    Awful taste
    Sunshine D.

    The food was over done and I was home and too far to go back and get a refund. This place was on my way home.

    3.5 stars but rounding uo due to excellent customer service and good value with respect to the…read morelocal competition. The Woodbridge area is not a hotbed for authentic Chinese cuisine so even though they offer some dishes that sound on paper to be less Chinese American like wonton noodle soup with roast pork (a Cantonese classic), it ended up being a mishmash of leftover stir fried veggies with lo mein noodles rather than the signature thin egg noodles and the wonton filling used a cheap cut of minced pork. The only saving grace was that the broth was not laden with MSG, which would have been expected to substitute for a well simmered broth. My advice is to stick with the Chinese American classics like lo mein, beef and broccoli, general Tao's chicken, etc since they execute them well and give two scoops of rice with a lunch special proving $7.95. I think they keep their costs down since it is curbside pickup without delivery or dine in, a consequence post-pandemic which they never decided to reverse. An excellent option if you want solid Chinese -American fare at below market price in the style of a drug deal pickup.

    What went wrong? Everything, No kidding. I reviewed Good Taste Express' review of 4 and then its…read moremenu. Next, I drove there to find the door was locked, and I had to call in my order from outside. So, I ordered vegetable fried rice, Szechuan chicken, and a spring roll. I did not enjoy anything. The chicken was chewy, and its sauce was too salty. The vegetables and rice were not fresh; and the spring roll tasted like it was store bought and frozen. Sorry, I am just being honest. I am sure they had a good reason for locking their doors; and I respect this. However, they need to ask customers what type of condiments they want and not assume a hand full of soy sauce to the already salty food.
