Taste of Nations Restaurant

This place is an off-the-beaten-path gem! We ordered takeout and will not order Chinese from anywhere else. When we picked up our order, the owner told us to try everything before we added additional sauces or soy sauce. And he was so right! The food was incredibly flavorful and perfectly balanced. We ordered the chicken fried rice and chicken with garlic sauce. The fried rice was amazing, probably the best I've ever had! The chicken with garlic sauce was sweet and spicy and extremely fresh tasting. And plenty for leftovers! We will recommend Taste of Nations to everyone looking for authentic Chinese! The owner is so friendly and really cares about his food and customers. We will be back!

Owner chef is delightful to talk to and loves what he does. Don't let the outside kinda hard to find spot fool you. It's worth pulling in. Ambiance inside is good as is the flavorful food

We had to try this restaurant because the reviews were so good. It is owned and run by a husband and wife who are the ones who do the cooking. Pat was so friendly and informative! We had the eggrolls, general tso chicken, and mongolian beef. The food was very authentic and delicious! We will definitely go back if we are ever in the area again! I truly want to try the lo mein next time!!

The owner is wonderful!! His personality is amazing!! You feel like your at home! Didn’t want to leave!! Food is the best I’ve ever had!! My husband and I travel for a living and WOW!! Will definitely be a go to place anytime we are in the area!!
I had the Swai Fish (the flavor is insane), Jasmine hot tea, egg roll, fried rice (don’t use sauce it’s perfect without)
My husband had the Triple Crown, Cold Tea, egg roll, fried rice. The egg rolls are the bomb!!

This is one of those untapped restaurants that you MUST come visit! It is bu far the BEST Asian food I've ever had!

The owner is very friendly and attentive. They would customize any dish to fit your spice preference.

So my friend decided he wanted me to try his favorite Chinese place and we ended up here last night. The outside is an interesting amalgamation of stuff....the inside is clean and bright and comfortable. The owner is incredibly funny, and attentive and the food is incredible. You cannot go wrong with having dinner here.

Excellent food prepared fresh. Polite, friendly service. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place. It is a local shop and has the look and feel of one. Food is great and the staff, though few, are extremely nice. The picture included is my food.

We enjoyed a wonderful, tasty, authentic meal tonight. The owner/chef/matre'd was so friendly. He ensured our complete satisfaction.

My only disappointment was that they were not busier. Go check them out. You won't be disappointed.

Me and my wife went and both of us were pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent! We will never eat Chinese food from anywhere else. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

While The building may not be much to look at, the food is exceptional. We had the General Tso's chicken. The best part, however, was speaking with the owner on the dishes that he's made and the history behind many of the dishes we take for granted in the United States. His goal is to produce traditional recipes based on the history of the food he serves. The sad part is this is a gem that is ignored based on location. Hopefully this review will help people to find it again.

I don't have enough stars to give this place. We have moved into the area couple months ago and we always said it looks a little but shady from outside looking. However there are many people recommended this place so I have to try it. The FOOD is excellent. We have traveled to many states many different asian countries and this place absolutely one of the best restaurants we ever tried. We have a veggie dish and Mongolian beef. They are so fresh and so good. The RESTAURANT is so clean I mean like spotless clean and it's surprising us so much since it looks kinda old outside. The SERVICE IS AMAZING. They treat us like family and talk about some stories. I would absolutely recommended this place for everyone ever come by to town. It's an awesome place. Must try.

This place is absolutely amazing!!! Was just here visiting family and just happen to find this place and oh my goodness I’m so glad we did!!!! If i could give it a 10 star i sure would give it a 10

We eat here when we’re visiting family at Surfside Beach! The food is great & the service is excellent! Things were slow & the owner visited with us a lot! He is very funny and friendly! We’ll definitely be back!

Excellent food and service, If you are looking for authentic Chinese food this is were its at. Great quality for a decent price. Nothing compared to a "mall Chinese buffet". Big thanks to our server for giving us some knowledge about the food. He has worked over 25 years for the restaurant his customer service was outstanding. Thanks so much! Rice and Spring Rolls were phenomenal.

Wow what a surprise! I looked passed this place a few times but the hubby wanted Chinese today so I got on Yelp and was convinced to try it. The outside is a little rough but the inside is clean and full of decor. The owner took care of us at lunch and he was so very nice and shared stories. He has recommendations and can surprise you! The food was excellent. We had Chicken in Garlic Sauce and General Tso's with Hot and Sour Soup. The flavor was great and portions were just right. This is not the typical Chinese place. The food was fresh and authentic.

The best Chinese restaurant in Brazoria County by far! Being from San Francisco, I think I'm a good judge of Chinese cuisine. They actually have a very nice Asian gentleman who cooks there, not like Shanghai were the food is cooked by Hispanics. I highly recommend Taste of Nations! It may not be much to look at in the outside, but the food is very good!
