Chengdu Taste is a restaurant that serves delicious and fresh Szechuan Chinese food. The menu offers a variety of dishes, including deep fried chicken with red chili pepper, sautéed string beans, spicy arden lettuce, and griddle cooked shrimp with mixed vegetables. The food is properly spicy and numbing, with distinct flavors in each dish. Customers praise the generous portions and incredible flavors, with some receiving complimentary fish to complete their meals. The Sichuan dishes, especially mapo tofu and toothpick lamb, are known for their real numbing heat. The interior is simple and clean, making it a good spot for groups willing to share plates. The staff is friendly and helpful, often warning about spice levels if asked, and double-checks spice preferences. Many find the cold green pepper oil chicken and veggies on skewers to be a highlight. The restaurant is clean and welcoming, with a cozy vibe that adds to the experience. Parking in the plaza can be chaotic during dinner hours. The menu has something for everyone, with large shareable portions and reasonable prices, making it a popular choice for gatherings. Many customers enjoy the excellent presentation and the service, including packing up to-go orders, which makes it worth visiting.
