We ordered and got our food within five minutes, the man was very polite and pleasant. Our food was warm and flavorful. All in all our experience was very good. read more

So fresh and tasty all the time!! Also one of the best pho dishes I've tried in Columbus, great portions and good prices!

Ordered from Twin Sunlight through GrubHub for pickup. The food was really good, which is the only reason it got 2 stars. An hour after we picked up our order, I got an email from GrubHub, "your order from Twin Sunlight has been adjusted," and they were charging me $4.00 more, for nothing!! We did not modify the order or change the order at all! Luckily GrubHub customer service made this better and refunded the $4.00. However, I'll never be ordering from here again! Why would they charge $4.00 more, an hour after we'd picked up the order?! Doesn't make sense, shady! read more

Would not have found this without Yelp. I had an errand nearby that didn't take as long as expected, and looked for Chinese food nearby. This is in a tiny strip, and it's easy enough to find if you know it's there but does not stand out as a restaurant from the main roads. Small inside but clean and comfy. You can dine-in, but it is mainly a carryout place (even before the current situation.) And, it's not just Chinese, it's Thai, and there are plenty of interesting options. I went with one of my standards, pad see ew (wide rice noodles, meat, veggies.) It was one of the best versions I've ever had. Perfect proportions of noodles, chicken, veggies (sprouts, peas, green onions, etc.) In a savory sauce. Yum. I also got crab Rangoon. Good, but overcooked, especially at the edges. Still enjoyable. Friendly, fast, basic service. Pop in bottles or at the fountain. Maybe a little expensive for the portion size (I had no leftovers, sadly,) but not bad, and it's good stuff. read more

this place is grate deserves more stars!!! Came 5 minutes b4 close and food was amazing freshh and pretty authentic

Twin Sunlight has mixed reviews. It should. This place has been very inconsistent over the past few years. Last time it was good. The next time who knows what it will be like. I had the Tofu Mala. It's about $8 for the regular portion. This item is pretty spicy. It comes with jalapeño. Much like mala string beans, most of the flavor comes from the hot seasoning. It's pretty bad looking inside. It's not surprising the dining room was empty. Just get takeout. read more

I will give this another try but we had the pad Thai and it was unremarkable. The noodles were kind of mushy - like they were over cooked. I would definitely not get that again. I'm going to try the Pho next time. They do a good business. read more

This was our first trip to Twin Sunlight and they did not disappoint! We split an order of fried dumplings- the sauce is amazing! I got Kung Pao and my daughter got the sesame chicken. Both were excellent. They were piping hot and the sauces were really good. Everything was fresh and tasty. We found our new place! We decided to try it out after someone posted about them on Facebook. Glad we gave them a shot. I've passed it many times over the years but never tried it. read more

Twin Sunlight - a tray of asian food - Chinese Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I know this place has mixed reviews but we like it. It is slightly inconsistent but for the most part we get good food here. We've only had a handful of dishes because we normally just get the pho. It's close to work so we went here often, so often that they call me the pho lady. We'd get 5-7 orders of pho at a time. We've had pho at many restaurants in Columbus and I still haven't found the perfect one ever since Lee's on the west side closed. This one is pretty good though. The broth is flavorful and not super greasy like we've had at some places. The vegetables are generally fresh. The meat portion sizes are good. You can add extra noodles for a small charge if you'd like. The thing that brings this to a four star instead of three is the service. They seem to genuinely appreciate our business. They are willing to give extra sauces when we get our order to go. They make sure everything is right before we leave. They never act like we are an inconvenience. I know it's more work and costs them extra because we get our order to go so often but they are always smiling and friendly. read more

Love to support this small local business! Fast service and we've never had a bad tasting meal. Prices are decent also

