TastEast in Glasgow City

The restaurant was recommended by friends. The food was very tasty, I ordered shrimp for over £10, I thought there would be a little more of them, but they made up for it in taste because they were very tasty. The soups are huge, you can eat a lot of them, the rice is very well prepared. The only thing I didn't like was the slightly dirty bathrooms, but it's tasty inside, you can eat it.

It is the 1st time I travel to Glasgow. I never know that there are a lot of Chinese restaurants in the city centre. I searched for this restaurant from Google Maps randomly. It is a small restaurant with limited tables. You can find a lot of spicy dishes on the menu. The taste is very authentic and resembles the original taste. Besides, the price is reasonable and the food portion is quite large. Highly recommended!

Not my taste Food not very good

Always happy with the food here.

This is a super chilled real Chinese food place - there are authentic dishes from all around China. We tried the Malaxiangguo hot pot which was UNREAL. The balance of flavour was delightful. Also had Dan Dan noodles and a sliced pork Sichuan dish and there was enough for us to take home and have lunch then next day! Try this place out if you're looking for real Chinese food and good prices.

Got there late so didn't have a lot of time but managed to try a couple of dishes. They have 2 menus , typical menu for Brits with all the favourites but also a menu with authentic mainland China dishes. I ordered off the latter and the Dim Sum prawn dumplings and chicken gizzard dishes were great. A dipping sauce would have been nice . The Chinese menu isn't marked for starters and mains so you need to ask which is which. Portions were very generous too. Prices very reasonable and a bit lower than is typical for the area and Chinese restaurants in Glasgow.Staff had limited English but enough to get by which is fine and added to the experience. They dont sell wine but you can get Chinese beer. Restaurant only had a few people in as I arrived late but was clean and has nice decor. Several Chinese eating there too which is always a good sign. Definitely going back as Chinese menu is very interesting. Along with typical Brit menu there are many dishes that look worth trying. They only accept cash or bank transfer.

Me and my friends’ favorite Chinese restaurant in Glasgow. Never regretted any dish here, the food is fantastic with affordable price. Will go again and again

The best taste in Glasgow for Chinese food!!!

Hidden gem 💎 my new fave place to eat been here 6 times now wow its amazing 👏 9.5 out if 10

The dishes here taste extremely authentic, if you want to experience authentic Chinese taste, this is the first place👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Pay to beg for food. Finally get the food after around an hour. Then we proceed with the food with no utensils. Had to eat in the dark because of electricity malnutrition. Paying a 2023 price to eat in the 2023 BCE. Do visit if you don’t mind with their arrogance.

Absolutely disgusting. Have not seen a worse waiter. Waited and observed. Table after us had had their meal and finished their meal. Asked one of the waiter and and he just nonchalantly said that the kitchen was preparing. After forty minutes we asked another waiter to pressure the kitchen only to realise that the order was not keyed in. We were compensated by have our order put to the front, which was not very generous of the restaurant. We were not even given utensils (not even chopsticks) when we receive our food, and we had to ask for it. The cherry on top was that we had to dine in the dark. One of the most memorable experiences in every bad way. Pay to experience peasant simulator, had to beg for our food Ps. The photo was taken in between the electricity malfunction

Their sanitary conditions are very POOR, even cockroaches can be seen, and the service attitude is extremely POOR! ! Be sure to give a BAD review! ! I once tried to work part-time, but they treated the employees very badly, they didn’t seem to treat me as a human being, they kept ordering me to do this and that, they didn’t respect me at all! ! !

The restaurant was pretty cold, so most people were wearing jackets throughout their meal. The food was very tasty, and there were some really unusual dishes, like pigs feet & pigs intestines, if you're feeling adventurous. Worth noting that they only accept cash payment.

It's the Chinese restaurant I came for the most time. Because the landlady here is really friendly and hospitable, which makes me feel free to stay here for a lunch.

Fresh produce lying out which should be in a fridge, chicken tasted reheated which later led to food poisoning. I’d pass.

