| - I'm from the 626 in Cali, and that's pretty much the real chinatown of LA sooooo instead of giving it 2 stars I'll bump it to 3. It's really everything you'd want in a stereotypical chinese joint...the smell of cooked oil right when you walk in, down to the mediocre service from the awkward employees. They came by really early to see if we wanted to order, but had a lot of trouble helping us with recommendations or even what we wanted when we were finally ready...it was like they really didn't want to talk to us. Which maybe they didn't lol.
Anyway, food-wise, also very stereotypical...ultra greasy string beans, they were glistening under the lights and the oil pooled on the bottom of the plate. Flavor wise was okay though, and they didn't give a whole lot of veggies for the price. Crispy noodle dish was okay, not too much to say on that one...not bad, but definitely not great. We also ordered the salty fish seafood fried rice, which I liked the most. Very separated rice, not the chunky texture that sticks to each other, so depending how you like your fried rice could be good or bad. Lots of extra salty fish, which I thought made the dish a wee bit too salty, but the rest was not too bad.
Overall, it's eh. Carb dishes are the go to...hangover food, right?
