Pepper steak fried rice sweet and sour chicken a crab roll and some other items.
Amanda P.

It's your standard buffet. Everything tastes kind of the same. The only stand up for me was the sushi I saw him making it fresh and he reloaded it often. The teriyaki chicken was also good. The rest of the stuff was just overly sweet but if you want a lot of bang for your buck it's definitely a good place to go. There's plenty of seating. It's about $10 a person at lunch time. They kept the table clean constantly clearing old plates. The bathrooms were really nice and clean and well stocked. We were able to get seated and checked out quickly. The dessert bar was fully stocked with ice cream Swiss cake rolls brownies everything you can think of. There was a salad bar with some cold items and then your standard fried rice, wonton soup, etc. I would go there again if I just really wanted to get my grub on for a decent price and walk away full. But if you're looking for flavor you may want to just order a single meal from a place that you really like.

If u plan on ordering from here it's a joke. Just drive there and eat there. The carryout is a disaster

Good food at fair prices. Not fancy, but not trying to be. A solid choice for a quick lunch or dinner at prices less than fast food.

Took a bit for food but they were really busy right after a ball game. Food was really good!!read more

Before I begin, let me say that I live in Chinatown in Las Vegas. I believe I have some of the…read moreabsolute best in Chinese cuisine available to me 24 hours a day. I am aware I need to adjust expectations, and I am. Cantonese Gourmet East touts itself as a takeout restaurant, but it does have the ability to dine in. There were quite a few people parked in random areas out front, so I chose to park next door at a business that was closed. It was a very short walk to the restaurant. Upon arriving it smelled overwhelming of lemon cleaning product. It was extremely clean in the dining area, so I chose to eat there. The lacquered tables were really cute and depicted different flowers and animals appropriate to the setting. I approached the ordering window. It was a very simple hole in the wall that could slide shut behind plastic. I asked if there was tofu. No tofu, so I ordered the curry shrimp, which came with white rice and I ordered wonton soup. I returned to my padded diner chair. I was not offered a drink and I completely forgot to order one. I saw there was a soda machine in the dining area, but I didn't take advantage of that. I tipped up front when I paid and said I would be eating inside. After about a 10 minute wait, I heard someone yell to me from the window "Come get your order." I was given a paper plate, plastic fork and spoon, 2 napkins, a fortune cookie, a paper bag, a plastic container of shrimp curry wrapped in plastic wrap, a baggie of fried wontons, a plastic container of wonton soup wrapped in plastic wrap, 4 soy sauce packets, and a paper container of white rice. I unwrapped my meal at the table. I don't use soy sauce. It changes the flavor for me. I will use it while I'm cooking beef, but other than that I don't use it. Why is this significant? The food was bland. It was good. It just desperately needed seasoning. I sat and read Yelp reviews while I ate. I read that they don't use MSG in their food. That's super nice for people with allergies. They still needed a little bit of something to bring out the natural flavors. Salt would have worked great. Maybe that's not a thing? It definitely needed something though. I liked the wonton soup better than the curry shrimp. I asked for chopsticks and proceeded to pull all of the green peppers out of my container of curry shrimp. It filled my plate and took my huge curry portion down to something I could easily eat. I could have told them no peppers, but I love the essence they impart. I just don't enjoy eating them directly. I finished my onions and shrimp in a very dark yet mild curry. It was good. I wouldn't order it again. It came out extremely hot and my shrimp continued to cook in the sauce. I saw them get smaller and smaller in real time. The wonton soup was minimal carrots, some pea pods, onion, bok choy, and mostly wontons. I dumped in my baggie of fried wontons. This was good. I feel like it gave the soup more flavor. I normally will drink the broth. It didn't have a lot of flavor, so I just focused on the solid offerings. It was good. Would I get it again? I think so. It just didn't have the vibrant broccoli I'm used to. That's ok. I'm adjusting expectations and I'm clear on the fact that I'm spoiled. I finished and packed everything back into my paper bag. I asked the lady at the window if she wanted me to use the small trash can in the dining area. She told me to give my bag of trash to her. I had a couple bites of rice, but that's not really what I was interested in. She asked me if I wanted to take it home. I passed. Would I come back? Not for dine in. That was not a great experience. Time will tell.

Ordered Chinese for dinner because I was craving some orange chicken! I placed the order online and…read moreit was ready a few minutes before the estimated time--yay! (10 min as opposed to 15 min) The parking lot is small and sort of easy to miss as a note. It is also very small inside too but it looks like most people just order take out, as I did. I ordered the orange chicken dinner with chicken fried rice that comes with an eggroll (I did the chicken egg roll) and a vegetable spring roll (comes in 2). The orange chicken was good but I've definitely had better orange chicken from other competitors. I can't place my finger on it but this orange chicken sauce was a little more tangy and sweet than what I'm normally used too--was still good though. No complaints with the egg roll, and I really enjoyed the vegetable spring roll as it was very crispy. All in all I would go back to try other choices on the menu but I don't think I'll order the orange chicken again anytime soon.