Visited yesterday we were in and out of this place within 5 minutes,on entering we were the only two customers which was a bad sign. We were presented with the menus and I was looking at hot and sour soup for a starter my wife noticed the price was £7 different from what was on the outside menu £5 on looking at my menu they had a sticker over the price stating £9? Asking the waitress what the right price was she hesitated and pointed out the correct price for the soup was £9 needless to say at this point we left.

Near authentic Chinese food, with some western options

Had meal yesterday. Only one table in who got very good service. Our main courses arrived before the starter which was different to the one we ordered. They changed it and we had it after the main courses. Had to remind them we ordered drinks. Asked for bill to be told cash only. Thankfully not a problem for us but others beware. The ribs were very small with very little taste. The prawn main was excellent but the pork in chilli which the waiter recommended was sent back as we couldn't eat it.

Very poor service, after giving waiter our order our mains arrived before our starter which was wrong and sent back. Our King prawn main was nice however the pork which was recommended by waiter was bland and very chewy and was also sent back, by this time our starter arrived again very bland and was basically thrown on the plate. Still no drink order had to remind them again. However another table of foreign nationality were getting what looked like a great service drinks arrived eventually by this time meal was ruined so went to pay wanted to charge full price and cash only. NEVER AGAIN AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

Can be hard to find authentic northern Chinese style food in Glasgow so TastEast is a must for those looking to aboid the usual cantonese style dishes. The noodles were excellent and the guobaorou is pretty nice as well. All in all the food is very similar to that in the North of China with less of the sweet, anglicised junk you get at most of the chinese restaurants here.

Most authentic Chinese restaurant outside China. Having lived there for 5 years I really missed the food but Tasteast is the best I have had since returning to Scotland over 20 years ago. Would highly recommend the Cumin Lamb but everything we have had has been outstanding. Staff are also lovely and helpful if you’re unsure what to order.

Just a huge thank you for today's food. My wife (from Lanzhou) and I have been revisiting Sichuan House on Sauchiehall street for years as we found this to be the only place to get good authentic Chinese food in Glasgow. However, after a quality plunge at Sichuan House we were on the look out for a new place and we're so happy to have found our new go to restaurant. The staff are all really nice, the restaurants decor is decent and the prices are reasonable. We'll be back every couple of weeks! Edited * well that went down hill quite quickly. We went back in last week and all the food was very bland and average. The worst thing of all is the front house lady in the suit making something with her bare hands on the last table next to the toilet. She was touching her phone to have a face time chat with family, straight back to rolling some dough with her unwashed hands, dropped some items on the floor which she picked up and again continued to nead dough. She was making something in a stacked metal steamer and was using the most disgusting brown, torn, hole ridden rag I've ever seen to place in between each layer. I could not take my eyes off it the whole time I was eating. No way we will go back now.

Good Chinese food! Really love it and the price is affordable.

AVOID!!! Worst chineese food I've ever had, order bbq rins ( got 5 of the smallest ribs I've ever seen) breast of chicken chow mein was so dry and tastless im not eating it and also a special curry ... well.. the sauce is like water actually so watery it drips off the prawn cracker.. £22.50 for food to go I'm the bin ALSO THEY HAVE MEAN LYINGALL OVER THE PLACE ON TABLES THAT HAD BEEN DELIVERD WHICH SHOULD BE PUT IN THE FRIDGE 🤢🤢🤢

Really nice food. I asked Large potion of Singapore fried rice with chicken & chilli. I have got it what I expected. I’m travel all around the Europe But only the one place I have to more on. Thank you Team.

Food lying defrosting on table no wonder these a virus and food poisoning

cant tell if its pronouncesd tast east or taste ast

Quality authentic Chinese cooking. Restaurant / take away sell westernised Chinese food, but also sells traditional Chinese dishes.

