We ordered egg drop wonton soup, wonton soup, an egg roll, roast pork fried rice, shrimp and…read morelobster sauce, and roast pork with Chinese vegetables. Unfortunately, the egg drop soup was not tasty, and while the egg roll was okay, the shrimp and lobster sauce was horrible. The sauce was too thin, and the container contained only three shrimp and five pieces of artificial crab. In my more than 65 years of eating Chinese food in various places, including NYC's Chinatown, Chinatown in Philly, Brooklyn, Staten Island, New Jersey, Florida, and other locations, I have never encountered artificial crab in this dish. The owner insisted that it was authentic.
The roast pork fried rice was tasteless, with roast pork pieces the size of a grain of rice. The roast pork with Chinese vegetables was also disappointing; there were very few thinly sliced pieces of roast pork, mostly fat, with just one water chestnut, two pea pods, a few small pieces of baby corn, no mushrooms, and primarily celery.
On the positive side, the Chinese fried noodles were great.
I did call to complain, but after a frustrating conversation, I informed the woman that I would never order from her establishment again. If you decide to take a chance on ordering from there, be sure to check your bag. By the way, ordering over the phone was challenging because she doesn't understand English very well. Although her son does, he's not the one giving the orders to the cook. Good luck!
Additionally, I was unaware that the former owners had sold the restaurant, as their food was quite good. I would have given zero stars if the app allowed it.
