Awesome Chinese food! Really fair price. All of this was only $21.99! The sauce for the fried dumplings is really tasty, I’ve never tried anything like it. The sesame chicken and noodles are flavorful, but not the best I’ve ever had. All in all, a great deal in my opinion. Also, the woman at the front desk was very friendly.
I saw a pretty good ratings so I tried it. I don't know if something's going wrong with the business now or what but I was sold literally rotten food. Rotten. Two bites into an egg roll it was terribly rotted. I had to throw it all out. I lost 19$. The man was very friendly. But standing at the counter I could smell rotten seafood smells. I figured I was just near a trash can or something but I found out later the problem was much deeper. The soda cooler was warm. I don't know if it's purely a cost-cutting measure or what exactly the problem is but there's definitely a refrigeration issue. After my experience, I'm convinced that this establishment needs a complete sanitation overhaul not to mention obtaining operational refrigerators, and discarding expired food. I would give more than one star for service because the man was nice, but there's no getting around the fact. When you are serving from a food establishment you just don't hand customers rotten food. You are responsible to be able to tell whether or not you're handing somebody something that can make them deathly ill.
I have lived in that area on and off and the first time I ate from them. Everything was good. I recently tried them this year 2023 and I wasn’t even able to bite into the food as soon as I went into the location it was very dirty inside. I watched the man move, dirty plastic bins through the big, huge deep freezer. Take something out, put it into the microwave that was frozen and if that wasn’t enough, I watched a mouse run across the floor as I was sitting there waiting on the food. Thank God I didn’t pay for it. I just got up and walked away.
I was looking forward to some take out but I think I should have ordered someplace else. I hate leaving a bad review but I did give it two stars which is very generous. Everything taste like onion. The soda was flat. The order was messed up and took quite awhile. All would have been forgiven if only the food didn’t taste so bad. I’m afraid that I will not be ordering here again and honestly that makes me feel bad all the way around. Thing is; how can you mess up fried dumplings. The sauce isn’t very good either. Haven’t gotten to the fried rice or generals chicken yet but I’m Leary at this point. Maybe I just caught a bad night.
Food was very good and ready quickly. Nice and hot! Much better than in the past. The beef lo mein was great. The steamed dumplings and dumpling sauce was delicious. The sesame chicken was a little sweet but good. Good value, fast and friendly service. Overall, I recommend and will go back.
