Second favorite place. Closed. Third, no go. And finally remembered Happy China. Yay! They're open! And they provide curbside service!

Wontons a bit doughy. Chicken with vegetables, prepared as requested: medium spicy. And orange beef, better than some local restaurants. Give them a go. A decent neighborhood joint!

Since I'm visiting here I don't have to worry about coming back but if I ever did I would know what not to order next time. The service was quick and the staff were nice enough. There was seating for about 25 people in the whole place and the environment was nice.

I know that we're limited on good options for Chinese food in the Canton/Holly Springs area, however I still won't return to China Wok. The food was tasteless. I don't know that I've had tasteless Chinese food too many times. I've tried the General Tso's chicken twice and the chicken and broccoli once. All complete let downs. Their prices aren't too bad, but the food also taste like it's low quality. On top of that, every time I call, the lady who answers the phone, sounds like she hates her job. She typically says "hello" or "China" and nothing else. And when I picked up the food, she wasn't anymore pleasant. If the food was good, I could ignore the service since it's take out. But there's nothing good about the food. Again, I feel like people go there for convenience or just because they've never had good Chinese food.
