It has been literally years since I have had Chinese food. I have had enough bad experiences that I had shunned them from ingestion. After reading some stellar reviews I decided to break my streak and give the Cherry Inn a try.
I will admit the service is quick and the owners are nice people. BUT the place is kind of dingy and run down and I can't stand a restaurant with carpeting which harbours mould, mildew, fungus, you get the picture.
The food itself was alright for westernized Chinese fare. I hated the gingered beef, I found that it was not crispy enough, too chewy and the sweet to sour ratio was a bit off... and that for leftovers the next day tasted rancid. The beef and broccoli was very good and I loved the beef chow fan noodles, albeit a bit too greasy for my liking, hit the spot for decent Chinese grub. We also tried the chicken with veg and found there was way too much bok choy which I am not a fan of but the dish itself was decent, nothing to rave about.
Would I go to the Cherry Inn again? Maybe, if I have a huge hankering for it I would stick to the food that isn't battered and deep fried, the wok fried versions were way better and were good for leftovers.
