“ORDER THE LUNCH SPECIAL FOR LESS THAN $20 GOT ENOUGH FOOD TO FEED 3 PEOPLE. BIGGEST EGG ROLL IN THE WORLD, EGG DROP SOUP BEEF EGG FOO YOUNG AND A MANGO SMOOTHIE. IF YOURE ON A TIGHT BUDGET SKIP THE SMOOTHIE AND YOULL COME OUT AT ABOUT $14 FOR 3 PEOPLE!. NO MSG SO NO HEADACHE OR FEELING EMPTY. AND EVERYTHING WAS FRESH. ABSOLUTELY THRILLED. AND THEY HAVE LOTS OF CHOICES ON LUNCH SOECIAL.😍🥰 IN THE HOOD AND DELIVERY WAS SUPER FAST. Absolutely the best.”
“Solid spot. It’s our favorite Chinese takeout in the neighborhood. Usually get the orange chicken, fried rice and pad Thai. Never close please 🥰”
“I’ve lived close by for a few years but had never tried any of the food. Today i decided to order pho and it was really good! I’ll definitely be ordering again in the future”
“I decided to try this spot out due to my old favorite spot Jess Cafe falling off and I gotta say for the price , amount of food and flavor in said food this spot wasn't bad. I decided to go with orange chicken and a side of shrimp Shumai which was fried that I didnt expect, but extremely fresh and delicious. The orange chicken was extremely flavorful , not gunked in sauce and overall really good. My only complaint was that it wasn't that crunchy which was probably due to me driving it home to eat. The fried rice pared with it was fresh , needed some shrimp but really good. The shrimp Shumai while good, I just wish it was steamed shumai instead. Overall I could see myself coming back in the future because the food was fresh , good and service was professional. The only negatives are they don't take discover cards and the restaurant doesn't have any real ambience so its not a date night spot but it does have tables & chairs to sit down and eat if you want too.”
“We arrived about 8:30. Closing time is 9 pm. The place was empty, though there were a few pickup orders. Wanting to keep it simple, I asked for a large wonton soup and a single eggroll. The other dish we got was a dinner special pepper steak, which included an egg roll and VERY plain fried rice. It was the smallest scoop of fried rice we have ever gotten in a restaurant, without a speck of green onion, a single bean sprout, and meat, and 2 thin slivers of fried egg. Basically totally tasteless. The pepper steak had 6 or 7 potions of meat, a bit on the fatty side, 3 pieces of green pepper, and a LOT of yellow onion just to fill up space. Not much taste EXCEPT raw yellow onion. Even though I ordered 1 eggroll, we ended up with 2 so we had to pay for the extra. The egg rolls were tasty at least. The wonton soup was the worst I have ever had. The meat filling was gristly pork pieces without any seasoning, chopped vegetables, or anything that would add some flavor. I believe there were 8 awful wontons sunk at the bottom of plain broth. Not a speck of green onion, nappa cabbage, roast pork or bok choy. Basically plain yellow broth. Maybe the Thai dishes are better, but we paid over $26 for some of the worst excuse of Chinese food we have ever had. The dinner special was a significantly smaller package and portion than we have gotten from any other place.”
“The food was lacking flavor, and there wasn't much food for the cost. Soup broth was good, but wontons were gristly and not that good. Pepper Steak didn't have many peppers, and might not have been steak. The plain fried rice was bland. No green onions, only a hint of egg and no bean sprouts. Just rice with some soy sauce and oil. Very disappointed. Egg rolls were fine.”
“Absolutely immaculate. I’ve been craving good Chinese food and this place totally delivered. I’d give more stars if possible. Great service, food was piping hot when we picked it up and still hot and fresh when we got home. The flavor exceeded my standard and I will definitely be going back. We splurged because it was Christmas and spent about 100 for two people but we will be eating for days if not the entire week with that. 10/10 experience, thank you Li Hing Restaurant!!”
