Neat picture.
Doug M.

I have been here a few times, always to go orders though. Nihao and Chen's are my go to for local Chinese food, and usually I go for the chicken lo mein, kind of a creature of habit that way. Although they do have some special in house dishes that may sounds odd, like jelly fish head plate. However the picture of the dish looked kinda tasty, not sure I would order it, but I have thought about it. The restaurant is very clean and well maintained as the pictures show. The kitchen is open and to the left side of the dining area, and that also looks to be kept up well. If you are looking for a spot for decent Chinese, this is the spot.

My friend and I were trying to find a neutral location to have lunch. Quick search on Yelp and NIHAO emerged as a forerunner. There are a lot is positive reviews. Neither of us had been there before, so it was the place to go. Located in a strip mall, the GPS tried to have me make a u-turn to the other side of the street. There is plenty parking. The inside is split into two areas, pickup and dining room. Pickup was pretty busy with quite a few people getting it to go. We sat to chat, so off to the dining room. Little older interior. Bench and chair seating. The bench's were a little squeaky for me but are fine. I always have the hot and sour soup as my gauge of a Chinese restaurant. No two are alike. This was a more traditional heavy dark color with plenty of veggies. Spices were pleasant and soup was nice. I would have to say, not in my top 10 but a nice soup. We both went with the veggie delight. Nice crisp veggies and plenty of them. The sauce was light so not to take away from the taste. There was also a good variety, mushrooms, broccoli,shoots, good stuff. It was followed by an almond cookie. Nice and light and good flavor. Bill came with the traditional fortune cookie. Over all the it was a very pleasant lunch with nice food.

General tsaos

Solid Chinese spot if you're in the falls area. I came and picked it up for my office for lunch, they had some awesome lunch specials that were almost half price! I got the general tsaos with fried rice and an egg roll and it was super yummy. My fave was the crab Rangoon's though! They were really good! The food was ready when I arrived, and the service was lovely. Will be returning!

Colorful!

10/24/14 @ 2:30pm (dinner time) I honestly recommend this place! They have many lunch selections to choose from and their entrees are always made hot and fresh and quick as well! Their egg fooyoung just melts in my mouth & egg drop soup was just so soothing and delicious! It's in a little strip area and you'll probably miss it if you don't pay attention but their sign is pretty bright and red for you to catch it. Their Hunan chicken dinner was great (a little bit spicy for me but I was ok with it). Their smoothie was also made fresh. Overall it was a good experience for my niece and I. Take a visit when you are around the area you won't be disappointed.

I like their beef, fish and intestine dishes! Strongly recommended Xiao Chao beef and Spicy Intestines!

Slow service and food was just ok. They have a different Chinese specific food menu, but felt food was oily and fried hard.

Chinatown Kitchen - Shrimp egg roll

Nine years ago I had a rough experience with Chinatown Kitchen that made me not want to stop ever…read moreagain. A recent lack of other options, however, forced me to give them a second chance. I ordered a pint of pork fried rice with no onion, one shrimp egg roll, and one pork egg roll. The filling in the pork egg roll slightly reminded me of what you'd find in an egg roll from a grocery store freezer, but it wasn't mushy compared to the grocery store kind. I've had better pork egg rolls, but I've also had worse. The shrimp egg roll was surprisingly good. Slightly larger than the pork egg roll, there was a definite difference in terms of quality of the filling and it had notable pieces of shrimp. I don't know if it was cinnamon I was tasting, but there was a hint of something like cinnamon in it, which I've had before in an egg roll elsewhere and makes it stand out from the pack. I would get the shrimp egg roll again. I found it funny when I took the pork fried rice out of the bag that it said "no veg" on the box, which meant onion was the only vegetable in it to begin with. As I quickly determined, if you say no onion all you're getting is fried rice and, in this case, pork. Thankfully, there was way more pork than I was expecting and it was good quality pieces. It would have been nice to have something like carrots or peas or egg in the fried rice as well just to give it another texture without the onion, but I'd still get it again even as such.

I ordered Beef with peppers. The beef was very tasty but there was way too much onion. I ate some…read morebut I still had a large pile of onion when I was finished. They are really not set up for eat in service. 5 small tables. Canned soda which was room temperature and no ice. The egg roll was very good and not overloaded with cabbage. You walk up to order at the checkout and our food was brought to the table by a young boy. This place obviously caters to their carry out business.

