Kung Bo Chicken and orange chicken

Great service, pretty speedy, generous portions. Tastes about the quality of a decent mall food court which is enough to hit the spot. Orange chicken is better if ur only going to get one

Steamed Dumplings
Amy U.

Really good Chinese takeout! My girlfriend picked us up a variety of items for a girls night in and we really enjoyed the food. We ordered Happy Family with rice, spring rolls, egg rolls and steamed dumplings. The dumplings were definitely my favorite, so good and the perfect texture; the dipping sauce was super flavorful...really fantastic(I also dipped my spring roll in it...yum)! The egg rolls & spring rolls were tasty and nicely cooked; the meat & veggies in the Happy Family was good. We are almost everything and we would definitely order takeout again very soon! Thank you!

Peking Chicken ($5.75) lunch combo with Chicken Fried Rice & Pork Egg Roll - huge portion, pretty good flavor.
Fred B.

This is a tiny, takeout only place with a very big menu - seriously the menu is " XXL ". The portion are huge, the prices are more than reasonable, the food is your typical Americanized-Chinese fare, and the service is very good. I've only tried the Crispy Scallion Chicken and the Peking Chicken (both lunch combo's), but both were pretty good - a few too many extraneous vegetables, but still good. The Egg Roll is also nice, not at all greasy. The fried rice that comes with the their lunch and dinner combs is Chicken Fried Rice, and I just don;t care for the chicken in it - thin & dry. Not a bad choice for decent food, nice portion, good service, and reasonable prices. I'll be back.

Crispy scallion chicken

Finally!!! I found a good quick Chinese takeout spot somewhat close to where I live. I don't want to have to get on the highway to go somewhere like Golden Wok to get takeout Chinese food. Luckily that doesn't have to happen anymore. I went here for lunch and was ready to eat. I ordered the crispy scallion chicken. The lunch comes with rice and an egg roll. It was very good. The flavor of the sauce was very tasty. Chicken was cooked perfect and the egg roll was good as well. They give you a pretty big portion considering it was lunch. I was very satisfied with this place and will give them my business again.

Haven't the slightest clue what it is!

No longer my go to spot. Honestly off the list. I saw and experienced too many wrong things to want to go back for a while. Called in my order(8:38) and was told 15 minutes. Arrived to pick up my food at 9. Food wasn't ready, but didn't acknowledge the fact it hadn't even started. Finally got an order at 9:15 and something said check it to make sure. Didn't check it inside because there was a customer with some type of respiratory issue from the way he coughed. Even thou he was in and out checking on his order, wasn't taking any chances. The order was wrong. No where close to mines. Advised even thou the order number was right, I didn't order shrimp. Finally left with the correct order at 9:30. Saw the person taking order literally take the food I returned with and put it back on the counter after I told him I upped both meals up outside. Major health violation. I ordered 2 orange flavored chicken combinations. At least 6 people waiting over 30-45 minutes getting the wrong orders. Once I finally got the right order, the tasted off. Flavor was good and pork fried rice was really off, not too mention over cooked hard pieces. As pictured I found this piece of whatever. Glad I didn't bite down on this. It's just the way it looks, solid and hard. Take your chances if you like.

a styrofoam container filled with rice and vegetables

This was my first time ordering from this establishment as my go to is Golden Wok on Bridford Parkway. My family & and I will not be ordering from here again as my experience here with both food and customer service was unsatisfactory. For reference, The fried chicken was overcooked and salty. The chicken chow mien was not in fact chow mien (we received no noodles and the online menu was not user friendly when it came to making specifications. The meal also had large chunks of unsliced onion & pieces of celery and the fried rice was not properly cooked and with visible grains of plain white rice mixed in. I called to explain dissatisfaction and was denied my request of a partial credit as a solution and was instead offered a store credit, which is something I would not use due to the quality and taste of this order.

Beef Egg Foo Young(burned)

Waited for a long time and got burnt egg foo young. I was there almost 30 minutes guy orders almost the exact same I did got his order in about 15 min. Poor customer service more laughing in the back, it's ok to joke at work if your stuff is together.

Just what the doctor ordered....a whooping bowl of hot and sour soup!

We've had amazing Chinese food in San Francisco Chinatown when we lived there during our post…read moregraduate studies, and have to say this place measures up! Best we've had yet in the Triad area by a long shot. First off, the online ordering process is super easy, and the estimated time for pick up was spot on. Highly recommend ordering online beforehand. The place was slammed, packed in like sardines on a Saturday evening. Everyone waiting for orders, and even if you don't order prior, the wait would still be worth it. This place was a well oiled machine, everyone knowing exactly what to do and how to pump out stellar authentic Chinese food quickly and efficiently. Flavorful dishes, authentic spices and sauces, juicy meat, perfectly cooked noodles and rice...you name it, this place does it right. Crispy scallion chicken is the bomb! Each and every other dish we had was top notch, including the pork egg foo young, chicken lo mein, house special fried rice (chicken pork and shrimp). And can't leave out the perfectly fried pork egg rolls...taste overload. Can't wait to come back and try more of this amazing and truly authentic Chinese joint.

