This place deserves 3.5 stars but since I got coupons in the mail, China One gets the 0.5 star boost.
I live around the corner from the place so whenever I crave Chinese food, this is the only place I go. And let me mention that I've only ordered to-go, although they do have ~5 tables for patrons to eat there.
To-go service is so speedy! Order by phone or just sit and wait for the food - either is fine & quick.
FOOD: (they give a carton of rice--plenty--per each entree dish ordered)
- shrimp with vegetables: felt like there were more vegetables than shrimp, or at least the to-go box was PACKED with veggies on the top with a layer of peanuts on top of that. Had to dig down to find a shrimp. This dish wasn't anything special.
- walnut shrimp: good, typical, no complaints with it
- general chicken: it is actually a LITTLE bit spicy reflecting that chili pepper next to the dish. You know how sometimes places like to put those chilis next to spicy dishes when in reality they aren't?! Well this place is somewhat accurate.
Had a coupon for free 12 fried chicken wonton for spending $20. They were SO GOOD! Warm, crispy outside with a hearty nugget of chicken inside. This whole side could have been my meal.
BOTTOM LINE: decent Chinese food, they cook/prepare the food quick if you order to-go, try to get some coupons!
