I am really impressed with their improvement from the last time I came which was shortly after they opened! The food is delicious, we love the beef lo mein, the chicken teriyaki and the fried rice. My toddler loved the fried dumplings and will eat an order on her own every time. I hope they add cream cheese (crab) Rangoon to the menu at some point, my kids would be sooooo happy! What impressed me the most was how clean their entire space was. It still looked brand new. With the amount of sauces that their menu consists of, I would think it would look a little more used, but no, it was spotless. I’m not someone who likes the dingy hole in the wall food places, I prefer the clean ones and Dods exceeded expectations. They are back in our take out rotation! P. S.- my daughter ate 3 of the dumplings before I could snap the picture

Feb 2026:
DOD’s beef is looking good again. Not stingy today. Actually seeing the beef.

Old review:
Last visit, they’re back to being stingy on the DOD’s beef. So back to a three star review. You get a lot of onions and jalapeños. Seems like owner just wants money but not provide decent quantity of meat. They’re worse than Chipotle. Much less beef.

Old review:
Takeout tonight was good. Many months ago, I complained that the DODS beef had very little beef. They did much better this time.
The spicy chicken was flavorful, surprisingly good. Actually spicy, so beware as I think most Caucasians will not be ready for that.

The beef was middle of the road spicy. Shrimp was also good, though not much to rave about I think panda express makes better walnut shrimp.
Noodles was my four year old’s favorite dish.
Pricing was fair for what we got. I always try to imagine would I be able to make this much food with the same amount of money and time? Nope. Worth it.

I always get take out and always get the 3 items combo and bowl with DOD’S Beef. My husband and I both enjoy their food very much. It’s prepared fresh and food is always very good. Staff is always friendly and wait time isn’t long. I read some of the previous reviews and everyone has their opinion when it comes to Chinese food. DODS is a good spot for Chinese food, to US. Go try it for yourself.

Pros: Staff were friendly and patient as I was deciding what I wanted to order. The pricing is reasonable here! The fried rice was great!

Cons: The presentation of the chicken is not the best and the seasoning and sauces are just okay.

I do want to try again but they need to work on improving the presentation and taste of the meat being served.

They opened this restaurant recently. My wife and I had noticed it when we were stopping by to get pizza next door. If we hadn’t already paid for the pizza, we would have had it then. But we waited a few days and my wife and son and I went for dinner. As we went in we were greeted by the workers. At first just by first glance, it was very similar to the set of a chain Asian restaurant with a certain black and white bear on it. At first there seems to be a little confusion with the worker. You tell them if you want rice or noodles then you go and get your protein at the next section. My wife gets my sons first “He’ll have noodles” then she takes off to the protein. One might think they would get all the people in the parties rice/noodles then go to the protein. When we didn’t move the worker seemed a bit confused. Anyway, once we got passed that it seemed to go smoother. We figure out our protein(s) and head to the checkout. I get the Dods Beef which was quite tasty (But wasn’t as spicy as one would think. Especially since it said it was spicy) and the beef and broccoli ( which tasted almost identical to the chain mentioned above). My wife got hers and my son got a Dods Bowl ( Wish they would have had a kids meal, because that was way too much for my son). My son got the teriyaki chicken (which he loved) and the noodles (Which he didn’t). My wife and I tasted the noodles to see if there was something wrong, and they had absolutely zero flavor at all. As a whole the negatives didn’t deter me from coming back, there was more positives. So we would definitely come back. But that’s just my opinion. Go for a visit and try yourself. Definitely a great change to the area.

I genuinely am leaving this review because I think the restaurant can benefit from this feedback. I had my husband drop in today to grab us some lunch on the go. We got 2 portion of teriyaki chicken + steamed vegetables.
Price is reasonable and the atmosphere from what my husband said was great.
My husband gets the food home, and right off the bat, the food looked completely unappetizing.. there’s huge chunks of unseasoned chicken thighs that were sporadically thrown in the bowl over the steamed vegetables that might as well have just been served uncooked because they were SO crunchy. I don’t even know how to describe the chicken.. it was thighs, which is great, but it’s unlike any chicken teriyaki I’ve ever had. And not in a good way There wasn’t even a bit of visible seasoning on anything and the teriyaki sauce was a water consistency.
Since we were eating at home I decided to throw everything back in a skillet and thicken the sauce with cornstarch and season really well. It definitely made it easier to eat..
I hope that there are better options at Dod’s and I’ll try again, but I was not overly impressed with our first experience.

This was my first time here, and wow… can I just say that the food was amazing! My expectations were low, since it’s smaller town, but I loved everything I got. The lo mein had a great flavor and was cooked perfectly. Also their honey shrimp and Dod’s beef was A-1. Overall the flavors packed a tasty punch! This will most likely become a regular spot for me.

We finally ordered from here and we tend to agree with some of the common thoughts we saw in other reviews.

Portion size – good
Price – good

Taste –
– Beef and broccoli: bland but okay
– Dods beef: actually quite good, but a little too spicy for me
– Egg drop soup: good
– Crab rangoons: good
– Teriyaki chicken: probably the worst thing we had. It was the same color as the fried rice. There’s nothing caramelized and it’s very bland. Its not like any teriyaki I’ve ever had. Its basically just tasted like boiled chicken.
– Fried rice: it’s not fried. And it doesn’t include anything other than rice – no eggs, no veggies, and no seasoning. It looks like they just tossed steamed white rice in a small amount of soy sauce.
*Sidenote: We couldn’t figure out why, but it smelled and tasted like Indian curry. There were definitely curry spices in the rice and chicken.

Overall, it was okay. Nothing was off putting and it seemed clean inside. But it also seemed very bland. I really want to support the business and the price is good, but its not something I would order again.

Maybe it’s the business model. It looks like it’s a large batch pre-prepared buffet style kitchen behind the counter. Once you see that, it somewhat explains why the entrees are relatively bland and dont have any “pan flavor” you’d get from things being cooked to order. Instead, it just tastes like it’s heated like a cafeteria tray.

All criticism is meant to be constructive. Not trying to hurt anyone’s feelings but none of us were particularly impressed.