This may be the meanest review I'll ever write. Stop reading now if that will bother you. Was…read moretold once that if I can't say ANYTHING nice to say nothing at all...so here's the nice part. The place was clean and the staff was friendly, especially the cashier...of course knowing what they were dishing out her friendliness might have been the fake kind, like you might expect from a hospice nurse. We did not do the 'hot pot', just the buffet. Perhaps that accounts for other reviews giving more than one star. The first warning sign was all the chafing dishes at the buffet, except for the deep fried items, were nearly empty...with just a mouthful more than a single scoop in each. Of the nine items making it to my first and only plate...three were spitbacks and five were one-bite-and-dones...only the egg roll, which was almost certainly the boxed sysco frozen variety, got finished. They missed on most every basic expectation (even one already lowered for buffets). Tepid, not hot. Greasy. Obviously reheated. Overcooked. Oversalted. Change your frying oil. Every item had at least two of these fatal flaws. Every single one. My dining companion asked rhetorically, "how can you f@$k up a crab rangoon"? Well....see above. This was A PROFOUNDLY bad PTSD-inducing experience. And not cheap either. Cost cutting at the expense of the patron at every opportunity. In conclusion, it WILL make a turd, if you can keep it down. (It's nearly a turd already). A REALLY mean person might suggest that this buffet was so awful it could make a person change their opinion about American immigration policies. Act of war bad... I'm not THAT mean, but if after all my negative comments you still feel compelled to try this place, at least call ahead and ask which day they cook items fresh. Hint, it isn't on Wednesdays... The Mayor of Germantown should get a call. That bad.

The 3.5 star theory is proven true…read more Let me explain. When you're dealing with Asian restaurants-- be it buffet or otherwise, you ALWAYS go for the 3.5 star rated ones. Why? It's because you know the food's going to be good. You don't go there for service. You don't go there for a wine and dine 5-star experience. You go there for all you can eat food. That's the primary goal. If I rated this based on the 3.5 star theory scale, it would be a 5 star. And guess what I'm gonna do next time I go? I'm going to post a 3 star review so mine averages to 3.5 stars. I literally went to this place purely because it was 3.4 star rated when I checked. This was my first experience. Why is 4-star too high? Because it usually means it's fancier, has higher prices, better service... REMEMBER -- if a buffet is 4 or 5 star rated... it's going to have 4 or 5 star pricing!! That's why you go for the 3.5 star. Not 3, that's too low. Chances of food poisoning start getting out of the comfort zone. When I went here, the staff didn't really bother being nice or smiling. They weren't rude, just not really accommodating. You know what I thought about that? One word. "Perfect." Because I knew it meant the food was about to be good as hell, especially for all you can eat. They only had styrofoam cups and plates, as well as plastic silverware. Yet again, I thought "perfect." Because unlike some other reviews, I remind myself I'm literally in a strip mall Asian buffet in Wisconsin. I'm not at a Michelin star restaurant. I am here to stuff myself all you can eat. And you know what? The food was delicious. Even better, this restaurant does not put butter in their rice or noodles. Typically, Asian buffets will put a LOT of butter in the fried rice and/or noodles because it makes you fuller even faster. This restaurant does not do that. They don't cheat their way to having you eat less. The food is what you come here for. Not amazing service. Not presentation. Not to be wined and dined. You come here to stuff yourself. This is why the 3.5 star theory is the way to go ladies and gentlemen. And, of course, with 3.5 star rating, I got 3-star pricing. $30 for my wife and I to eat here. No food poisoning. No out of budget dinner date. If you don't believe the 3.5 star theory, I challenge you to try it. Compare the 3-stars with the 4-stars next time you go out. I promise you the 4-stars are on the pricier end. Sure it's "nicer" in theory but the 3-stars carry too much risk. With 3.5 you get the pricing of a 3 without the risk. Sure the service isn't the 4-star level but again, you're not going here for service! You're going here to have all you can eat and pig out!

Excellent lunch stop with my son. The lunch buffet is about $12 per person. We were greeted and…read moreseated within seconds of walking in. Drinks arrived quickly while we filled our plates.
