As a general rule of thumb I'm pretty lenient on Chinese restaurants, especially the ones with great service. Mostly because I've never been to China and I'm not Chinese so I have never felt I had the authority to articulate why one place is better than the next.
But...I'm going to go ahead and just say this place sucks it. I don't know what it is about the Southwest side of town but it's like there is a vacuum here where decent cheap Chinese food just can't exist.
Here's the BAD:
Fried Rice...doesn't this usually have a few items in it other than rice?
General Tso's chicken...I don't usually order this but i just had a taste for sesame chicken one day, and settled for this.
I think the secret recipe for this dish is sweet and sour sauce and KC masterpiece.
Mongolian beef...This is not supposed to be that spicy and the sauce wasn't even cooked in to the meat. It was like they cooked the meat in the wok for 30 seconds leaving it too tender but also sinewy and the sauce was tossed on as an after thought. Also the whole order was made up of about 9 giant pieces. I felt like I was eating an entire flank steak with chop stix.
Service...Hey guy, can I get a little help?...I can't choke down your crap without a drink refill. And "yes, I WAS done with that crap, but next time ASK to make sure.
The Good(Acceptable):
The lady that works here is an absolute sweetheart.
The lunch specials are a great price and unlike most places you will be full when you leave.
The little kid who sometimes runs to the front door brandishing a transformer, and stares at you as you are leaving.
If you have to eat it (as I sometimes do) get it to go. I'm sure there is something on the menu worth $6-7. So I'll let you all know if I find something.
