China Tea Room is exactly what you think it is the normal run of the mills chinese take out restaurant.
The space isn't big but they have seating for about 20 customers. On my visit I did take out. I wanted Asian food and was open to trying a new place plus I had a coupon for $2 off an order of $15 after 4pm.
I used yelp and their website to be able to view their menu. I phoned in an order and they said my order would be ready in 15 minutes.
My order was chicken and broccoli in garlic sauce dinner combination and chicken Lo Mein dinner combination. The great thing about the dinner combo is it comes with pork fried rice and an egg roll. I liked how even the noodle combo came with fried rice.
The ease of ordering and pick up was great. They had a self serve condiment station and plenty of to go menus to grab for future reference.
Now the most important thing the taste. Let's just say I wasn't over impressed or under impressed. It was my normal expectation for Chinese take out. You get what you pay for and I didn't pay for exquisite flavor. My chicken wasn't too spicy but the garlic flavor didn't shine thru. The fried rice was bland and the egg was just ok. My nephew ate his Lo Mein with no complaints.
This will probably be my first and last time at China Tea Room.
