Egg Role Street is an unassumingly simple establishment. The menu items are numbered so it's easy to place your order. There are only 2 tables in the establishment. It's small, maybe 10' x 10' dining room. You know, simple.
The food is anything but simple. This place serves the best crab Rangoon I have ever had. Light and flakey, great tasting cream cheese and hand made while you wait. OMG!!!
That's not to mention the egg rolls. Not full of mystery ingredients, again, light and flakey, a little cabbage, carrots, and they didn't last long enough to be dissected. Now...if you like egg rolls, then you probably have seen the Chinese horseradish mustard that is offered with some egg rolls. Let's start with the gross yellow stuff in the clear tear and squeeze pockets, gross! Then there is the stuff you find in many buffets, sometimes hot, sometimes mild, with only one thing in common, it tastes like it has been there since the previous owners vacated the building. And when it's on the buffet it's always hit and miss on the spiciness of it. I like it spicy real spicy, the kind of spiciness that'll open your nasal passages after super glueing them closed. That kind of hot
The hot mustard at Egg Rolll Street is nothing like that, This is handmade by a guy in the back that doesn't speak a lick of English. It's hot, it's very hot. The kind of hot that if you did breathe out your nose it would burn every nose hair you had. But it's thin, thin like milk, kind of like 1% milk. It has a nice "I've not been sitting here all day long waiting for you to come get me" taste to it. It's also thin enough to soak into the egg roll. Once you've bitten an end off, then dip it in the mustard where it now flows inside the roll and gives you an experience like...like...well (substitute your own word that rhymes with spasm). I've never had Chinese mustard like this, I asked for an extra tub of it just to take home without any egg rolls to apply it to. It was so good that I must apologize about writing a quarter of this review about this mustard, but I'm telling you, it's what makes the egg roll...roll.
By the way, the rest of the meal was fantastic also, nothing premade from a reefer truck. Betsy had garlic chicken which was very good, I had Mongolian beef. I've never had Mongolian beef that wasn't drowning in Mongolian beef sauce. It was a pleasant change from the norm. Matter of fact, there wasn't as much Mongolian beef in the meal as I thought there would be. I think this is great because some dishes are so overpowering, having a half a plate of Mongolian beef in front of you is enough to drown out any flavor from any other item on the plate. Really appreciate the adjustment of the portion size so that it does not offset the flavor of the other items that were in the dinner.
We also noticed that the fried rice had very little or no salt added to it. I thought it was an amazing flavor, so often you find that other restaurants cover the rice with so much salt that it's just overwhelming .
I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is the kind of Chinese restaurant we need in Bartlesville.
On to the other stuff. Access to the building would be ADA compliant. There are no public bathrooms in the building at least not that we could see. There isn't really enough room for them so probably best not to have them. There is plenty of parking next to the building. We had a trailer and had no trouble parking.
There are at least two of these egg roll streets near Tulsa this is the one to go to. The other one is not up to the quality. Anyways you need to stop here and try this, make sure you try the egg rolls with the spicy mustard. We'll see...
Read moreEggroll Street in Broken Arrow is hands-down our favorite local place for Chinese takeout. It’s a true family-run restaurant, and you can feel the care they put into everything they do—from the parents to the kids, everyone pitches in and it shows.
The chicken teriyaki is absolutely delicious—tender, flavorful, and always hot and fresh. We’re also big fans of their fried rice. You can customize it however you like, or keep it simple with just egg. Their combo plates are solid and give you a great mix of everything.
Don’t sleep on the fried wontons—they’re crispy and packed with flavor. The egg drop soup is another winner, especially on chilly days or when you want something warm and comforting.
They also do a great job with kids’ meals. Ours love the sweet-and-sour chicken and eggrolls combo—it’s the perfect size and always a hit.
I’ve seen some negative reviews out there, but honestly, this place deserves way more love. It’s clean, consistent, and run by a hard-working family that truly cares about their food and their customers. Open to picky requests.
Give it a try—you might just find your new favorite...
Read moreThis is a drive thru Chinese restaurant. To be considered a "fast food" and take out only type of restaurant, they have some of the best Chinese food I've found locally in the entire Tulsa area. To me, the food is better than the "sit down" Chinese restaurants around the area.
This is definitely my go-to place when I get to craving Chinese food. They prepare your food as you order it, so it's fresh, and they are fast getting you your order, and the people there are very courteous and always greet you with smiles . I really love this little place. I always order the sweet & sour chicken, with the fried rice.. then extra on the side, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the little bite sized MINI EGGROLLS ... they are crunchy and absolutely delicious and satisfying. But they are on the kids menu, but they will sell them individually for .40cents each, and comes with the red sweet sour sauce to dip it in (or whatever other sauce you may like, they will accommodate to your taste and liking).
If you haven't already, try out this little place when you're wanting some Chinese take-out. I think you'll love it, just...
