Decided to give this place a try after seeing so many positive reviews, I was definitely disappointed. Food looked good and smells amazing but the general tso’s was not even spicy. It just tasted like a soy sauce based sauce and that was all you could really taste. The pepper chicken was okay and the egg roll just was ok. Don’t think I’ll be back

Great food, quick and easy, and more than anything a wonderful family runs the business. I would highly recommend this place, and support small locally owned businesses such as China Express. :)

This restaurant is great! The food is tasty, and the staff is friendly. My one small complaint is about their website (which is why I gave the service a 4 out of 5). You can order online, but you can't pay online. Also, the menu item descriptions are unclear. The online ordering process is confusing. For example, they advertise a free egg roll promotion for orders over $35, but the instructions on how to redeem it are missing. It turns out the discount is automatically applied at checkout, but this isn't clearly explained, which could be confusing for first-time users.

We've been here quite a few times and each time we're surprised by the quality (in a good way). Despite their size, they have a varied selection of dishes, and they always manage to keep the food fresh even when business is slow because unlike other places, they make their food in small batches and only replenish as needed. The atmosphere is also cozy and informal. You can let them know if something is low or empty and they'll let the cook know to make more (if they haven't already). Also, there's free wifi if you need to take care of some business or get some homework done/turned in while eating. For the taste, freshness, variety, and quantity, you'll be hard pressed to find a better choice in the area (whether sitting down OR getting takeout).

FANTASTIC food at a PHENOMENAL price!! Family is SO Nice, restaurant is clean, and the portions were Tremendous!! Had the Honey Chicken and the General Tso's--both were Amazing!! HIGHLY recommend and agree that this business does do much by way of carry out business, (for a clear reason!), so plan accordingly. Hidden gem right in downtown Williamston! Will definitely be back!!!

Nice family run restaurant. Good food. Clean restaurant. Order ahead they might not look busy but the do lots of take out orders.

the hot pot spots in my hometown can't even begin to compare to Royal Pot. after years of telling me about it, my friends brought me to Royal Pot for the first time and it was incredible! i had an absolutely delicious mojito! everything about the meal was so wonderful. our server was so attentive and sweet! i can't wait to go back!

Great food, authentic flavors, and a cozy atmosphere! Highly recommend trying their signature dishes, especially if you love bold and spicy flavors. Can’t wait to come back!

I had a great experience at Apple Jade! From the second I walked in the door until I left, the service was very friendly, polite, and attentive. I ordered the orange chicken and got fried rice with an egg roll as well as an order of crab rangoons. The orange chicken was satisfying, although maybe a bit sweet for some people. The fried rice was good, but I really enjoyed the egg roll and crab rangoons. I would definitely recommend this restaurant over many of the competing Chinese restaurants in the area!

Updated Feb 2025 This use to be our place to go Our weekly spot , date day Dairy free allergies make date days limited when it comes to eating out Some Chinese doesn't use dairy Some do Almost all Buffets in Lansing do fyi for my followers But it's gone downhill since the "renovations" The food is always cold but egg rolls are nice and hot Plates, sizes and portions are always different for some reason Sometimes you get more or less I usually always order the same thing lately I enjoy brown sauce with non breaded chicken with veggies Not just filler veggies like onions and peppers (I don't mind picking out) Chinese restaurants in America are almost all the same Anyone notice that ? Why is it like that anyways? I'm just generally curious Why does General doesn't get veggies? Why are they all in general the same menu? It's nice they have some unique choices here like honey pepper chicken , Bourbon Mr & Mrs Smith ect I love honey pepper But lately it's been heavy on the black pepper so It's bothered my stomach unfortunately I feel bad for the young new server He gets overwhelmed and behind but tries hard He needs more training A suggestion If you work here and see him in the weeds while you sit at a table on your phone maybe have a lil sense of urgency and help him out once you actually get up? We can see you on your phone then slowly get up and go into the back and stand in the doorway on your phone I only hope it's online orders Automatically assuming everyone is being taking care of in a timely fashion is never the case When we come in Or maybe they don't care I don't know I saw a couple wait 15 min for menus Us 10 for our tea He's running all over the place tho. We didn't come here this week because of our last 4 experiences When you work hard for every penny every experience you spend it on counts Old review from 2023& 2024: Best Chinese in Lansing! Super under appreciated Unique options Combination options Dairy free options Always hot and fresh Delicious Yummy hot tea Great service We love this place

We had a really nice meal here. The crab rangoons were the best I've ever had. Will be back.

My fiancé and I had a wonderful first experience there this weekend. The woman who was running the entire FOH was incredibly friendly and immediately made us feel at home. The food came out quickly and was absolutely delicious. The portion sizes are large and the price is reasonable! Will absolutely return!

