Enough cant be said about this spot. Definitely the best Chinese food we've had in NE Ohio by far. Expectations were high seeing they were boasting being top 100 in the USA but I get it. Everything was made fresh and came put piping hot. The chow main was fantastic even though we meant to order the lo mein (which was also fantastic, it's the best I've ever had). The egg foo young was perfectly cooked and the chicken with garlic sauce had the perfect balance of chicken and veggies. Dining room is clean and service is quick. Will definitely be returning soon.

Not worth almost $15/person, but it wasn't bad. Egg rolls were better than the food, but the fried was I liked too. Subgum isn't my favorite. Orange chicken does have a kick.

Amazing food amazing number of dishes available. I ate to bursting. Very affordable. Staff super friendly.

Food is really good, however when I scooped my fried rice, there must have been a wire from a scotch brush in the food. I found it as I ate. Be cautious when eating. The food is still delicious as always though.

Very disappointed in having to write this review, but I want to bring awareness to others and hope an inspection will be done. We have been coming here for years. This was our go-to for Chinese take-out until a recent incident. Two completely different meals were ordered and we both found bugs/worms in our food within the first couple of bites. We were in shock and in denial. An immediate call was made to the restaurant to let them know and they kindly offered to make us a new meal, but we declined. They then offered to give us a refund. Both meals were returned and a refund was issued. When we brought back the dishes, a couple employees looked and confirmed they were indeed bugs and apologized. Overall, the restaurant is take-out only/cash only, and the interior is very unkept and dirty with visible spiderwebs and dust.

I got this last Thursday and had to write a review because it was so good, it popped into my mind again. I used to get this restaurant all the time years ago, but had stopped going. I remembered the quality being a little inconsistent. I had a random inkling to try it again and I’m so glad I did. The woman was friendly on the phone and nice when I went to pick up my food too. I am happy to say the food is exactly like I remembered it being. Everything was fresh, piping hot, the chicken was white inside and perfectly crispy and golden brown, and the rice was hot and delicious too. Sauce had great flavor, not too sweet. Thank you for a good meal because I really needed a comfort meal when I ordered it and it did all that it needed to

It hits the spot when you need Chinese food and you don’t wanna go very far. The food isn’t that great but it’s pretty good for being downtown Deerfield. Service is great. Food comes quick. There’s only two tables and four chairs total so it’s not really a great place to eat inside. We only have the fried rice so I can’t give it a true honest review because that’s all we had, but the fried rice was pretty lacking in flavor and not very fried.

Ordered General Tsos with pork fried rice, egg rolls and chicken chow mein. Everything I ordered was delicious except for the Chow Mein. I expected that to be a noodle dish like at Panda express (sometimes known as lo mein) but it was a stewy stir fry of veggies and maybe I came on an off day but that one dish was flavorless and visually unappealing. Will try more things here when the craving arises. Give em a try! Update: I ordered Lo mein this time and it was exactly what I wanted. Thanks for the consistently tasty food!

The food is sooo delicious and that service is so nice. When I went to pay they were so nice. The food looks so good. I have allergies and they have always taken great care of me.

Update: We tried again, we had fried rice and an entree, unfortunately food was terrible. Downgrading... ********** We were skeptical to try this place given the poor reviews based on  service and food. We rolled the dice and just had chicken fried rice and Singapore noodles for lunch today. We were reasonably satisfied with the taste and quality. Although fried rice was bit too oily and bit salty  overall the flavor was good. Not the typical flavor less rice you get in my most places. Singapore noodles were barely ok. A bit too dry and lack of  flavor.  I feel they are bit pricey for the quantity and quality.

Avoid this place on Christmas Day. They can’t handle the to-go orders and a full restaurant of dine-in customers. My fiancé, her mother and I ate here in the restaurant on Christmas Day before seeing a movie. It took an hour and a half to get all of our food. Soup wasn’t hot. 45 minutes after ordering, the waitress came by and asked “what did you order, again?”. Not a good sign. Food came out staggered. Ate as food came instead of all at once. No white rice. So disorganized. So slow. Was a disaster of an experience.

