That's later for dinner. However, this place could stand get a deep, deep, deep cleaning with a fresh coat of paint. While it's spacious, it lacks cleanliness on the floor, walls and windows. I wouldn't ordinarily eat at places this filthy but I sat in my car and saw a lot of people going in so I guess it was safe. The portions are huge but the proportion of meat in the entree (i.e., rice) was minuscule, except for the cheesesteaks. I would only come back for the cheesesteaks, the other dishes were just meh. I'm being extra generous with 4 stars, perhaps it's because I'm visiting for the holidays.

Representing 2023 in alphabet series, N is for Northwest Chinese Food. This place made the Top 100…read morebest restaurants in Washingtonian. I happened to disagree and don't see the appeal. I like most other Chinese restaurants I've been to better, but this place has its unique flair and a different spin on Chinese food. This was overall a negative experience. In May 2023, I had a date, which included Northwest Chinese Food. I had met her way back in March 2021 from an online date. We didn't end up going out again. Then, shortly before this date I saw her at a hiking Meetup group, but we didn't remember each other initially. She seemed cool, and I got her phone number but realized her # was in my phone already and then remembered the March 2021 date where we walked in a park. In May 2023, it was the same kind of thing of meeting for a walk and came up with meeting at Lake Artemisia. It was actually a decent date at the lake, and we were discussing dinner. We were looking on phone weighing options. She had suggested I think Mission BBQ, but I said I literally had like a day earlier. Ultimately, she suggested Northwest Chinese saying that it was one of her favorites, and I was game to try. She had said that she didn't drive there since she lived in College Park and walked to the park, and I drove us to Northwest Chinese. I forgot to factor parking being a pain in central College Park, which I was annoyed. I don't like paying to park just to eat a meal. So, I put 1 hour in the meter, which limited our time at the restaurant but is enough time to eat. If we had gone with Mission BBQ or whatever not in central College Park, we could've stayed 2 hours if it had been good. I honestly might have nixed the Northwest Chinese idea. Even though it was close to 8 PM on a Wednesday night, the restaurant was quite busy and was a wait, which I didn't think would be on the later side on a Wednesday night. It's a small hole in the wall place. It was nicely decorated, but it's small & tight spacing with limited seating. We waited outside for 15-20 minutes. We got seated. I told the server right away we have 40 minutes left on the meter so that he was aware. The one positive was the server did do a good job respecting our time and was efficient coming around often with water, etc. We got our food in good time. But this was quite spicy and adversely affected the taste for me. The quality seemed pretty good, but because of all the spice, I didn't enjoy this meal. Additionally, it was loud in there, and I had to speak unnaturally loud to the server and was hard to hear in there. Further, we were very close to the table next to us, particularly could've joined in on their conversation. Afterwards, I drove her back home. But the dinner with the loudness, it was hard to keep much of conversation going, the time constraint of the parking, dealing with the spiciness, it ruined what had been a good date at the lake. Overall, this restaurant left a sour taste or really more accurately a spicy taste in my mouth.

So I found out this spot out here got some Yak, and usually I just go on back to Baltimore when I want some; So I stopped at this Chinese joint and it was okay it kind of was hit a miss. It's like if I want to get some and really craving it, then I'll get some; but I'll probably rather just go to Bal-da-moor and copp' some. Don't get me wrong it's a nice little Chinese spot though... I mean I probably get something else there regular Chinese food but far as the yak... I just go home to get it. Don't get me wrong it had a nice flava, but it seem like it was missing sumpt'n.
