China Express

I work in the area and was excited to see a Chinese restaurant in the area. Since I don’t get to eat Chinese very often, I tend to get the same thing every time I go, so I can really only review the one dish. But let me just say that their hunan chicken is great… lots of broccoli, decent pieces of chicken, plenty of sauce. It’s great. The prices are very reasonable for both food and drinks. I wasn’t a huge fan of the eggrolls but those tend to be hit or miss at different restaurants, I think. I’m not a big soda drinker so I typically get a bottle of water when I’m there, but if I’m feeling bad and want something bubbly they have caffeine-​free, diet Coke, which is a rarity!
I’m planning to grab lunch here again one day next week. :)

Ambience is okay, décor is nothing special, but it’s up-​to-​date and relatively modern. Cleanliness was acceptable (not good, but acceptable). Men’s room could have been detail cleaned a little better. Table tops looked clean but had a sticky film on them. Floor was clean.
The food disappointed. It tasted ready-​made, and re-​heated, not cooked-​to-​order like most walk-​up Chinese places. The meat was not tender (overcooked or re-​heated), and some of the veggies had been sitting around too long.
They seem to have sacrificed quality for quickness. I would have rather waited a few minutes and gotten fresher food like at other Chinese walk-​up strip-​mall places.
Self-​serve soda fountain, thin plastic utensils, and free chopsticks (nice round ones, not the flat ones you have break apart).
Prices are good though, same price for lunch and supper. $ 4.95 for a white rice + meat/​veggie combo, plus drink, plus tax.
I was the only dine-​in customer for a late supper, but there was a steady flow of people for carry-​out.
