"I will unfortunately not be able to order from Tso anymore, because twice now I've gotten very sick after eating the beef noodles. It was my favorite dish. It tasted good, the customer service was great, but for the second time I was very ill hours after eating and so I can no longer enjoy Tso."

"I tried to place an order for only the general tso's chicken. I get to the checkout part of my order and the online ordering system won't allow me to place the order because the subtotal has to be more than $20-$21 dollars. I added extra items to finally get the order to go through. The food was delivered and I wasn't impressed. The food had little to no fla..." Read more

"Before reading any further, if you're looking for quick and tasty Chinese, go to Panda Express..This takeout and delivery only place is a bit odd overall. In order to even place a takout order, I had to make an account, furler prolonging the already difficult online only order process. This place does not take phone call orders. In addition to the di..." Read more

"There's a reason why this place is somewhat highly rated. Clearly people enjoy the food.  That is why I chose this place for the first time.  Even the lady I spoke to waiting for her takeout said so.  I should have asked what she ordered.  What I ordered was so disappointingly non-delicious.  I had the Honey Walnut Shrimp.  The mayonnaise sauce they..."

"When TSO was first offered in Austin, it was very good. But as time passed, like with many businesses, cost cutting strategies seem to appear. I was a big fan of Drunken Beef. Until last,  I had not tried TSO for a year because I received a terrible tasting mushy Drunken Beef. I saw TSO bragged about a new Drunken Beef recipe, so I tried it. NEVER AGAIN. Too..." Read more

"The flavor of the Sesame Chicken sauce was good, but the chicken itself was overcooked and just plain chewy; and had zero crunch to it. It was also mostly just dark chewy meat, very little white. Disappointing considering the high price for the food, and the restaurant having such high ratings. It was below average at best; I couldn't even finish it."

"My mom and I wanted some good Chinese food since we hadn't had any in a long time. So I suggested we try this place since the reviews were so good. I ordered the bok choy w/ brown sauce and the orange chicken with broccoli. My mom ordered the crab ragoons and shrimp fried rice. We both were disappointed with our meals. My chicken was cooked hard and had no f..." Read more

"sauces are good and the tofu is well prepared, except that it is cut into far too large of pieces. tofu is at least three times the size of what I would classify as bite sized. meat dishes appear to have bite sized cuts, so I am not sure if this is a conscious decision to make the tofu Dishes worse by making it harder to eat and ensuring that the protein to..."

"FROWNING as I eat it, how sad. It doesn't matter what dish I ordered, the veggies are all hard and undercooked OF COURSE, why did I expect anything different?? The rest of the dish, bland. Isn't Chinese food known for its depth? The hot n' sour soup, I had to DUMP IT down the frickin' drain because it literally tasted like nickels, yes METAL. Thanks a **** i..." Read more

"I'd love to give Tso a better review but here's my issue. Any time you're charging almost $20 for delivery Chinese food, the standard can't be low quality/dark meat protein. It just can't be. I've had plenty of Chinese takeout in New York and the quality is better there for half of the price. The delivery is great. The driver tracking is great. The food just..." Read more

"We tried this place for the first time 2 nights ago. We weren't impressed. The lomein noodles were hard and didn't taste like a "traditional" lomein. The wings were flavorless as were the vegetable egg rolls and the pot stickers. We really thought it'd be better! Maybe it was an "off" night."

"I was so excited to try this because the pictures on insta looked so good. I got the drunken noodles and they were just bad. The noodles were all stuck together in short clumps, there wasn't enough sauce, and the beef was so tough and rubbery it was inedible. I knew when I saw it that it wasn't going to be good, and it was the worst drunken noodles I've ever..." Read more

"I ordered honey walnut shrimp. It was slathered with so much mayonnaise it was inedible. This is the first time I have ordered from here, I am from out of town, and the reveiws were good, so thought I'd try it. It was terrible. The wonton soup was Incredibly salty, as was the fried rice. This was not worth 32 dollars at all. Huge waste of money. I was cr..." Read more

"I had the most bland meal ever at Tso on Sunday. It did not help that I asked for chili oil and did not receive it. Had I gotten it I would have drowned my food in it and I might not be so bitter about my meal. I ordered the salt and pepper tofu. Bleh. It was not tasty. It was soggy and had no flavor at all. I realize tofu can be bland but I feel they shoul..." Read more

"Ordered orange chicken and drunken noodles. Flavor on both was good. Orange chicken was a little spicy and I was not prepared for that. Unfortunately, both dishes felt like they were made cafeteria style and had been sitting in their pans all day waiting for someone to order. The orange chicken was a bit stringy and over cooked. The drunken noodles were stuc..." Read more

"Blah! Don't waste your time. They drew me in with their blue crab rangoons because most places don't actually add crab anymore. They were good, but at $2 a piece plus the rest of the meal were not worth it. Ordered the combo lo mein and drunken beef. Both were completely devoid of flavor and texture was bizarre. One star for the Rangoon's and one star becaus..." Read more
