Rice Bowl - Columbus

Overall, I was quite disappointed! A few years back, this place was excellent! As someone who grew up on the South Side and now lives in Reynoldsburg, I’ve seen things change. However, I do still enjoy the Chinese Lantern in Reynoldsburg.

I ordered takeout and was really impressed with the generous portion size for lunch. The food was hot and delicious. It seems that COVID has impacted this place, but if you're craving Chinese food, you should definitely check it out. They've been in business for a long time, and after years of not visiting, the food was just as good as I remembered. Let's support our great local restaurants!

The food here is severely overpriced and has an unpleasant aftertaste. The receptionist was quite rude, although an older Chinese woman wearing an apron did greet me with a wave. I'm really hoping this food doesn't make me sick—definitely say a prayer before eating! The meal left a bad taste, almost like I could taste the pot it was cooked in, which was just unappetizing. I only ate it because I was hungry, but I won’t be coming back. They charged me $18 for a meal that should cost about $8. The sesame chicken looked nothing like what was shown in the pictures. That aftertaste is quite something... I can really taste the pot it was cooked in. I'm feeling nauseous just thinking about it.

Best Chinese food ever! Been eating here 35 years. Egg Rolls are highly recommended with their house made sweet/sour sauce. Chicken Fried Rice is the best I’ve ever had complimented with their beef lo mein. Always fresh and hot. Awesome family owned business!!!

Although the dining room was closed when I came, I ordered carry out and ate when I got home. The food was good and plentiful. They served it within 6-7 mins. I'll be back again sometime soon. Thanks
