As someone who is constantly on the move between Shadyside and Bloomfield during the work week, I am always looking to find a quick, cheap lunch spot. While flipping through yelp, I came across the China House on Liberty Ave. I was less than a mile away and the reviews were good so I decided to give it a try.
First of all, most of the lunch specials are around $5.50 including shrimp dishes and dishes like General Taos's which can sometimes be a little bit more. All of the lunch dishes come with a generous serving of pork fried rice.
I ordered the chicken and broccoli directly from the yelp app. The broccoli had great flavor and wasn't over cooked. The chicken, although a little chewy, was comparable to most other Chinese restaurants around.
Overall, the portion and quality was substantial for $5.72. I will definitely be returning to try some of the other lunch specials.
Ps. Don't forget your fork and napkins!
