Asian Café — Restaurant in Maryland

Been searching for a good Chinese restaurant near Kingsville since i moved into the area, and the Asian Cafe was definitely not it.

Instead, it was some very poor quality food.

The pork fried rice was a real disaster. It was both gummy and dry. Like they overcooked the rice 3 times too long yesterday, than left it to dry out overnight before turning it into pork fried rice today. This was a lower quality product than the cheapest frozen Chinese rice I've ever sampled in my college days. It was too terrible to eat.

I ordered Hunan chicken, a favorite dish of mine, but what i received wasn't Hunan chicken. Hunan chicken shouldn't have yellow onions in it, it should have green onions. Shouldn't have green beans in it either. It should have red bell peppers in it, which this did not. And it should be spicy and taste like Hunan, which again was all missing. The baby corn, too large, dry and crunchy. So I'm not sure what i was served. But if this is your Hunan chicken, probably scrap the whole recipe and start over.

The crab rangoons didn't have crab meat in them. It had a light crab flavor, but seemed to be from crab fluid instead of crab meat. The cream cheese filling was also off, lacked of cream cheese, and was more a processed cheese. Like all fried foods It wasn't disgusting, but it wasn't something i would order again either.

Overall, the quality of the food from this restaurant is poor to below poor. Hopefully this restaurant will re-examine what they are serving. Cutting every corner possible and serving yesterdays food, will not attract customers. Consider putting out a quality fresh product instead, price it reasonably, and people like me will buy from you once or twice a week.

Why is there no reasonably decent Chinese food in this area?? All 5 Chinese restaurants i have visited have been below average. The Asian Cafe so far has been the worse of the lot. Even the best at Bamboo Garden was just meh, its ok. I'll...

Update: I ordered Asian Cafe delivery last night. I was happy with everything I ordered, which included General Tso's chicken and a small vegetable fried rice. I was really impressed with the vegetable fried rice. It included the normal onions, peas, and carrots, but also broccoli, mushrooms, and a few bean sprouts, zucchini cubes, and bamboo shoots. Very impressed with all that variety of veggies.

The General Tso's chicken was everything I hoped it would be, portion sizes were enough to satisfy my large appetite, and pricing was very reasonable. Changed my 4-star review from 2017 to a 5-star.

Old review from 2017: I got the sesame chicken lunch special with fried rice. It was good, but not great. A very inexpensive lunch option at just $6.31. In my opinion, everyone would benefit if Asian Cafe stepped up its quality and raised its prices. I would rather pay a few dollars more and get big chunks of white meat chicken, more vegetables mixed...

So delicious!! I love that they have a diet menu and despite all of my allergies and sensitivities, I have never gotten sick. They have a vegetarian menu—not vegan but I’ll take it. And it would be cool if other celiacs knew that they could count on things being gluten free from the menu—but, again, they have never accidentally given me gluten!! They have wonderful customer service, and I look forward to it every time.

I mostly get vegetable mei fun with no egg and no soy sauce, but it’s not on the menu—I wish it was. If the diet menu showed that things were made with limited oil, then I think that would be helpful. Also it would be wonderful if steamed items cost less if you don’t get brown sauce and that things that are egg free were shown on the menu as egg free. I never really looked at the menu until today, so none of that is necessary, I’m just thinking as a person who has troubles ordering in new places sometimes. Luckily, I already...
