Meh. We've been looking for a good Chinese take-out place near our new home since moving back to PA last year. We tried Oriental Express today after getting a coupon in the McCandless local newsletter. They were very nice on the phone when I ordered, and the food was ready and well packaged when promised, but it was very bland and unimpressive. My kung pao chicken was really just chicken and veg in a boring generic brown sauce with peanuts, and the fried rice included with the lunch special was flavorless. The egg drop soup was okay, but similarly plain. I suppose this place is fine to cover a craving for basic 1980's Americanized Asian fare, but there are better options in the area. read more

I went in on a whim to order take out and I'm so glad I did! I ordered the Chicken Lettuce Wraps and a small roasted pork fried rice, both were excellent! They took my order really quickly and also delivered my bag steaming fresh. They had already packed it with utensils and sauces. The place is small but it does have a few tables if you want to eat there. I got back to my hotel and opened everything up, the aroma was so enticing! I dug in as quickly as I could! Great portion sizes and the flavor and freshness was off the charts. Highly recommend. If I'm ever in the area again, it's a must have! read more

The best Chinese food in the north hills (at least to me!) A regular spot for sure. Quality for the price is unbeatable! We had the hot and sour soup, chicken egg roll, crab Rangoon, cashew chicken and general Tso's. Everything came out hot and fresh for us as we dined in! Small dining room, as this restaurant is mostly pickup and delivery but very kind and efficient staff and service. read more

I get takeout regularly. It is usually quite good. I especially like the shredded pork soup. However, in recent months we have had a bad experience with their sesame chicken--overcooked and far too much breading. read more

HOLY GOOD TAKEOUT! Probably the best dumplings I have ever had in my life. The food was so quick, and still steaming when I got it home 15 minutes later. The girl on the phone was super nice and got every for my order. Will def be back! Happy Eating! read more

Very good takeout/delivery! We've been looking for good Chinese in the area since moving from NYC about 5 years ago and we have finally found it. Everything we have tried has been delicious and we love that they deliver to us. read more

That's amazing food ever took from a restaurant. Fast and friendly service. Sunday evening around 9:00 9:30 they are still serving. Thanks for an amazing dinner. Highly recommended 5 star read more

Oriental Express - Sea food soup and Lamb meal with fry rice - Chinese Near Me - Wexford, Pennsylvania

We ordered a few items, none were very good. Fried rice had zero flavor, lo mein bland, generals chix was ok, wonton soup not good. I've had better meals at Panda Express. Surprised this place is reviewed so highly, guess Pittsburgh just isnt the place for chinese. read more

Best Chinese food I've ever had. The house special anything is amazing. Their ingredients are super fresh and local and they've been in business for over 20 years, so they must be doing something right! Don't miss out on some amazing Chinese take-out. The lunch specials are perfect. Plus the staff is super friendly and helpful. They are grade A. They also offer cheap delivery in the Wexford area. $2 per order. I've gotten their food so often it's become a staple in my home! read more

My husband and I have ordered Chinese from here on a few different occasions. It is very close to my work so it is a convenient stop to get takeout on my way home. The first time I ordered Kung Pao Chicken. What impressed me about the dish was that it was loaded with a variety of vegetables and real slices of tender chicken! It was a very large entree, despite being a little pricy but leftovers always seem to make it a worthwhile purchase. My one complaint was that the sauce had very little flavor - it tasted one note to me. My most recent order was Mongolian Chicken - I allowed my husband to choose and this was decided based on the employees recommendation when my husband called to order. Again, a nice amount of chicken and vegetables that were crisp and cooked well but the sauce still was not as flavorful as I had hoped. It was a step up from the first dish but I could use more flavor! This place will continue to have our support due to location, friendliness of employees, and freshness of dishes. read more

Oriental Express - Mongolian Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Wexford, Pennsylvania

I've never had a bad experience with Oriental Express! The food and service have been great every time I've gone. They also have GREAT yum yum sauce read more

Wow, I was looking for a new place to try and so glad I did. You can taste each ingredient and how it blends with the others. Everything was so good. Crab Rangoon is a must try. The egg rolls so fat and fresh. Garlic beef was so good. Hot and sour soup tasted like it was made to order. My only complaint is that I didn't by more for tomorrow. People were so friendly and cooked everything so fast. I'll be back!!! read more

Good quality Chinese food. Gracious cashier and timely food delivery. They've never disappointed.

