We didn't feel like ordering take-out, so we actually ate here this past weekend.
We've ordered take-out from this place before and liked it, so we decided to come here. That, and my husband had a giant hankering to visit the froyo place next door.
It's your typical take-out establishment. Only four tables lining the walls, three booths and one table-and-chairs set-up. We ordered at the counter - I got the chicken and veggie combo that came with two egg rolls. Husband ordered the sweet and sour chicken combo with an egg roll and a chicken wing.
One thing I don't like, no fountain drinks. If I wanted water, I would have to pay for the bottle. And they only have bottled drinks, there were a few cans of Coke though. Also, the cooler they use for the drinks also holds produce for the restaurant. Meh, I wasn't too sure about that, but they have a 99-score from the health department.
We found an booth, which looks like it had seen better days, to sit in. The booth was comfy and had plenty of room. No joke, our food arrived in five minutes. To steaming plates full of food made it to our table in record time.
The food was great. A good mix of veggies, perfect amount of sauce and two crispy egg rolls to go with it. I didn't have to put anything on my food, it was good the way it was served. A nice change of pace - yellow rice instead of the typical fried white rice. I enjoyed that. As with any Chinese food, the more I ate it felt like my plate was refilling. I couldn't find the bottom of my plate. There was so much food!
My husband devoured his sweet and sour chicken...with his bare hands. Granted, we were given plastic forks that weren't the most suitable for stabbing crispy chicken with. He got a heaping serving of sweet and sour sauce and was basically eating his food like chicken fingers. At the end, he drowned his poor rice in soy sauce and ate it all mixed together.
The decor leaves much to be desired, but again, this place is take-out. This is your run-of-the-mill take-out plate known for delivery, not eat-in. I should mention that several families came in and ordered food while we were there. This place seems pretty popular.
I ended up with a to-go box and feeling completely satisfied. If only their combos came with an egg roll, crab ragoon AND soup - I'd order take-out from them. read more
