I stopped in for a quick lunch and ordered the Singapore Chow Mei Fun and it was very good. I prefer Rice Noodles over any other kind because my system can handle it better and they a thinner and more palatable.I will return!

My experience with china one was very disappointing. I ordered $50 plus worth of food, which I ordered take out through their website. I got, 2 different combination, it included soups for an additional charge. Some spring roll as well. I got a phone call shortly after, saying that the restaurant does not accept credit card online therefor I will have to pay at the restaurant, which I absolutely did not have an issue with. I arrived at the restaurant and was greeted by a very aggressive male that said I have to pay which I said yes no worries, someone called and told me. He presided to sound irritated as he spoke Chinese to 3 other people. I payed for my food, but ended up waiting 15 more min for it. I realized they didn’t cook it until I actually arrived. They gave my food and when I got to my car I checked the bag, because I noticed it was small for all that I ordered. That was when I noticed that the soups I payed for were not in the bag. I went back and asked about the soups I showed them the receipt from their website showing there was soup included. The same aggressive male, preceded to say no soup included even after I showed the receipt. I was irritated so I just went ahead and say ok could I please order 2 soups then. After getting home, I unpacked everything that was when I noticed which was really the last straw, they made 2 of the exact combination. And that was what really prompt me to write this review. I ordered my food at 8pm and they closed at 9pm and that is the only thing is can think of why they were acting the way they were, and why they didn’t completely make my order. My suggestion this that old man that is just very aggressive and mean needs to not work the front. He gives off a very toxic aura to the environment and I could tell he probably is either the owner or the head chef. To top it all off the food was not good. But it could be because they rushed it or just didn’t care because it was an hour before closing I also suggest to close at 8pm if your quality is going to decrease anyways.

Food is horrible! The chicken chow mein noodles are pastey in texture. The egg young has large slivers of meat instead of small pieces, is very GREASY and soggy.. the gravy for them is very watery. The chicken fried rice is flavorless. I can taste the MSG in it. I’ll try to doctor up the rice tomorrow but everything else is going in the trash. GROSS!We had a similar experience 10 years ago but thought we would support a small business close to us. Never again!

First time in today. I only came in for shrimp chow mein, and I was wonderfully impressed. The store was clean and efficiently stocked, kind and courteous service, food was packed to the brim, amazing job on the actual flavour of the chow mein, and overall just super satisfied with my experience. Totally worth $7.95 and I’ll definitely come back!

I was being nice and gave China one star when they should get no stars!I have given this restaurant three attempts, and out of these three attempts their food was the lowest quality a human being could ever eat!!!! This is by far the worst food my family and I have ever eaten!!!My husband gave them another try! Still serving their worst products at high prices! I dont know what that was, but it wasnt chicken! All rubbery and chewy! I find it gross and disgusting how they serve the lowest quality foods and expect customers to eat and pay their prices!

Always fresh and delicious. Perfectly cook dishes and veggies every time. I always try something different and am very satisfied. Unfortunately you cant always get your item your way but Im okay with that. Great lunch specials

This place used to be awesome. but the quality has really declined in the last few years. Their chicken is rubbery and fatty, the rice is bland and has no flavor, the best thing here is the chow mein, and even that isnt all that great. I would check out the hangout, it has much better food.

Fried rice isnt fried. At least my order wasnt. Meats were undercooked quickly on the wok then combined with cooked rice outside of the wok. I could have done a better job at home with Uncle Bens rice. This was the first and last time I will go to this place.
