Tian Chinese & Korean Restaurant 8801 Baltimore National Pike, Ellicott City, MD 21043

"This is probably the best Korean-Chinese place in the Mid-Atlantic. Other places have declined while Tian has maintained its quality if not improved. Usual order is the gan-jajang and jjampong. Mapo tofu is good as well. Tangsuyuk is average, but realistically how do you differentiate yourself when you are serving fried pork pieces with goo?"

"We ordered black bean noodles for takeout. I called 45 minutes before closing, and the rude lady who reluctantly took my order told me to hurry up and go to the restaurant as soon as possible. Despite the pouring rain, I rushed to the restaurant within 15 minutes of placing the order, only to find that our order was not ready and people were being seated to dine in. After making us wait, we got our food and went home, only to find that they did not include the black bean sauce. They only packed plain noodles. I called the restaurant and told them what happened, and without offering a single apology, they said "just come back and pick up the sauce." I had even tipped them 20%, which I immediately regretted. I understand that mistakes happen, but restaurants also need to be held accountable for their mistakes and at the very least, learn how to apologize. For the lady to have the audacity to tell me to "hurry up" to pick up my order, and then later tell me to "just come back" to pick up what the restaurant forgot to pack - is unacceptable. No customer should be treated this way. Spend your well-earned money elsewhere!"

"Pretty good stuff! I don't find a lot of Korean-style Chinese restaurants in this part of the country, so this was a real treat. Really friendly staff too!"

"Have been here several times over the last 4 years. Quality is consistently high. Polite service, good food quality. Based on the clientele, it is very authentic Korean food. Will come again."

"Korean food in MD is what it is. I think I prefer Tian over Da Rae Won now. Jajangmyeon is decent and least you can do a combination of things. Stay away from kkanpunggi here, taste like only ketchup."
