    The staple/paperclip we found in the Roast Pork Fried Rice

    There was a staple or part of a paperclip in the pork rice. Very disappointing seeing how we eat here frequently on weekends.

    a tray of food and a remote control

    Thought id try another chinese food restaurant. Food was ok but ive had better. One thing that makes me go hmmm was the firtune cookie. Was the stalest ive ever had. Makes ya wonder what other foods thet dont pay attention to.

    Pretty good Chinese takeout at reasonable prices. Located at the Canal St/Lowell St intersection, this "small hole" has a takeout counter and a few tables & chairs (for up to 20 people) for dining in. The TV on the counter shows Chinese programming. They offer Luncheon Specials (11:30AM-3:00PM), All Day Combination Platters, and the Appetizer Box (choice of one appetizer with pork fried rice & fries) for $4.29. I occasionally grab some takeout from here since it's on the way to the Taylor Falls Bridge crossing. The food here is hot and tasty. My favorites are the Pork Lo Mein, Shanghai Pan Fried Noodles, and the Crispy Shrimp with Walnuts. The place can get pretty busy with lots of call in/pickup and delivery orders, a high turnover scene. The parking lot is very tight and can be packed at times. I can get my food in about 15 minutes after placing the order. Overall, 3.5 stars. HOURS: Mon-Thurs (11AM-10PM), Fri-Sat (11AM-11PM), Sun (12PM-10PM)

    The food is always delicious, the service is quick, and the portions aren't skimpy at all. My favorite is the Beef Lo Mien but I've liked everything I've tried. Also, it's the only place I can find locally that has sweet and sour PORK, which I love! Everywhere has chicken and shrimp, but no pork. So Mint made me happy there :) The egg rolls are to die for. So delicious. I could keep going but it's better if you just give it a try yourself. Don't be fooled by the buildings outward appearance or the food-court reminiscent dine-in area. The food is beyond amazing.

    Food was very bland and overpriced. Wonton soup had no flavor. Broccoli was overcooked. At least food was hot.

    I was searching for a taco spot nearby and this place popped up. I wanted to try somewhere I hadn't…read morebeen before, so we decided to give it a shot. It was a Friday night and surprisingly pretty empty, which honestly I didn't mind at all because it made for a more relaxed experience. The ambiance was actually really nice for a casual night out. Since it wasn't busy, there wasn't a lot of noise, just light music playing in the background, and we could actually hear ourselves talk without yelling across the table. Ironically, even though I came looking for tacos, I didn't order any . We ended up getting the chicken quesadilla and the Enchiladas Lokas, and both dishes were delicious. Everything came out hot, flavorful, and satisfying. For drinks, we tried the house margarita and a tamarind margarita. I specifically asked about the tamarind because I really like that flavor and wanted it to come through more. While the margarita itself was good, the tamarind flavor kind of got lost along the way. One thing that definitely stood out was the service. Our server was attentive, helpful, and checked in on us throughout the night. Overall, it was a great experience and I'll definitely be back, maybe next time I'll finally order the tacos

    Stopped in for lunch with my daughter. Fairly busy for a late Saturday lunch…read more Got street tacos which were pretty good. Sweet little neighborhood Mexican restaurant.

    Royal Pizza & Seafood - A Promising New Spot with Room to Grow…read more I finally had the chance to try Royal Pizza & Seafood, the new establishment that recently took over the old Pizza Hut location. The renovations are well done, and the place has a clean, updated feel with ample seating and a nice bar featuring flatscreen TVs. However, the signage and advertising could use improvement -- you'd likely miss it unless you're local or, like me, drive by daily. My daughter and I stopped in around 1:30 PM. I ordered a spinach and feta calzone, and she got a chicken Caesar wrap. We shared an order of steak fries, which were a bit over-crisped, but all the food came out hot and fresh from the grill and oven. The calzone was delicious, and the wrap, while tasty, could've been wrapped better -- it fell apart after a couple of bites, but the staff was so accommodating -- they actually took it back and re-wrapped it for her in fresh Saran wrap, which we really appreciated. Service was friendly but slow. With only two employees -- one appearing to be the owner and the other the cook -- our food took about 40 minutes, despite no other customers being there. A third staff member arrived about halfway through our wait. We also had to go up to the counter ourselves to pay for the order, which had already been taken. When the food came out, they had forgotten the Caesar dressing and ketchup, but quickly corrected it when we asked. We didn't have time to finish our meals, so we asked for takeout boxes. While the food was solid and the space inviting, this is not a spot for a quick bite -- especially during lunch if you're in a rush. Overall, a nice addition to the area with potential, but better suited for a relaxed visit.

    I used to love this place and was a loyal customer for a long time. The food has always been solid,…read moreand I genuinely wanted to keep supporting them. But unfortunately, the last few times I've ordered, my order has been wrong-- receiving a BBQ chicken pizza not a buffalo chicken pizza, getting a calzone instead of a pizza, things like that. I let it slide the first couple of times because I get that mistakes happen. This time, though, I finally decided to speak up and let them know--and honestly, I was pretty disappointed with the response. All they offered was $5 off my next order, which felt like a brush-off more than a resolution, especially given the repeated issues. I'm not looking for freebies, just for my order to be right and for the service to reflect that they value their regular customers. I really hope they tighten things up, because I'd love to go back to recommending them the way I used to.
