Arrived at hotel in evening and needed a late evening bite to eat. Good Taste was close, open and fair price.Egg drop soup had right serving temperature, but was bland flavorless. However, the pork fried Rice tasted excellent. Very flavorful.I dined in instead of taking back to hotel room. The restaurant inside is in need of refurbishing. The inside temperature was cold and the dining room thermostat displayed "50". The restaurant workers all wore heavy coats.Canned soda is offered with options displayed over counter.The restaurant does have an A grade displayed in the window. For less than $10 it was an alright meal, but I wouldn't dine in again. - George W.
