| - I have grown up eating Autumn Moon. It was a tradition growing up when we would put up a Christmas tree we would watch Dust Til Dawn and get Autumn Moon. This happened several years in a row by accident. But anyways, I love Autumn Moon. We got my 5-year-old niece hooked on it too. I took several friends there to eat and we all love it. My family has dined in and did carry out, we order double meat (extra charge) for carry out. My mom and dad love dining in because they get the delicious hot tea. I get water (how can water be stale? From a previous reviewer), water is water. I learned to love and eat broccoli because of Autumn Moon. Their Chow Mein is delicious, their broccoli, egg rolls dipped in their sweet and sour sauce that comes in the chicken is delicious. My double meat is usually the sweet and sour chicken and the lemon chicken with the lemon sauce (add the sauce to the noodles, so good!). Plus the chips. My niece makes a noodle/chip sandwich and loves their orange chicken as it isn't spicy (like Panda) and she loves it. My mom gets their orange chicken and pepper steak, depending on the bite or who makes the pepper steak it can be okay or it can be spicy.
I have never been sick from Autumn Moon, never had raw food. Never had under cooked food. Everything has been hot and delicious.
My family has eaten their so much they know us there. So, for the people who have gotten sick from it, I don't know why. It isn't the greatest but it's cheap and whether you do the buffet or do carry out, they load up the carton that it's almost overflowing.
The restaurant is quiet, little, it's worn (not really dingy as it's been there for as long as I can remember).
I love it, but I guess to each their own. If you are expecting Panda Express, NO. Sushi? NO. They have a small menu as they are a small place. Rice, chow mein, egg roll, egg fu whatever, lemon chicken, orange chicken, pepper steak, some bbq type thing, sweat and sour pork, and the chips. There might me one or two other's I'm missing but whatever. The soda glasses are just simple regular glass, you get one drink then pay for refills (which is why I get water) but the tea is refillable. The food is not salty, not spicy (except for the occasional pepper steak). This isn't a high class Chinese food place, but a simple small family owned and operated Chinese buffet. One that you would find in a small corner of China Town or downtown China that is a well known secret.
I have never had any complaints, both from family, friends or stomach (I might just have a stronger stomach than many of the reviews). I will continue to eat there for as long as it is there.
