I love the popo platter. Yes sesame chicken and deep-fried shrimp a couple of spring rolls some for skewered beef slices. And it's supposed to come with crab puffs I always have them turn them into fried Wontons. Very tasty and filling. Nice people. read more

went with a group to the new Hong Kong Cafe in old red apple place. Please stay away!!!!!!! We watched as other tables left from crappy service. We did not even finish our plates or ask for boxes to-go. When your broccoli and beef taste like fish you know somethings are wrong I wish I got pictures of our food because we left a lot on the table but I will not be going back. read more

the food was terrible couldn't even cut through my chicken adult grandkids couldn't eat their food didn't get half of what we ordered didn't ask if we wanted more drinks 80.00 for what ? food you can't eat and it was my daughters birthday Thanks for ruining that guys highly don't recommend and will never go there again read more

The service was great. The young lady server is very personable and friendly. We went there for Valentines Day around 3:15 pm. We've enjoyed dining there for many years. BUT, this time was NOT the same: the table dirty (felt sticky), the soup was cold and so was the meal. We've never had that experience before; maybe it was just an off day. read more

Their food is run of the mill Chinese American. The staff was super-friendly and the atmosphere was familial. It is a good place to go with kids and their food is decent. I did like they had a yelp coupon discount of 15%! I had their general's chicken and liked it. read more

Oh my!! Yellow fried rice? Curried spring roll?! Newest owners have no idea how to cook good food. This was AWFUL!! Lemon was not lemony and it was off color, sweet and sour was orange and tasted funny. Done with this place. Bar must be keeping them open. read more

The waitress was very nice an quick but food was very disappointing we got the orange chicken an honey chicken. Orange chicken just looked off very sweet nit tangy at all an sauce was powdery, the honey chicken was completely candied rock hard like it had caramel on it you would pick it up with the fork an was caramelized strings coming off stuck to the plate and teeth:( wont be going back for a while unfortunately.. used to be such a good place read more

I was a loyal customer with the old owners. Food was always really good. I've been here a few times since the new ownership. The food is good, but not as good as it once was. The staff is very friendly. The real complaint i have now is their timing is off. It seems like they only cook one dish at a time. When i go here with my girlfriend, they always bring one of our orders out substantially earlier than the other. So we have to just sit there while one of our dishes gets cold, while waiting for the other to finally get their food. If they could bring out our food at the same time, it wouldn't be a bad place to eat. read more

New owners, new terrible food. The food before 10-1-2023 was really good. Then the new owners took over and clearly downgraded food quality. It's Just greasy and unpleasant. It gives you the green read more

This is a combo lounge/restaurant, and from the outside not really enticing, so I hadn't even tried them for years! However - Several times recently I've gotten dinner there and with few exceptions been very pleased! The restaurant is totally separated from the lounge, and while not teeming with ambience, is large and clean. Some items (sweet & sour chicken, for example?) are prepared a bit strangely, but overall this is some of the best Chinese I've found in Oregon. Good: Hot & sour soup, cashew chicken, sweet & sour pork, barbecued pork, etc. Very reasonably priced... Friendly and prompt service. One thing of note: They serve HUGE portions! Seriously! Enough for two ample meals... So - order a #8 combo with two plates and share! read more

We've been going to the red apple for years. Everything used to be good. Tried it again with the new owners, and some of it was ok, most was not. The crab puffs have fake crab meat, but mostly cheap tasting now. The egg rolls used to be the best part of the meal. I took one bite and spit it out. If you like curry, you'll love them... but who puts curry in an egg roll?!? The general tso isn't bad, but resembles more of an American chicken wing than what you'd expect. The pork fried rice was dry, but did its job as a filler. We probably won't be going back. read more

Upon getting this take out home I had immediate regret. The orange chicken was stuck together like glue. The kung pao chicken was slimy and the spring rolls were so greasy they had soaked the container. We ordered 3 different combo meals and the only thing that was edible was the chicken lo mein. Yuck, yuck, yuck is all I can say about this experience. Totally grossed out ! read more

For the area this is pretty decent American style Chinese food. Pork fried rice is good consistency.

I have eaten here for over 25 years and we ate there last night with the new owner the food was very mediocre at best we won't be back.

I ordered from doordash the food was okay none really to write home about I ordered sesame chicken they send me sweet and sour chicken doordash is always a pain to call and have it rectified I just didn't want to wait to have somebody drop off the correct sauce. read more

I've been ordering the General Tso's chicken for years. I recently ordered it again after the new owners took over, and it's terrible. I won't be eating here again. Hopefully changes are made. read more

Best Chinese food!!!! have been eating there since they opened! the owners are amazing people and they always have great employee!

