Red Lantern Chinese Cuisine

I went here for the first time tonight and boy am I mad I’ve been spending my money elsewhere! The portion is huge! The flavor was solid! I got beef lo mein and seafood vermicelli. Both were delicious- I do prefer a bit more salt, but I added soy sauce and was good to go! I’m going to request garlic to my noodles next time (personal preference). Price was perfect for the portion! I will be back!

Red Lantern is inside the City Farmer’s Market food court, so don’t go expecting fancy décor or table service. You go here for the food, and it is absolutely worth it. The woman at the counter was friendly, helpful, and just a joy to deal with. One of the best parts is that you can buy fresh seafood from the market and bring it to them to cook. We did this with lobster and fish, and they came out with some of the best dishes I have had in a long time. The ginger and scallion lobster was perfect, and the fish was cooked beautifully. Prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality. If you want a little bonus, just two stalls down there is a place called Xoi Che 1994 where I tried the sea foam coffee. It was fantastic and paired perfectly after such a rich meal. All in all,

Was absolutely fantastic! Thank you for all the wonderful food. Definitely going to be going back whenever I'm back in the area. Everything was delicious!!

We had shrimp fried rice and beef noodles, and both were absolutely flavorful, with a deliciously fragrant aroma that comes from cooking in a hot wok. The portions were incredibly generous, and I hope they keep it that way—please don’t reduce the portion sizes! I’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommended!

We dined at Red Lantern Chinese Cuisine in the City Farmers Market food court and were thoroughly impressed. We ordered the beef chow fun, fish maw with leek, and the seafood delight. Each dish was packed with flavor and showcased the coveted "wok hei" (wok flavor), particularly in the beef chow fun with its perfectly cooked, soft broad rice noodles. The seasoning across all dishes was spot-on—flavorful but not overly salty. For anyone looking to avoid the chaotic crowds at a certain well-known spot in GW, this restaurant is a fantastic alternative. Highly recommend giving it a try.
