Worst Chinese food I have ever had by a Chinese owned and run restaurant EVER. What the hell were their mothers cooking for them when they were kids to think this was passable?
Jenny, Chad, Debra...you're all right. It was my fault for not looking at any of the reviews until I checked in after picking up my order. I actually considered bringing this whole bag back for a refund without trying any of it.
Then the Yelper denial kicked in. I thought "Well...Jenny's review was a few months ago and I ordered different stuff so maybe it will be better.". Everyone is Chinese here so how bad can it be?? OH BABY IT'S BAD!!!
Their "family dinner" special looked so enticing. You get 2 entrees with soup, pork fried rice, 2 egg rolls and crab rangoon for $24.99. That usually means leftovers but it actually meant straight to the garbage can in reality.
Hot and sour soup: I'll give them credit for soup being hot. 1 out of 2! Nice job. I am not sure how they managed to make the soup bland and very oily but they did.
Chicken and broccoli: The quality of the chicken was rubbery. My chihuahuas enjoyed it and gave it 3 out of 5 Yelp stars.
Shrimp and garlic sauce: When was the last time garlic sauce was red and uber-sweet? Eff you, chef.
Pork fried rice: The best of the worst and it still lacked a lot of flavor.
I was in such disbelief that I actually called them to let them know how bad it all was. The person I spoke with said they'd save my phone number and I'd get a free entree the next time I order. HA! Maybe if I were contemplating suicide!
I would advise all of the reviewers that bestowed 5 Yelp stars to Cheng's Express to avoid Chinese restaurants like KJ's, HK Star and Wendy's Noodle unless you've consulted a neurosurgeon first because your brain would EXPLODE if you ate at any of those spots.
