I gave no idea who is giving this lots of stars, this is not chinese food, and not cooked by any asian from any asian country. I lived in Chinatown in San Francisco with 80 authentic chinese food i suspect due to the decor, no buddha anywhere just cats, whuch are barely chinese and more Mexico, this is a mexican resturant which is fine if you can cook. The food is not using flavors easily purchased all over Layton, rice should never be that dark it was as dark as spanish rice, triple the soy sauce, no greens at all, no xio wine, no real flavors, and the egg rolls are horrible they should have copied Natasha cooks on you tube for egg rolls an Ukrainian cook is better than these frozen ones dhe who dies it 100 times better, and cheap. Plus sweet and sour chicken should not be floating in and the sauce should be seperate or much thicker you know a little bit of corn starch, and speaking of that cubed dry chicken not coated and fried on corn starch is a basic chinese recipe, the sauce has to be out uf a bottle its not real stuff its like water, and sweet and sour has large chopped onions and peppers and authentic would have pineapple. These are not Chinese or any asian recipes, the rice was definitely not made three days ago and cooled like every chinese restaurant does. I suspect its owned by someone who has never tasted real chinese american food, why theyre cooking bottled sauce, premade egg rolls, dried cubed chichen with no crunchy batter, i also suspect because utah has a horrible chinese profile, this place will be around until they find better places that are all around the mexican girl at the front was nice, but made sure the kitchen curtain had no openings to see the back while she poured soda out of a can into a earth killing plastic cup. I would not recommend ever, they are not doing it even close and its exspensive for bad when good allows price changes. I see you jacking up all your 2 star reviews, your resturant is dead all fue to recipes you just dont get, its a profile you dont know, ive been cooking...
Read moreThis part of my review is generous. Don't bother ordering online or over the phone. Better to just dine in. Apparently under new management. I want the other ppl back.
I called in my order, noticed it was a different person from the norm. Asked about the difference between Entree and combo because the Entree is a dollar more and she says you get more main dish with the Entree. I said I'll take the sesame with fried rice entree, beef mushroom combo and general tso combo. The combo comes with soup and egg roll or shrimp. I get my food, the general tso and sesame are in white containers with the same amount and the beef is swimming in sauce with no rice. When I called too say im headed back to pick up my rice and explain the portion of sesame "entree" she said it should be fine. Okay well for a dollar less I could've ordered a combo. Then she says they have a new cook and she didn't double check. It doesn't matter lady. Y'all give the same amount of food but charge different prices. Sesame and rice $10.50 is same sesame portion as sesame combo at $9. Just get combos or dine in. Never order take out or delivery. You'll get cold and missing food items.
Edit: because fried rice was hard and food was extremely salty. Big pieces of chicken weren't cooked all the the way. Cream cheese wontons cold. I gave 2 stars at first. Now I wish zero stars....
Read moreUgh....what happened?! Looks like they sold the business.
If you've been going here long term, DO NOT expect the same quality of food from whoever owns the business now.
The sweet and sour chicken is similar to breaded, frozen food section chicken chunks drenched in sauce, but tastes worse.
It's no longer those chicken cutlets, cut into strips and lightly battered.
The Pot stickers are NOT handmade and stuffed plump with pork anymore, again... like they bought frozen pre-made.
And the shrimps are not large and butterflied like they were, they're now super tiny.
The only thing okay, was the egg drop soup.
The fried rice doesn't hit the same as the original.
Unfortunately, this restaurant isn't the same now, pass on it, especially if you're going and expecting what the food use to be.
I can spend $40 for 2 people at the buffets and they have better food than whatever...
