The Food (4/5): I had the General Chicken, which was a nice balance of a little spicy and a bit more sweet. It tasted fresh, and the chicken wasn’t dried out. The hot and sour soup, however, was a bit tougher—slightly bitter, but still tasty overall.
The Service (2/5): The service was pretty basic. My server handled everything—hosting, bidding, and all in between. No recommendations were offered; she was straight to the point, asking if I was ready to order. The food came out quickly—maybe a bit too quickly—but considering this wasn’t a high-end restaurant, it wasn’t too surprising.
The Atmosphere (1/5): The atmosphere and vibe were definitely the downside of the experience. It was uncomfortably hot inside, with portable fans placed around, making me wonder if something was wrong with the AC. There was no music, which made every conversation around me easily heard, adding to the discomfort.
It’s a cheap meal that doesn’t taste too bad.
First, they DO NOT serve szechuan cuisine. I make authentic Szechuan cuisine at home with ingredients imported from China. I understand the difference between authentic Chinese and Americsn restaurant Chinese cuisine, but they’re not even pretending to sell Szechuan cuisine. So, to them Szechuan is just random chinese word #23?
Second, stop with the sugar. Just stop. My life partner, she had the lemon chicken and it was thick, very sweet, and grainy, exactly like warm, poorly mixed cake icing. The next morning it had set up exactly like cake icing. It was spreadable. It was literally bad cake icing. Cake icing!
I had the black pepper chicken. It was also as sweet as cake icing. I make authentic black pepper chicken at home. Mine is the real deal. If we ignore the emberassing amount of sugar, they still cook theirs too hot, so the pepper becomes bitter, and even if it hadn’t, it was still not fresh. Powdered pepper that sat on a shelf and was handled with no care. The natural bitterness of the pea pods did not work with the overheated bitter black pepper This should not be a pea pod dish. And on top of that, it was very light on chicken. At least there was less to eat, I guess ♀️
My son had the sweet and sour chicken. A dish you expect to be very sweet. But not that sweet. How do you make food that sweet and not know you’re doing something wrong? I’m sure they know.
The crab rangoon tasted like they were made 10 hours earlier and reheated from a refrigerator. They were chewy. The egg roll was soggy and flavorless. I stopped eating it because I couldn’t figure out how they removed the flavor from what I think used to be cabbage. They said it had a small amount of beef in it. I mean, none is a small amount, so they weren’t exactly wrong
What they serve tastes like profit margins and sadness not coherent food.
In fact it makes me sad just thinking about it. I will not be going back. Go to the Asian Bistro at the Asian Market, Ling’s Asian Cuisine, Gold Mountain, Crystal Jade, or House of Lee. Do not go here.
Food: very over powering and garlicky. We ordered general chicken and sesame chicken both with fried rice. The fried rice was hot and tasty.
Overall, a solid 3 stars
