a takeout container of fried food
Bri V.

Average Chinese food worth very large portions. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken as a combo. It came with soup and an egg roll. Beware the egg roll has shrimp in it, which I did not appreciate and couldn't eat it. The soup was very good. The chicken was good, but I wish they didn't put the pineapple on top since it made the pets it was touching soggy. The fried rice was good. Overall I would try it again if I was in the area but would try a different dish.

Chicken Noodle Soup
Brian S.

Got carry out from this restaurant during the pandemic. I ordered the sesame chicken and Almond Boneless chicken combinations. Both were suppose to get the soup of the day with the combos but one came chicken noodle and the other wonton. I've never heard of an Asian restaurant serving chicken noodle soup. The wonton was really good and the chicken noodle was so so. The Sesame chicken breading was really soft and not crispy but had a bbq taste. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't get it again. The Almond Boneless chicken had a really good flavor. I would definitely get it again. This Chinese restaurant has some really good meals (Almond Boneless Chicken) and some others (Sesame Chicken) that are so so. I would try it again but get something different than Sesame Chicken next time.

Sesame chicken

This is the second time I've ordered from this restaurant and my order has been messed up. I ordered sesame chicken with SHRIMP fried rice. I received some sesame chicken that taste like it's been sitting out all day and CHICKEN fried rice with my meal. On tops of it being the wrong fried rice, it tastes and looks old too.

Quality ingredients and fresh food. Good price. I wasn't a fan of the orange sweet and sour sauce but. I can't complain about the quality.

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.

Everything always tastes fresh, like it was actually cooked with care and not rushed out the door. It is a little pricier than some other spots, and the portions are smaller, but honestly? I get why. This is quality over quantity in the best way. You still finish feeling happily full, just not weighed down or regretting your life choices lol. We've only ever ordered takeout (usually DoorDash), so I can't speak much to service or ambiance, but I can say our order has never been wrong. If you want solid, dependable, really tasty Chinese food that feels a step above the rest, Chengs does not miss. We keep ordering for a reason.

Please start being better about take out orders and ensuring everything is there. We love your food and make the drive. You are not close to us. We shouldn't be disappointed again by our food not being doubled checked by whoever bagged it. Also with a huge thing of Pad Thai there should be more than one small piece of lime. It doesn't squeeze on all of it. We are starting to think we should go elsewhere because of the order errors. When we have made complaints before they were rude and never apologize either. So I'm not even bothering to call this time.

I'm still in the "wow, I can't believe it, we've found our restaurant for Cashew Chicken, wow, that…read morewas amaaaaaazing!" phase. That was mindblowingly delicious Cashew Chicken, and the eggroll that came with it, and the chicken fried rice, were right up there in amazingness. I can't find my words, in this satiated state of great food coma. The Egg roll was crispy, and the veggies inside were perfect, not strings that got in the teeth, but lightly cooked and seasoned beansprouts. The chicken fried rice had nice tender chunks of chicken, a beautiful dark soy sauce, and was perfect texture, and delish for what it wasn't as much as for what it is: It was lightly flavored and not too salty, not greasy, not clumped - each grain stood out. We could tell the star of the show was the Cashew Chicken as soon as we opened the lid. There it was: perfectly cooked broccoli, chicken, water chestnuts, mushrooms, and shaved carrot pieces in an addictive brown sauce that filled the kitchen with an irresistable aroma, just a perfect sauce really, were topped by well-browned cashews, and a lot of them. I haven't had Cashew Chicken this good since moving from California decades ago. I'll be back - maybe tomorrow. There are so many other dishes on the menu we want to order, but it will have to be "an order of cashew chicken AND....", won't it?

I got home and opened the food and it was filled with vegetables I was allergic to. I called and spoke with the person I ordered from they confirmed that it should've been made with only bok choy and was told to come back and get the correct food. I asked on this phone call if I would need to bring the food that was made incorrectly back they assured me I didn't. Then less than 10 minutes later called me back and said that the kitchen didn't think they made a mistake and to bring back the food to prove they were wrong. I came back with the receipt and incorrectly made item and inquired as to why they switched up in less than 10 minutes no response was given. Then a woman who I believe to be an owner opened up the food and started sifting through it with a spoon telling me what the vegetables were. Once I again reminded them that, that still isn't what I ordered she finally remade the food and made me wait again as they didn't have the correctly made meal ready as they promised me on both phone calls. This incident also violates Rule 3-306.14 of the Michigan Food Safety Code as well. I have been a loyal customer of Shang-ri La's Midtown and West Bloomfield location even during COVID and to be treated this way was pretty devastating.