Just another review about the new ownership food...terrible. My wife and I would go there for takeout regularly because it was so good. Now after the new ownership a few months ago we will never go back. Very unfortunate read more

Always fresh and plenty for your appetite, the house rice is very good. Service is always nice and quick.

Food was great, service was very good, ambiance was less than good because almost every booth had dirty dishes on them with an employee sitting on his phone for over half an hour. He was just the dishwasher though. We would come here again, definately! read more

We love Red Apple! It's affordable and delicious, not to mention quick service! We get their lunch specials often.

Best lo mien out there! However, everything that is fried tastes the same.

It was good. I don't have anything great to say , but nothing bad. Staff were friendly . Food wasn't drop your socks amazing , but better then the other one we have in town for sure lol Just wish they offered delivery. I would have given another star for that for sure . read more

It was good. I loved the general Taos. I'm used to different pork fried rice with more stuff in it. More pork and veggies. It tasted fine. We also had Mongolian beef. That was good. Needed a little more spice. Over all just average. read more

Drove up here for dinner last night and for our Red Apple fix. Egg Flower Soup is some of the best. Check out the specials. The Beef and Shrimp Lo Mein is the bomb! read more

My cousin and I ate there about a week ago. I had hot and sour soup. She had the special house soup. We shared an appetizer platter. I also had the iced Thai tea...everything was really good. I brought home enough appetizer for several more meals. I will go back. read more

It's a solid 2. The service is actually really good. The food is really bad. I mean I guess I did order the lunch special so that's on me. Hey it's stayton at least they have Chinese food right? read more

Food is very good every time we eat there I can wait till we go again to try something different. Very polite and courteous staff even when it's very busy best Chinese restaurant around that I've had. read more

Customer service was great and after understanding the dual bar and restaurant I can see it getting busy, but the food came out fast, I was greeted and the food was excellent in my opinion. The fried rice was one of the best as it didn't seem overly dry. Portions are generous and veggies fresh! The sauce in the special was just enough savory and not overpowering. I gave a four star because my service was great, food was delicious, and price affordable. The space was clean and roomy. I had an amazing experience. Get to know them and I'm sure you will change you mind if you've had a different experience. I will be back with my whole family. read more

Not the best food. Disappointing! And not the nicest staff from our one and most likely only time there. Never hurts to try it once.. Right

The Red Apple is definitely my top spot for Chinese food. Even though there are quite a few closer to where I live, I always travel the extra miles to get my fill here. The food is of great quality and the staff are always friendly. I will order the exact same things at other restaurants and not be as satisfied as I would be here. Their pork fried rice is the best I've ever eaten and their crab puffs are delectable. The chicken fried rice is moist and their many entrees provide an array of taste sensations sure to please. Yes, some of it can get a bit greasy but what a great guilty pleasure. They do have a bar connected to the restaurant which is nice. They have a few pool tables and if you catch them on the right night, they might be doing karaoke (with a song book that contains one of the widest array of genre choices I've seen in a karaoke bar). The dining room is quite lovely and very homey. Open on most (if not all) holidays, it's a great environment for a family out or a couple just looking for some quiet time alone and some romance. read more

No stars! We walked in, it was about half full, sign said to seat ourselves. We did. Nobody acknowledged us as we walked in, nobody came to give us water or menus, so about 10 minutes later, we walked back out. Not one person said a single word to us. read more

I beg you... DON'T DO IT! Terrible terrible terrible service. I can't stress that enough! The restaurant side is quiet and some dished are okay at best. The bar side is a nightmare! Floors are always sticky, so wear boots if you MUST go, ore your shoes will be glued to the floor. Restrooms aren't very clean, and the staff is the worst! So rude! You belong there if you are already a regular, but if you just bar hopping every once and awhile like I do, you are not welcome.. unless your a smoker. The smokers are nice to everyone. read more

First time eating at this restaurant, exploring something new to us. Very friendly staff prompted and always checking on our needs. Food was delicious and large portions. We look forward to eating again at this restaurant. read more

Quiet and pleasant. Good food and ample portions. Take out is quick and always correct

Food used to be good but the last couple of times we've been it was horrible! No matter how many times I ask for the items listed as hot to actually be hot they are bland. Ingredients are not fresh, could be because it is later than usual when I go in. Won't eat here again. read more

Always good Chinese food. Love their salt & pepper shrimp. The general tso tofu is the best I've ever had. Food is always hot and fresh.

Great place for a quick bite. Huge proportions for the price, like any other Chinese restaurant. The staff was extremely friendly and service was fast. Food would be what you would expect. Quiet atmosphere for dinner, which I really like. read more

My alll time favorite!! The food is fresh and delicious! I won't eat Chinese ANYWHERE else! Love,love,love! read more

We order take out from here a couple times a month. It's good Chinese food and they are always really friendly.
