| - Our Local Chinese Take-Out Go-To
This is the place where we always get our to-go Chinese food. I couldn't tell you how many times we've ordered from here. Having tried most of the other Chinese restaurants in the neighborhood, this is hands-down our favorite. We've yet to have something we didn't like and our order has been correct EVERY single time. Living 10 minutes away, we always pick up because the delivery wait is just too long. Pick-up is usually ready in 10-15 minutes, even though it is always crazy-busy every time we go.
Last night we ordered cheese wontons, fried dumplings, two egg rolls, and a small chicken with mushrooms and snow peas, which we split between two people and ran $22. Some of our other favorites include chicken with broccoli, general tso's chicken, the lo mein, the mein fun,and the subgum pan fried noodles. The only downside is that almost all of the sauces are a brown sauce with no entrees here that I've seen with a lighter sauce like you'd see in a lot of East Coast Chinese.
I wouldn't recommend eating in here - only take-out. Mr. Cooks is in an old Taco Bell and the seating is limited. The owner is surly and I don't think I've ever seen her smile. There is a new employee working every time we go in, but the food is spot on every time.
