I decided to really pig out here. This is how everything I ordered ranks up against all other Chinese food I've had in Texas, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, and NYC.
Chicken Lo mein: 9.5/10 Honestly it is the best I've had. I liked that they used thick noodles, and it wasn't too greasy. The flavors all blended together beautifully.
Corn Nuggets: 9/10 Delicious. If anything, they may be a little too sweet. (But I tend to prefer less sweet than other people do.)
Steamed Dumplings: 8/10 Pretty freaking good, and I'm not even a big dumplings fan.
Egg Drop Soup: 5/10 it was good but not particularly impressive. No crispy noodles, in case you were wondering. My toddler loved it though.
Egg Rolls: 6/10 They are crispy on the outside and really soft/mushy on the inside (which is not my preference). If you like that, however, then these may be the best you've had, because they are still very good. The sweet and sour sauce gets a 10/10! I had to stop myself from eating it straight. It has a genuine flavor (it isn't syrupy like some sweet and sour sauces) and it wasn't too sweet.
Fried Avacado: 8/10 Basically, half an Avacado heated up with crab and orange sauce. Carrots were there as a garnish.
Chicken Nuggets: 8/10 I wouldn't ruin my diet for them, but they are quite good! :) they are fried the same way most Chinese restaurants fry their chicken (not like the way McDonald's or Wendy's would do it)
French Fries: 4.5/10 A little floppy and not salted or seasoned.
Fortune Cookies: 10/10 The fortunes were cute and the cookie was good!
Thank you guys!
(Gotta say, some of the guys who worked there were pretty cute... Ladies, be ready.
Also... would love it if you started offering fried...
Read moreI’ve been coming here since I moved here, and I have always enjoyed it. The prices are great, the food is delicious, the portions are huge, and both the to-go and in-store experiences have been just fine. That is until today. Today, I found a piece of metal in my food. This was a sharp piece of metal, too. How did I find it? Because I was stabbed in the tongue and the inside of my cheek, and I had to pick it out.
However, I think the worst part was not just that I was violated by metal scraps, but rather how they treated the situation. At first it was fine, they remade the food even though they were a bit awkward about it, and it was delicious. However, no one approached me or even offered so much as an apology, and I suspected that the manager hadn’t been told. When we asked about this, and if they were going to do anything, we found out the truth: they hadn’t. Eventually, the owner came over and was a bit appalled at offering us free food, telling me that he had “remade the food.” As if I’m going to keep eating from a plate that had demonstrated to have metal in it. He did finally concede to offering a free meal, but he didn’t want to, and the waiter wasn’t having any of it, either.
So, all-in-all I doubt I will ever come here, again. A shame, because the food is good when it’s metal-free, but the combined customer service and metal threat is not worth it.
Update: true to my word, I never went back. I no longer live in Kyle, so there’s no chance I shall ever risk my mouth here. I really didn’t want free food, I just wanted some acknowledgment of the severity of their transgressions. They refused to give even something...
Read moreThis used to be my family's favorite place to eat. We'd eat in or order it to go several times a month. January 6 2019, the short, bald manager and a young waitress provided us with the most horrible experience in a restaurant, EVER! First I was told the chicken and vegetables that came with lo mein noodles is really chicken and carrots and if I wanted other vegetables it would be $2 more. This took more than 5 minutes with the waitress going back and forth because she wasn't sure about anything. The waitress asked my daughter what kind of soup she wanted and my daughter said she didn't want soup. We ate and no one came to give us refills and there were only 4-5 parties so it wasn't busy. The bill came and I noticed we were overcharged. The manager said my daughter said no soup so she got dinner plate?! My son who ordered the same thing didn't get asked if he wanted soup but was still charged for dinner?! I was told I ordered from front of menu so mine was dinner too?! The manager only made excuses...it was busy but I pointed out the few parties in the restaurant. I told him the waitress should've informed us if we don't have soup we'll be charged for dinner. Then he went to cash register and he and young guy started talking about all the customers including us. Overpriced, horrible service and if you're in a booth look up and you'll probably eat covering your food after you see all the dust! We will NEVER eat here again. A great restaurant has great food, great service and reasonable prices...this place has decent food but with horrible service and being overcharged I'd rather eat at Panda Express across...
