Customer Reviews
I’ve been to a few Chinese restaurants in the Charlottesville region. This restaurant was the poorest that I have visited. I ordered egg drop soup and sweet-and-sour chicken. The soup was good, but the sweet-and-sour chicken was hard nuggets and a slightly offputting taste, Like they had been in the fryer too long with old grease. I ate two or three pieces and threw out the rest. Very disappointing.
Ordered delivery from this place and had to get a refund because it was so greasy. The entire bag was drenched in grease and all of the food had a pool of grease at the bottom of their boxes. There was also a pool at the bottom of the bag. One of the sides of the boxes was so covered in grease that it molded to the bag and I had to tear it off. Really hate to write this review because I know they’re a small business serving college students, but the amount of grease made me lose my appetite.
6/1/23 ORDERED VEGES AND NOODLES. Delicious if you don't want spicy. Best of all you don't feel bloated from eating their food. Enough for 2 people. (pic #4) 3/31/23 ORDERED HUNAN BEEF - AMAZING - pic 3. Sauce is delicious. Not overly spicy; just perfect. 1/25/23 Charlottesville, VA. Ordered Amazing Chicken (darker pic with mushrooms). Very good with a sweet spicy sauce. Large pieces of chicken and lots of mushrooms, onions and those tiny corn things. Previous Order: Moo Goo Gai Pan. Vegetables crisp, chicken tender, lots of water chestnuts and zucchini. Wonderful light flavor. Enough for 2 lunches. Highly recommend if not in the mood for something spicy or heavy.
I think this is the best fast Chinese food in town! Every once in a while they have an off day, but for the most part... delicious! Can't beat the $2 delivery charge either.
Decent fast food Chinese restaurant. Could be a quick pickup it a long painful wait depending on the time of day that you go. I enjoy the food and lunch combo pricing. Not a lot room to sit inside. They could use a better system to keep track of who bought what so that when the food is ready it goes to the correct person in order. Staff is generally friendly and accommodating. Thanks.
