Based on customer reviews, experiences at Asian express appear to be contrasting. One reviewer had a very negative experience, describing the food as bad and bland. They reported difficulties with the order-taking process due to a language barrier and the staff member being on the phone. This customer's "extra spicy" General Tso was described as burnt, tasting like ketchup without any spice, despite the addition of many chiles. The sweet and sour chicken ordered by their boyfriend was also deemed gross, and the rice was cold and crunchy. This reviewer also found the portions small and the prices extremely expensive for the quality received.

Conversely, another reviewer expressed surprise at the low Google rating, stating they have visited Asian express numerous times over the past couple of years and have never been disappointed. They praised the food as great, the portions as generous, the prices as reasonable, and noted that the restaurant is open late.

As a local Chinese restaurant, Asian express has received mixed feedback. While one customer experienced significant issues with food quality, service, and value, another has had consistently positive experiences over multiple visits, appreciating the food, portions, prices, and late operating hours. Potential local users may want to consider these differing opinions when deciding whether to try Asian express.

Please listen to the reviews and beware before trying this place. Very bad and bland food. The man who took our order was talking on the phone while taking our order. We had to repeat the order 3 times. It didn’t seem like he spoke English or understood it. We asked for chopsticks and he said he didn’t know what that was. I ordered an extra spicy genera tso and all I got was burnt crispy pieces of chicken or just the outside layer of it. It also tasted like ketchup?? Nothing like the typical general tso. Like I said, I asked for it extra spicy and they added a ton of chiles onto it but it still didn’t taste like it had any spice. Keep in mind that I don’t like extremely spicy food. It also took a long time to get the food even though we were the only ones there. My boyfriend got the sweet and sour chicken and it was also gross. On top of that the rice was cold and crunchy. Extremely expensive for the less than mediocre food you get AND the portions are small.

I'm not sure why the Google rating for this place is so low. I've gone to this place numerous times over the last couple years and have never been disappointed. The food is great, portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and they're open late.

This food made my day! The owner was very kind and knows exactly what to do in the kitchen, right as he got my order he started to freshly *make it to order* it’s so hard to find genuine cuisine that is right from the hot plate. Thank you for the amazing food!

Placed an Uber eats order to be delivered to the hospital. Despite requesting chopsticks and a side of extra spicy Mayo - I received no utensils and no spicy Mayo and salmo roll, though I ordered spicy tuna! My roll was fried :/ Will not order from here again! 2 rolls, $30 and no condiments or utensils :/
