China Fun — Restaurant in Saint Petersburg

MENU: 4 stars. Not much bad to say about China Fun. I like the food I get every time I order, and it's always the same thing: chicken wings with pork fried rice. I can't say too much about other items, but what I get is typically delicious. It holds to the standard of just about every Chinese place I've eaten at.

MOOD: 4 stars. Again, it meets the standard of everywhere else. There are a few tables to sit and eat. Nothing overly special but at least it doesn't take away from the overall atmosphere like some more, ahem, authentic places.

LOCATION: 4 stars. Run-of-the-mill stuff (I know, I know, sorry). It's in a shopping plaza with good parking and easily discernible once in the plaza.

STAFF: 4 stars. Noticing a trend? The cashier takes my order, gets my food, and accepts my payment. She's nice, which isn't automatically the standard at many Asian restaurants, and doesn't appear to hate her life, so kudos on that.

VERDICT: 4 stars for doing things the way they should be done. I don't even know what the best Chinese food would taste like, as they're all very similar to me, but I know what awful Chinese food tastes like, and China Fun isn't that. So I'll be back a couple times a month, and...

The guy who answered the phone sounded annoyed that I'd called to place an order. There were no thank yous or any sort of pleasantry except from me. Again, when I arrived to pick up my order he was a step away from rude, like I was bothering him. He responded to my thank yous and have a good evening with grunts and mumbles. Service sucks, but the nice lady who was cooking called out to me as I left and smiled and waved. This guy should be taking out the trash and cleaning the kitchen, not waiting on customers. He has the personality of a cardboard box. --The fried food was extremely greasy and taste was mediocre --the entree was merely ok. I had to add way too much soy sauce just to have some flavor. This wasnt the worst chinese food Ive had, but they boast NY style and I am from NY. I think this is a misrepresentation. 5 out of 10. This was my first time here... and my last...

Bland...bland .... bland. Dumplings are chewy and seem under steamed. Fried rice had barely a variety of vegetables in it - and yes I know a basic fried rice comes with some onions carrots and peas- but I asked for extra just in case annnndd I received even less vegetables lol?. Not even their own soy sauce packets could save such a sad meal. I gave up and desperately searched my kitchen for anything seasoning that could bring it to life so after doing so, i'll give it a 3/10 . Now on to the won ton soup.. Yes I know it is cheap but it is supposed to be light, refreshing, and flavorful. The dough should not be so chewy and the broth should not taste like water. The soup lacked any garnishes or any level of flavor outside of what could be a 99 cent soup cup at a gas station. Please... just go somewhere else. Save yourself the trouble because you'll find better at a...
