Fortune Cookies — Restaurant in Miami Beach

I don't know how it's possible, but this place blew me away in a not so good way. Quite possibly the most disappointing Chinese I've wandered across.

Popped in for dinner take home some Chinese after abusing my feet for the past few days. Ordered up a classic chicken lo mein (dinner with the rice and roll) and some crab cheese ragoons through the impressively thick plexi glass. No knock for that, reminded me of home. The place is tiny and not really meant for eating in which is fine as well. It's fast Chinese, we all know the drill.

The food does not though. The ragoons were, somehow, both hot and stale. Like in some sort of superimposed state of when they were made and 3 weeks from now on my counter. Sticking with the science theme, inside of them hid a few molicules of cream cheese. Dunking them in the surprising amount of sauce that came with them helped I guess. For 8 bucks I'd suggest just dipping the paper money and going to town on that.

The lo mein was also astondingly flavorless. Even pouring soy sauce on it did nothing. Like some sort of taste bud black hole, each bite required me to look back at my takeout to know what I was supposedly eating.

The egg roll was weirdly sweet and had a strange flavor and consistency. It wasnt terrible per se but I wouldn't ask for one.

It seems all of their TLC goes into their ham fried rice which was fantastic! Just order 2 servings of that. They really nailed it.

If you ignore the ragoons (which, if you take nothing else away from this review, you absolutely should and have no one else to blame but yourself now) the price is cheap, food is fast and the quantity is fine. Just hit up that rice and...

Updated Review dated May 15, 2022 (3rd time I reviewed this place)

I must say they improved. The delivery person carries a portable machine around to scan payment that also has apple pay. The food became high in quality and in taste (Fresh).

My ratings changed to 4 stars to be on the safe side. 5 stars was my first review. The lady who answers the phone was very sweet. If the service continues the way it is, 5 stars!

However, I did say that I wouldn't buy here again but they really keep stepping it up after complains.

Crab Rangoons were spoiled and the new lady taking calls doesn’t know any English. Last time I rated this place a 5 star for service and now they lowered their standards. The person who took the call ignored my complaint and hung up on me. I couldn’t been any sweeter in my tone. I was startled.

So here I go with my new review. I WILL NOT ORDER HERE AGAIN. 1 star!

I love the service here. This place is honest and very loyal to their clients. You can say I order here almost everyday. Food is always fresh. Great crab rangoon is delicious and my wonton egg drop soup. If you have a poor experience, please give them another chance. They are good in making...

Called for a takeout, the woman on the phone proceeded to not understand "chicken with broccoli" , she kept saying "Shrimp???", after 3 times to convey "chicken with broccoli" I decided to just walk in and I literally watched her on the phone doing the same exact thing to someone else.. She clearly speeks fine enough english and this is some sort of routine they clearly pull.

all that B.S. Aside I was able to order food after the guy around back came and took my order.

Chicken and broccoli was average, on the salty side, broccoli was frozen in the center and overall it was pretty miserable.

The egg-drop soup was repulsive. ordered steamed dumplings, got burned fried ones that were innocuous at best.

My coca cola was ice cold at least, the waiting room AC was blasting hot air, not even slightly chilled in there.

How the hell is this place in business is the big...
