Foo Sing

I really like this place. Their garlic chicken is the perfect amount of heat (not too hot) and flavor. Only complaint is they have to ease up on the onions! I swear they put an entire onion in every order. Now I order without onion and it’s perfect!

This was my second time ordering takeout from here and it did not disappoint. This is now my favorite Chinese place around the area and an added benefit is the wonderful customer service I’ve received here!

Finally found awesome Chinese in North Olmsted! I usually get Wonton soup and chicken & broccoli. Really flavorful and consistently good every time I order. Pick up orders are ready in about 10 – 15 minutes.
Good service and friendly staff. Super cheap lunch deals too with a good amount of food!

Food was dry and stale. The fried wontons felt like they were prefried and we’re not good… the sauce was nonexistent and I wish I had eaten elsewhere.

If not for an insulting employee at a Chinese restaurant in Rocky River across from Westgate, we might never have discovered Foo Sing.
Being a big fan of Asian foods, I have to say that the dishes we had here at Foo Sing were quite good for the very affordable pricing. Since I prepare some favorite ones myself, I could immediately tell from appearance and taste that all ingredients were especially fresh — as if Foo Sing didn’t begin preparing our order until it was given. (Likely not, since all of these take time — certainly much longer than 15 minutes from start to finished dish.)
CHICKEN CHOW MEIN
Tasted as good as it looked. Although shorter slices would be easier to eat, the bright orange carrots and vivid green celery certainly enhanced the visual. While other places are content serving pale, dull-​looking versions of this dish, Foo Sing succeeds in colorful, enticing presentation. With a perfect balance of both crunchy and tender vegetables, the moist chicken had been carefully prepped and trimmed, with no discernible fat or gristle. Or bone. (Yes, bone. It’s because of those sloppy results elsewhere, that I began preparing Asian dishes myself years ago. But I appreciate having a quick take-​out once in a while to save time.) Somewhat on the mild side for my taste, it was still enjoyable and should please the majority of non-​Asian diners. Too spare an amount of crispy noodles, though. One especially small bag. I’ll ask for extra next time. And it might have been just this particular batch, but more thickening agent would have improved it, since a bit too watery.
ROAST PORK FRIED RICE
Very nicely flavored. Especially liked that no chunks of unappetizing unrendered pork fat or chewy gristle were mixed in. With some other places, I’ve had to sweep through the rice to remove them. The very few small fat cubes present were cooked through — browned and edible. An obviously carefully-​prepped and assembled result, with a generous amount of pork meat, diced carrots, and peas.
VEGETABLE EGG FOO YUNG
Perfectly prepared. Another tasty dish that kitchen staff had clearly taken time and thought in preparation. Mildly-​flavored patties with a mildly-​seasoned brown sauce.
EGG ROLLS
Decent enough. Not the best, but better than most other places we’ve tried. An acceptable 3 stars.
We’d order the Chow Mein, Fried Rice, and Foo Yung again, and would try other ones, too. If Foo Sing can succeed with these likely most popular, frequently-​ordered, less-​complicated dishes, chances are they’ll do a nice enough job with ones having more ingredients or requiring more steps. Among the few of the freshest-​tasting Asian dishes we’ve ever had — and all still flavorful after reheating leftovers 2 days later.

I’m indebted to Princess Bloatus Blossom. Because of her, we’ve found a new go-​to. My phone order went like this:
Friendly, cordial…
«Hi. I’d like to place an order for pickup? I’d like two
egg rolls… one vegetable and one chicken… one
pork fri — «
Sighing, curtly interrupting:
«hmmhh…next time, just say one vegetable egg
roll and one chicken egg roll.»
Huh? Excuse me? Did I just hear that right? Me dumb. Where have I been? Obviously, I missed the news flashes about the latest wording protocol when ordering takeout from restaurant employees who have grandiose opinions of themselves. I gave her the rest of our $ 40+ order, and hung up. Seconds later I pressed the re-​dial and without raising my voice or saying anything insulting, I told her to cancel — that I didn’t want to order anything from anyone as rude as she was. Astonishingly, she lamely, ignorantly, actually began arguing, trying to defend herself, implying I wasn’t clear. Had she apologized, I might not have cancelled. Hung up on the airhead, and called Foo Sing.
In business for decades, that Rocky River spot is now permanently scratched off my list of Chinese dining choices. Not only because of their increasingly disappointing dishes (consistently 4.5−5 stars up until about a dozen years ago) but also their female employees’ «I am superior to you» attitudes. Oblivious about the fundamentals of polite phone etiquette — unlike their amiable male counterparts — their heads have become way too big for their embroidered cheongsams.

Now friendly Vickie at Foo Sing? And other staff at the Foo? All well beyond Manners 101. Smiling, helpful, courteous. The Foo — across from Walmart, on Brookpark — deserves a much bigger slice of that enlarging West Side Asian Stir Fry pie, and more favorable reviews. No absurdly inflated prices here, either. Check them out. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did — and I’m admittedly super-​particular about ingredients, how they’re prepared, and the final results. Especially Asian.

