| - Our office ordered our staff lunch from here. We all ordered off the lunch menu, getting a variety of dishes including chicken, beef, shrimp, fried rice, and egg rolls.
I got the Kung Pao Shrimp with egg rolls. Let's begin with the good. The portion was enough for two meals, although not listed on their online menu, three lunch favorites comes with a salad with lime vinaigrette. The manager warmly greeted us and thanked us for our patronage. The service was prompt and friendly.
However, for $11.95 it was a disappointment. My dish, while it contained dried chilies, it served as mere decoration rather than help accentuate the dish. There was no heat, not even a kick of spiciness. The shrimp was over-battered and made the coating spongy instead of crispy. There was maybe 5 slivers of celery. The shrimp was not large, maybe 51/60 count. The egg roll could have been great for if it was not dripping in oil. The salad was made up of your typical iceberg mix, and seemed to be a little over ripe.
For the price, I could think of many other treasured hole-in-the-wall, mom and pop, take-out places I'd rather get Chinese.
