First time trying Tai Wu. Tho I did like the Sautéed Prawns & Scallops, it should have been served in a box with trimmed-out corners to keep the snow peas crisp and fresh (mine sogged quickly).
The Stir Fired Rice Vermicelli Dried Shrimp & Pork (*Fried) is good - the dried shrimps have a concentrated shrimpy flavour that was fun, and noods were good - not too dry.
B.B.Q Pork was good, tasty but not too fatty.
Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings are a perennial favourite, and these guys made them with an interesting-tasting external crust that I liked.
Will go again to try more, and can recommend.

I wish Doordash would revert this silly rating/review system of 'Disliked' 'Liked' and 'Loved'. It's meaningless. I would rate this order maybe 3/5 stars and I can't truthfully select 'Liked' or 'Disliked'. I went with 'Disliked' since I want to highlight a negative.
I've ordered from Tai Wu quite a few times before and dined in person even more times and generally enjoy the food. It's usually solid, tasty, comfort food. Good portions, nothing super fancy. I've gotten porridge a few times via Doordash, when I was ill or just needed something warm and comforting, and while it's nothing to write home about, each time managed to hit the spot. However, this time I ordered the Abalone & Chicken Porridge 鮑魚雞粥, which I've ordered a couple of times before, and the abalone and chicken tasted off. Undercooked, probably. Maybe not fresh. I couldn't eat them and ended up just eating most of the plain porridge. It was very disappointing since it was my 'main' dish.
I also got the Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings(8) 椒鹽雞翼 (8), which were good. Maybe a 7/10.

Very disappointed. The Honey Walnut Prawns 核桃蝦球 was a tad grainy, like the flour wasn't cooked properly, and the serving was SO SMALL for the cost. While the BBQ Combo over Rice 雙拼飯 was dry and hard to chew. There was plenty of it, but it didn't look anything like the picture. One star.

Abalone & Chicken Porridge 鮑魚雞粥 really hit the spot. Had a very sore mouth from a dental procedure and this was perfect. Seafood Corn Soup 海皇魚肚粟米羹 needed a little more umami but was still good!

Bbq pork fried rice had 10 pieces of pork... I did not like my experience with this meal.
I don't do lower rating bc the other dish was ok and the timing was okay
