The Orient Restaurant

Food was pretty solid. Never had sesame chicken without sesame seeds, but still good. Didn't get pictures of the sushi, but very solid. Got Volcano and the lacey (I think?). Both good. Huge entree portions.

Very nice restaurant. I will be returning. I believe the owner took my order. It was packaged securely so nothing spilled in the car. My wait time was less than 10 minutes during off-peak times. I ordered the small Mongolian Beef and a small Egg Drop soup. They even added a side bag of crispy strips for my soup! Everything was very very delicious!! I've tried many Chinese cuisine restaurants around White Marsh, Essex, and Nottingham and this place is the best by far. Both for great quality food and atmoshpere. The owner was extremely nice and polite. He told me they recently renovated too. The owner should be proud of his accomplishments :)

Heard a lot of good things about this unassuming (from the exterior) restaurant so time to give it a try. I went to the restaurant around 2:30pm on a Friday afternoon. Placed my order and waited less than 15 minutes as the place was mostly empty. Our order consisted of egg rolls, shrimp toast, pork fried rice, pork egg foo young, and Mongolian beef. (See photo for all items received including white rice, condiments, and fortune cookies.) We were delighted to see what used to be normal sized egg rolls ($4.50)! Beautifully cooked, full, and crunchy! That’s enough to bring me back right there! The shrimp toast ($8.95) was a surprise as again, back to the good old days, the order was eight pieces, not four as is the norm these days. It was just a tad dark and past being perfectly fried but not greasy. The pork fried rice ($7.95/small) was good with plenty of meat and veggies (no scrambled egg though - it wasn’t missed). The pork egg fu young ($10.95) was accompanied by the usual brown sauce on the side. Three fat patties were filled with pork and vegetables and, again, not greasy. Nothing worse than taking patties out of the container and seeing an ocean of oil. The Mongolian beef ($10.95/small) was the only disappointment. The lack of onion in the dish was very noticeable as well as the very thin sauce. But there was an abundance of cabbage, and the beef slices were good sized as well. Our meal was about $47.00 with plenty for several meals over the next few days. There’s plenty of parking available, too. No mention was made when our order was placed but apparently there’s free soda with some orders. There was a can of grape, orange and lemon soda in the bag. We weren’t asked for a choice and, as we don’t drink soda, I gave the cans to a customer leaving when we did. I definitely will be going back again to try some different dishes.

A staple of Perry Hall. Very friendly service and really tasty food! Was a bit disappointed how long it took to reopen the seating area after Covid, but happy to say it’s back to normal! Never tried their sushi but their Chinese food is on point. Definitely recommend.

10/10!!! This was our first time dining in at this particular location since they reopened. Since covid, we could only order take out or dine in at their Towson location. This was the best experience! The food was delicious it tasted better than the take-out. It was packed, but the service was on point. No complaints at all! Loved every dish!
