EMW China Bistro Express — Restaurant in Fresno

So minus the homeless man sitting down not ordering anything while one couple actively is eating after I payed for my togo food and tipped I went out front to check on my son. I come in and see two bags. The cashier lady makes eye contact with me and continues to put a bunch of items together for a big order, meanwhile a lady comes in for a door dash order and receives it(two bags still there) 4 minutes go by and she gives the guy the order. Then grabs one of the bags that sat there when I came back in.

It’s not hard to scan your surroundings and be like theres that guy heres your order and on top of that I tipped. I work across the street from you guys with rude customers who come in and order $300 of togo food and not even tip. You weren’t even busy and I literally have one day off a week. You guys need to be more respectful of your guest’s time especially for the one’s who added to the $4 and change you had in your tip jar. Unfortunately my wife’s uncle has my 4 year old hooked to what he calls “candy chicken” so I’m still coming in but not tipping. And I tip every where. Have also unfortunately worked in the food industry for ever and I know the difference between being busy...

The cashier was not very friendly. Asked her for two water cups along with our sodas and she probably didn’t hear me so I went back to ask again (for my kids) and she emphasized “only for water” and proceeded to watch me as I poured the water having already poured my soda in my cup, (I didn’t need anymore soda). So I just said “I’m not gonna steal your soda” cause I was little uncomfortable with her eyes just glaring at me. I then went to ask for two plates and she gave them to me, I forgot to say thank you and she again emphasized “YOUR WELCOME” and again, she forgot to give me forks for my kids so I went again and asked for forks, I reached my hand out to grab them and she was about to hand them to me but took them back and set them on the other side of the counter. I didn’t understand what she was telling the cooks in the back but one came out to just kind of glare at me from the back. On the other note, food was ok it was a pass. I believe she’s the owner of the restaurant from what she told another customer that she didn’t have too much patience...

👍🏻 No chemical MSG! I’ve been coming here for years, more often since Hunan closed. I noticed the reviews complaining about the lack of flavor. Chinese places probably make things more plain for non Asians. They have all sorts of ingredients so GET CREATIVE! Just ask them to add your favorite ingredients. They’ll tweak the menu items for you, of course expect to pay a few dollars extra. Extra ingredients will cost more.

📸 The photo: “Mongolian Beef Chow Mein.” It’s NOT on the menu. I asked them to make a Chow Mein Mongolian beef style w/ some bamboo shoots added.

After I scooped some into a bowl I added some of the black bean in chili oil w/chili flakes. Not shown in photo & I had not mixed it in the photo. The black beans in chili oil are in the timing sauce take away containers. Salty & slightly spicy flavor.