Despite a slew of negative recent reviews, I decided to give Asian Gourmet a shot. Upon entering it was obvious that this restaurant was an old school, traditional Americanized Chinese restaurant that was setup primarily for takeout. The menu was fairly extensive with fair pricing for today’s world. Some of the staff could use a bit of training in conversation with Americans as the girl taking my order was a bit short, but I think that was more of a cultural difference than her trying to be mean. My food was ready after a relatively short wait and I opted to sit at one of their few tables. I was generally satisfied with my food. The fried rice was good and the orange chicken was decent but could have had a bit better sauce. I really enjoyed my egg roll and found the crab rangoons to be bigger than what most Chinese restaurants have in the area. In the end, I felt like I had a satisfying meal at a fair price. Keep in mind that they do not really have a way to service drinks, so plan ahead if you want something to drink.

Very good Chinese food. Unknowingly ordered food after they closed (Yelp had the wrong hours), and they were so accommodating and friendly. I would 100% recommend for service. As for food, it was just as great! The veggie lo mein and shrimp sweet and sour were great options. I will definitely try again when I’m back in town. Such a great customer service and reasonable prices!

Some of the best dim sum you’ll find for awhile. Amazing egg tarts. I’ve had them in Chicago, Windsor and Detroit and these ones blew them all out of the water. XO noodles were amazing and the fried shrimp balls are reminiscent of ones I ate in my childhood.

Very good dim sum . Reasonable pricing , service was very friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere needs a little love.

I am not sure what is going on but not meals I ordered today were spoiled.... I ordered the spicy fried chicken and the beef in chili oil. Both meat were spoiled, I am so upset and disappointed. I spent about 70 for 2 meals, soup and chicken. And I did not expect to get food with spoiled protein, I have never experienced this with any restaurant and this is my 1st time ever ordering from them and it will be my last. I just wasted my money by taking a chance ordering from this place. I had to throw away food and money. Please be careful when ordering from this place but I know that I never will again.

I might have to dine into this place to taste its richness, but the food I received in takeout was not how I planned it. I ordered Beef Lo Mein, Veg Fried Rice, Fried Wings, Braised Beef. The portions were awesome for the price point. Beef Lo Mein - This wasn't bad. I just wish Beef was cut smaller Veg Fried Rice - So in my notes, I stated a few soy sauce packets to the side - The rice came out with extra soy Wings - Tasted off-putting and breading was different from traditional wings. Not cooked well enough Braised Beef - This was pretty good. There's a chance this might taste better in person and in a soup. Will have to try one day. Will update on my next dine in if time permits

We ordered delivery and it was fast and well presented. The young chow fried rice is always my favorite. We had the beef with mushrooms, friend shrimp, and young chow fried rice, and the crab Rangoon which was good but didn't taste like crab just cream cheese. Overall, excellent food and speedy service.

Nice Family Run Healthy restaurant. They have a unique 'Diet' Section of menu, where all food is steamed, zero oil nor spice, perhaps a tad of salt. YOu can add your own sauces/spices to it! VERY affordable. Good place to have a quiet conversation too!

Awesome spot for authentic food in Michigan! Worth the stop! We got the garlic chicken plate, the mango sticky rice, the Tom yum soup and a tea leaf salad. Unfornately the tea leaf salad wasn’t added to our bag but the portions were so generous that we were satisfied anyways (+ with left overs). The chicken was so flavorful and it came with a side of some type of tangy fish sauce. I had heard a lot about the soup before coming and it definitely lived up to the hype- so flavorful and packed with ingredients and noodles on the side. The place has a market attached filled with hard to find ingredients and snacks, awesome to browse while you wait for your take out. There is no customer seating for dining in. Will be back to explore more of the menu.

The food is delicious and it's family owned, which I love. They are take out only but have a small store that has some items I love. I tried lychee aloe juice. It was my first time trying that flavor, but I loved it. They have odds and ends and items that would allow you to embrace more of their culture while getting quality odds and ends. I used my walker and was easy to get around. They have a bathroom inside. If you need to wait in your car, especially if a rough day with disability they are willing and kind enough to walk it to your car. When the young lady did, she was so quiet. We were going to go back in ten minutes but looked up and she right there holding are steaming hot food with a smile. I love seafood, and my dish was delicious. The spring rolls were amazing, and sauce is a must. They have a menu with pictures if needed as well.

Our server Turner was awesome! He was so attentive and kept our drink filled and made sure we had everything we needed. The chocolate cake was a favorite and he even brought it to us in a to go box so we could take a few bites and take it home. Great experience!

Amazing food . The chili beans and chicken lettuce wraps were on point. The bottomless lemonade was super. Special mention for the chili prawns.
