    Good egg foo young, classic brown gravy. Also had combination Cantonese chow mein with fried noodles, nice combo.

    I am a Chinese connoisseur and trust me this isn't it. It wasn't terrible but I wouldn't eat it again. Sweet and sour was mostly breading... Orange chicken didn't have much flavor. Rice was below average ... Egg rolls were pretty good and the crab ragoons were meh.

    I just can't say never again enough times. This place is dirty. Unorganized and rude. They tell me the food would be ready in half an hour. I wind up waiting another thirty minutes when I get there to pick my food up. The woman behind the counter is short with people. The food is nothing special and I think someone would have to pay me to eat here again. The egg rolls were dripping with grease. Took one bite and threw it away. Waste of money. The fried rice has a strange smokey and old grease flavor. Yuck!!! I thought I would try this spot because it was close to my home. Next time I will drive to Iowa if I have to before I eat here. Please don't let me get hepatitis A, B, and C eating here. I am feeling sick to my stomach and have only taken a few bites. At least this food will help me start my diet tomorrow.

    Szechwan vegetables with fried rice. Lunch special - A foam takeout box contains fried rice with a spring roll on top and stir-fried vegetables with sauce.

    Got the Curry Beef yesterday for under $8.00. It was spicy and delicious. A lot for the price.

    Awful, horrific, never again. Bottom of barrel quality for as cheap as you can fathom. Unsure of how it got this highly reviewed.

    China Cook - Hot & Sour Soup

    Before you read my tiny, short novel here, I will preface that this review is just for a soup :)…read more My husband and I have been on a hot and sour soup kick lately--I'm talking three weeks straight of craving it. It started with me, but now he's fully on board, and we're officially on the hunt for "the best hot and sour soup" in the suburbs. I might be a bit of an Asian soup snob, but when I go to an Asian restaurant, I can judge a lot about the authenticity of the cuisine based on their soups. Soups can be one of the simplest dishes to make, but they're also easy to overlook. To me, if a place puts care into their soups, they'll likely put that same care into their entrées. With Asian soups especially, the tiniest tweaks make a big difference in flavor. If you love Tom Yum or pho, you know exactly what I mean--it's all about the flavor profile. And the same goes for a good old hot and sour soup... and oh my--I think I found the one tonight. I could have easily finished the entire quart in one sitting (I showed some restraint... barely). My husband gave it a thumbs up, and my oldest loved the kick and went back for seconds. Safe to say--we'll be back for more on our next takeout night. Definitely worth the $7.73 (tax included). Where it hit all the right notes: * Fresh bamboo shoots, mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms (my favorite), eggs, carrots, and tofu * Perfect consistency (not too thick, not too watery) * Balanced flavor (not overly sour or flat) * Real chili peppers for heat (not just a heavy hand of black pepper) My favorite detail: The vegetables were actually cut into bite-sized pieces --not giant chunks--and everything was properly cooked and tender. I've been to places where the carrots are so crunchy, it feels like they came straight out of the ground! We've ordered takeout from here several times and haven't had a bad experience yet. I just haven't been intentional about remembering what I ordered--until now. This soup officially has me paying attention, and I'll definitely be back to try more of their entrées (and take notes this time!). I managed to get a picture of the remaining 30% of my soup where I had to tilt the carton just to get the photo. It was all eaten too fast before I could take a picture. Pickup was smooth and easy. I was able to pay with a credit card even for a small order (under $10). They also have a wall of gift items for sale, which looked interesting. There are a few tables and chairs if you want to sit while you wait (or maybe even eat there) but it definitely feels more like a takeout-focused spot. Based on the neon signage outside, it looks like they offer delivery as well. Tip: With small businesses like this one, they aren't married to their hours. When I called on a Wednesday to ask about their closing time, they told me it was 8:45 PM. However, when I arrived, the sign on the door listed their closing time as 9:00 PM. We picked up well ahead, but I've also seen Google reviews mentioning that they may close early, so just keep that in mind--especially if you're placing an order or calling close to closing time.

    This is our go to Chinese restaurant for delivery. Food is always hot, tastes good and delivered…read morewithin a reasonable timeframe. Prices are fairly good. Like that they offer half/small size portions of many menu items.