Recommended by a friend and a favorite of another friend. Unfortunately, I was not impressed. My food temperature was uneven. Four of my cards were declined for payment, including not entering the correct expiration date and employee's refusal to split two separate payment cards and re-enter info. more. Food was mediocre. Definitely will not return and recommend.

As I lived in Southeast Asia for 10+ years, I can assure you this place has quality authentic Thai food. We got Tom Yum soup, white jasmine rice, Pad Thai beef, shrimp fried rice, and Thai iced tea, and it was all so good. Variety of options to choose from the menu, quality food, good service, reasonably priced, located conveniently in downtown Highland Park. As we sat for about an hour, we saw multiple pick up orders non-stop. Loved by locals and we absolutely loved this place! We don’t get why this place only has a 3.9 rating right now.

From the tofu fried rice to the poultry duck, it was surely good stuff we had today. Another good thing to add is that you can also choose the spice levels too so that things don't have to be always so wildly spicy. Our server was nice too. It has been many years since I have had any Thai food, so this was a great experience to have. Looking for high quality authentic Thai food? This is the place that is best for that in Illinois.

Stopped here for dinner a few weeks ago. It’s been on our list, and we finally checked it off. Bottom line: the food was just okay. The dishes were a bit saltier than expected, which seemed to hide some of the freshness of the ingredients. By the end of the meal, we were both parched and felt like we needed a gallon of water to recover. Service was solid, though. Our server was attentive, and everything came out correctly. The robots delivering the food were a nice touch and kind of amusing. As for the atmosphere, the interior was a bit outdated and looked like it was starting to show its age. I used the bathroom, and it wasn’t the cleanest. Also, it was ridiculously hot in there. Hopefully, just a malfunction, but who knows. I think this will be a one-and-done for us. I’m not sure if we’ll try the other locations, but we’ll see.

Visited this store many times. Today we went there with 6 adults after Christmas. Hot food was OK. appetizers we ordered Five Spices Beef and Cold Marinated Squid Salad. They were awful. The Cold Marinated Squid Salad was not seasoning, the Five Spices Beef feels like from frozen. When a waiter came to ask if everything is OK, we brought a notice to him. The waiter showed a very rude behaver. No apologize to the food and the bad service. We we asked to talk to the manager or owner, said no one was in the store. It was a bad total experience. Feel sorry to the owner having a team like this.

Decent food and customer service. Just wanted to check out the Buffalo Grove location. Food was fresh and staff were welcoming as well. Fried rice took a bit of time to be prepared but understandable given that it is a newly opened one. Also, there were many drive through customers. But one of the staff was kind enough to check on us while we waited.

Came to support the new location! All the crew was so kind and really hooked up our plates. We came during the dinner rush around 5:30pm and our fried rice, chow mein, and orange chicken was FRESH. The interior is so cute and modern, the seating is comfy and clean. My new Panda spot!

Absolutely the best South Indian meals I’ve ever had! The flavors were authentic, with perfectly balanced spices that reminded me of home. The sambar was very rich and flavorful, and delicious. The staff was friendly, and the service was quick. Whether you're craving a comforting meal or looking to try something new, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend.

1. Liked the noodles(spicy and flavorful). 2. Bonda has the texture which makes it more yummy and chutney was delicious too. 3.Tindora fry is quite expensive and also tasted very bad, it has more Besan than Tindora so tastes more like Besan curry. 4. Cut mirchi has my heart, it’s very delicious for the price. FYI All the dishes are super oily, not recommended for the ones on diet and not at all recommended for a cheat meal day too. Overall, yummy but not health friendly when consumed on regular basis.

The food was pretty much cold and looked like it had been sitting all day. Sushi did not seem fresh. Hibachi grill looked good, but nobody was there to cook. Not worth the money but we were hungry.

I feel bad that I convinced my family to go here for dinner one night. We got one plate of food and opted to leave. The food is not favorable and not worth the money. The setup and dinning area is out dated. We also had a bug crawl across our table. I'm not sure if it was an isolated event, but we were already ready to leave. I wish I had chosen better for a special night, we will not be revisiting.
