    Almost $9 for pork fried rice and not a single piece of pork
    Kimberly T.

    when trying to understand the high charge the woman literally took money out of my hand as I then said no , it shouldn't be this high she gave me a receipt. as I kept trying to tell her that the order written was not what I wanted. she kept giving me. Avery rude ...noise and would not come back to the counter. when getting my food just said I would make the most of it. I was charged over $8 for a large pork fried rice I didnt want and NOT ONE SINGLE piece of pork just few peas and onions. so even if I did actually order the large pork fried rice that I did not it wouldn't be correctly made either. I also stated I wanted a small white rice the size that comes w meals and was charged for a larger sized one. instead of just ordering sauces I wanted to be nice and add 2 small rices. what costs me $5 and then I tip $5 always same amount to do in cville and waynesboro today was almost $15 here w no tip after the service and again pork rice w absolutely no pork. the woman's rude attitude was the worst . I'm same amount of time to other Chinese restaurants so will go to them and not this one anymore . have used over the years but this was my last time today.

    Vegetable egg roll. Mixed vegetables in garlic sauce (says it's spicy but it not, still good tho)

    Best Chinese food in the area (Amherst/Nelson). Granted, the service isn't your typical, "hello, this is Chen's, how can I help you?" service - the food is solid. If you want some good local Chinese food, this is the spot to go.

    Chen's is just another strip mall Chinese restaurant. Nothing special here, I ordered the Orange Chicken and steamed pork dumplings. The dumplings were good, but I've had better Orange chicken. Food C Staff C Decor D Location C Health Inspection Grade A

    Toilet paper in the fridge in plain sight of customers? Just weird.

    Lousy place. Customers service is terrible and so is the food. Bought noodle soup and dumped it in trash.

    As a W&L alum, Napa Thai is always at the very top of my "must revisit" list whenever I'm back in…read moreLexington. I ate here all the time in college, and years later I still haven't found Thai food that hits quite the same. The ambiance is great, not too formal but still great for a date night. The food is consistently amazing. You really can't go wrong, but my personal favorites are the pad thai, panang curry, drunken noodles, and the fried rice. Everything is flavorful, comforting, and exactly what you want after a long day exploring or reminiscing in town. What makes this place even more special is the staff. They are unbelievably kind and welcoming whether you're there every week like I was during college or just stopping in every few years like I do now. They have also always been incredibly accommodating with my mushroom allergy, which I really appreciate. The fact that they even remembered me years later honestly says everything about the level of care here. Lexington may be a small town, but Napa Thai is truly a hidden gem and one of the places that makes coming back feel so nostalgic. If you're in the area, it's absolutely worth a visit

    Very disappointing take-out order. Fried dumplings with almost no filling and spicy beef salad with…read moretough beef and almost no flavor. Very pleasant person who took my order over the phone and greeted me at the reception desk.
