Also, the beef used was pretty basic, but the mixture of scallions, carrots, and onions make the dish a whole lot better. Ok price and portion for Midtown. Curry Chicken 9.25 : A good load of vegetables and chicken, but lacking a little on curry portions. The flavor is alright, kinda has a homemade Chinese dish feel to it. Ok to try, but not that amazing. Green Bean Chicken 9.25 : Decent chicken and green beans, but the flavor didn't really kick in. Wouldn't recommend this dish, but it's ok to try. _____________________________________________ Price Service Prices are pretty average for a Midtown restaurant, but the styrofoam plates they use are a little disappointing. Possibly a decent place to order delivery as the portions and prices are manageable. Delivery service is pretty good, they're fast and usually on time. _____________________________________________ Recommendations: Mongolian Beef, pretty good dish with a homemade type of feel and flavor.

"My husband and I always order takeout from China Paradise when we're craving good food, but we dined in on a Wednesday evening and had such a great experience. Once you walk in you notice that the restaurant is very clean and is decorated very well. It's looks upscale but still feels like home. We managed to grab a table before the rush, but dine ins really poured in behind us, so we got lucky! I'll start with the service because even my husband has a lot to say about it. The woman who was serving the dining tables (I believe she's the owner) is truly so kind. She was fun to chat with, and really helped wind down some tension after a long work day. She was ever ready to get us anything we needed and even packed our to go boxes for us when we were done, which was extra sweet. Now to the food! Sooo tasty! The owner got us started with complimentary wontons and sweet and sour sauce fried so crispy, but not too overwhelming as a small appetizer. Everything we ordered arrived very fresh. We ordered Szechuan chicken, veggie chow mein, and brown rice. This was more than enough food for just the two of us! We have plenty of leftovers. The chow mein had plenty of veggies and the garlic noodles were so good. The chicken dish was everything we expected saucy and full of flavor. The steamed broccoli and onions were delicious! We took a look around at other people's plates while we were leaving and everting looked really good. We have so many options for next time we visit! Can't wait to come back. We had a very good experience here!"