Not even a foot of snow can stop me from getting to this place. When I tell you there's 30 people…read morewaiting inside for food, both phones ringing, and regardless of the weather... That kitchen is packed with people cooking up the absolute best Chinese food and takeout in the Triad. It doesn't get better than this folks. This is currently, and always has been, the best spot to get your fix. Even my family members from NY who have access to amazing Chinese takeout on every corner agree. Everything is delicious, but make sure you get enough of their scratch made pork egg rolls to have one with you meal, and one for the air fryer to go with your leftovers. They are addicting. Try the crispy scallion chicken, along with your favorites. Golden Wok forever!

Stopped in today for a late lunch. First impression: This isn't your typical Chinese food joint. I…read morewas impressed by the visuals. Plus it was super clean. Not sure how old the interior photos are on their Yelp reviews but looks better in person. Dude running the place was waiting on tables, answering the phones, taking orders at the front, bossing people around in the back and bringing the food out of the kitchen and serving it HOT! He was a one man show today and killing it! Plus he was so nice. About the food. I ordered an Eggroll and Curry Chicken with fried rice. The eggroll was not the best I've had but it was good. It tasted fresh and no signs of the red pork that you sometimes get (thumbs up).The Curry Chicken sauce was really good. The chicken was nice and tender, the vegetables were fresh and crisp. My only complaint would be to not serve green peppers with the yellow curry sauce. It's my own personal preference because peppers give me heartburn. I will go back for sure to try some other dishes and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for relaxing ambiance and fresh, delicious Chinese cuisine.

We didn't order them this time, but they're definitely on the list for a future visit. Everything we did get was packed with flavor. The crab rangoons and pork dumplings arrived hot and fresh, and the Dan Dan noodles, orange chicken, chicken chow fun, and garlic beef were all very tasty. One of the biggest positives here is consistency of flavor, something that's been surprisingly hard to find with a lot of Chinese takeout spots we've tried in the area. The only real miss for us is that egg foo young isn't on the menu, which my wife loves and always hopes to find. That aside, this is a super solid takeout option for flavorful, authentic, and fresh Chinese food.

Hello Neighbors, Today I ordered food from Dragon Express…read more It was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and the BEST Chinese food I've ever eaten here in the area.

In all the years we have been getting takeout, never had an issue with the accuracy of our orders. They have nice sized crispy breaded wings. Their fried wontons and crab rangoons are also good picks. I chuck them in the air fryer because the sweaty containers do make them a bit flat by the time you make it home. Egg rolls are what you expect. Hunan chicken is not very spicy but has a good flavor. Lo meins are good, too. Food cost are up everywhere. 2 combo plates, small order of wings, and wontons set me back $42. The extra $4.00 upcharge on the combo for house lo mein versus chicken was unexpected (dinner combo is already $10.75) but I didn't ask and the girl answering the phone didn't offer so that's on me. Lesson learned. Next time, I will stick with the chicken. If you liked Mr. Wonton back in the 90's you will like them, too. Similar cooking style and portions.

I'll be honest--I avoided China Cafe for a while because of the older Yelp reviews. But last night…read moreI needed something quick, ordered on DoorDash, and I'm really glad I gave them a chance. Everything I ordered was actually solid. The lo mein? Chef's kiss. The noodles were cooked perfectly, nice and saucy, and they even offered it spicy--which I've never been offered before. The meat was tender and well-seasoned. Personally, I wouldn't mind a little more cabbage in it, but that's just preference. The fried chicken wings really surprised me. Usually I end up throwing wings in the air fryer to crisp them up more--but not these. They were already crispy, fresh, and flavorful straight out the container. Now let me talk about the sweet and sour chicken... I've NEVER been a fan. I always thought it looked too breaded and soggy, so I avoided it for years. When I opened my order and realized that's what I got, I was low-key annoyed but decided to try it anyway. And wow--that ended up being my favorite item. The sauce was perfect, and once I dipped it myself, it completely changed my mind about sweet and sour chicken. The soup was also really good--super flavorful with that rich broth and those sesame oil "gold spots" on top (you know it's good when you see that). The only thing I wasn't big on was the plain fried rice--but that's more of a personal preference since I usually don't go for plain fried rice anyway. Next time I'll try the house fried rice. Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised. This was a great experience, especially for a last-minute order. I'll definitely be ordering again--and next time I'll come back with pictures because this was a spur-of-the-moment decision. China Cafe, you proved me wrong

I stopped by for lunch and was disappointed to learn they were takeout only, no longer taking dine-in seating. I ordered the shrimp and broccoli with a small side of rice, and while the taste was good, the portion size for the price was inadequate. The most disappointing part, however, was the pre-packaged wonton chips that came with the egg drop soup. Unfortunately, this will be my final visit.
