I'm giving them 4/5 because they are the latest restaurant open in frostburg andddddd they deliver. They don't take card for delivery which is kind of inconvenient but their delivery guys are always super friendly. Their chicken is sometimes questionable but like I said there's limited options when it comes to restaurants plus I'm vegan so now I only get veggie lo Mein. also....if you want to order a Chinese donut...they make you order 10. No you can't cut it down to 5. We appreciate y'all being open and delivering so late! -Hungry Frostburg Students read more

I ordered here a year ago and forgot why I haven't ordered again in a year so writing this review to remember next time I'm desperate for American style Chinese food Orange Chicken? Oh u mean 5 spice chicken with star anise (Kikkoman orange sauce exists yall) General Tso Chicken, Spicy? Oh u mean 5 spice chicken with star anise (General Tso sauce exists yall just dump in a pot and heat, toss in some chilis for authenticity) Pork spare ribs? Oh u mean 5 spice pork spare ribs with star anise (this would prolly be fine if everything else didn't also taste like 5 spice with star anise) I picked up my order and the ambiance was kinda weird, place has a giant 'No racism tolerated' sign in the front, I guess these folks have had some bad times in recent years. Guy at the counter seemed surprised I was friendly and stuff? However this does not excuse the star anise abuse. read more

Eastern Express - Everything tastes like this and Star Anise - Chinese Near Me - Frostburg, Maryland

We ordered online, have been customers for years and there has never been a issue leaving the food at the door so i assumed it would be okay, i hopped in the shower and could hear the delivery driver BANGING at my door for a very long time. I literally had soap in my hair and couldn't answer i thought it would be okay like always but they left with the food and blocked my number... i called from a different number and they answered and the driver was rude on the phone and told me to wait out front, then when he was here told us he could hear people inside which i assume was the tv and saw people running up and down the steps, there is no way to see the steps... then told us if there is issues like this again they won't be delivering here again. safe to say i will be taking my business else where, so rude for no reason!! read more

Wife and I just moved here and gave it a try. Solid food with great portion sizes. Ordered several dishes at the register and they were ready in less than 15 minutes. Will definitely be back. read more

Food was bland and greasy. I was hoping for a good Chinese takeout but this was definitely not it. The fried rice would have been halfway decent if it wasn't so greasy. Actual white meat chicken in it. My search for good Chinese food continues. read more

I was craving some Chinese food and decided to order .The man on the phone didn't have the best attitude on the phone but did not penalize the establishment for it .I ordered the sesame chicken and crab ragoons . The meat was very old and dry , you can tell it has not been cooked recently and was just recooked . I could barely enjoy it , and could barely chew it . The rice was perfectly fine and enjoyed it . Same with the sesame chicken , the ragoons were recooked and old, you can tell they were old and it was no cream cheese in the middle .I was truly upset with the food and disappointed because it's the only one relatively close to me . read more

Food was delicious. Take out only. Window clerk had no personality; maybe it was a language issue. The restaurant, which is not open for dine-in was unkept. read more

Probably the worst take out experience I've ever had. I ordered the Chicken Lo Mein, and it was literally drenched in grease. The chicken was under-cooked, soggy noodles, sauce tasted weird, just all around awful. Also, the inside of the restaurant didn't look very sanitary. I would give this place zero stars if I could- do not recommend. read more

Awesome Chinese food really kind people. The portions are big and price is good! Their egg rolls in general tso are the best! Haven't had anything bad from here and all my friends like it too! read more

A great place to stop and get a quick bite nice people and great Chinese food. Not the best place to eat in at but still have great food.

