteria style so awesome for on the go lunch. Staff is very attentive and nice. I've even gone early as soon as they opened at 11. They don't bring the food out until 1130 but she was nice enough to have them pack my food quick and was fresh read more

Good service and good food no msg. You don't get that tired feeling after eating it. Definitely a take out restaurant though. Have ordered multiple times never any inconsistencies and no complaints read more

I lived in NYC for 11 years and this food is pretty close to NYC Chinese. EXCELLENT noodles, beef teriyaki is outstanding, dumplings and sesame chicken all delicious. Owners are so nice and the place is super clean! It's my new Chinese place! So good!! read more

Probably the best Chinese restaurant in Cranston area! Food is very fresh and flavorful. Good for take out. Not sure about dine in but they do have some tables. If you are in Cranston area and craving for Chinese food, try this place out. Enjoy! read more

This is my go-to place for Chinese. Great food, I can only speak for take-out service and it's always ready when I arrive. Nice people working there. The portions are really great for the price but any Chinese never seems as good the next day like cold pizza could. So finish what you started or you may be sorry the next day if you're stuck at home in a blizzard and can't get out and got nothing at home. Since I'm a take-out customer I'm not going to say anything about the interior or the seating. I mean I could, but my line goes from the door to the counter and right back out so that's all I got. read more

Definitely worth the trip!!! Great food!! Good size portions!! Food is nice and fresh , not greasy.

I was excited to try this place because of the reviews. But I was HIGHLY disappointed when I did. I ordered the Singapore noodles and an egg roll. The egg roll was chewy and stale, the noodles lacked salt and where a little slimy. Definitely not coming back. read more

Amazing! One of my favorite places I'll order from. Never end up with that nasty feeling after eating their food. Their Crab-ragoons are amazing. Same with the pan friend dumplings. read more

I really like this place as a lunch time stop because they have an a la carte selection of the most popular chinese food dishes. The staff is always friendly and I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for an order. I think what really puts this place over the top is the amount of food you receive in an order for the price. Many times when I have this place for lunch I don't need to eat dinner that night. They fill a take out container with two main items with fried rice or lo-mein, that and a 20oz soda will set you back about $8.50. This place never let's me down. Please note this location has very limited seating, less than a dozen seats. Dining in is probably not the best option. read more

Have been a customer for many years and the food is consistently fresh and delicious! My family loves the lo mein, dumplings, Beef teriyaki, and many others! The service is also excellent--super friendly and welcoming! read more

Consistently good, fresh tasting foods for years. The beef teriyaki is great. The chicken teriyaki is great. We love the Crab rangoon. Chow mi fun is delicious. Fried rice is great. Lo mein is great. Pork spareribs are great. We are very happy to have a good place for takeout close to home read more

After moving to Cranston we searched and searched for a decent Chinese food place (the place that *everyone* loves is actually quite awful). We were so excited to find this location. They do an amazing family combo dinner that is generous and reasonable. I only gave four stars as I don't always love their egg rolls or fried rice. But, despite the hit or miss of these two things, this is our go-to spot. read more

Out of this world fresh food, every time. Love the wonton soup and Nime Chow. Wish there were more tables to sit in. Yet, we love to order out and get the freshest food around. Super nice owners. read more

We were about to order a late dinner & I was in he mood for Moo Goo Gai Pan. I haven't had it in 15+ years, but when I called the usual place I get Chinese from they didn't have all the ingredients for it, so I looked around & saw that Oriental Taste had a 4.5 rating with a significant amount of reviews so I called. We ordered the MGGP, house special fried rice, crab Rangoon & shrimp udon. Everything was excellent! This is definitely my new Chinese food spot read more

I have ate here about a half dozen times and each time it's been pretty good. This is more or less a take out establishment although they do have a few tables. They have a steam table with prepared items where you can select an entree and have a choice of fried rice or lo mein. It is pretty much the same concept as a fast food chinese resturant you'd find in the food court of a mall. The offer this express lunch each day from 11am to 3pm. The also have a regular menu. The prices are pretty cheap and the service is quick. The place is good if you're in a hurry and want chinese take out. The food overall is pretty good. read more

