    Hot and Sour soup
    Jasminn W.

    So this is an Eat 24 restaurant near my job. I ordered my favorites - Hot and Sour soup and mixed veggies. I ordered a pork egg roll for good measure The soup was delicious with just the right amount of broth, egg, and veggies. Upon opening the lid, I noticed the nice large mushrooms! The soup was spicy and made my nose run a little but that is how a HOT and Sour soup should be. On to the veggies. Most of the time when I order this from a Chinese it's covered in a sauce and besides seeing what I'm eating you can't really taste the difference. Eddie's veggies taste like veggies. I love it!! They were fresh and crisp and I could taste them. The egg roll was perfectly crisp and flavorful. Thank for being yet another delicious choice while at work. Also, the staff were very friendly. My to go order was packaged very well to ensure no leaks from the soup and that the food stayed nice and hot. All utensils and sauce needed were included.

    Gen Tso's Chicken (dinner special) I asked for No Onions (not sure if there are onions & sub the Broccoli w/ Green Peppers. YUM

    I had been waiting for several weeks for this place to open, driving by it almost daily, waiting for the paper to come down from the windows while they were setting up. Definitely worth the wait. I got one of their dinner time specials, with tax it was $8.43, not bad at all. I got the Gen Tso's Chicken dinner, it came with an egg roll. After a 5-6 in drive home and a few more mins of unpacking the car the food was still super hot and very good. The Gen Tso's had a really nice flavor, was not soupy or greasy at all, but good consistency and just a great flavor to the sauce. The Fried rice was my only slight complaint, but not enough to warrant losing a star, this place should have five stars. the fried rice was just really salty, too much for my taste, but still good. The egg roll was nice and not greasy either like I've had other places. I'm pretty picky about chinese food, but this place will defintiely be a place i'll go again. The wait was not long at all, no one was ahead of me, the restuarant is Clean, there ar 2 tables if you'd like to sit and eat, the staff was very frienly and the food was ready pretty quick too. Tucked away in a shoppping center in college park, right next to the MOM's Organic Mkt on Rhode Island Ave, don't miss it, check it out, you'll be glad you went. Im going to try something new each time I go !

    Very much a grab-and-go place. Limited seating. Lunch specials are very affordable ($5.50) for a big portion. Food was about average. They have a wide selection of food. They deliver, minimum $11 order, fee $2. I only eat here so much because of convenience. General Tso - Would order again Sze chuan - Probably won't order again Kung pao - Won't order again Hunan - Would order again They have very affordable lunch specials with a variety of selection. *Edit Wouldn't order again: - Pork egg foo young (overcooked and just full of onions) - Curry chicken (bland) - Sweet and sour chicken (chicken dipped in thick batter and the sauce had a really fake pinkish red color. no veges at all) Would order again: - Hunan beef (the beef tastes better than the chicken) - Mongolian beef - Pepper steak with onions - Pork or beef with mixed vegetables (veges are baby corn, bamboo shoots, carrots, celery, broc mix)

    Starting @ 12 o' clock:  beef stick, general tso, Szechuan beef, shrimp/scallop w/garlic sauce, orange chicken sp, curry chickn

Service is always friendly and fast, and the food is packed with flavor you don't often find elsewhere Konjac Noodle Salad - Sour vinegar flavor with a nice kick. I loved the little konjac noodle bundles -- super bouncy and great at picking up the sauce. It's a perfect summer appetizer: refreshing with crisp veggies like cucumber and carrot but doesn't hold back on flavor. 3.5/5 Sour Soup Dumpling - Delicate skins with a savory pork broth that leans more comforting than sour. The filling falls apart as you bite into it and tastes like a mix of pork and vegetables. Simple, clean flavors 3/5 Spicy Beef Noodle Soup - My favorite dish so far! The broth is beefy, spicy, and rich with depth -- layered flavors that feel satisfying but not overwhelming. The meat was flavorful and chewy with fatty pieces that melt in your mouth. Loved the chewy, knife-cut-style noodles that soak up the broth, and the pickled veggies plus fresh cilantro kept it light and bright. 4.25/5 Cold Rice Noodle with Spicy Fried Chicken - Super sour but well-rounded -- flavorful without being sharp. I usually don't love rice noodles, but these were soft, bouncy, and satisfying. Surprisingly, the fried chicken stayed a bit crisp even in the broth. It's fried in a way that's drier and chewier, but that concentrated the flavor instead of making it actually taste dry. Great summer noodle dish 4/5 Signature Fruit Tea - Definitely on the syrupy side, which I expected, but still decent. Lots of blended fruit flavors -- sweet, slightly artificial, but enjoyable if you're in the mood for something fruity 2.5/5

