I didn't want to leave a poor review because I've dined here in the past (a long time ago) and…read morewhile it wasn't memorable, it wasn't bad. But this recent visit was such a disappointment I felt the need to warn others. The fried rice is heavy on onions, to a fault. Every bite contains semi-crunchy onions which is unpleasant. The beef chow fun is a sad, soggy mess sitting in a layer of oil. Chow fun should have green onions - there is zero green in this dish. The beef quality is also rather low grade and tough. The slightly redeemable dish was the moo shu chicken when compared to the other 2 dishes I ordered.

Extremely Disappointing -- Save Your Money…read more I honestly don't understand how Tea House gets rated as a top place. From the outside appearance and lack of upkeep to the service and, most importantly, the food, the entire experience was disappointing. The service was odd, the staff didn't seem very familiar with the menu, and there were several misses that made the experience even less enjoyable. The food itself was mediocre at best--and honestly, some of it was just bad. Then came the bill: over $75 plus tip for three people, with two lunch specials and three drinks. For what we received, the price was absolutely ridiculous. For me, this was a hard pass. The food wasn't worth the money, the service wasn't impressive, and the overall experience left a lot to be desired. Don't waste your time, and especially don't waste your money.

Grand Szechuan (大四川) is my favorite Chinese restaurant in the Twin Cities. My family and I have…read morebeen going here for great Chinese food for many years. The menu has a nice variety of dishes, including different types of noodles. One of my favorite dishes is the Minced Pork Sauce with Sliced Noodles.

Highly recommend checking out if you are looking for some delicious Chinese food!

There was a ton of noodles piled on top of my plate but only one or two onions or mushrooms. I would never go back there again and the service is not great either. I always wanted to try it, but I don't understand how they can stay in business when their food is so tasteless. My partner ordered barbecued beef and peapods, and he was not satisfied with the beef either. They need to up their game and get fresh meat!

I like the iPad for ordering and calling over the waiter as needed.

My most favorite was the Beijing roasted duck - I appreciated that it includes a vegetable soup using the duck bones. The flavorful broth was a nice accompaniment for the meal! Some duds for me includes soft noodles (lo mein), crab and pork soup dumplings (they don't taste handmade) and egg drop soup (don't like the sweet corn in it).

While Dinkytown has changed a LOT, Shuang Cheng hasn't, and that's a good thing! Also, my bro ordered the chicken with orange peel.

The only thing I didn't like was the sweetness of the sauce for the noodles. It was almost like eating noodles in sweet and sour sauce. I'd go back and get a savory or noodle soup entree instead.