I have been a to many different style Asian restaurant's in my life. Well this is the modern "wok" style. but it is much better than you would expect. A small family owned business that serves good food at a decent price. Been coming here since we stumbled across it back in 2015, and even when we were disappointed "because they messed up the order" they have always made it good and took care of us. So the menu has many options like most in this category. The Pho is really good I must say! So is the Kung Pao and Szechuan chicken too!! After you try this tiny, but awesome place you will soon see why it is as good as I say. The inside is small, but truthfully it is never busy enough to where you cannot find a place to sit. Now the owner does most of the cooking and order taking. He is very nice and very friendly especially once you become a regular. He takes care of his returns and gets to know them as well. Even though it is a "to go" kind of place, when you eat inside you are served with real china and flatware. Not the Styrofoam box and a plastic spork like most others in this category. You are also told to sit and your food is brought to you. If you are ever in the area and want to see better ingredients with a better taste give Twin Sunlight a try. He competes with the likes of Golden Chopsticks who has two stores and delivers. read more

I have picked up takeout twice for lunch, and both meals were good. The takeout boxes leaked into the bag both times, making a mess. The staff has been friendly, and service was rather quick. I've had better, and the building could be cleaned better, but I will be eating at Twin Sunlight again. read more

The owner was so kind to us and we absolutely loved the pho soup highly recommend trying this place out

I originally ordered the chicken Chow mein, but unfortunately I mixed it up with the Low mein . They were so kind enough to remake my order and even customized it to what I wanted . They're a super nice family own restaurant (I think) and the customer service is amazing! The food was so good! They even through in an egg role for me which also so so so good !! Definitely order from here again! read more

Twin Sunlight - Beef low mein - Chinese Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Underrated, cozy, and conveniently located spot. Have been a few times now and it never lets me down. The owner is passionate about serving good food. I called and wanted wings today and he said he had drumsticks instead and they wouldn't let me down - and he was right. Massive, meaty, crispy fried to perfection. The 'chicken vegetable' entree is a revelation too - a perfectly balanced meal in a box of rice, chicken, and vegetables in a light, tasty sauce. Would also recommend the Kung pao chicken but the menu offers something for everyone. You also easily feed 4 for less than $40, what more can you ask for? 5/5 read more

I usually plan where I am going to have a meal that I review and usually my daughter is with me, (please dont tell her this can be our secret). Anyhow, I was wanting lunch and was on Phillipi Rd and knew there was an Asian restaurant close by. So I decided to try The Twin Sunlight. The Sunlight is small family run affair, just my kind of place. Its a mix of Asian food styles. I chose the Pork with bean sprouts, lunch size. After seeing the nest table served their Pho ( vietnamese soup ) I wished I had ordered that. O well such is life, well, my life anyway. The pork w/ bean sprouts was served fast with a side of fried rice. It was cooked perfect, the protein well cooked and the bean sprouts warm and still crunchy. They added nice slivers of onion greens to the bean sprouts and a rich soy based sauce. The fried rice was also well cooked and just sticky enough, but had a bland flavor. A little more egg and some onion would have helped the fried rice. The portion was slightly small but over all the meal was very good. I noticed the reviews of the Sunlight were either good or bad. Its strange how people can have such polar opinions of this restaurant. As for me, I'll be back, I have to try their Pho and I'll have to take Quart Quart with me on my next visit. I'll act surprised, like I've never been there. LOL read more

Food was prepared "express", however the cashier used non-gloves hands to grab the egg rolls from a very large bin. God knows how long all of those had been in there. Egg roll tasted like it had been thawed out and refrozen several times. And the pork lo-mein tasted okay for the first two hot bites but then suddenly tasted like hot garbage juice. Sure enough 3 hours later I'm violently getting sick in my car. So sick I had to have someone come pick me up and drive me home. Spent the night in the bathroom. Thanks for the express food poisoning. More like Twin Symptoms. read more

This has to be one of the worst Chinese/Asian restaurant I have ate at. The quality of food is poor, small portions, and over priced for what you get. I ordered the orange chicken and I rethink they gave me general to's chicken instead. The food tasted like it was heated in the microwave and thrown into a to go box. On top of everything else. The lady didn't properly shut my box and most of my lunch spilled into the bag. Save your money and time. This place SUCKS ON ALL LEVEL!!! read more

