My April's Chinese Restaurant Review While April's may be a hole in the wall, the food is absolutely phenomenal. I've been wanting to try this place for a long time, and I'm so glad I finally did. I will 100% be back, even if the building itself needs some serious love. Here's a breakdown of my experience: * Customer Service: 1 Star The service here is top-notch. Every single employee, from the cashier to the waiters, was incredibly friendly and attentive. They made our visit a pleasure. I would rate the service 10/10. * Pricing: 1 Star The prices are unbelievably affordable for the quality and portion sizes you get. The food is so good that I honestly think they could charge more to help upgrade their facilities. They'd still be a great value. I would rate the pricing 10/10. * Cleanliness: Lost 1 Star This is where the restaurant falls short. The facility looks very run-down, and honestly, it felt pretty dirty and unappetizing. While the food is amazing, the dining area desperately needs a deep clean and an upgrade. I also noticed the restroom was right by the seating area, which isn't ideal. I would rate the cleanliness 1/10. * Food: 1 Star The food itself was fantastic, earning one full star from me! I have zero complaints about the quality and flavor of most of the dishes. * General Tso's Chicken: 10/10 — The best I've ever had. The chicken was cooked perfectly with a crunchy breading, and it was packed with flavor all the way through. * Fried Rice: 10/10 — Excellent flavor and packed with fresh vegetables. * Cheese Rangoons: 1/10 — Unfortunately, these were a big letdown. They tasted strongly of old fryer oil, and it was clear they weren't sealed correctly, as the oil seeped inside. * Egg Rolls: 8/10 — These were much better than the rangoons. They had great flavor inside, and I didn't taste any dirty oil. * Egg Drop Soup: 10/10 — Absolutely delicious! It was so rich and flavorful. * Beef & Broccoli: 10/10 — The beef had an amazing texture, which can be rare at some Chinese restaurants. It wasn't chewy at all, and the vegetables and sauce were perfect. * Convenience: 1 Star April's is incredibly fast, perfect for a quick lunch break. My soup came out in minutes, and our main dishes followed in less than five. The food was piping hot, and their drive-thru option is super convenient. I would rate the convenience 10/10.

Update Been years since Ive ate here, decided to try the Crispy Orange Beef, it was decent, kinda over the top on the orange flavor, too much orange peel for me, giving it a bitter flavor, had to start digging the chunks of orange out.. We also ordered the tempura shrimp, which was pretty good. Nothing overly amazing this meal, but the prices compared to other places now made it a good deal. If anything I would return just because the food is fair to good, and the prices are below average at the moment. Service was good, food came out quick, everything tasted good. ------------------------------------------------------------- First time dining here. Service was decent, food was decent, prices were fair. Having passed the location many times and a friend saying the food there was decent, we decided to stop in for a meal. I ordered the General Chicken, the portion size was more than enough. Time to get our order was decent, about 10 minutes. The place was pretty busy with people coming in to pick up orders, and it seems to be the neighborhood Chinese restaurant getting business from surrounding neighborhoods and the downtown area. I would consider visiting again, maybe during lunch to try some other plates, but even though it wasn't disappointing, but at the same time the General Chicken wasn't impressive enough to bring me back. Service: 4/5 Food Quality: 4/5 Location: 3/5 Price: 4/5 Selection: 4/5

Don't spend money you don't have...is what my fortune said lol...well I had it and just had to have it.... April's is so delicious...we eat her at least three times a month. A wide variety to choose from. Most Chinese restaurants don't have what this restaurant has...which is consistency...everytime we order it always hot n fresh n delicious and the food always has that crispy crunchy taste on the items like, egg rolls, chicken or pork, basically anything fried... We had delicious pot stickers, lemon chicken plate, fried shrimp plate, orange chicken lo mein and the happy family. The happy family had shrimp, beef and grilled chicken in a savory sauce. Total for family of five $47...we handed a fifty and said keep the change. Then gave us a handful of fortune cookies...two items I need with my Chinese food are chop sticks and fortune cookies...thanks again and see you soon.

BEWARE of this Aprils Kitchen restaurant!!!! Due to my experience with this restaurant I had, I believe this Aprils kitchen restaurant reuse’s the “wrong order” dishes & mixes them back in with the food in the kitchen to not waste it which is disgusting!!! I ordered a sweet & sour shrimp dish & instead they gave me a com pow shrimp dish that only came with 6 shrimps & of course I ate 2 to try the “spicy dish” before I assumed that it was not my sweet & sour shrimp dish I ordered. When I returned to Aprils kitchen restaurant to return the wrong order for my right order they accused me of eating all the shrimps & that they asked me several times to confirm the order which is not true but false because they didn’t ask me anything!! Also they accused me of scamming them for food! First of all the portions are tiny!! There’s far better Chinese restaurants out there! Also, I believe they have chickens 🐓 locked up in the shed!! BAD FOOD!! I was in disbelief and very disappointed in the way that the employee & the manager/owner of the restaurant treated me & my husband! They insisted we ordered the wrong dish when we clearly know what we ordered! Especially since we have never ordered com pow shrimp & we had no idea what type of dish it was. We had to google it and it’s a spicy dish with shrimp & vegetables. It was very spicy & my husband doesn’t eat spicy food! We own our own business and we would never treat a customer like this ever! If you decide to go to this restaurant just beware! After all of the drama they caused we didn’t eat lunch & we were late for our meeting at work! Not worth it! If I could give this restaurant 0 stars I would!! Nothing is unbelievable...

I have been eating here for years and never have I seen this so disgusting and disappointing like are kids and family eat here like super super disgusting and unsanitary I was in the drive threw there speaker is broken so they were going order for order waited there 40 minutes and witnessed a homeless man that was playing in the dumpster that was full of maggots and scratch his butt and go In the back door were the kitchen is like the screen is clear so you can see the workers packing the food and stuff anyway he walks in there and touches there cups and ice machine and was in there for quite a while and not one worker said anything he came out with something to drink in his cup so I call the number cancel my order and tell her and she said she didn’t know anything as she was working in the front but imagine how many times this has happened that he’s allowed to be in there around the food and I told her that is super disgusting and sad that yall allow him in there like I feel bad for homeless people but especially after scratching his butt and playing with the dumpster is a big no no and to be allowed in there will not be returning they should be closed for allowing this like he could have diseases and he’s allowed to be in there by the food is ridiculous and I know this isn’t the first time probably cause he walked in normal workers saw him and said nothing he was touching and knew were stuff was and especially after not being told anything they probably allow this all the time wish my dash...
