We were just in the area looking for somewhere to eat and stumbled across Taste of China. So glad we came here. Tasty food at a reasonable price and we did not have to wait too long even though the red was busy. Several Chinese families eating here which is always a good sign. I’ll be back! Thank you

last time I ate here the food wasnt as good as it used to be, ill probably come again since its close but being cash only and constantly raising prices isnt tempting

My family have been using this restaurant for years. However, myself, I’ve only ever thought it pretty standard… But the last two trips, including tonight have been appalling to the maximum… Some might say, I should not have returned After the last appalling trip, but they had a big birthday party, extremely loud, extremely vulgar language and quite upsetting As I had my young children with me, quite disgusting, but no stop of this really bad behaviour and language was asked to be eased up from this crowd from any of the staff, albeit children are sitting on the next table!!… so put i it to one side for that reason That maybe this was out of their hands to a point! However, tonight, all of the food was cold, literally stone cold!! we had spare ribs that were literally so burnt onto the bones. It was practically snapping off!.. so I refused for my young children to eat too much of it, as it was literally like shards of glass. Horrendous . We then had half a peking aromatic duck… Stone cold again, the pancakes were all stuck together simply ripping apart in Strips... The duck was so burnt and dry. We found countless snapped and shredded bones inside of our meat after having been “prepared”!! at the table… So my kids, who, like the cucumber with the duck, which is supposed to be supplied to your taste, I guess?!.. came as such a small small portion. It was literally embarrassing!.. possibly 6 tiniest little strands of cucumber and the same with spring onion😳 about 10pence worth in total!.. so I asked the waitress if my children could have a few more strands of cucumber… So reluctantly, tutting and huffing, she brought us some more, so it carries on .. all of the soft drinks were completely flat , in old glasses, no tablecloth, paper menus thrown at us, And staff could not wait for everyone to leave, To the point where they were clearing the tables when we were still eating off of our plates!!, they were clearing our food and plates from underneath us…. It was absolutely terrible… but they Allowed us in to sit at a table at 7:45 this evening, so not late!!! I didn’t want to make a fuss, just simply decided that never again Would I return to this place in Cosham .. it’s so dirty, the carpet is filthy, the whole place needs renovating to the maximum for the last 10 years I should think!! So not wanting to upset my family, I simply decided would not ever return again! and I will just pay the bill and leave… UNTIL…. Upon receiving my bill, we had also been charged £3 EXTRA for the measly, little bit of cucumber that I requested for my son with the duck As the plate they had brought to accompany the duck was empty to begin with!!! SIMPLY AVOID THIS CHINESE RESTAURANT !!! “THE TASTE OF CHINA” COSHAM PORTSMOUTH

Tried for the first time today as a birthday treat. Wow wow wow. All of us could not stop gushing about the whole experience. The flavours were phenomenal the portions generous but not over the top. The value unbelievably good. The atmosphere perfect welcoming, comfortable and enjoyable. The service was spot on no hovering or rushing or coming over but subtle paying attention in the background unassuming and prompt when your ready to order straight over without being called. This is how dinning out should be, extremely well organised throughout. I do not leave reviews like this. But honestly can say we were all overwhelmed with how exceptionally excellent the whole experience was. One million stars ⭐️!!!!! Thought this kind of experience was extinct. Impressive beyond belief. Cannot over hype enough. Thank you soooo much cannot tell you how much I needed this experience.

food is amazing, best Chinese food I have ever had, potions are also really good value for money. the only thing that let's the restaurant down is that the staff are not very friendly, don't smile. the lady there makes an effort but the men don't even speck which is such a shame, as the food is outstanding

I frequented this place a few times and found the food good, other times mediocre. Today I thought I'd try something new. I ordered two shrimp eggrolls and shrimp with rice soup. I can honestly say I will not be back. The egg rolls were nothing but cabbage with what appeared to be diced shrimp (that you couldn't even taste). The soup was terrible as the result of over cooked rice that was almost like porridge. I like my pasta al dente, even though rice is a grain, it shouldn't be mushy, it should be at least a bit firm. Also, you could actually count the amount of shrimp that was in it as they were all floating on top, and at that, they weren't whole pieces (much like the eggrolls). The people are friendly and the place is always very clean, but I went for the food...

Loved the fried chicken dumplings!Didn't really like the sauce my cold noodle came in but that's in me. Really resourceful location since I was hungry and needed some food after being at the Elmhurst hospital.

Disgusting delivery driver. Stood outside my house and rang the bell over and over again because he felt his tip wasn’t big enough.

Not the greatest, is convenient but like anything else, nearby it doesn't mean it's good. Portions are small, very expensive. Egg rolls are small. And maybe it's just me but the prices are super high. Not worth it. I would not recommend this place.

Delicious wings! I absolutely love it no need to go to the hospital in the front perfectly fine so far I love it! Definitely go here!
