    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.

    I have not been to this Restaurant since it was called the Sunset a few years ago…read more I finally found very tasty "Chicken Croquettes" here. Great taste, texture, size, and price. Highly Recommend...

    GREAT experience; having tried this place for the 1st time today (a Wednesday, late morning);…read moreExceptionally, friendly and attentive staff. I am in a wheelchair and the staff must have seen us coming as ChrisAnn (unsure of spelling) greeted us and assisted us (husband and I) with the doors (which are not automatic) and, as we entered, stated that she already set us up at the first table, which I found to be above and beyond the typical service of any establishment. The menus were already at the table and a chair removed, to make space for my wheelchair. Both of us ordered the steak tips and eggs, which we both enjoyed, cooked exactly as ordered, and as tasty as one can expect. Husband had his with hash browns (?) [pan-fried potato chunks] & toast; mine with grilled English muffin and a side of baked beans. What I really like was the plating, such that none of the food items ran together, that is, the beans were in a small dish separate from the eggs and English and the steak was on a separate small plate, making it easier to cut (without bumping up against other foods). When our son was a young child, we referred to this as "no-touch-atarian" as he really disliked his foods touching one another. Now, some 30+ years later, I have to agree that some food items are just best as stand-alone items. I would have given a full 5 star rating except that I tend to be slightly more critical with my assessments as they relate to accessibility. The parking lot could use a repainting as the lines and handicapped parking symbols were barely visible. They have a ramp to the entrance but, without automatic doors, it can cause difficulties at the top as there is no level area at the top to allow one to stop and prevent the chair from rolling backwards to allow one to open the door. I have a care giver that gets me in and out, so it is not a huge barrier for me personally but I can see it being difficult for more independent wheelchair users. Access to the restroom is a bit awkward but not impossible And the staff helped with that as well.

But today's experience was sub par to what we are used to. I didn't leave the establishment because I was with others who wanted to enjoy the food. The first issue was we couldn't seat where we wanted, it had to be where the waitress or manager decided we were to seat. Not one client in the restaurant. Then she brought the bill before we requested no one was waiting to be seated, then refused to split the bill when previous times with a different server was not a problem. We split the bill to only 2 because thats all she could do, me paying for 4 people she denies my tip amount and says if I don't tip a 18% , theywill charge me $80 extra for a party of 6, again we were only 4 people. I am very disappointed with my service and treatment, unfortunately I don't know the server name but she is one that speaks more English. Will I go back and be bullied into tipping what they want? Probably no.