The best hands down Asian takeout in the North Hills. No matter what you order, it's fresh and made in a timely matter. Have been eating here over a decade. Great service and employees and GIANT EGGROLLS! My 2 favorites dishes are the Orange Beef and the Amazing Chicken. read more

I've come here for years. Best takeout Chinese food restaurant in the North Hills of Pittsburgh. Can't believe they only had 4 stars on yelp. Try the Amazing Chicken (better than General Tso's but very similar). If you want to be healthy, they have the option to order steamed brown rice, and the steamed veggies are always fresh. I've eaten here literally dozens and dozens of times...my favorite restaurant in Wexford. Food is never soggy/greasy. Always tastes fresh/homemade. It feels upscale for takeout. Reasonable prices (especially lunch specials). read more

I was very pleased with the food that I ordered today at Oriental Express, This was a stop-by on the way home from the airport. I would now definitely stop by again AND order from them for home delivery. My "lunch menu" meal covered me for both late lunch and dinner tonight. A pleasant surprise for quick service and good Chinese food in Wexford just off of I 79. read more

I stopped by here on a Monday afternoon for takeout. By chance, my normal Chinese restaurant I get food from was closed and so I was forced to branch out to try something different. The lunch specials here were a little more pricey, about $1.50 more, but the food quality was worth it and the lunch specials were still fairly cheap. I ended up ordering the classic General Tso Chicken with hot and sour soup. The hot and sour soup was very good and one of the better ones I've had. It probably could have been a little spicier. The chicken was great and seemed to be of higher quality than what I usually get. The General Tso sauce used was much better than what I was used to and found myself mixing it with the rice. Overall very good flavor! I will be back here to try this place again and will venture out to try something else on the menu. read more

We ordered from there tonight. That was in the top three worst Chinese I've ever had. Spare ribs were old and greasy (I'd guess they were cooked yesterday). Egg rolls were dripping grease. Spring rolls were under cooked. Chicken in moo goo gai pan was dry and crumbly. Mu shu was greasy, vegegables were thick not shredded, and it tasted terrible. I think the funniest part was that the chow mein didn't have any noodles so I thought it was chop suey. I called them to tell them they sent me the wrong thing. They told me that their chow mein doesn't have noodles. Mein literally means noodle in Chinese. And it was lousy. The entire order was basically inedible. read more

Fast, fresh, and delicious. I asked for 10/10 on the spice factor and they delivered.

Excellent food! The rice noodles are tasty and the egg rolls are gigantic. Clean environment, friendly/professional staff, and low prices--What else could you ask for? read more

Oriental Express - the inside of a restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Wexford, Pennsylvania

This is one of my favorite Asian restaurants in the area. Although they have seating here, it's more of a takeout or delivery type of restaurant. I usually get takeout for dinner. The food is always hot and fresh. I usually order beef with broccoli and I love that they add bamboo shoots to the dish. I always, no matter what, order the fried shrimp appetizer. It's basically a (large) shrimp wrapped in a single wonton wrapper and deep fried. I've never seen this anywhere else. I always dip them in the brown sauce that I get with my beef with broccoli dish. Yum! I've also ordered the crab Rangoon appetizer before and they are also really good here. If you order several dinners it can get a little pricey, I recommend ordering the lunch or small size (it's still a lot of food) and you can save some money. Also, if you join their rewards club you receive coupons in the mail. Also, I should note that I have ordered food for takeout numerous times and my orders have always been 100% accurate. Nothing more frustrating than getting home and your order has missing or wrong items. So far, for the last 10+ years of ordering food here I have been completely satisfied. read more

10/10 my favorite chinese food. i order atleast once a week. the international chicken is amazing. i get 5 spicy. The hot and sour soup, general tsos, orange chicken. everything is amazing. 10/10 place. Love it ! read more

Ordered this Sunday for takeout, it was great I've read some reviews on here that were not very complementary but I must say the last couple times I've ordered from here it has been very good everything is packaged well and everything is very tasty. The staff were very courteous and pleasant and the restaurant although small was very clean. Nice to have a good place in Wexford for Chinese food. read more

Oriental express is my favorite place to order out! The broccoli and brown sauce is delicious as well as the egg rolls with duck sauce, I highly recommend. The staff is so nice and welcoming and I am always satisfied with my food! Amazing! read more

Solid three if not more. Sesame chicken is good. Love the crab rangoons. Not the best I have had but definitely solid! :) easy to get to and fast and friendly service. read more

