"Awesome food, HUGE portions, and they deliver. Read the whole review:<br/ I ordered my dinner (Hot Sour Soup, Crab Rangoons, and Beef Fried Rice) through their online ordering system at about 7:45PM. I called to check on it at 8:30PM and my order had not gone through. It was a technology error so not a big deal. The lady was very apologetic, took my order, and my food arrived at 9:09PM. Which to me is not bad at all! Next time when I place an online order I will call to confirm or just call in my order, not a big deal at all.<br/ <br/ Food: let me just say that the portions are HUGE! My order came to $18 and I could easily make 3-4 meals out of what I ordered and be completely full every time. The rangoons were very large, the fried rice was packed to the top of the container to the point where it could barely shut, and the soup was flowing over the top of the bowl. Well worth the wait and the price. Overall everything arrived hot and tasted freshly made. Nothing tasted frozen or commerical. All my dishes had a lot of flavor and were made with quality ingredients.<br/ <br/ Crab Rangoons: They arrived still hot and crispy. They came with 2 different sauces to dip in a sweet and sour sauce which was very fresh and had a lot of flavor, and a mustard sauce which I did not try because I hate mustard in all its forms but it did smell very good.<br/ <br/ Hot and Sour Soup: This was very different than that Hot Sour soups that I have had in the past, but it was one of the best that I have ever eaten. It arrived hot (even the crunchy noodles were hot) and had so much flavor! The broth was rich and it really hit the spot after being sick for a few days. <br/ <br/ Beef Fried Rice: I cannot say enough how fresh and good this was. Like my other dishes, it arrived piping hot. The beef was tender and not fatty or chewy at all. I was actually shocked at how good the meat was. Some fried rice can be dry and flavorless, this was very moist and packed with flavor pieces of green onion and egg. It did not taste frozen, greasy, or 'commercial ' at all."
