Hunan House — Restaurant in Palmerton

While on a road trip, we stopped in Palmerton, PA, looking for a quick lunch and stumbled upon Hunan House — and I’m so glad we did. This local, family-owned American Chinese restaurant exceeded expectations in every way.

From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean, and they were happy to accommodate dietary needs without any hesitation, which I really appreciated.

The food? Honestly, some of the best Chinese takeout I’ve ever had. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions — and the prices were very reasonable too.

I hope they (owners) see and realize this and work towards a solution. But I suspect this is a norm here since my coworker warned me it’s subpar as well. But with my life experience in consuming so much Americanized Chinese food I had to try it.

Pork fried rice with wings are my go to usual. Rice was mushy and overcooked, lacked flavor, very bland. Same with wings also bland. Cashier’s poor attitude, not sure if it’s norm here as it’s my first time but...
