" My family and I were searching for a new spot for dinner, and Taste of Original caught our eye. We were not disappointed! The food took a bit longer than expected but was well worth the wait. We ordered chicken with black bean sauce, which was rich and bold. The servers were pleasant but seemed overwhelmed with the crowd. It’s refreshing to see a place where they prepare food with such care—definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing dinner last night! The salt and pepper ribs were crispy and juicy, a staff favorite. I was seated promptly, but the waiting staff was a bit overwhelmed. My only criticism is the brightness—it's slightly too much at times. I left with leftovers, so the portions definitely are generous. I'll be back after all the food exploration! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taste of Original really sells authentic Cantonese cuisine. I went with my family and ordered an array of dishes to share. The rice noodle rolls were hands down the best I've had in California, soft and silky to perfection! The portions were generous, and we all left satisfied. One downside was that the service was a bit slow during peak hours, but it’s worth the wait for the delicious food. Bookmarked for future visits! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable dinner at this restaurant. The food was delicious, and the ambiance was warm. I tried the squid garlic noodles, which had a lovely flavor but could have used a bit more seasoning. The service was prompt without being intrusive. I appreciate the effort they put into keeping everything clean and organized. I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited devotedly based on a friend's recommendation, and it truly lives up to the praise! The quality of the food was remarkable; it's hard to find authentic flavors like this outside of a Chinese city. I ordered the egg-wrapped rice noodles, which tasted heavenly! The restaurant was a bit busy, and the wait staff seemed a little frazzled, but I loved dining there. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant was a pleasant surprise. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance felt welcoming and cozy. I ordered the shrimp and chive rice rolls and absolutely loved them! The freshness was off the charts. However, my partner found the chicken dish a bit too salty. The service was attentive, and the staff was genuinely friendly. I look forward to revisiting Taste of Original, as there are many more dishes to try! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a family gathering at Taste of Original and was thrilled with the service we received. We ordered a variety of dishes, and everything was served hot and flavorful. I particularly enjoyed the pumpkin shrimp; it was a delight! The staff was accommodating and made our gathering enjoyable. The only downside was that it got a bit crowded, but that’s a testament to how popular the place is. " (*Curated Review*)