The very first time I wish I could have given 0 stars for a place. How exactly do I put into words that everything, everything, was bad? We walk in the door and stand at the counter for 5 minutes before someone tells us we can just sit down and order from the table. Another 5 minutes before the one waitress takes our order. She is probably the most unfriendly waitress I have ever had; she never even said "Hello." I order a water, only to be brought a bottled water. The drinks don't come out for 5 minutes; they actually came out with our appetizer. The crab rangoons are soft and chewy almost as if the oil wasn't hot enough. Entree's come out. We ordered 2 "Safe" items: Pad-thai and General Tso's. Both sucked. Probably the second worst Chinese food I have eaten. The topper was the check, after the waitress puts it on the table without a word I take a look. When I ordered the Crab rangoons I wasn't really sure how much they cost. Their price board had sharpie scratched on it to change prices but I think it said $2.50. The togo menu clearly said they were $3.95. They actually cost $4.50, or at least that is what she decided to charge us. The pad-thai, which was terrible, somehow cost $9.95. What doesn't make sense is that no other dish on the whole menu cost that much for a lunch portion or a dinner portion. So how does it cost that much for lunch? I don't know. All the other shrimp dishes were $7.95... Needless to say, after some of the worst service of my life and some terrible, unknowingly overpriced food, we left quickly and gave a very small tip. I would never go back, and I would recommend that you skip it even if you have a craving and it is the only place within 50 miles. read more

We decided to check this place out for the first time at lunch today and yes, this place is a little rough around the edges concerning paint job and decor. It's a small no-nonsense family owned Chinese takeout. The owners were nice and welcoming which was great. The well-dressed Pad Thai was enough for leftovers and the Beef Noodle Pho (see photo) had a really nice broth. So happy to have a Pho option in that part of town. I would have liked to have had some basil with it but I think I could have asked for some since it was mentioned in a few other menu items. Next time. Will definitely be going back to explore the menu further. Stay tuned. read more

I've driven by Twin Sunlight numerous times and saw it mentioned on a Facebook page of a place to check out. We ordered veggie lo mein, general tso's chicken and spicy dumplings. I love that they have an option for all white meat chicken for an extra $1, totally worth it in my opinion! The spicy dumplings came highly recommended, they were crispy and the sauce was like a slightly spicy soy. The vegetables in the lo mein were fresh. The portions were HUGE! My order was ready in 15 minutes and it was steaming hot. Prices are super reasonable around $25 before tip for everything that was 2 full meals for my boyfriend and I. They also have Thai dishes I want to try as well. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

Average quickie Chinese food. We buy there because its close to home. read more

It's a good place once you really know what cuisine they actually serve. The owner has to make the food westernize to suit the every growing white american taste bud. If you notice the restaurant isn't your traditional Chinese place, as they also serve food from the Southeast Asian region. People need to understand how a restaurant or food place functions before writing reviews so hastily. Furthermore everyone who post reviews on here are mostly your average Caucasian Americans in which some complain about food being nasty or gross but don't understand that the flavor and taste are part of the region and cuisine. Don't call a dish nasty if you were never raised in eating it. That's like me saying I hate playing football when I never played football. Please have an open mind when you try other people's food because everyone has their own opinion, not every dish is going to please your taste buds. I would say this isn't a review but a good reason for me to express my hatred for people who are so ignorant. read more

This place is a hidden gem. The food is hot, fresh, and delicious. I ordered Szechuan chicken and it was fantastic- spicy and seared crispy. The service is very friendly. This is the best Chinese place on the west side and top 5 in Columbus. I'll definitely be back. read more

Not impressed. Crab Rangoon's were burned and hardly had any filling in them. The Wonton soup contained 2 wontons. Shrimp fried rice was ok and my wife did enjoy her General Tso's chicken. I probably wouldn't go back. Not worth the $32 I spent. read more

I visited this place for a quick bite about 4 years ago, and I'll be honest, it was really good. I mean as good as chinese take out place can be! But I went in the other the day for lunch and it's by far the worst tasting chinese food I've had. The rice was over cooked, too much water, and too sticky. The sauce tasted like 3 day old gravy and it was just awful. I don't recommend this place at all, if you drive a mile further you can get better chinese. But see for yourself and take a lunch break there so you can see for yourself. read more

