Tianchu Restaurant

I ordered Taiwanese Sausage Fried rice, and it is an understatement to say that I am disappointed. The rice was not even fried? Looks like regular steamed rice, maybe not even washed? I added a photo of a bag of frozen cubed carrots and peas as a comparison of what is in my “fried” rice because I am pretty sure this is exactly what went into my “Taiwanese sausage fried rice” the biggest piece of egg I’ve eaten in this dish was smaller than the hair on my toes. The main selling point of this dish is supposed to be the fancy sounding Taiwanese sausage, however, this is definitely a regular a*s hotdog was maybe toasted in an air fryer in my college dorm. This is the poorest representation of a fried rice dish I have ever seen, and even I could make a more authentic fried rice dish in my run down college house with a budget of 10 dollars. Never come here for your own sanity.

Delicious and fresh tasting food. Very personable staff with an eagerness to help with the ordering. Small, clean restaurant with photos of some of the most popular menu items on the walls. Generous portions, not fancy with garnishes and extra flourishes. Home cooking at its best. If you like bland food, skip this place; herbs and spices are used liberally.

The red bean milk tea is sweet and delicious, I will be going back for more! The Bibimbap is fantastic, I will be back for more of this as well! The food is really good here and there was no wait for a table, this is one of my favorite Asian restaurants on down town Ann Arbor, I highly recommend checking this place out if you're hungry, I felt like I had plenty of great tasting food. This restaurant is set up in likeness to a casual Asian diner and I think Tianchu is locally owned and operated, taste apart of Ann Arbor!

I ordered the eggplant and tofu and it was good, but I had it delivered, and there was NO RICE included with the entree. It was not obvious during ordering. But, what chinese restaurant doesn't include rice with their entrees? Very disappointing. I called and the women on the other end said you have to order it separately. I went back to the Door Dash order and did not see an obvious choice of rice on the side. Also, got the shrimp shumai. Okay, but no dipping sauce. Overall, there are better choices for Chinese food in Ann Arbor.
