HALAL Xpress Asian Fusion — Restaurant in New York

I live far from them but I saw their rating and wanted to give their food a try. I ordered ginger chicken asking them to make it less spicy. When food came I could smell the greasy oil in which chicken was battered fried, that was good enough to lose appetite. In one minute my mouth started burning, it was filled with killer red chillies. Mind you, I have eaten spicy food all my life but this kind of chilly they use in food was good enough to kill your stomach and intestines. I called the girl who took my order and threw the food in the garbage in front of her. They gave me chicken with broccoli as a sustitute that was the most tasteless chicken with broccoli I ever ate.

This is a dine in experience. Restaurant is very clean. Ordering easy and cashier guide you with patience. I ordered general tso’s chicken, shrimp, mixed vegetables, chicken wings and buffalo wings.

Note: I have been there many times since the first visit. Same quality, same...

Great, but clearly fried from frozen and $8 for 8 tiny rangoons? The same cost is for 4 wings plus fries. Or a small dish with complimentary rice (fried rice is not good, get the plain). So yeah, overall a huge upgrade from your average American Chinese but still not locked in enough in regard to price or being consistent. Thanks though. I love close and will definitely be back once in a while when the...
