Gen Hoe 1 Restaurant

Great Chinese place carry out only. One of the best parts is you can get the lunch and dinner specials on the weekend also. I’ve been going here for a long time and highly recommend it.

Some would call this a Hole in the Wall, but do not be deceived by its appearance. Gen Hoe is quite excellent. The service was great, The staff was kind, and the food was just right. We had piping hot Sweet and Sour Chicken which was just the way I like it. We also had Chicken Fried Rice and Egg Rolls, both were awesome. Don't sleep on this place.

I'm being generous with giving it 1 stars. A long time ago this place used to be nice to eat at but now it is very rundown, they don't even have the light up boards anymore to show you the meal it's all in pictures and grainy menu pictures blown up, the places as old as I believe it's food is now, there is no taste to the meat anymore, and whatever that sauce they put on there forms like a gelatin and it's not very good, it's not a saucy steak meat like other places, I recently got the steak dinner not enough steak and no taste whatsoever and again that gelatin mold sauce on top of it was not the highlight of the dinner. It was supposed to be extra spicy extra hot, I did not find any of that at all, not like at the other places I have where my mouth is burning but I love it, .I also tried the hot and spicy chicken, once again no hot and spicy there either, definitely not enough chicken and again no taste to it whatsoever and again a gelatin like mold of sauce which I just can't get past, hell I even put it in the microwave for 4 minutes and I've got a brand new microwave and it still didn't bring it down to a sauce. I'll find other places to go and better places. It's a shame because this place did have good meals at one time but that was a long time ago. The inside is his run down, as its food.. there is no love in the food anymore, there is no flavor in the food anymore, once you don't put the love in the food anymore there is no flavor and therefore why should I buy it. There's a lot of other places I can go to where the food is much better. And I plan on doing so.. unfortunately I'll have to give this place up. If you don't know what good Chinese food is then I guess you'll keep coming to this place, but I know what good Chinese and Japanese food is, and this place just doesn't have it anymore. FYI the teriyaki beef on the six sticks, it's more of a pork beef, you'll be able to taste it when you order it, it is not teriyaki beef it's more of a pork infused with beef. Not for my liking at all, kind of gross actually. You're expecting teriyaki beef and you taste pork beef. 😤😮‍💨 They don't have the coupons anymore on their menus, hell they don't even have the neon sign outside anymore it's a painted sign now, no more neon menu inside, it's all paper and dark print, the place is just going downhill and there's no quality to it anymore. Just like the quality inside the restaurant that's what you'll receive in the food. And again I've been coming here a long time, but after a while you just can't hide the fact that the food is no longer a good quality. The last time I went in there the place was in shambles, cardboard all over the place, the chairs and seats all a mess. So I don't know what's going on here. But when you don't take care of the business, the business will take care of you, and I assume this place won't be in business very long. And this is coming from a long time customer. Take care and good luck. I hope you find some more love in your food and put that love into the food and maybe it'll taste good.

Was down the block and decided to stop in for lunch. I ordered two lunch plates and shrimp toast. The shrimp toast was really good BUT I found a hair on the first piece I grabbed. Made it home and began to dive into my beef and broccoli and was extremely disappointed. Meat was tough and had no flavor, the sauce was thick and gelatinous with no flavor almost as if it came out of a jar or was from frozen, just not good at all. Added some soy sauce and other stuff and it was not salvageable. I got chicken fried rice with my order and the rice had no flavor other than old oil, added some Dark and regular soy sauce, some msg and homemade chili oil and it was somewhat ok then. Oh and there were another 3!! THREE hairs in the lunch plate!! I will never go here again. Should’ve stuck to my normal spot. The other plate was shrimp fried rice and sesame chicken, the sesame chicken was better than the beef and broccoli, I didn’t try the shrimp fried rice but my family member did say they weren’t happy with the experience overall, and agreed to stick to our regular spot. The owner took my order and was nice and pleasant and the food was super hot (freshly cooked, however I doubt the food itself was fresh). I would give 2 stars for that but having such a bad tasting plate AND 4 hairs in my food, I can’t go higher than a 1….

Never got any food. Looked at menu and prices online went to store to place order and the prices were much higher. Higher to the point that I was not paying it.