We have been familiar with the area for years, as my father-in-law lived 3 minutes away, and recently we realized this was his go-to carryout. After 3 visits, I can say it's one of the best in the DMV, thanks to its flavor and food choices. You will find Japanese options like sushi, American-Chinese dishes like orange chicken, similar dishes, and Cantonese food like roast duck, Hong Kong-style noodle soups, and whole fish. They are family-owned and operated. Every time we come, the elder father is always gracious and provides excellent service. The restaurant is always quiet; you can hear conversations in the back, and as customers arrive to pick up their orders, we haven't witnessed any negative interactions. Customers are always happy with their food, and the staff say thank you. The only negative is the space. The building itself is older and outdated. In the summer, it is hot, and now in the winter, there is no heat. They have found ways to make it work, like space heaters on each table, but it can still get uncomfortable if you are dining in. The back area near the bathroom and the bathroom itself need a thorough cleaning. To me, it's a turnoff; it doesn't affect the food, but it does affect the dine-in experience. Again, overall, I love their food and believe it's a local gem worth a try.

It was packed but we got one of the last tables available and were seated right away, others that came later had to wait. Service was great--staff were friendly and attentive. My favorite dish here is the Fried Chicken Wings with Garlic Sauce (Bone-in)--lollipop style wings, the flavor is unique and delicious, and the portion is huge! The Noodle with Pork & Black Bean Sauce and Noodle with Veg & Beef Spicy Seafood Soup are my top favorites noodle dishes here. We also got the Fried Dumplings, which were just okay. For drinks, they have a variety of Soju, another drink favorite of mine lol. Highly recommend this place!

    Pros- Clean establishment…read more Cons- High priced Food is ala carte Service could be more attentive We came to check this place out as my daughter likes it. In the door the place was clean and well lit. Our server was attentive to us in the very beginning b I t did decline. Menu choices to me were a little odd to include everything is ala carte, you dont even get rice with a meal. We were a party of 8 so we all ordered something different. For me the food lacked flavor and the fried beef was like eatting beef Jerry. We had some children with us who dont eat with chop sticks and getting regular utensils seemed difficult. Our server filled our waters in the beginning but that was it, after that finding her for anything was not happening. Finally, they attached a automatic gratuity which i have an issue with, I am a great tipper but if service sucks then it should be my decision on how much to tip.

Total (not including tip) came out to approximately $49. What's Hot - Menu. Excellent. It's also written in Chinese in addition to English. For those of us familiar with traditional ethnic Chinese food, a menu written in Chinese is a good sign. They have traditional Taiwanese and Chinese food like scallion pancakes, sesame balls, beef noodle soup, soup dumplings, etc... Very good variety and there appears to be something for everyone, possibly with the exception of vegan dishes.. - Quality. Pretty good. Their scallion pancake was soft, not too oily, and not too salty. I prefer the scallion pancake to have been a bit more thick and flaky, but that's my personal preference. To be fair, still delicious. Their chive and pork dumplings definitely had a delicious chive flavor. Substantial and the wrapper was not too thick. Their spicy sesame paste tofu had a good flavor and substantive. The chili oil wontons were not too spicy and had a good flavor. Again, my personal preference would have been for the dumplings to have been more substantive, but still pretty decent. - Service. Pretty good. It appears most, if not all their staffers, speak Chinese (Mandarin), which was also helpful, because I specifically ordered in Chinese. I asked them about the spice level, because I wanted to ensure it would not be too spicy for my friend. - Price. Pretty good value for menu and portions. - Location. It's pretty easy to find. Also within convenient walking distance to the Silver Spring metro. The inside space is pretty good. Tables can seat a minimum of 2, all the way up to 8. What's Not - Quality. The sesame balls are smaller than I expected. They're the rough approximation of a ping pong ball, maybe smaller. I was disappointed, because I like sesame balls that are substantial. - Service. I specifically asked for soup spoons, because we were eating dumplings. Instead, they gave me regular spoons. Not all the dishes come out in the order you hope. For example, main dishes may come out before the appetizers. This is going to be dependent on your personal preference. - Parking. There is parking near the restaurant, but it's going to be dependent on the day and time. Final Answer Worth coming back.