真的巨难吃。好评全是刷的吧？ 点了100多镑的东西两个小时不送到，东西也凉的凉驼的坨。格拉7年真的第一次被气到！ 太过分了

My friend and I had lunch there. The food was so fresh and portions were huge. I had beef and tomato with fried rice and it’s the best I’ve had in 40 years.

Luvly meal good service. Would gi back

Easily the best Chinese food I've had in Scotland.

Encontré este lugar después de rechazar varios otros restaurantes vecinos. Realmente me alegro de haberlo hecho ya que la comida es de primera clase. Comencé con costillas saladas: jugosas y servidas con cebollas crujientes. El plato principal era pollo en salsa satay, un montón de sabroso pollo húmedo en una salsa picante satay. Además, había un montón de arroz frito perfecto. El servicio fue rápido y la factura era muy razonable. Definitivamente volveremos.

Found this place by chance and decided to have lunch one sunday . Food is excellent , we had the Lamb with peppers and the Chilli squid both fabulous . Would highly recommend for authentic chinese food . As mentioned in previous reviews it is frequented by people mainly from Asia

Very good food and very friendly staff

Lovely Chinese food, great service.

个人觉得是格拉最好吃且最良心的中餐厅了，价格不贵份量也足，服务态度也很好。比起其他的几家，这里的菜口感更好，味道更清淡。推荐点他们的汤，很好喝，份量也足够4 5个人喝。这家店18年开了后我都没怎么去过隔壁东北人家了，真心各方面都比隔壁强。呆了一年多就这家中餐去的最多了。

My wife and I were in the big city for a night and wanted a good Chinese cuisine. We found it, the staff were welcoming and pleasent, very helpful. Didn't mind our 10month old making her presence known. Full of Chinese customers chatting that gave it some more character. The meal from start to finish was fabulous, a delight. If I fancy Chinese cuisine again it would be worth the 3 hour journey from the Highlands. Awesome meal and service.

Abundant exquisite food. Lo ely service.

I went here the other day for a lunch takeaway. I ordered chicken noodles ( price £6.50) plenty noodles, beensprouts ,onions but only a pitfall amount of chicken to fit on the end of my middle finger . Wont be back totally ripped off

Amazing food. Very simple place and food •fantastic. Will go again.

格拉斯哥最好吃的中餐。回锅肉太正宗，猪肉不腥，辣度刚好。榄菜四季豆等等都非常好吃。只收现金，也可以支付宝微信。每次来格拉必吃，服务员都很友好。

Proper genuin chinese food the best ive had not just the usial curry stuff

Nice and cosy restaurant with great tasting Chinese food. Best beef brisket noodles and stewed pig trotters I had in Glasgow! The place for great tasting authentic Chinese cooking.

Great food, price, service - my new go to in the area

Best ever chinese food I have eaten, and I have eaten chinese food the length of the UK.

Excellent food - this is a west-end contender to KaKaLok. The food here is more Chinese than Cantonese but the flavours are good and the food is tasty and fresh. If you like KaKaLok, give this place a try.

Just wondered in off the street without a booking,and so glad I did,food was unbelievable

Best szechuan beef I’ve had in along time. Portions are great value too! Highly recommend for when you’re feeling lazy and need a takeaway 👌

What do you want for lunch ? Chinese Dad. Chineeeese ! And so she found this restaurant as we walked past and what a gem. Felt very authentic as every other customer was Asian. Great service. Lovely food - I ordered Beijing duck from the menu in Mandarin. V tasty in a dark sauce and eaten with pancakes. Wife's prawn chau mein was excellent as was sons won ton soup. Portions were huge and great value. Had leftovers for the next day. Only issue was had to pay in cash. Thanked the chef team (waiter translated) because it was sooooo good. Great find by my daughter.

Went for dinner with friends. The food was excellent, staff was friendly and service was quick. Definitely worth a visit for all Asian food lovers!

Great food. Especially liked the lettuce cooked with fish in black bean sauce and the lamb in cumin.

The dumplings were amazing! Very friendly staff. Will definitely go back soon.
