Foodworks IV — Restaurant in Uxbridge

I lived within a stone's throw of Foodworks for several years, so naturally I frequented this place almost every time I craved Chinese takeout. I moved away from Uxbridge years ago, and since I've lived in several towns that carry their own Chinese takeout options (currently living in Providence which has TONS of Chinese takeout options), and from time to time I still find myself craving Foodworks Chinese takeout. They have some of the best (and freshest tasting) fried rice I've ever had.

Although the lady does have an attitude everytime you walk in but if you are lucky enough to get the guy,...

Last time I ordered there, I got general gaus that tasted like it was days old and was more breading than meat. Also got fried rice in the same old-tasting condition. I ordered, it was ready within 10 minutes. Fresh food takes time to cook. This place has definitely gone down hill. The second star I've given is a courtesy for not...
