About Oriental Chinese Restaurant
Oriental Chinese Restaurant is located at 1800 S Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19145, USA, offering meal delivery and takeout services. They can be contacted at (215) 463-9333 or +1 215-463-9333.
One customer described their food experience as "extremely bland," noting that "the chicken in the fried rice tastes like it was boiled not fried and the lo mein is not remarkable at all." They found the "sesame chicken is fine," and the "sezchuan chicken was the best thing that we ordered but it wasn’t spicy at all." This review indicates concerns about the flavor of some of their dishes.
Another customer initially intended to dine in, mentioning "it says dine in on the sign!!" However, upon entering, they observed "only a handful of chairs and the one table was packed against the wall, with the ton of boxes against one wall nearly covering it," suggesting very limited and perhaps unappealing dine-in conditions. This customer later decided to order takeout and had a significantly different experience with the food, stating "oh my GOD it was so good!!" They specifically praised the "sweet and sour chicken" as "the absolute best" and noted the generous portion, saying "they literally gave us a plastic bucket full of it!"
Based on these reviews, Oriental Chinese Restaurant in Philadelphia, PA, appears to have inconsistent food quality depending on the dish. While some items like the fried rice and lo mein were described as bland by one customer, the sweet and sour chicken was highly praised by another for its taste and generous portion. The szechuan chicken was considered the best among one order but lacked spiciness, and the sesame chicken was just "fine." The dine-in environment seems to be very limited and possibly cluttered. Local users considering Oriental Chinese Restaurant might find some dishes to be very good for takeout, particularly the sweet and sour chicken, but should be aware of potential blandness in other dishes and the unsuitable dine-in situation.
The environment for dine-in appears to be very limited and possibly cluttered with boxes. Services include meal delivery and takeout, with one positive experience highlighted for takeout. Features include a reportedly "absolute best" sweet and sour chicken with a very generous portion, and a szechuan chicken that is flavorful but not spicy. Drawbacks mentioned include bland fried rice and lo mein. No specific promotional information is available in the provided text.

I’m gonna be honest this food was extremely bland… the chicken in the fried rice tastes like it was boiled not fried and the lo mein is not remarkable at all. The sesame chicken is fine, and the sezchuan chicken was the best thing that we ordered but it wasn’t spicy at all
We initially came here with the intent of dining in–it says dine in on the sign!! But when we walked in, there were only a handful of chairs and the one table was packed against the wall, with the ton of boxes against one wall nearly covering it. But later we decided to just order take out from here, instead, and oh my GOD it was so good!! The sweet and sour chicken is the absolute best, they literally gave us a plastic bucket full of it!
Great take out spot. I stop in for two Shrimp Egg Rolls when I’m hungry for a snack and nearby. Lunch specials are good and a good price. The interior is dated and isn’t really for dining in, what’s left of it gives an 80s Chinese takeout vibe. Theres a small table with some mismatched chairs, and a few chairs to sit and wait for your food.
This place has done in and takeout. No table service. Appears clean and is open. Decor is dated. I ordered General Tso chicken lunch special for $535. Large portions. Rice and chicken seemed fresh. Food was good. Staff friendly. They seemed to have busy delivery service which always a good sign. I would recommend based on first impressions.
Very solid choice for a quick bite for dinner. My wife and I are visiting and this place was right next to the Airbnb so we just walked in and ordered. Only take out which worked fine. Very generous portions and everything was cooked perfectly. Chicken was juicy and saucy, no complaints
