| - This is one of my fav Chinese takeout joints in the 'Burgh. Don't judge, but I'm an Americanized Chinese kinda gal. This place also has an authentic Sichuan menu along with their Americanized menu. I'd really like to try some authentic food, but I'm so freaking addicted to their General Tso's chicken that when it comes time to order, I often can't resist the lure of my ol' reliable. Oh General Tso's, why can't I quit you? Crispy breaded chicken, tangy, sweet, and slightly spicy sauce, a couple of pieces of fresh broccoli thrown in for good measure...General Tso's, you please me so.
I've also had a few other standard "Ameri-Chinese" things from their menu (egg rolls, sweet and sour chicken, broccoli with brown sauce, lo mein, orange chicken, etc. etc.), and all are quite tasty and what you would expect from a quality Chinese takeout place.
I don't live in Squirrel Hill anymore, but when I did, their delivery speed was always stellar. Now I do mostly takeout, and even during their busiest times, they always have my order ready when they say they will.
Bonus points: They let you sub brown rice for white for a small upcharge, which helps trick me into thinking that my meal is not going straight into my arteries (but who are we kidding, it totally is).
Someday I hope to try to some of their more authentic offerings if I can break free from the grip of General Tso.
