"The chicken fried rice is always perfect! Such large portions it's worth the price. So delicious "
"This was the worst preparation for Chinese eggplant. When I overpay for the eggplant at Hoshun in New Orleans, I know I'm getting as close to an authentic street plate I would receive in Donguan, CN vs the TV dinner / M. R. E. version at PF Changs. The only thing you could taste in the Lo Mein was pure sodium. Just salt. Nasty. "

"The Hummus was very good, well seasoned, the salad and dressing was fresh and bright and acidic, and the Gyro Sandwich had plenty of meat, each bite was full of it, itt could've had more tzatziki sauce for my liking, and I'm not a super big fan of the chunks of fully raw purple onion but I can see why someone would like that. and I found myself enjoying it mor than I expected. The meat is clearly more lamb than beef which means the value is great, and it's flavor was delightful, herbaceous and succulent. And the price is excellent. I can only think of one or two places I've had a better Gyro from. "
"This has been a long-time favorite of mine, but tonight it seems like things have changed a little. I'm wondering if it's because DoorDash gets orders from the express location and not the restaurant on Corporate. The halloumi was way over cooked and shriveled and the eggplant Moussaka barely had any eggplant in it. It was mostly all bell pepper and onions. I get that restaurants can have bad nights, so I will certainly try again, but if continues, will try elsewhere. The food was all packaged with care, which I appreciate."
