Great place to eat. They offer Thai, Japanese & Chinese food. I had the spicey mango Thai dish and it was great! They offer a good variety of the different country dishes. Looking forward to trying the other dishes. Will definitely be going back.
Our favorite Chinese in the Elmira Horseheads area has always been Hamlet Delights in Horseheads. I called them and discovered they are under new management and they described their food as American.
My coworkers had said Taste of Asia is the best in town so we gave them a try. The chicken on fried rice was almost identical to Hamlet Delights. Very flavorful, lots of broccoli, very good overall and a generous portion. The egg drop soup was pretty horrible. It was brown in color, lots of egg whites and super salty. We are used to a deep yellow color, lots of egg whites swirled in, some scallions and a thick soup.
We are going to make a batch of our own now after seeing a YouTube video
So, Taste of Asia? Staff friendly and courteous, quick turnaround for takeout but, stay away from the Egg Drop Soup.

Well, I had high hopes for the honey shrimp, but it was disappointing. The shrimp was nicely large, but many still had shells on them, which wasn't obvious until chewed. I don't enjoy picking shrimp shells out of my mouth. There were also orange slices- why? The flavor wasn't expected or desired. I had the dragon roll. It was ok, but lacked flavor- was spiced at all? Again, disappointed. The stuffed jalapeno was interesting and good. We'll try one more time. Hope it's better.

I’ll start with the positive: the staff is genuinely kind and attentive. The woman who took my order unsure if she was the owner or an employee was exceptionally warm and welcoming, which I really appreciated.
Unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to that same standard. The fried rice and chicken lo mein were both below par. The fried rice lacked flavor and substance, no real chicken to speak of, just a light touch of egg and green peas that looked and tasted canned. I’ve honestly had better fried rice from the freezer section at Sam’s Club, which is disappointing to say.
The lo mein was equally forgettable and not something I could finish. When two of the simplest, most foundational dishes on the menu miss the mark, it doesn’t inspire confidence in the rest.
They also serve sushi, and in my experience, restaurants that try to cover multiple cuisines can sometimes spread themselves too thin.
That said, it’s possible I caught them on an off day. Still, based on this visit, the food didn’t match the quality of the service.

Had a great first experience, staff is so friendly, atmosphere was adorable. I got my usual favorite sushi dish and the flavor and presentation went above and beyond my expectations. I will definitely be going back and trying more and exploring new dishes.

Menu was weird. Waiter seemed irritated i just wanted a Togo order. He was young so maybe he was just shy. All I wanted was pork fried rice and they didn't have any. Food i ordered was good