This place is about a mile from my house so we go there every twice in a while. Here are my learnings from eating there a dozen times over the last few years: 1. Never call in a carry out order. They ALWAYS get it wrong. 2. Always make them repeat your order back to you. They always get it wrong. 3. When they get it wrong, they blame it on you. Always. It's to the point that I think it's funny. Sometimes it works out because you end up trying something you might not have ordered before. 4. They are $1-$2 more expensive than other Chinese food joints for the same product. 5. When they get their best meals right, its delicious. Having said all that, the food is good. General Tso's Chicken, Almond Chicken, Shrimp lo mein.....all good. Egg rolls are below average, as is the basics like chicken friend rice. read more

Honestly the best "hole on the wall" Chinese I've ever had. Great quality and portion size for the low cost!

My family and I Love this place!! The owners are very nice and the food is always great. We've tried the Pad Thai, House/and chicken Pho(spicy), Thai chicken curry(spicy), they can make anything special if you ask. Crab Rangoon and dumplings are awesome. We got tired of the cashew chicken (it is really good though!) we like the spicy dishes. read more

Closer to a 3.5 (which isnt a bad thing for a little corner dive joint). FOOD - not too bad. Differing styles, flairs, takes and tastes on similar dishes served at other Chinese restaurants but overall usually pretty good. PRICE/VALUE - reasonably priced. SERVICE - prompt, pleasant but hurried. ATMOSPHERE - nothing special but only have take-out experience. Will and do go back for quick and good Chinese food. read more

The place itself isn't anything to speak of, but the dishes are! I've gotten take out from here more than a couple dozen times in the last 10 years or so. Always surprised at how good the owner cooks. Certainly the best Chinese takeout in the area! read more

Food is good similar quality to an average take out place. Perfect for your hankering for anything chinese

Lived in LA, San Fran, and Seattle, and this place is just what I needed upon moving out here. We used to drive from Victorian Village to eat here, now we live down the street. Not fancy, but a perfect go-to home-style Friday night take out Chinese place. A staple for us. read more

I give it two stars because first time here they made something off menu which was a nice gesture but after giving them three fry's over the past four years they dissapoint everytime. Basic Chinese food is not good they don't get the order right and egg rolls, crab Rangoon are all stale. I hear the Thai is good but if you can't get basics right then I don't want it. Also they refuse to give you anything other than dinner after three. read more

I live close, so this used to be my go to for Chinese take out. The prices have gone way up, and the quality has gone way down. I ordered the chicken with vegetables, and there were several small bones in my chicken. I won't be going back, ever. read more

I go here often for lunch, and often have taken business guests from Asia. Everyone loves their food. Food rating only would be a 5, facilities drop it to a 4 overall.They will modify any dish or make items not on the menu. Singapore noodles are a favorite, along with Pho, Basil Chicken, Pad Thai (better than Pei Wei, on par with Thai Orchid) and Szechan anything. read more

I had the general tso's chicken and it was awesome! No fat or mystery meat.I ordered it to go and was still very hot when I got back to my office. read more

This is a very casual but clean establishment. Over the years they have upgraded the dine in area. Its not fancy by any means though. I went there last night as I was craving their Pho (beef noodle soup) and it hit the spot. It's a good sign when I go to an Asian restaurant and there are other Asian people there like last night at Twin Sunlight. There was a young couple with their daughter and a young man waiting for his take out. Back to the Pho...its a traditional Vietnamese noodle soup (although Laos and Thai people may try to claim as theirs - I am Laos and Thai by the way). Their broth is so delicious. You can tell they simmered all day. They serve the noodle soup with a plate of bean sprouts, lime wedges and jalapenos (not traditional) so you can flavor it your way. They also give you a bottle of srirachi and hoisin sauce, again so you can flavor it to your liking. (This is how it is done traditionally.) For $6.95 you cannot beat this Pho. It hit the spot last night. I haven't ordered their Chinese food for a long time just because I haven't craved Chinese lately. However, I do remember their hot and sour soup and kung pao chicken was delish and I wouldn't hesitate to order it again. read more
