    Tom kha soup large
    Anoop I.

    We visited this nice neighborhood Thai place in Oak Hill on a quiet weekday evening. We ordered a panang curry with vegetables and a large bowl of tom kha soup with vegetables. The tom kha was great, it had a good tangy flavor and it carried the meal for me. The curry was a bit less of a hit from my perspective. I wished it was more creamy with more coconut milk; it was a tad thin. The seating was wooden benches which were not quite comfortable. The cushions which were a decent attempt at padding the benches kept sliding. Service was friendly but slow; we had to ask a couple of times to get warm water. Due to proximity we'll probably visit again.

    Food was 10/10! Would definitely come back. Tried the yellow curry and pad kee mao and they both had so much flavor. Prices are affordable too. Service was good and we would definitely come back.

    Monday it was exceptionally cold in Austin. We are in town for a job & cold weather makes me want Thai food. We were greeted as we walked in which started us off on a good note. We ordered Hot Jasmine tea which was perfect. We ordered Crab Rangoon which I must say is the best I've had in forever. There was an ample size filling & the crusts was cooked perfectly. I usually don't like the dip because it's too sweet but this was very fresh & spicy ...Yummy! My husband had the Pad Kee Mao & really enjoyed it. I had Basil Fried Rice with chicken ( could have used a little more chicken) it was good too. The plates had a nice visual presentation as well. All in all a good experience & we will be back.

    We picked up takeout from here the other day (easy process) because we were hoping to find good Thai food near our house. While i still think we have some searching to do, Thai Taste offers a decent alternative. The pad thai was a bit too dry for my taste, and the pineapple fried rice didn't have the punch of flavor I'm used to. However, again, not a ton of options for Thai food in this part of town, so still a solid choice!

    I was very tempted to gatekeep this place but I just can't. My family loves pad Thai and shrimp spring rolls and have tried several places around town. This is my first time here and I just kind of stumbled upon it after getting my haircut next door, but I'm so glad I did! It's so good! The Pad Thai is kind of sweet but so good. I get mine without egg, bean sprouts, or green onions because I like it simple. I immediately texted my sisters to tell them we have to try this place! The restaurant is closing 10/10/22 for renovations for I think a month, but when they reopen, come! The soft spring rolls are good- the peanut sauce is hard to beat! The Thai tea is also very sweet because it has sweetened condensed milk, but still really good! I'll definitely be back.

    Pad Thai with Chicken

    Where to begin? Having moved from north to south Austin a couple of years ago I was bummed thinking that I was leaving all the good Asian food Austin had to offer. Fortunately, I was wrong. Thai Taste is a hidden gem of southwest Austin and offers a wide variety of traditional and fusion Thai food. I love their pad thai and shrimp spring rolls. They're a must have every time I visit. Over time, I've tried other dishes and these do not disappoint. Instead, Thai Taste surprises me every time. The service and staff are great too whether you are dining or grabbing take out. The restaurant has a calm and quiet ambiance and fortunately draws a good crowd daily (from what I've seen), which is a testament to how good their food is. I recommend you check them out!

    Hubby and I dined here last week for lunch and it was quite pleasant. The interior decor is simple and clean. We were quickly seated and served. Nice portion of food at a reasonable price. Hubby ordered the Tiger Cry (8oz steak) while I enjoyed the Pad Garpow Kai Dow (stir-fried grounded chicken). I asked our server to make my dish mild and it was very delicious. We do hope to visit soon - highly recommended!

    Beef salad
    Rachel G.

    Got delivery from here this weekend, and I was pretty impressed. This may be my new go-to. The fried rice was a large portion, and tasted great. The noodle soup was yummy as well, although the pork was very dry, but this may have been due to it being delivered. I had a love/hate relationship with The beef salad. The beef had an overwhelming charred flavor and there were too many onion slices, but it was super fresh and the dressing was delicious. Really made me want to try the waterfall beef. I'm glad to discover this place and hope I can check it out in person soon.

    Yellow Curry
    Ivy S.

    I'm usually not a fan of shopping center restaurants, because for whatever reason my brain decided that, it's probably the aesthetics, not sure. This place is a diddy! So this place, shopping center and all, is on point. The Thai Tea looks dank, haven't tried but it's on the list. They serve the drinks in these thin metal cups that have these intricate designs pressed in them. They are weirdly cool and keep your drinks cold. Might be the original Yeti, who knows. I got the Yellow Curry dish today which didn't disappoint. It has a thinner broth than I'm used to, making it almost closer to a soup. I think next time I'll just dump the steamed rice in the bowl of curry. Lerved it!

The staff are also so efficient and kind whenever I've visited. I always get a beef noodle soup and douse it in spicy sauce and vinegar. The broth is always so warm and comforting and they give very generous portions of meat. The noodles are my favorite part as they are so long and thick and you can taste how fresh they are. They soak up the broth perfectly. As a pairing, I always get the mix dumpling plate. You can really tell that they make them in-house because of how unique and fresh they taste. The dumpling skins are so light and taste amazing. A top-tier spot in Austin.

I ordered hot and sour pork soup. I had never had hot and sour soup with meat. Portions were generous, ingredients fresh, and the food arrived smoking hot. The noodles were soft, smooth and flavorful. The pork inside looked like tiny meatballs. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the restaurant was completely full and customers were continuing to flow in. Because the restaurant is rather small, I had to wait about 20 minutes for my order. Jim, one of the owners, said if I had ordered 3 items it would take about 45 minutes, that's why I went with one. You could easily tell that many folks at the restaurant were regulars, which means the food, service or both were exceptional. Definitely will be returning to Three Gorges...

The cumin seeds give it that signature earthy, aromatic flavor and you get a slight tingly numbing spice sensation from the chilis and peppercorn. The lamb is not overly gamey, but it still does taste like lamb so if you are not really a lamb fan, I'd choose something else. - Jumping Fish: A very popular dish! Tender white fish fillets that is so soft it melts in your mouth. It is in a flavorful oil and broth that is refreshing from the fresh jalapenos. It is a savory dish, yet still relatively mild. It commes with napa cabbage as well! This was my favorite dish and I loved the flavor combined with the white rice. - Mapo Tofu (Vegetarian): They have one with pork as well, but I got the vegetarian version. Silky soft tofu cubes in that signature mapo tofu sauce and numbing peppercorns. Despite the appearance of all the dishes, none of them were very spicy. Overall, a comforting soft, spicy, savory dish with a slight tingle. - Eggplant in garlic sauce: A deliciously sweet and umami garlic sauce. The eggplants could have been a bit more cooked through in my opinion though since it was still quite firm. I loved it still! Note that all the dishes to me were not spicy just had an underlying subtle spice or tingle (like a finishing flavor note if you will). Also, since it is sichuan the dishes are on the oilier side. You order with the cashier at the front and pay up front as well. Food comes out quickly. It is a small space with three rows of tables (maybe around 12-15 tables give or take), so it does fill up fast. I went at around 5:40 PM on a Thursday and there was no wait, but by the time we finished eating at around 7PM, the restaurant was full. House of Three Gorges was hyped up a lot on my social media feed and through word of mouth, so I came in with high expectations. Luckily, they did not disappoint.