Good basic place for a bite. I am a little jaded as I used to remember this place as an all you can eat buffet which brought in a lot of college kids from Frostburg. The latest they have changed away from the buffet. Still good food and I like the doughnut like desserts to finish off the meal. I would recommend this place to anyone with a little bit of time and adventurous palate. The parking is on the road but I have always been able to find a spot relatively close to the front door. The staff have always been nice and quick, remembering that this is not a fast food stop. I like the locally owned and operated and try to support it. read more

This place sucks . It is almost like they do not care. The only reason I keep ordering because it is the only non pizza restaurant that delivers. Very disappointing every time. read more

Amazing food. But I would suggest not eating there. Their tables aren't the cleanest, but other than that amazing. I highly recommend.

Eastern express is a great place. So delicious. I murder my food here every time. I take no food hostage. General Tsos never gets away, because I aways get my man. read more

Eastern Express - the front of the restaurant at night - Chinese Near Me - Frostburg, Maryland

Big fat nope. Used to be okay back when I was in college, but it's gone waaaaay downhill. I ordered takeout from here a few months ago and it was awful. The sweet and sour chicken was mushy and not fully cooked. Even the fried rice was bad. I do not recommend. read more

I made a account just to give this place 5 stars! They filled my sweet and sour chicken until the box could barely close I opened it ate one piece of chicken and couldn't close the box! 10/10 never a bad experience the food was hot to the touch and very quick! I recommend any chicken, the shrimp fried rice and egg rolls read more

Mediocre at best. AVOID ENTIRELY IF YOU HAVE A SHELLFISH ALLERGY -- I have ordered pork egg rolls on multiple occasions and gotten shrimp egg rolls instead. read more

A blessing. As a sweet and sour chicken aficionado I at first was skeptical of the aforementioned dish's sauce--Eastern Express does a more savory and sour sauce than most places. Since, I've scorned all other sweet and sour sauces as indelicate and simple. Lunch portions are ace and Dinner portions can feed two. The dining room is always empty and if you eat in, you're served almost immediately. I've yet to find a better Chinese food joint. read more

To be honest I must first reveal my bias. I could eat Chinese food every day, and that's a fact. When I order carry-out I always bring home enough for lunch and/or dinner to last 3 to 5 days. That being said, I must say Eastern Express has met or exceeded my expectations every time, and their prices are good. My only problem is I live in Grantsville which is outside their delivery area. Didn't matter; when I got the craving I'd make the drive anyway. When I found out they'd meet me half way at the Hen House Restaurant on Rt.40 I was elated, and my consumption almost doubled. Needless to say, they've been in business for a long time; and in a college town ta'boot! read more

Not bad for some place in the middle of no where. I had some chicken noodles and Kung pao which was nasty. The noodles were ok. I eat them all. I've had worse. If you are tired of the franchise restaurants and looking to try something new, I would swing by. read more

Avoid this place if you care for your life. MSG hell-hole, heart palpitations guaranteed. To add, their chicken is rotten, guess they hope the sauce will mask the smell and taste. YUCK!!! read more

This place got great Chinese food. I love their chicken with broccoli, chicken wing, crab rangoon and general tso chicken. You can also dine in with great atmosphere read more

Eastern Express is by far the preferred Chinese cuisine of most if not ALL Frostburg State University Students. It is one of two in the town and of five in the surrounding area (excluding Cumberland). The restaurant caters more towards delivery/ pick up orders. In that capacity they surpass all competitors by leaps and bounds. The dine-in experience is less than to be desired with it's dim lighting and dated decor. In my years at Frostburg I only ate in the restaurant once and only saw other patrons eat there one other occasion. Where the restaurant lacks in dining amenities, it makes up with their most notable dish the General Tso's. Its best put this way when dining at other establishments throughout the U.S. with friends we always compare the General Tso's against that of Eastern Express. Eastern Express also, does the little things correctly with their wonderful egg rolls, always steaming hot as well as delicious. *When ordering you must also take into consideration that they only accept cash for deliveries. read more

This place was ok, the general tso chicken was over cooked and really tough to chew same goes for the fried chicken! I really enjoyed the shrimp fried rice and the donuts ! That's really about it couldn't finish the chicken entrees which I thought would of been the best entree! read more

Honestly I'm a pretty easy to please person, but after trying this place for the second time I'd say that it is below average in just about every way. Staff doesn't really seem to make an effort... general tso's chicken was passable and I would order it again if I was desperately craving Chinese. The hot and sour soup was actually so bad I threw it out (l cant remember the last time I tossed out food from a resteraunt) read more

It's Americanized Chinese food. They deliver really fast. Their food are good to share with friends when you don't feel like cooking.

