Shiquan Wonton

73reviews

Ordered from DoorDash 1️⃣ 蒜蓉粉丝竹蛏/Bamboo Razor Clams with Garlic and Vermicelli- The flavor was extremely salty, but the vermicelli was quite filling. The razor clams were tender and springy, and the garlic sauce was excellent. However, you’ll need a lot of drinks to wash it down—my throat felt dry after eating. 2️⃣ 蒜蓉粉丝扇贝/Scallops with Vermicelli in Garlic Sauce- Similar to 1️⃣—also very salty but with a satisfying texture. The scallops were fresh and paired well with the garlic, but again, you’ll want to keep a drink handy. 3️⃣ 番茄雞蛋麵/ Tomato and Egg Noodles- The portion size was huge, definitely enough to share. However, like the other dishes, it was overly salty. The eggs were generously portioned and perfectly cooked, adding a nice balance to the dish. 4️⃣ 紅油炒手/ Wonton with Hot Chili Oil- The chili oil had an aromatic, rich flavor, and the wontons were stuffed generously with a flavorful filling. This dish stood out as a highlight despite the overall heavy flavors. 整體: 不要這麼鹹,會給高分 很可惜

I would have given them 6 starts if there’s a choice. Food is always amazing and authentic. My extra star is for their service. I ordered spicy wonton but the first bowl was just full of broken wontons, stuffings and warps were separate. They replaced with a second bowl and told me they were trying to boil a third one because there are still some broken wontons in their second try. Finally they gave me a perfect bowl of wontons! See the picture. The first two bowls were wrapped differently so they were so easy to be broken when boiling. Very good service If you want to know what does good hand-made wontons look like, see the wrinkles on the skin. They attached so tight to the stuffing that they wrinkled like that.

EVO 重慶

265reviews

We prefer takeout from EVO any day rather than the P place. The EVO dishes change every day?!!! EvO just tastes better and is a really good value for the lunch special plates. The staff are as friendly as expected, generous on serving sizes, and fast.

The foods are little too oily and salty here. But concerning the price and portion and flavor, can’t ask for more in tight budget.

Zhangliang Malatang Champaign 张亮麻辣烫(原GG BOWL)

36reviews

One of my absolute favorite spots in town! This restaurant offers an incredible selection of flavors for Malatang and Malaxiangguo. All the ingredients are laid out beautifully, allowing you to pick exactly what you want – from meats to fresh vegetables and noodles. The ingredients are always super fresh and the broths are rich and flavorful. Whether you're craving something spicy or mild, there's something to choose from.

I've never been to a restaurant like this, and not in a good way. In terms of value, this was at the bottom of the list from literally every single restaurant I've ever eaten at. There was nowhere to park, I was forced to pay two blocks down the road to park my car. They charge $15 a pound and I swear they weighed the bowl or something without zeroing the scale. Very little food, somehow came out to 2 pounds. It was $30 per person, so $60, plus tax. Rice was a $1 upcharge. They charge you an additional fee if you want to pay with a credit card (pass the expense off on the consumer). Cash payment will lower your bill for obvious reasons. They still ask for a tip if you pay with a credit card on top of all the additional charges. The service here amounts to responding to a vibrating token, then you go get your food at the front counter. When you are done eating, you carry your dishes and place them into a receptacle that houses them. The total bill for 2 bowls was almost $70. This is the only restaurant I've been to where I lost my appetite in disappointment at purchase. The value here is lacking. Also, when you are picking your food, you use tongs to touch various red meats and fish, then you use the same tongs to touch vegetables and tofu later on. There is cross contamination galore and you will definitely experience the results later on when you make it to the bathroom. I will never return to this restaurant ever again in my life.

Sushi Ichiban

399reviews

I went here for my birthday dinner yesterday. The food was delicious and amazing. I got some sushi! Upon paying, me and my friends paid for drinks. We didn’t know we had paid for a canned drink over a bottled drink and the owner/manager was yelling at us and being aggressive that we grabbed a bottled drink (that was 20 cents more expensive) and we had offered to pay the difference and he just continued causing a scene. I’d go back for the food, 100% but the manager needs therapy. (Check his reply for a sorry excuse over pocket change and a fault ON HIM)

The tempura was good, the build and presentation of the sushi looked good, but the taste wasn't there. For some reason, this area likes to keep the fish at room temperature and it affects the texture and flavor of the fish. There were also quite a few flies, most of them babies so there is breeding happening on site or near enough to be considered the same. The gentleman at the counter was plenty nice and courteous. The ayce aspect of this restaurant is more when they want to/can not something to plan on going into the restaurant.

Kung Fu BBQ

198reviews

Heard good reviews about their lunch special, but I cannot recommend it. $11 for 2 entrees with rice, and a drink. Not sure if it was an off day but the chicken tasted old/stale and the flavors weren't great either. Evo Cafe around the block is a better alternative for $2 less

Great food. We had hot pot, both spicey and regular broth. Tried beef, lamb, pork, fish, quail eggs. Many vegetables to choose from, a few of which I could not identify. The woman helping us was great since it was our first hot pot experience. She mixed up some sauce for us too, which was perfect. One price for all the veggies and protein you want. And a soda included. Delicious! The day we went it was almost 100 degrees outside. Winter would definitely be better for hot pot.

C-U La La Noodle

105reviews

This Chinese restaurant exceeded all of my expectations. The food is bursting with authentic flavors and prepared to perfection with a very affordable price.l. The ingredients were fresh, and the balance of spices was just right. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both casual dining and special occasions. The staff is friendly and attentive, adding to the overall wonderful experience. If you’re looking for incredible Chinese food, this place is a must-visit. I can’t wait to come back and try more dishes!

Just so so (一般般). The lady up front taking doesn't speak Chinese. That makes you wonder how authentic the cooks are 🤔. Ordered the cumin lamb which I've had a thousand times in China (孜然羊肉), and it's never breaded over there. That makes me wonder if it's really lamb? 🤔 Ordered the dry fries four season beans 干煸四季豆. I've had them a million times in China. This place cuts them up into 1" pieces, and they're not cooked in with the spices and chili's like they do in China. I'll sum up my review in 3 simple words: 不好吃. The pics on the wall look nice but it's not 正宗的. And for the subpar Chinese that you get, it's certainly 太贵了

I love them. They work hard and get orders made quickly, even when they're super busy they're still very fast. They're open until 3AM too. This is a great spot for some quick Chinese takeout or delivery. They're good people who I will gladly give my business to. No complaints.

The delivery driver couldn’t find our location due to me just moving into a new house and getting the address number wrong and the delivery driver called me stupid and sped off and then when i opened my order which i ordered chicken lo mein i realized it was beef, which i am allergic too. So i called and told them they got my order wrong and i was allergic the lady yelled over the phone that they recorded my call and that i had ordered chicken lo mein & i said yes correct i did order chicken & you sent me beef! She proceeded to yell at me saying no you ordered beef, after just saying herself she had me on recording ordering chicken lo mein! Absolutely ridiculous and terrible customer service! I will never spend my money at this establishment again! They really could learn and thing or two about politeness & how to treat customers as well as learning how to respect their customers who are spending money there. I hope the next person has a better experience than i did myself.
