Criticism, whether«good» or «bad» per se, is heeded; and I would have to say quite immediately. The customer service improved — seemingly over night. The gentleman who took my order honored their stated/established promotional offers, notified me of the accepted method of payments(Visa, in particular [as opposed to American Express]), etc. He even went as far as to inform me if they had Pepsi or Coke-based soda products without qualm when honoring the free two-liter soda with a order total exceeding $ 33(I believe). Honestly, I felt like I was ordering at Chick-Fil-A.(I’ll continue ordering from Tai Yu.)

First time to this restaurant since I’m trying to try new places as I’m a new resident to the area. I used the Unilocal app to find it and as I pulled up to grab a menu I was certainly feeling unenthusiastic about ordering due to overall appearance of the exterior but I let it go. I walked in to find that same feeling as I entered through the front door. I find myself measuring the quality of Chinese food through standard operation of getting what I get at every place to start, then if I’m satisfied with that meal I will continue to go there and try other dishes. I got the usual, pan fried pork dumplings and beef lo mein. But as I’m scanning the menu I notice an item never seen on a typical Chinese joint’s listings… a pizza role. My mind was too fixated on what they would use as sauce to look at anything but that on the menu so I pull the trigger and order it. I get home with my meal and start with what I believe to be the tastiest of all Chinese food appetizers, the dumplings. As you’d expect, pan fried on one side and soft on the other. One bite and the grease oozes out of it in all of its Chinese glory. Success. Next was the item I was most excited for, the pizza roll. As with most Chinese food, presentation is not important. It’s simply and egg roll with pizza fillings. Two bites down and it’s gone and I’m left wishing I ordered two. Now to the LI mein. As I opened the container I noted how bland it looked and as I taste it I think about how dead on I was with the description. It really was bland, bland tasting, looking, it just didn’t taste as good as I’d hoped. I’m going to brave it on this one and go back for another dish in the coming week. I left it at 3 stars for appearance of the restaurant but I must comment on the customer service given to me inside. The food was good to start but I ended up not finishing my meal, not due to being full. but because it wasn’t tasty anymore to me.

Went here a few times. Good food with large portions The food is always ready when I arrive at the restaurant. There are a few tables to sit and eat. I perfer to take it home. The staff is always polite and have not made an error on the orders. Call ahead and it will be ready at the time they tell you. The cost is about the same as most Chinese restaurants in the area. They should place more tables in the restaurant and clean it up allittle more people would sit and eat at the restaurant. Plenty of parking.

After sampling every Chinese place in Mastic Shirley there is no better place than Tai Yu! Everything we’ve had has been spectacular. The pork in garlic sauce is to die for! And the price for our family of four was $ 5-$ 7 less than the typical price we were paying at the other places.

So this local Mastic Beach area Chinese take-out place does not rank highly on my list of good places to get food. The menu selections here mirror any other local Chinese take-out. So nothing gained nothing lost in that regard. However, the quality of their preparations leaves a lot to be desired. Staple items for me are things like Sesame Chicken, General Tso’s Chicken, and Orange Chicken. Most places you go these 3 items have very distinct flavors, but from Tai Yu they all seem to taste very similar. And by very similar I mean they all taste like a variation on Sweet and Sour sauce, another staple item, and one I’m not that fond of. Not only does everything taste like a variation of Sweet and Sour sauce, it isn’t even a very good Sweet and Sour sauce. My best guess is they use Sweet and Sour sauce as a base master sauce and modify it for the various dishes I mentioned. Well that does not equate to a good food experience in my opinion. Also going against this take-out joint is their service, or lack there of. The people who work here are your typical Chinese food proprietors in that they don’t speak a lot of English. Not only do they not speak much English, but they have no personality. It feels like all they are trying to do is rush you in and rush you out as quickly as possible. So there is nothing in regards to service worth writing home about. My only reason for a 2-star rating is simple… I didn’t get sick from their food, and other Chinese take-out places have gotten me sick, so that would be my baseline for a 1-star rating. This beats that, but only slightly. Visit at your own risk. And hey, maybe your experience will be better…

Excellent hot and sour soup and a really friendly staff. The rest of the food is good, not amazing, but reliably good, and they have no issues altering ingredients for you. I tend to choose it over others in the area.