Seeing is that I'm from MA, I know good Chinese food. Now that my mother moved to RI it's been difficult to find a good place. Oriental Taste is that place. The food is delicious. The family meal for 2 is 17.50 and delicious!! So much food!! The crab ran goons are amazing!! The food here is great and the closest I've had to back in MA. read more

It is difficult for us to order out since our son has severe shellfish and peanut allergies. They were extremely accommodating and took the time to find out what was potentially hazardous, made 2 dishes special order and separated the 3 items that he couldn't have in a separate bag. I would strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone who shies away from Asian food due to food allergies. A+ read more

Hands down the best Chinese restaurant in the area! The vegetables and sauces are very fresh, not too salty or tasting of too many additives - unlike many local Chinese places. Large portions sizes give you great value for your money. The lunch menu looks like a great deal too - will have to check it out next time. Service is great, the whole staff is so friendly. My husband and I had egg drop soup, hot and sour soup (both soups served HOT and fresh), veggie lo mein, and Singapore noodles. I have also previously tried the wonton soup, crab rangoon, and vegetable stir fry. All delicious! read more

Our favorite place. Large portions, and their family dinners you cannot beat the price! Best price for the quality hand down. Keep up the good work! read more

I live not too far from this take out establishment and it is quite frankly the best Chinese take out for miles. Everything is made fresh, there's no msg, and it doesn't weigh you down. The food is so delicious and the owners are so friendly. I definitely enjoy talking to them when I come to pick up my order. Their lunchtime special great too. If you come before 3pm you can get a huge plate of hot, delicious food for less than $8. You can't go wrong with that. Everything on the menu is great, but my favorites are the wonton soup, crab Rangoons, udon noodles, and Thai noodles to name a few. This place does not deliver, but it's totally worth the easy ride over. read more

Awesome food great lo mein and general chicken... Lunch express good too and good price big portions

I consistently find the food at Oriental Taste to be the BEST Chinese Food available in my area. The service is fast and friendly. I especially enjoy their Lunch Specials where you can pick one, two, or three items with your choice of pork fried rice or lo-mien. Check them out! read more

Disgusting. The beef teriyaki was so chewy and gross, the rice was nasty and the egg rolls are HORRIBLE. My boyfriend threw up after he ate and I've been up all night so sick. I used to like this place but I will never get it after tonight! Absolutely disgusting read more

We have been getting to go food from this place for over 6 years. It has one of the best tasting as well as generous portion of take out chinese food. Highly recommend it read more

Very good express lunch menu. Nice friendly staff. Fair amount of food for the money.

Our first visit here, based on other Yelp! reviews. Have to say that we're very impressed! We each enjoyed a combo plate and shared an appetizer. The food is fresh, tasty, and well prepared. We were impressed by how clean this place is as well. We're certainly going back! read more

This was our first time getting takeout at Oriental Taste. We used our GPS to find it. It was part of a small strip of stores on Plainfield Pike. Now we know exactly where it's located, which is good because we will be going back for more takeout. I called once before placing our order to find out if delivery was available. The woman who took my call was so apologetic and courteous. Since we are in the midst of a pandemic, I was hoping we didn't have to stray from the house. However, since delivery was not an option, we decided to give it a try, so I called in our order. The woman again was very pleasant and answered my questions as I gave the order. My husband and I grabbed our masks and hit the road in search of the restaurant. We passed right by it twice, but the third time was the charm, and we found this little treasure. My husband went in to get our order. A clear window separated him from the cashier who told him that even their coins are sanitized! After he paid by sliding the payment under the clear window, my husband stepped to the side and retrieved our order from behind another window. What a great way to handle takeout, especially during a pandemic. And it gets even better . . . the food was delicious! We have been disappointed with so many other restaurants, but we are happy to have found that Oriental Taste has met, or possibly exceeded, our expectations! We'll be back there again, and I will update this post if necessary. read more

Better than average Chinese food. Always fresh and hot. I like the pepper chicken. We also sometimes order the family meals where you can choose from a list of main dishes and comes with fried rice and eggrolls. Its close to home and consistently good. read more

I came here last week for lunch. Service was friendly, place was clean, price was very reasonable and food was very good. Great place for a quick lunch. read more