This is my favorite Chinese place in this area. They have amazing food full of flavor and it is served very quickly. I rarely have to wait longer than 5 minutes for my food. And I like that they deliver, too. Prices are affordable. Love it! read more

Enjoyed the shrimp and lobster sauce so much I ordered shrimp fried rice to go. Unfortunately I found the meal to be lacking in flavor. Might not visit again. read more

Food OK. Help not friendly and don't like eating in on paper plates and plastic forks.

I tried to order $20.00 worth of soup to be delivered to my sick college student. They would not take payment over the phone and slammed the phone on me when they hung up! read more

I love how amazingly fast Eastern Express delivers! We actually clocked them one day....7 minutes... WOW!!! The delivery guys is super friendly and the food is comparable to most chinese food places we've been to. I like that we can request almost anything on the menu to be more spicy or less spicy depending on our tastes. read more

Kitchen seemed like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. Woman who took our order seemed high, and they forgot one of our dishes. Terrible and won't be back. read more

This food is disgusting. I have eaten at this place before a few times and I didn't really mind it as I would be heavily under the influence. I stopped eating from them after one of the delivery people left a message on my phone saying how "I better be at the door when he arrives or I won't eat." Against my better judgement, I ordered from there today, April 28, 2014 a General Tso's Chicken w/ Shrimp Fried Rice. The shrimp wasn't cooked through. The chicken had no sauce on it, the rice was, somehow, overcooked and I ended up throwing up everything within the hour. Save your time and money. Guarantee I won't be wasting any money at that establishment ever again. read more

The prices are good and they don't take long if you come in and order. However deliveries are slow and the food is mediocre. They're open till 2 a.m. during the college semesters, so that's a plus. read more

Great late night delivery. May take some time to get your food but every time they arrive it's piping hot and tastes great. Crab ragoons are a must as well as general tso's with pork fried rice. The pork egg rolls and dumplings are also great. read more

Let me preface this by saying that I've only eaten here once, but I'll never go back. The food was awful, I was skeptical at first so I just bought a chicken fried rice. I ended up throwing away most of it because it was completely inedible. I didn;t think you could mess up something so simple but they did! read more

Solid food at a really good price. If you go in and order, it only takes a few minutes for them to get your food and then out the door you go. I highly recommend it. read more

This is a typical joint for cheap Chinese food. Delivery times are perfect. I do not think this place has ever taken longer than 10 minutes to get food to my door. read more

Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had! I ordered dinner and got it delivered. Once the food arrived I noticed it was wrong. So I called them and told them. The guy told me he would send the correct food back to me but I had to return the food that they gave me. I said no problem. He told me they would have the correct order to me shortly. After that he called me from his cellphone 3 times and I called back and asked who it was as it was a number I didn't know. He told me who it was and asked me if I thought about what I wanted to do. I said I told you I want the correct food. He then told me again that I had to give them back the food I said no problem but what are you going to do with it? He said re sell it. I said you can't do that, that's illegal. He said well that's what we do if you didn't open it then there shouldn't be anything wrong with it. I said but you still can't do that and gave him an example like if I went to McDonald's and they gave me the wrong food then they have to either let me keep it or throw it away. He said well I don't know what they do but I know what we do. He then began to get angry with me and hung up on me. Needless to say my husband took the food back and got a refund. The guy told my husband that I was an "f***ing liar". I will make sure all my friends and family know this and I can assure them I will no longer be back. So Giannis is what we ended up with atleast I always get great food and service there!! read more
