In the future, this China Go Go location looks like it will be a China No Go. I left extremely disappointed.
First, I felt they overcharged me. If the pepper steak lunch special is $6.89 and a Coke is $1.50, how did it end up $9.70? But, why sweat over the small stuff? You live once. However, the big stuff was that the food wasn't good. In all honesty, the Chinese food I eat in a Feast Buffet is better.
A red flag that the quality was lacking here was when the egg drop soup was placed on my table a couple of minutes after sitting down, with the pepper steak immediately after. Please give me time to enjoy the soup. Yeah, the food came fast. But it was lacking in quality and reminded me more of fast food than a good Chinese restaurant.
In recent times I have been to several Chinese restaurants in Las Vegas. I can tell the difference in quality just from the pepper steak. The peppersteak here was lacking in the flavor and ingredients that I have been accustomed to lately in the Chinese restaurants that I have dined in. For example XO Chinese Restaurant down the road and China Wan Wan on Boulder Highway, served me pepper steak that would make me drive out of my way to have it. Here, the pepper steak was lacking flavor and pieces of it had a rubbery taste. Here, the fried rice lacked flavor where down the road XO served some of the finest fried rice that I have had in Las Vegas. And the chow mein noodles that seemed to take up over a third of the styrophone bowl was filler that lacked flavor. It was nothing like the lo mein noodles side that Chop Stix on Mark's Street in Henderson recently served me with far superior pepper steak. Even the chow mein noodles at Panda Express is far better. Finally, the Coke tasted funky and I would pour it out and complement the food with Mr Pibb.
Customer service is also lacking here. I remember the people working in the Locosee Road China Go Go being personable. And the people working in the Alicante Parkway and the Windmill Parkway China Go Go's were nicer workers serving better food.
In the future this China Go Go is a China No Go for at least a year. There are far better Chinese restaurants and better China Go Go's for me to spend my hard earned money.
