The best part about the place is the affordability.
No seriously, if I go anywhere else for a Philly cheesesteak, the sandwich by itself would be 8-10$ but here I can get it along with fries just for 9.49. In most places nearby, it would be like 12-15$ for the samething.
The rest of the menu is just as affordable too!
Other postives are is that the place is genuinely clean, you can see the kitchen from the front and it is also very well kept.
The design of the location fits well for its Chinese culture too, it isnt overdone or flashy. Its simple and nice.
Lastly the food comes out fast and the women at the front is kind and straightforward.
The only negative about this place is 1 thing for me, I think that sandwichs could be better tasting, they aren't terrible in any way but I have tasted better before.
For me they taste just very slightly bland, although I dont like to complain without giving advice. I used to help make sandwichs in the gerrity supermarket in keyser avenue!
Before I say this, I AM NOT telling you how to run your place, just sharing my grilling experience if it can help you. I also know not everyone likes to eat it prepared like this due to issues like allergies, this is just the way I was taught and it tasted amazing.
Tiny bit of oil on grill (to prevent tiny bits of meat getting stuck on grill in any way)
Place the raw meat on grill
Place a little bit of seasoning on the meat
When its soft and brown, chop it up into small pieces
IF any toppings need to be grilled, place on grill at the start, then mix with meat when chopping time.
Once nothing is left raw and all the small pieces are together, place the cheese on top of the meat
Let cheese melt on meat (you can sprinkle water around the meat to make hot steam smoke come up to make it melt faster if you want to make it go faster. You can also use a meal pan and cover it to trap the steam and also make it melt faster, this is not needed unless your trying to make the sandwich super fast using the hot steam)
Put kethup or mayo on bread beforehand, then place meat.
To clarfiy, I AM NOT SAYING all foods are bland, its a Chinese place so when you ask for something like dumplings or rice or etc, they...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreOrdered for the first time yesterday since most of the reviews were positive. I physically went here and ordered to get the full experience. First impression was that it was very clean and empty.(Not necessarily a bad thing since they are fairly new). My daughter and I were greeted by a very friendly woman and she was very helpful. She kept telling us that we wouldn't be disappointed and that everything was super "yummy" which I thought was very cute. She was very nice to my 5 year old and kept calling her cutie and telling her that she was beautiful just like mom. Very nice lady.
As for the food, let's just say it was okay. One thing I noticed was that the food was made very very quickly. Like, too quickly, as in some of the things I ordered were done prior to us arriving when we didn't call ahead. Re warmed possibly?
I forgot to take pictures of our food but we threw out the rest anyway. We got chicken wings, large sweet n sour chicken, pepper steak w onion combo, large white rice, small pork fried rice, 2 cheese steak egg rolls oh and 2 large fries.
The cheesesteak egg rolls were good, chicken wings were decent, sweet n sour chicken was very crunchy and oily and had almost a "sweet" taste inside(without the sauce), white rice was "al dente", pork fried rice was cooked better but lacked flavor, french fries were soft, almost soggy(my kids didn't mind though), and my husband said the pepper steak tasted a bit "off". For all of that it was almost $70. I did give a $10 tip, and that was because the lady sold us. She was very friendly and welcoming and the inside was very clean and upkept. The price was not worth the food however.
Overall, I give it 3 stars total. 2 for the food, 5 stars for the service, 4 for the atmosphere.
I would try to order here again in the future to see if they get better...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreDeep within the bustling heart of our fair city, a new treasure has emergedāa sanctuary of flavor and delight. Drawn by whispers of an otherworldly feast, I embarked on a culinary quest to test my mettle against the fabled delicacies within. What I discovered was nothing short of legendary.
Upon crossing the threshold, I was greeted by a cadre of the finest hospitality magesāsmiling, swift, and ever-attentive. With a flick of the menu, I ordered the legendary General Tsoās Chicken, a dish said to possess the power to awaken even the sleepiest of dragons.
When the platter arrived, I beheld a sight to behold: golden-crimson morsels cloaked in a shimmering glaze, as if kissed by the phoenix itself. With my first bite, I was transported to a realm of flavorāa perfect harmony of sweet, savory, and a whisper of heat that danced upon my tongue like a fire sprite at a midsummer festival. Each piece of chicken was crisp as a dragonās scale on the outside, yet tender as a bardās ballad within.
And lo! The bounty did not come at the cost of a kingās ransom. Nay, the prices were most fair, fit for humble adventurers and high-born nobles alike. A mere handful of coin secured a feast that could satisfy even the most ravenous of orcs after a fortnight's campaign.
Yet the greatest treasure is its staffākind, patient, and as swift as wind sprites. They move with a grace that rivals elven dancers and ensure that no goblet remains empty, no plate unfilled. Such warmth and care are rarer than a dragonās tear in these modern times.
So, heed my words, fellow travelers: if you seek a feast to stir your soul and warm your heart, journey forth. Let the General Tsoās Chicken be your guide, and may your hunger be vanquished in the most delicious of battles!
