Little Taipei

The workers are really nice and will explain any dish to you (since I don‘t know what‘s in a lot of them). While I have heard people say that some of the food is bland, a lot of traditional food that comes from Asia is actually a lot blander than what you think, and the food here is closer to a traditional taste. Also, the place smells so good from all the food when you walk in and has always been clean when I‘ve been in there! Definitely a monthly must!

The new place in Chamberlain St is cleaner than the old one, and food is delicious.

I LOVE LITTLE TAIPEI. I love getting sesame chicken and sweet and sour chicken. I also love crab rangoons. I eat them on a weekly basis. YUMMY.

Their Thai curry dishes and Kim Chi rice and fish dishes are very, very good for the price!! We have been going here for many years - ever since they opened in Ames in the 1980s - and we love the fast and quite cheap dishes with plenty of rice here!!!

I have been eating here for the past 3 years. The food is amazing and the people are nice

I have little to say other than that Little Taipei serves consistently tasty and affordable meals. My family (including three young kids) loves to eat here.

Some food is kinda special. The price is a little bit higher than before.

of all the chinese places in Ames this is of the top 2. (i know ames isn‘t the mecca of chinnese food, so this still may not be saying much.) Great service, great people, good food and for a good price.

This is the worst chinese restaurant in Ames, I am amazed at the number of people who eat there. I tried it several times, none of the food had any real flavor. All the dishes I tried tasted the same, pork, beef and chicken dishes should not all taste the same. I am surprised they are still in business, maybe some people like cheap food with no flavor.

The food is great, and the price list is impressive, including tax and stuff. self service restaurant, so nothing to say about service. the only thing they can build on is the environment. a bit more light would do good. but if u want to try out great food, try this place!

Little Taipei is the only Chinese food restaurant in Ames that isn‘t a complete ripoff and that is delicious. You get a generous portion of a main dish and rice for $5. They have very fast service and good food.

This place has moved to a new location which is much cleaner and nicer, more seats, too. The food, however, is just average. Sometimes I found the rice is not fresh, sometimes the meat feels weird. Once in a while I have good luck that I feel satisfied about my meal, but most of the time it is not that good. The only thing good about this place is some of their dishes are not that salty and greasy like other Chinese restaurant.

Too bad I am from Taipei, too. But the quality and the taste of the dishes in this restaurant can‘t compare to real dishes in Taipei.

Very good! They use GOOD chicken without fat on it, which is very hard to find at chinese restaurants! DELICIOUS!!!! Try their egg rolls, the sweet and sour sauce is delicious

I don‘t mind it. I heavily prefer May House, but the crab rangoon is sadly addictive, which is the sole reason I eat at Little Taipei so often. As a restaurant it‘s not amazing, but it‘s good. It‘s worth a try.

I love the Ta Chien Chicken here! Great food and cheap.

if you like shitty food this is the place. The chicken tastes fatty and the food has no taste. eggrolls also suck

Try the Tai Chen Chicken when you go here. GOOD!

Is this Mexican or Chinese food? I swear the spice in my fried rice was the same stuff I put on my tacos. The food wasn‘t bad, but it was not very authentic at all. It didn‘t help that the staff was blaring music in Spanish.

Christ just go to the buffet by the movie theater you‘ll get the same low qaulity food just a lot more of it at a cheaper price

The food is inexpensive and usually quite good. The staff is always very friendly. Nice atmosphere.

hate everything about it... please learn how to make good food sometime this year

awesome food, great price and very friendly people

Not fancy, just good inexpensive food. The orange chicken is noteworthy, it is good and spicy and not breaded like most places.

I ordered shrimp curry and crab rangoon. Both were pretty bland.

They just started their delivery service last friday(8/24/07)

Love the food as much as I love the prices!

This is an ISU institution. Not particularly noteworthy beyond it‘s status as a cultural icon of Campustown, it does cater to the poor college student with generous portions and very reasonable prices.

Great chinese food without a bad aftertaste. Recently moved to much nicer location. Very affordable!

Taipei will reopen june 7 at 11 am. thats about 11 hrs from this post. hope to see ya there.

Decent food at cheap prices. Not great, just decent. Service isn‘t the best. They wouldn‘t give my friend an extra plate when he asked, and even offered to pay for it. He didn‘t want to spill on the table. This is a good collage restaurant, cheap and no frills.

I love Little Taipei, but I am frustrated waiting for them to reopen. When will they open???

I called today and they said that they‘ll be re-opening in their new location on the 15th!!

i love this place! i was so disappointed when they moved. the food and service are both awesome, but the atmosphere was one of the reasons i loved it so much!

Awesome place, the best Chinese in town. Please re-open!

Awesome Chinese food, even though they haven‘t been open since before Christmas.

Dirty place and poor a very poor quality of food is used.

This is one of my favorite places to eat! The ginger chicken is amazing. It is a lot of food for just a little money.

I Love this place it‘s incredibly affordable and the food is amazing. I‘m having Taipei withdraws due to their move to Cafe Shi‘s old place. I strongly recommend trying this place out.

Cheap and the best orange chicken around!!

This place is great if you‘re looking for a for a lot of food for cheap. The restaurant is kinda small but clean and nice. I definitely recommend them because they‘re speedy and friendly!!

Their crab rangoons and sesame chickens are killers. Mmm...

The food is amazing, especially for the price. I‘ve been eating here for years and never regret it, and it‘s definitely better then any of the other places in town that I‘ve tried.

This has to be the best chinese place around.. its cheap.. its tasty.. and so fast that it seems that ur at a chinese fast food!! if you like something sweet try their gen tso chicken or hot braised chicken.. mongolian beef is also really gooooooooooooooooooood! i know where i am going after work today to get dinner!

They have the best sesame chicken in all of Ames

this place has VERY good food. Also one of the cheapest places to eat chinese anywhere!
