the outside of the restaurant
Neal E.

Had dinner here this evening. It's a fairly small Chinese place located in Warrenton, VA. There are six dine-in tables in the place. I ordered a pint of Hot and Sour soup and Kung Pao Chicken to eat in, and a 12 oz. can of Diet Coke. There was a fairly steady stream of folks coming in to place orders to go - or to pick up phone orders. My soup came up first and was brought out to me - then a bit later my Kung Pao. The Hot and Sour soup was about the most unremarkable version of this soup I can ever remember having. And when the Kung Pao was brought out - it was a fairly large amount of food - BUT - it was like some sort of generic spicy Chinese stir-fry - it's flavor little resembled any good Kung Pao. There were yellow-ish green cubes of a vegetable in the dish that I could not readily identify - I think it was a squash of some sort, and there were also baby corns in the dish. The food itself was not bad, or rotten, or anything like that. It just did not taste like anything resembling Kung Pao. I would be curious to hear what experiences other folks have had here.

Burnt! Also not quantity stated.

So, I have given this restaurant a chance for the first time. I would not order from here again. First my shrimp toast was burnt. The menu had a seven in parentheses besides shrimp toast, and I received four. There are also no condiments included in the order or plasticware. It was delivered to me in an open cardboard box. I called to complain about the shrimp toast and the person on the phone offered no resolution whatsoever and just said he would pass the message along, then said bye. The rest of the food was okay. I still wouldn't bother ordering here again.

Combination fried rice

Got 2 large combinations fried rice, no shrimp or meet only little bit of Chiken. Worst lunch I've ever had.

"Vegetable" lo mein with a total of three pieces of broccoli and literally no other vegetable.

Good food. We probably stop by once a month. A great place to go when we just don't have time or the ambition to cook.

Flew into town for a concert and saw this at the top of the recommendations, very serendipitous!…read more The place has a great atmosphere from the moment you walk in, the decor has a unique kitsch and the music is a definite vibe as well, and that's before you meet the staff. The staff was friendly front to back, hostess, waitress, bar tender- friendly and knew the menu and had solid recommendations and knowledge of the menu. The food was great, we had rangoons for an appetizer, followed by their famous General Tso's and the Mongolian Combination, all delicious! Highly recommend this place if you're in the area! Shout out to Jason!

I came here with a couple of friends who live in the area. The initial vibe and aesthetic seemed…read morereally cool. I was excited for my meal and experience there. However things went downhill pretty quickly. I ordered one of their specialty cocktails, which is more expensive than most of their meals, which was just ok. The drink was pretty strong which I didn't mind but most of it was just ice and the gummy was a little stale. Overall it looked cool but didn't really justify the price. The service is really where I felt let down. The 2 friends that I came with got their food in a normal timespan but it took 20-30 minutes for me to get my food. When I asked about it (because clearly they forgot) they lied and said their kitchen was backed up and the order is being prepared. The restaurant was half empty at that point so it was a little hard to believe. Also another waiter came out 10 minutes later and said my food just started to get cooked and will be out soon. Both my friends were pretty much done with their meals by the time I got mine and I didn't get anything from the staff aside from an insincere apology and a bad excuse. For the price we paid I expected much better service and for the staff to go above and beyond when they make a mistake, which didn't happen. The food was good when it eventually did come out though so I I'll give it an extra star for that.

OKAY UPDATE REVIEW NEEDED. AND GUESS WHAT, IT ISN'T CHANGING…read more FIVE STARS. FIVE. COUNT EM. It's been a year since COVID-19, and 11 months since we've started ordering from this place. In that time we've ordered probably 7 or 8 times. When anybody in my community asks for Chinese food recommendations we ALWAYS recommend this place. I recommend this place to people at work, and I work FAR North, "Hey, if you're in the Warrenton area check out this place". I would absolutely eat here more often if I could, but unfortunately, my doctor probably wouldn't like it. The food I like from here, that TASTES AMAZING: Spring rolls Egg rolls Singapore Rice Noodle Beef on Stick Chicken Skin on Stick General Tso's Chicken Combo Lo Mein Beef and Green Bean. The donuts. Yeah. The donuts. Amazing. Pu pu platter. I need to start taking pictures. I'll update again. And keep ordering from here.

The egg drop soup was lukewarm. The egg rolls were super greasy. I asked for a cup of ice for my…read moreDiet Coke and was told they didn't have ice. Moo goo Gia pan was over loaded with grease. The meal was terrible. I asked for my money back and was told that because I tasted the food, I had to pay. I understand I should pay for the soda but being charged full price for a meal I couldn't eat was unreasonable. The music was so loud we couldn't communicate with them. It was a terrible experience. Just awful food and service.

