Restaurant review
How can there be 3 similar restaurants in the mall food court? I was faced with this dilemma while wanting to make a meal while at the mall. This is the first of the asian restaurants including Panda express and Sarku. I ended up with this choice to vary up the selection and because they had a 3 entree meal with 12 oz soda for 8 bucks. There was no line at this location. Unlike the other review, they have a home made sign indicating no MSG. I was foolish enough to get 3 different chicken dishes. The kato chicken, bourbon chicken, and some sort of orange chicken. My side was noodles, but you can go with fried rice as well. First of all there is no MSG in the meal, but it is lathered in soy sauce. Somehow all of the chicken tasted the same and I would say the best would be the orange chicken which did not have soy sauce on it. I was surprised to find a sliver of bone in the chicken piece as well. The drink itself is also super dinky at 12 oz and a lot less once you subtract out the ice. This is neither healthy nor tasty, but if you like large portions than you won't go wrong.
Pros: large portion, 3 course combo + side (rice or noodle) + drink for 8 dollar
Cons: Drenched in soy sauce, salty, all of it tasted about the same
Hidden deals: The above combo will get you enough food really for 2 people
Health code rating: D, I kind of guess this would not be a very clean restaurant. Just check out the health reviews for violations http://champaign.il.gegov.com/champaign/estab.cfm?facilityID=1162
