Asian Tea House — Restaurant in Town of East Greenbush

This was an order placed through Door Dash, it was EXTREMELY quick and I give both parties credit. It arrived hot and fast... but that's where the compliments end.

My partner had Moo Goo Gai Pan. It tasted old. Hot, but old. It had a gluey, slimy consistency. Flavor was ok but the texture was substandard.

I ordered the General Tso's Chicken. If you are a big fan of this dish (like me) and have not ordered it here before, I will tell you: it is NOT General Tso's Chicken. The sauce, which typically has a salty-slightly spicy-sweet soy sauce and garlic flavor tasted like a cross between a curry sauce and a cheap barbecue sauce.

I did not totally hate it but I did not love it. At all. Edible, but this is not the correct preparation and recipe most Asian restaurants use. I absolutely do NOT recommend this dish. It's just flat out incorrect in its execution.

Pork fried rice was bland. Crab Rangoon were pretty small and chintzy for the price point. The egg rolls were not bad, they met standard.

I wouldn't order from here a...

Their food made me sick.

I was still making trips to the restroom a day later.

I ordered Shrimp Egg Foo Young and it arrived via UberEats with some kind of mystery red sauce that tasted like stale ketchup. Not the traditional mushroom gravy that is generally served with Egg Foo Young.

So basically they don't know how to make Egg Foo Young. Like, at all!

Frankly, the mystery dish that they sent was inedible. I had to appeal to UberEats to issue me a refund - which they quickly did after viewing the photos that I sent them (see attached) along with an apology.

A whole day afterwards, I was still making restroom trips - my entire intestinal tract was just purging itself out of some kind of the most dramatic display of anger and discomfort.

A whole day later. I paid...

It's OK, treat it like a fast food place that is a lot more expensive. Clearly the majority of the menu is frozen bulk purchased items. It's a panoply of Asiatic foods, punctuated with great sushi. So this is less an Asian restaurant, and more a sushi place with a ton of fryer foods in the freezer. Quality is as expected on regular food items, the freshly made items were generally good, though my salad both times was a but wilted and the dressing too much carrot and not enough ginger and seasoning.

Overall a fair lunch experience, there's a lot worse to be had. And frozen premade or not, the fryer items they stock are good quality compared to...
