As a delivery driver, I really appreciate when restaurants make the pickup process smooth and TSO Chinese Restaurant absolutely delivered. The order was ready right on time, neatly packed, and waiting at the front counter as soon as I walked in. Staff greeted me right away, confirmed the customer’s name, and had me out the door in under a minute. The restaurant was clean, organized, and clearly ran with efficiency in mind. A fast, hassle-free pickup like this makes all the difference when you’re on the road. Definitely one of the easiest and most professional pickup experiences I’ve had. Highly recommend!

This was my second time at Tso Chinese. The first time I came just for the egg rolls, and this time I came back for their World Famous Blue Crab Rangoon and the Drunken Beef Rice Noodles. I’m very picky with Chinese food, and as a Venezuelan, I’m still hunting in Austin for that old-school Chinese flavor we had back home — that wok-style fried rice I haven’t found yet. But I’ll say this: you don’t waste your money here. Food & Portions The food comes out hot, fresh, and the portions are worth it. Everything I’ve tried has been tasty, and service is quick and polite. Clean (And Yes, I Look Inside) I’m not the kind of person who just looks at the front. I’m the one who peeks into the kitchen area — yes, I’m that curious. And from what I could see, they work clean, organized, and with care. That matters a lot to me. Let’s Talk About the Sauce… That sweet-and-spicy sauce they serve with the egg rolls and the Blue Crab Rangoon? I’m obsessed. I love sweet-and-savory flavors, and theirs is perfect. I would honestly come back just for that sauce. Easy Ordering (Even If You Don’t Speak English) They have self-order kiosks, which is great if you don’t speak English. You can order by yourself with no pressure and no confusion. I’m not giving 5 because I still haven’t found “the one perfect Chinese spot” in Austin… but so far, in the 78748 area, this one is the best I’ve tried. Right now, it’s the boss of all the Chinese places around here. I’ll be back to try more dishes. Tso Chinese is clean, reliable, and definitely worth recommending.

Ok here is the thing… if you haven’t eaten here yet , you are truly missing out on some delicious food. Nice portioning, amazing flavor. We usually order the Mongolian beef or chicken, love it! Today while I was waiting for my order I was reading reviews and kept seeing how delicious the crab Rangoon were so added an order. I can see why they are world famous, they are huge and stiff with crab. Could make them a meal. Best I have ever had.

First time trying Tso Chinese & I was very impressed! The food was delicious. The best part is it’s made fresh to order!!! The spicy drunken noodles were recommended by an employee. & they were amazing!! That dish did not disappoint. You can easily share with someone as the portions are generous! For a small charge you can add egg rolls/spring rolls plus 1 of their 3 soups to your order. We added the vegetable spring rolls with duck sauce & egg drop soups. All of it was tasty! & well worth the wait.. Definitely going back to try other dishes & appetizers in the near future! Highly recommend. Great customer service too so the ordering process is easy & comfortable.

Just ordered via DoorDash. Being about 30 mins way from this establishment I was elated to see the food was still hot! Heck yeah. The portions are generous and the flavor is definitely there. The Generals Tsos was kicking. Very delicious.
