    Outside of Pocono No.1 resturant

    We have always liked ordering there general tsoa chicken when ever we are in the area, we loved the spicy sauce they made. So I was in the area and order two combination meals, one with pork fried rice and one with white rice. They had a COVID-19 wall made, so that they can only slide food and payment through, which I though was great, until the lady came out to help me and I can see the cooks in the back, and no one is wearing masks or gloves that are preparing the food or helping customers. On top of that, the sauce for our food didn't taste like it use to, not sure if they changed ingredients or not.

    Excellent Chinese food in Tannersville! We had the General Tso's chicken and Szechuan beef - both delicious.

    Best Chinese in PA don't believe these people. Crunchy vegetables they're not soggy like China 3.

    I need to go back here and try some other items before totally deciding, but this was a pretty…read morerough stop. A few of my friends said this is their favorite Chinese takeout so I finally made it up to give it a shot. I got the shrimp with garlic sauce combo and an order of Szechuan wontons. The woman was friendly and spoke solid English. The establishment was downright greasy...but honestly what Chinese place isn't? The wontons themselves had very little filling in them. It was all crunch and no body. The sauce was also just ... not good. Tasted closer to American bbq sauce than it did any spicy Szechuan sauce I've ever had. Also zero spice to the sauce. There were also peas and carrots in the container. Like ... what? This was a huge letdown. I ate 2. The shrimp with garlic sauce had 4 shrimp in the container. The shrimp tasted great, and their garlic sauce was solid, but 4 shrimp. I should have gotten the chicken. I normally order chicken with broccoli and have them sub garlic sauce when I get Chinese takeout. I should have done that. There was also a plethora of vegetables in this that were just taking up the space the shrimp were missing from. Baby corn, water chestnuts, large chunks of mushroom/onion/pepper, snowpeas...you name it. The one highlight of the food here was the fried rice wasn't just generic yellowish rice in a container. This was actual fried rice, which is hard to come by in these parts. The egg roll was unremarkable. I'll go back and try other stuff at some point but for now - Five Star Chinese -Sucked.

    Weekends are dinner rates, but still worth it. I came twice in one week, once for weekday dinner…read moreand once for weekend lunch. The weekday dinner had lobsters and the weekend lunch had crayfish. We enjoyed all the food and the waitstaff was very attentive, they made quick rounds to collect plates and refill sodas. There is a lot of variety in the selections and they're all pretty tasty. Their sushi was good, we really it. The only thing I did not like was the wasabi, it looked neon green, the color of slimer from ghostbusters... it was looking too artificial. Their dessert/fruit table also has a wide selection and we had no issues whatsoever. The ice cream machine was kind of slow, I saw a lot of people had difficulty with the chocolate side of the machine. This is a great option to have out in the Poconos. We will alway return.

    It's a pretty typical Chinese buffet, and nothing really stood out as worth the higher price on…read moreSundays. It did take a while for us to get our soft drinks, but they were pretty crowded. There is a nice fountain in front for ambiance. Some of the food was mislabeled or had no signage. There was some sushi which was fine, but no hibachi option. It was nice to have fruit options with dessert. There was a variety of meats, noodles, and soups. There wasn't a ton of variety, but it'll do the trick. Neither of us felt great after, but I can't tell if it's the quantity or quantity. The prices are a little cheaper during the week and during lunch where there is one flat rate on Sunday, so if you're going on one of those days, it may feel like better bang for your buck.

    Very enjoyable evening. It's an interesting place, one side seems to be darker and more intimate…read morewhile the other side is brightly lit and banquet-hall like. We were met by the waitress very quickly and offered ice water, which was cold and refreshing. My wife had a Thai Iced Tea, which she enjoyed, and I stuck with the water. I ordered a bowl of Tom Yum soup to start and found it to be just a tad salty for my liking and I could not finish it. They took it off the bill and were very accommodating. For our entrees, we both had the Butter Chicken and Naan. It was very good! Not a thick/creamy as I have had at other establishments but VERY flavorful and the spice level was perfect. The naan was very good as well and perfectly accompanied the meal. We very much appreciated the attentive nature of the staff and will definitely return in the future!

But wow... the food made it all worth it. The chicken tikka masala was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The fried rice was full of taste and not greasy at all. And the naan? Soft, warm, and just the right amount of char. I was actually sad this spot is far from where I live -- if it were closer, I'd be a regular for sure. Great food, just be prepared to wait if it's busy!
