I cannot praise this restaurant enough. For the last 2 months I have eaten here at least once or twice a week. I have had their... lunch buffet several times, even though I am not a buffet style fan, I have enjoyed this buffet. I think it is the perfectoption if you are unsure what you want or want to try multiple things. The food has been fresh and delicious. They cook insmaller quantities than you normally encounter at buffet style restaurants, so less food waste and the food isn't lingering forlong periods of time. I love to order off the menu, which is what I usually do. Everything I have has been excellent. Theportions are large enough for me to have two meals. I typically order an appetizer and an main dish. I feel like thisrestaurant has the best shrimp rolls, dumplings, and chicken on a stick I have had in this area. The hot and sour soup is alsoextremely good. The Kung pao and szechuan dishes are exceptionally good. While I am used to there being more mala (spicynumbing hot) the flavor of the sauce is balanced and delicious. I have yet to have something with too much sugar in the sauce, aproblem I have noticed with a lot of Chinese American restaurants. I very highly recommend this restaurant. I would warn thatthis is not a fast food restaurant, so have some patience. The food is more than worth the wait. Read more

Wife called in an order for small wonton & sweet&sour soups, with two spring rolls. When we picked it up, they gave our order to... a Deputy; it took 30 min to replace it. She said it was delicious. If you have the time, give 'em a try! Read more

The food is great always fresh and hot made to order kind service???????? and for this i am greatful! Thank you... #OrientalExpress! Only one issue i have had to put a negative on and this being their tastly Pepper Steak. Always a fam favuntill. Apx 6,8 no back The recipe was made completly different in every way possible. no back The beef in this dish went fromchunky slices to schreaded paper thin something it didn't taste normal nor appear normal in tast or smell. Perhaps it was areplacement due to the their offering supplies may had been out of the 'original' recipe supplys for the order this(its amystery that I don't know) but the second time I ordered it and the third time it was still like shredded paper so I never beenmy favorite this again ?. I did bring it up to their attention via phone conversation and they the owner were kind with themanagement kindly replace one meal with a different meal but even so I'm not sure anyone understood the issue. So unfortunatlyfor myself I no longer order this dish anymore for fear having of the orig is nolonger. Aside from this i truely enjoyed theirfood! Read more

You do get a lot for your money, but I ordered Gen Tso chicken and black pepper chicken. They were exactly the same except... grilled bell pepper and onion in pepper chicken. They both look and taste the same! Black pepper chicken is not supposed to bebreaded nor sweet. The egg rolls were old and hard. Lo mein was mushy. Food not at all what I was expecting Read more

Fast, friendly service and convenient location. We had Fried Dumplings, Sesame Chicken and Combination Lo Mein. They were all... tasty, but the Lo Mein was amazing! Enough food for 4 people. Read more