I've ordered twice from here and won't do it again because the food is just bad. My preferred delivery place declined hard in the past year so I was hoping to find a new go to place but the food I've gotten is awful. Note that both times were delivery so maybe they do a better job if they have to see you? The good The packing for delivery was fantastic and really thoughtful. Sauce containers were taped down in case that flimsy lid came off, the food was hot(ish) when it arrived, and the delivery people courteous. The bad The food. My first order was a chicken and cashew dish to compare to the one by China House which I enjoy but they don't deliver. I tossed about 80% of it. It was that bad. My second order was fried dumplings and an egg roll and lomein, all based on other reviews that said they were great. I bit the egg roll and oil literally poured out onto the plate, there was a puddle. That got tossed. There are 6 dumplings, 2 are burned, actually black on the bottom. Two are mushy and doughy. I didn't bother with the remaining ones). I haven't bothered to open the lo mein yet. Maybe they have different cooks on different days and that's why some people love it? Maybe being there in person is a totally different experience? But delivery, skip it. read more

Excellent food, clean restaurant, and great ownership. I've been ordering here for years and it's hard to find any better takeout in the Pittsburgh area. The chicken eggrolls, crab rangoon and amazing chicken are my favorites! read more

No one beats Andy's magic in the kitchen. Been going here nearly weekly since they opened. Never ever been disappointed. A+++

The best Chinese food - you can customize anything on the menu, clean environment, friendly staff, convenient location, and reasonably priced. This is our go-to place for take out every time. read more

A lack of reviews of Lin's Oriental Express is troubling, I sincerely hope this place receives the accreditation that it truly deserves. This is the best Asian budget cuisine I have eaten in my entire life. The prices here are extraordinarily reasonable for the quality they deliver. Anytime that I am not eating at this restaurant I am exersizing the willpower to not go for another day. Delicious general tso's sauce, hand breaded chicken, fresh vegetables and phenomenal daily made eggrolls. Quick, courteous service in a clean establishment that is situated in a convenient location with ample parking. I would drive 25 minutes to get to this place. Quality and consistency should be rewarded and they absolutely excel in these areas. read more

Worst general so chicken ever. Didn't even save the leftovers! Over cooked to shoe leather! Bad enough we ordered pickup and it wasn't in the order. Had to hold dinner and go back to get it. Tastes like they found it and nuked it. Expensive mistake. Ginger chicken and greenbeans was way too garlicky. International chicken was ok but not worth the price. We need more chinese options in Franklin Park. read more

Great food, fast delivery, friendly service. Their Hot & Sour Soup has the best balance between the hot and the sour of any I've ever tasted. read more

Two stars for the service (which was friendly and inviting), but that's about all they have going for them. While I'm thankful they guarded me against getting a food born illness by cooking the chicken absolutely to DEATH. Chicken jerky does not go well in Chinese food. The price is a bit high for the quality of food. That being said. You do get a lot. But if you're not happy with the food in the first place, you won't bother with the left overs so quantity doesn't make anyone feel better about the price you pay. I did enjoy the chicken egg roll, would have been better had there actually been chicken in it. Fried rice was very bland. Well, you live and you learn! ‍ read more

I wanted to revisit my previous post. The service has improved greatly. I order lunch delivered several times a month and very pleased with the turn around. Not great Chinese, but good. read more

Underwhelmed. Pork lo mein was too syrupy and bland. Not sure if that's par for the course for the Chinese food around Pittsburgh, but regardless, I didn't think it warrants the 4 1/2 stars this place currently has. read more

One of the cleanest and friendliest restaurants I have been to. The food is amazing (you must try amazing chicken and ginger shrimp) and they modify all of my orders specifically how I like them. They even let me pick and choose whatever veggies and sauces I want. Definitely the best take out in the north hills. read more

My family LOVES this chinese food. We stop in every week and the food is always consistent and tasty! I'm not sure about the review that said the Lo Mein noodles are "bland"...we get shrimp Lo Mein every week and it is flavorful, saucy, & delicious! The amazing chicken is also a must-have. In addition to the consistently good food and reasonable prices, the service is speedy and wonderful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you're ever in the wexford area! read more

Absolutely the best Chinese in the area. It's not your average Chinese carry-out. You can tell they use better ingredients and recipes. The staff is extremely nice. Affordable and delicious. I use this place as a comparison for any other Chinese food I eat around the Pittsburgh. I eat lunch here about once a week for lunch. The lunch specials run about $8-9 and I'm stuffed. I would definitely recommend this joint to anyone in the Wexford area. Enjoy! read more

Better than average Chinese take out. Very good service, quick prep time, large portions, flavorful and appropriately seasoned menu options! Convenient to the North Hills area, Cranberry TWP., and other locations near 910/79. Highly recommend. read more

The best General Tso's chicken around. We also enjoy the beef with green beans. The best part is the option to have either white rice, or brown rice (for a $1 more). Everything we have tried has had good flavor and is not greasy. read more
