    Excellent authentic Cantonese cuisines using seasonal local ingredients. We had roasted duck, chicken 2-way, crayfish, lobster over noodles, braised winter melon, stir-fried greens. All excellent. Seafoods in Edinburgh is best!

    Taste Good isn't the closest Chinese take away to my house anymore but it's still my go to option. The menu is huge and has an excellent range of veggie options. My usual choice is the chicken and cashew nuts which has way more cashew nuts and big bits of chicken than the same dish that I ordered from another take away.

    It's much faster if you can go and collect from the store and there is a £1.80 delivery charge for orders under £19 it's still excellent value for money. The starters are £3 to £5, mains are £5 to £7 and fried rice £2.60.

    They also gave me an awesome calendar in December with amazing chinese zodiac artwork for each month. It's sat on my desk and I've had a few people ask if it's from my trip to Thailand last year and be super surprised that it was free from a take away. If you're ordering soon ask if they have any left.

    By far the best place to get Cantonese BBQ in Edinburgh. Roast belly pork, honey char siu, roast duck, soy chicken, etc., as well as standard dishes. Also one of the few places to get roast suckling pig.

    Nice for restaurant or for take away.

    This is my local Chinese take away, and I've never been disappointed. It has a great selection of starters that are always cooked perfectly crispy and never soggy like some takeaway options can be!
    Even the packaging of their take away boxes and bags are nice, and it's these little extra touches along with the tasty food that keep it at the top of my take away list!

    As part of continuing my search for a local Chinese, my roommate recommended this one. As I am a veggie, maybe I missed the real flavour of the BBQ and meat options, which might make this place special, but overall, there was just something missing. Our local Chinese in Leith was so amazing, I knew it would be hard to beat, but this definitely didn't come close.

    I had a Spicy Bean curd, which was nice, but wasn't enough on its own with rice to really make a good dinner. We got some noodles, which tasted fine, but nothing special and definitely didn't make the top of my list due to them being sort of flavourless. You have to spend £26 to get free prawn crackers, which is pretty steep in my mind. The spring rolls were really good, good size and very tasty, but were almost £4 for just 2. I think we could have made better at home for that price.

    Overall, it is a bit overpriced for what you are getting, which isn't much. I would rather go further to find a better local then eat here again. Although it is absolutely fine if you just want some basic Chinese. Maybe I didn't try the right things, but it didn't wow me.
