    Spiced cucumbers
    Cheryl V.

    Waterford Lakes~This amazing spot has never been on my radar until today. Although we are not used to eating Szechuan Chinese food, we definitely wanted to give it a shot. None of us can eat spicy, which is apparently exactly what Szechuan Chinese food is! lol That being said, the hostess was more than accommodating in making sure everything was prepared without spice!! Everything was made fresh and with a lot of delicious ingredients. We did not feel like we missed anything as far as taste goes because we did not have the spice. There are several dishes on the menu that I am not familiar with, but through a little bit of a language barrier, I was able to figure out some things that we would enjoy. Definitely give this place a shot if you are looking for some delicious Chinese food. See below...pictures and explanations of what we ordered.

    My sister found this spot on yelp. We took my 75 year old aunt out to dinner. She never goes outside and only wants fast food for dinner. Uh No. Not on my watch! She's a complainer, and in her old age, hates everyone and every thing.. except babies. On the drive over she asked about 10 times where we were going, so we kept repeating Yummy Taste. She got very upset thinking we were only telling her how the food tasted. She didn't like the name. But when we ate the food- she said it was o.k. Ok! Ok??? We ordered the spicy pork ribs- I loved them! Green beans- flavorful. House fried rice- delicious! Salt and pepper shrimp- yummy! The three of us were extremely satisfied! The bill total for those four dishes and 3 sodas was $70. I'd come back! It's a definite try!!!

    Mapo Tofu

    Very authentic spot with great food. i got the spicy beef rice noodle soup and the mapo tofu. For dessert I had the sweet rice cakes. Will be back for all of that.

    This is our go-to order whenever we need good chinese food.  The flavors are authentic and have not been disappointed.

    Stopped in for lunch with a friends. Started off with the poach chicken in chili oil. It was ok, a little spicy, served cold and it a half a chicken chopped so expect bones. That why for me this dish was ok. Then got the spicy and crispy chicken (it called other names at other places). Ok the chicken was very good, some heat. With theirs they don't use a lot of the red chili which I liked and not many peppercorns which I don't like. Friend got the fried rice and enjoyed it. I got chicken fried rice to go for tomorrow. Will be back.

    Super authentic chinese food. Portion is surprisingly large. It's my first time eating here. So far I enjoyed it so much. I will Definitely come back.

    Griddle Shrimp @tiffhuangry

    One of my sister's go-to Chinese restaurants when the fam is in town is Yummy Taste - and she doesn't even like spicy foods. So I was definitely intrigued. We had a large table of at least 8 people so I was ready for the full spread. We got two orders of the stir fried green beans because my sister claimed one plate would not be enough for the entire table. And it was definitely a good call because while each plate did have a lot of green beans, they were just that good. The rest of the dishes we ordered were all pretty tasty, with my favorites being the Griddle Shrimp, the Mung Bean Jelly with Chili, the Braised Sliced Fish and the Cumin Beef Noodles. We also tried a soup that I can't remember the name of that was good, as well as the Sautéed Scallion Beef and Sweet & Sour Ribs. So you can't go wrong ordering any of these dishes. Overall, I just can't wait for my next trip to Orlando to dine at Yummy Taste again!

    So when you walk it's small with bamboo decor. Don't be phased because you can smell the food it's original and unforgettable. We come here a lot because it satisfies every time. It's a hidden secret because the food is incredibly satisfying. Like mom's cooking. The perfectly steamed fish with tofu has the sauce that you want to pour over your rice. Love love the braised pork omg!!! Last night we had something new without the soup don't remember the name it had thinly sliced potatoes, chicken, beef and shrimp spicy and satisfying. My favorite is the sweet'n and sour pork ribs. So this is our multi visit restaurant monthly. Go hungry portions are big

    If you want something spicy, this is a place for you. They really can make the food very spicy. It is great during winter time. Because heat warm the body. We got the spicy broil fish. It is a white fish in traditional spicy sauce. I can said while I am eating and sweating in the same time. I can tolerate the spicy but still make me sweat. The second dish is the wife and husband slice meat. You can make is spicy if you request. Basically is internal organs and slice beef. It is great to go with rice wine. The third dish is the intestines noodles. The intestines was process with flavor. Overall service is good. Restaurant is above average.

    Insanely delicious food. Definitely one of the best Chinese restaurants in Orlando. Every dish we ordered was a hit. The staff is also very friendly and accommodated an allergy in the party, which we appreciated. Definitely a must try!

    H5 - Boiled Sliced Fish in Hot Sauce
    Sarah S.

    Awwwww, snap! This new Szechuan restaurant took over the old VLC vegan space in the Waterford Towers plaza by Papa Lozzi's and Castaways. Don't get me wrong, I liked VLC, but I looooove some good, spicy Szechuan food. The menu has a lot of traditional items you're not going to find on any takeout Chinese places. If you're new to Szechuan food, maybe look at the menu before hand and google or browse the Yelp pics so you're prepared. The menu has just the name of the dish and no description so if you don't have a general idea of what it is, then you're gonna be confused. The menu is my main reason for not giving a full 5 stars because it's lacking in descriptions and also some more variety/options. I'd really like to see more appetizers like my absolute favorite Szechuan Wontons. The diced we got were the beef w/ tofu pudding and the fish in a hot sauce. Both were incredible. And spiiiiicy. I really love these spicy dished that make my mouth tingle and have so much incredible flavor. My only complaint is the amount of peppercorns. I really don't like biting down on a whole peppercorn so I end up painstakingly trying to fish them out from every bite. I guess it keeps me from eating too fast, so that's not all that bad. I will be keeping an eye on the menu and hoping to see some new items pop up and will definitely be back.

    If you're looking for a place that serves up fiery but delicious Szechuan cuisine, this is the place to go to. Located in a rather nondescript spot in Waterford Lakes, it's very easy to miss. But if you find it, it really is a hole in the wall. The people here are super friendly and very willing to explain the menu to you if you have any questions, and service as a whole is great. While some of the portion sizes may be smaller than most places, they really make up for it in terms of flavor. The fried pork had a really light but crispy batter on the outside that soaked in all of the flavor from the sauce. The steamed fish was definitely the highlight. Super light and fragrant, the meat of the fish was so soft and tender. Really pairs well with rice. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice, simple, and clean. Overall, fantastic place to go to! :)

    For an Orlando dining experience I'd have to give this place a 5*. Overall service, environment,…read moreand food was very well executed. Is this the kind of place that a compete with the top tier of NYC/CA, yes but not at the same level. Cha Siu Pork - This was truly legendary. Tender, perfectly cooked. Duck - Flavor was alright, felt a bit muted. Skin wasn't that crispy. Spicy chicken - flavor was very good. Rice was decent. Nothing too memorable.

    Came here with a reservation on a busy Sat night and the place was packed. Servers were attentive…read moreand seemed to know the menu We ordered the a ton of stuff from the amazing fried calamari, wonton soup, steamed giant oyster, Peking Duck , fried rice and lobster with ginger scallion sauce as well as the sea bass. Highlights for sure was the calamari which was perfectly cooked and crispy, Peking duck was spot on and skin was perfect with juicy meat. Wonton was house made you can tell and it was awesome. I was disappointed with the steamed oyster as it was well cooked but the taste overall was just not for me. Lobster was also a let down. You could tell it was frozen or not too fresh. The meat was sticking to the shell which is a tell tale sign Overall a stellar meal , I would just avoid some of the dishes above but otherwise it was great
