I've been getting takeout from here for years whenever I'm in the neighborhood. Recently, I ordered a few dishes: Egg Rolls, Beef Teriyaki, and Chicken Wings. The Chicken Wings used to be one of my favorites, but this time they were just okay, lacking some of the rich flavor they once had. The Egg Rolls were quite tasty, not made with a celery base, yet they still had a pleasant flavor. Unfortunately, the Beef Teriyaki was a disappointment; it looked gray and had a mushy coating that was overwhelmingly vinegary. I couldn’t even bring myself to eat it, which is rare for me since I really dislike wasting money.

Instead of crab rangoons, we received a large portion of chicken fingers. Additionally, instead of beef and shrimp lo mein, we got nothing. I am extremely disappointed and will never order from this restaurant again, nor will I recommend it to anyone. If I could, I would cancel the payment. Shame on the entire staff.