If you're looking for outstanding Asian food, this place is absolutely worth seeking out. The…read morelocation is a little tucked away, but the food more than makes up for it. The portions are incredibly generous, and every dish we tried was delicious. The drunken noodles were packed with flavor, the fried rice was perfectly cooked, the Tso's chicken was excellent, and the steamed fish was fresh and beautifully prepared. The highlight of the meal was the spectacular tableside Flambé dessert--it was both delicious and a fun experience. The service was exceptional. Our waitress was incredibly sweet, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The owners were also warm and welcoming, adding to the wonderful dining experience. And don't skip the beer--it was fantastic! Great food, generous portions, outstanding hospitality, and excellent value. We'll definitely be back.

I saw this place named on some guy's list of best restaurants in NOVA. We only ordered 4 dishes so…read moreI can't speak for the rest of the menu. But what we did get was pretty darn good (if a bit pricey)! The style is much more authentic, so if you're looking for something like Hunan Cafe (Greenbriar), or that NOVA institution China King, this is different. Is it better? For the most part, yes. (But I still crave that Americanized sweet, spicy, glazey brown sauce that comes in slight variations in so many dishes). I had the hot and sour soup, Szechuan spicy fried eggplant sticks, Taiwanese rice noodles with fried tofu, and the Chengdu twice cooked pork. Everything was excellent, except....the hot and sour soup. Honestly, Hunan Cafe and China King beat the pants off this place's hot and sour soup. Here, it was a bit too sweet. It had some red chilies in it, but I could not detect much white pepper. And it's a vegetarian version, so no small bits of chicken or pork. I'd skip this the next time I order from here. But the other dishes... amazing! The noodles were light-tasting but still delicious. The eggplant was garnished with cilantro, garlic, salt, and red chili sauce. The twice cooked pork was sauteed with sliced leeks and the same red chili sauce. I think that's the fresh, zingy, spice flavor profile I like that can't be found at Americanized Chinese restaurants. Sure, China King has its place and I'll still go back there when I'm close (RIP China King Fair Lakes and Herndon). And admittedly, I go to that awful Panda chain occasionally because I never learn. The unfortunate thing is, I'll more likely go to these places than Cheng's because of the price. The pork dish was $21 and the noodle dish was $19. My total bill came to $60 before tax and tip. If I need to stuff my face with a Chinese umami bomb fast, I'm probably going to the other places for $15-30. I do want to try the rest of the menu at Cheng's, but it's going to be a drawn-out process for the sake of my wallet. I'd be remiss if I didn't include a comment from my dining partner. She compared the quality and taste of the food at Cheng's to Peter Chang's (either Peter Chang's-Herndon, or Mama Chang Fairfax). A high compliment. But she said the value is better at those places' AYCE options than what we got at Cheng's, and I agree. If you've been to none of these places, you have to try them all at least once.

It's great!!! Recommended…read more Good price Good location Good service I'll be back Good food

My luck with customer service lately... its not great…read more Waitress didnt take notes on our order. Botched it big time. Argued with me about it until I told her it literally didn't even matter because REGARDLESS I had no food so id like some actual food. And my drink that I ordered that still hadn't arrived even after everyone had their food. I didnt get my drink until everyone else was mid way through eating and still didnt have my food and my daughter was getting upset at having to pick through her food because it was made wrong. I canceled my order and asked for the bill. Just ridiculous. Id like to say this is the only bad experience ive had... its not but it just keeps getting worse, so we wont be going back. Incidentally its the THIRD time they messed up my daughters Pho, which is NOODLES AND BROTH... how can you mess it up? Every time they add something else in... like.. why? Do you think my picky kid wont see it? She will. And then she will refuse to eat. Or she will cry. If i order it a certain way, give it to me that way or TELL me you cant. But this time they added something that usually NOT in it... crazy... seriously. And every time its a different answer as to what they can or can not do... like they cant do no meat. Or they cant leave off the onions. Yes you can. You can do both. You can also choose to put the meat on the side, but this time it was that. Meat had to go in, couldnt be on the side which was fine, but they ADDED bean sprouts into the noodles and broth... its supposed to be on the side... like.. why? YOU EVEN CLARIFIED THAT I WANTED IT PLAIN AND I REPEATED IT SEVERAL TIMES. I usually have respect for waitstaff. This was the first time ive left a 0 tip I think. Additionally she knew how bad she screwed up because she put an x through the tip section. There were ao many points she could have done a pivot though. Not arguing with me. Just fixing it. That was step 1. Getting my drink in a timely fashion. Thats 2. Offering to fix my daughters food when I let her know it was WRONG. 3. None of that was done. No offer to como anything on the bill. Even added the Thai tea that I didnt touch until after I saw they charged me for it (it didnt even show up until the end, remember?) I tried to down it aince I paid over $7 for it... it was too sweet so I couldn't get it down. Anyways... you suck Faangthai...
