omg awful! paid $30 for two very bland meals. the soup was bland, the pork fried rice was bland. Got a chicken and broccoli lunch special and the chicken pieces were hard as a rock and was bland no flavor at all even with the sauce they put on it. Nothing and I mean nothing had flavor. Couldn't even eat it, had to throw it out. Do yourself a favor and order from somewhere else.
I got delivery to my semi.. Food was Delicious and Egg drop soup warmed my soul. Definitely would order again if in area again.
Despite many horrible reviews, my experience was great. I ordered because of the brochure left at my hotel, and then went to Google maps to read the reviews. I would never have ordered from this place if I had seen the overwhelming majority of negative reviews, I figured my money was lost, I'd wait 2 hours for the good, which would be wretched when/if it ever turned up. HOWEVER....my experience was completely contrary to the reviews. The driver called 21 minutes after I placed my order to say he was arriving at the hotel. As someone who grew up in Hunan province, I have to say, the food wasn't as spicy as genuine Hunan food, but the flavors did evoke memories of authentic, ChangSha cuisine.

Delivery was way late, then when driver arrived, he awkwardly stood back from the door, not handing the food over and asked me to call the restaurant a third time to pay. I was on the phone twice before with them and they never mentioned payment was needed by phone. The restaurant didn’t answer so I tried calling again, a FOURTH time and was able to pay, awkwardly reading my card number aloud to someone on the phone as the delivery guy watched. Traveling all day, we hadn’t eaten in 14 hours. Finally, at least, some food. Except it was the most disgusting, bland, just plan bad Asian food I’ve ever tasted, I’ve eaten a lot. The rice tasted like cardboard and the pi
Made the mistake of ordering here after seeing their menu in my hotel. I will say, the delivery was fast. However, the food was very disappointing. My tofu dish was just ok, but my friend’s chow fun was immensely bland with no flavor whatsoever. Dumplings tasted like dishwater. If you are staying at a newark airport hotel, it would probably take 5 min of google searching to find a better spot than this one.
