  Let me start by saying the prices are inexpensive, and this place seems geared totally towards take-out, with only a few tables in the 'dining area'. Even if you elect to dine in, your food is served in foam take-out containers, and drinks are limited to the selection of bottles in the cooler. However, the bottle of coke I received was only two days from expiration. The food portions were decent, very similar to eating at the food court at a mall. However, the food quality was not good at all - the General Tso's chicken was bland, and the broccoli was frozen, not completely thawed and inedible. The water chestnuts were crunchy and under cooked, and the chicken was mostly tasteless, except the parts that had some of the sauce on them. The sauce was also surprisingly bland - it was a bit sweet, but had none of the "kick" that it should have. The Mongolian beef was similarly bland, except for a strong, off-putting citrus-like taste that was very out of place.
  It is not often I get lunch for two for $15, and even rarer that I feel that I got the short end of the deal. Unfortunately, this is one of those times. With the abundant selection of Chinese restaurants in the area, pay a few dollars more and get something edible at a different place.
