" Solid choice for a quick lunch. The price is reasonable for what you’re getting. I would recommend the curry chicken rice plate—it hits all the right notes. The environment is nothing fancy, but it's clean and fresh. Great for a workday meal if you're nearby. It's not the absolute best Hunan food around, but it certainly does the job. I’ll be back when I’m in the neighborhood. " (*Curated Review*)

" Hunan Taste is where you'll find that authentic kick! I've tried many Hunan restaurants, but this one stands apart. Their spicy tofu was extraordinary, and how they decorate the dish with flavors is delightful. The ambiance does not scream 'fine dining,' but it feels inclusive for friends and family gatherings. It’s just lovely place with good company and delightful food – I cannot recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really disappointing experience at Hunan Taste. Though I had heard great things, what I received was far from what I expected. The fried rice was bland and lacked flavor; I couldn't even finish it. There was entirely too much batter on the sweet and sour chicken. I won't be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Though the food was not to my taste, I can see why others enjoy it! I found the dishes overly spicy and couldn’t finish my meal. The service though was undeniably friendly and the staff took my dietary concerns seriously. If you love spice, give them a whirl, but I’ll likely choose something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to like Hunan Taste as I usually love spicy food, but my recent experience left me disappointed. The garlic chicken we ordered came cold and lacked the punch I was expecting. Moreover, the service felt rushed. While I can understand the busy times, it doesn't excuse the quality that day. Maybe it was just an off night for them, but I don't think I will return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t say enough about the Hunan bean curd! It truly takes me back to my travels in Hunan. It’s bursting with flavor and worth every penny. The ambiance, although simple, feels cozy and inviting, especially during lunch hours. The family running the place creates a welcoming atmosphere. If you're a fan of spicy food, you should definitely check them out. I promise you'd leave satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a truly authentic Hunan dining experience, Hunan Taste is the place to be! The flavors are vibrant, and every dish bursts with spices. The staff is welcoming, making you feel right at home. I would highly recommend the dry sautéed string beans and the Hunan chicken. Advice: don’t underestimate the spice level! Can't wait to go back!
