"Has anyone else experienced throat swelling from MSG in Chinese food? It hit me about 8 hours after I ate. In the middle of the night, I felt like my throat was closing up, and it was hard to breathe. It was a very scary experience. Even 24 hours later, I still feel a lump in my throat. I ordered from Chopsticks near Grant Park, and they seem to use a lot of MSG—be careful. I've had Chinese food many times before without any issues. I've been taking ibuprofen all day to help with the swelling. Next time, I will definitely ask for no MSG, but it’s frustrating because I've never had a problem anywhere else. After eating only a third of my meal, I had a close call with a medical emergency. Thankfully, my son hadn’t touched his food, and we ended up throwing it away. It was a waste of money, but it was better than risking a trip to the hospital."

The woman at the front desk had a poor attitude. We spent over $100, and when we asked her for a napkin, she seemed irritated and threw it on the ground in front of us. It felt like we were bothering her while she was busy watching something on her iPad. There were no other customers around at the time, and she was just sitting on the couch, completely ignoring us.

The waitress made sure to put on gloves to take my money as if I had the Ebola virus you can just feel she was totally disgusted by my presence and didn’t even hand my food placed it on the counter to be sure she didn’t touch me why even sell to the public if you’re so worried about diseases is my question?? She made my food taste horrible before I even opened the bag frfr View menu

This dinner has been in the neighborhood for a while now has had lots changes trhu time but unfortunately as a today their menu dishes are inconsistent , as an example i order a chow mien noodles vegetables they where overcooked but also order a pork potstickers pan fried they were perfect!.... I will continue to supported them but like I said theres a few dishes I can really recommend.

This is the best Chinese food I've ever tasted! I ordered the large shrimp with shrimp fried rice and shrimp egg rolls, along with some extra veggies on the side. The food was delivered hot, which is a big plus. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, just how I like them, and the jumbo egg rolls were absolutely delicious—I really enjoyed every bite. I'm very satisfied, and it was definitely worth the money I spent. Great job! Keep it up; I will be ordering more often.