Best Chinese around! The ladies who work there are always lovely and our food is always great.

I got sweet and sour chicken which is the staple dish to many Chinese restaurants. Let me first start of by saying the lady answering the phone was very rude. I wanted to add a eggroll to my bosses meal and she kept saying the meal doesn’t come with that which is why i was trying to add onto the meal. My boss got szechaun chicken and said it was way too spicy and could not eat but a couple of bites. He thought I ordered the wrong meal because he had never seen it prepared the way it was. The chicken in my sweet and sour chicken had a foul taste to it and smelled like dirty old socks that have been worn all day. We all had upset stomachs only after a couple of bites. I would have called back to complain but did not want to deal with the rude lady on the phone again which probably would not have done anything about it. I work for a company that orders a lot of takeout because we are always to busy to leave. We will never order from here again.

Food is good compared to other options in this area. Unfortunately the delivery option is inconsistent. Occasionally they don’t have a driver.

Delicious chinese food. Some of the best I have had. Their new location is super clean and nice inside. The staff is friendly and the prices are great.

Best Chinese takeout in the neighborhood. Friendly and fast service. Ordered Beef Lo Mein combo dinner. Came with the standard fried rice and egg roll. Tasty, very hot and more food than I could finish, for 8 bucks. Not bad.

Clean dining area and attentive service. The lunch prices are outstanding. Full entrée, soup and an egg roll for under $ 5. The food was middle of the road Chinese cuisine. You won’t be disappointed but you likely won’t travel out of your way to come back. If you’re in the mood for Chinese and you’re in the neighborhood this is a solid choice.

Foo sing is an amazing Chinese restaurant. It’s very authentic and unlike other Chinese places is clean and you won’t get sick. The short ribs are to die for. If you ever been to china. lived there or from there this a great place to get to get an authentic meal. I’ve lived in china for two years and this place is the real deal

Foo Sing moved from their old location at Great Northern, to a new spot a quarter mile to the East, 25 102 Brookpark Road, in the plaza front of the Target.
I’ve only been here for lunch, but I like the spot. They have a buffet, which they refresh pretty regularly. Better food, but not as much selection, as the larger buffet at Great Northern. It’s the usual Chinese buffet fare, Kung Pao Chicken, General Tso, Egg Foo Yung, Sweet and Sour and Wonton soups, and so forth. Plus do it yourself self-​serve ice cream for desert.
Nice place for lunch (can’t say about dinner).

SO SO SO GLAD to learn that Foo Sing has re-​opened in a new space. The new location is absolutely beautiful. My husband and I frequented Foo Sing as a dating couple, decades ago, and loved that place. Awesome lunch buffet, and much better than the typical Chinese fast food/​take out. It’s just several notches above the norm in every respect, in my opinion. Love the Singapore Chow Fun, and hub drools every time he thinks about the Mongolian Beef. My 8 year old daughter ordered the egg drop soup (she’s becoming a connoisseur of egg drop soup from different Chinese restaurants), and she said it was the best she had ever eaten. We can’t wait until the sushi bar is open — what a fun new thing that will be to try out! The Murdocks will be frequenting, frequently!

My wife and I have been eating at Foo Sing since 2008 at their Great Northern location next to Bestbuy. We always thought they’ve had the best Hot and Sour soup, along with the entrees we’ve tried. The new location is no disappointment. The food is very fresh and vegetables in the dishes are crunchy and colorful. A couple things I’ve noted at their new location is: their entrees have increased in price, they charge for refills and the portions have gotten smaller. I would still go back considering the staff is very friendly and we’ve never had a bad meal nor have gotten sick. I highly recommend the hot and sour soup, the pepper steak entrée, the vegetable delight and Tso’s chicken.

So Foo Sing closed about three years ago, and we have been waiting at least since November for the re-​opening in the new location in the plaza across from Walmart. Today was opening day and normally I do not look for a lot on the first day a business is open. I am very pleased to report that Foo Sing is back and the food is better than before.
Foo Sing was a typical carry out Chinese restaurant, that tried to increase business by being the third restaurant in the Great Northern Plaza to offer a buffet. The food was OK but nothing to write home about.
The new location has new furniture, and obviously a new cook. The food is fresh and very good. I had the hot and sour soup, which was spiced just right. The egg rolls are served with fresh mustard, and the kung pao chicken is made with fresh vegitables and excellent spiced chicken. The sauce is not a traditional brown sauce
in that it features sweet and ginger notes. I thought it was a nice creative tack.
My wife had the shrimp lo-​mein, with the thin noodles. It had excellent flavor.
Lunch for two was about $ 15.00 for everything, which is a great value for the quality of the food, service and restaurant. Welcome back Foo Sing. New, fresh and better than ever.
