Fast delivery. Pretty healthy. Foods can be slightly customized. This is the healthiest, tastiest, and fairly priced food that you can probably ever order. If you prefer to be healthy and are into fitness, ask for reduced oil. The food is very clean.Fresh af ingredients. Like Im pretty sure some came right off the stem instantly and cooked it. Fair prices. The quality and effort put into this food is amazing
I always get the chicken in garlic sauce and my husband usually gets the sweet and sour chicken, then we split a pint of wonton soup. When we moved to East Amherst a few years ago, we had to find a new Chinese restaurant. There was one by Dashs that was really good, but they moved out, had to find a new restaurant and came across Chinese Cookery. They have the best fast food Chinese restaurant wonton soup I ever had. If anyone thinks the soup is bland, Id love to know where they go, because I havent been able to find any that tastes better, and Ive tried a lot of Chinese restaurants. The portions are huge. The rice and sweet and sour chicken we got is not in your normal pint size boxes, they were larger and filled to capacity. Whoever said you get nothing but broccoli stems is crazy. If I could post a photo I would show you large pieces of broccoli florets, plus you get a lot of it and a lot of chicken. We always have enough leftover for the next day, so basically we both get 2 meals each for $20.00. Cant complain about that, plus its delicious! Oh, and the woman who answers the phone has been nothing but nice and accommodating, even after I accidentally said the wrong order and called back shortly after to correct it. No problem. This is the best fast food Chinese restaurant in the Northtowns!
Been eating here for over 7 years, and I enjoy it as the best take-out (or sit-in if you dont mind very basic seating.. read: no ambiance). The steamed vegi dumplings are YUM, they have brown or white rice, and the Singapore Chow Mei Fun is *perfectly* spiced (other places are often quite bland!). Very consistant too.. love these guys!Highly recommend!
I see a lot of people say its the best Chinese theyve had in the area. I just dont get that. I had the Sesame Chicken lunch special. The Chicken was pretty bland. I can think of several area places that have better Sesame Chicken. The egg roll was pretty good but very greasy, as was everything else. The pork fried rice was flavorless. The only really good thing was the wanton soup.
After witnessing the poor service my friend received from this restaurant I was so disappointed. The employee was rude and kept hanging up on her when she made it clear to them the food that was delivered was not what she ordered. They failed to indicate on their menu the descriptions of certain dishes and assumed she knew that they make their Chow Mein without noodles. They could have diffused the situation better.
Food is relatively tasty, but I absolutely despise stir fried celery in my Chinese food, and I found some in there. (However, it seems as if every Chinese restaurant in the US now uses celery in their stir-fry, in my opinion a terrible trend.) Maybe next time I order I will ask for no celery. Or maybe next time I will eat at a Thai restaurant, where I have never come across celery. Also, instead of using broccoli florets, they used the stem of the broccoli, diced up into small pieces, again not the vegetable content I was hoping for.
Gosh darn do I love this place. Great food, great prices, great service.Ive gone to this place way too many times in the passed year, with good reason. This place is awesome.My band practices down the road from this place so, its super convenient during practice days. But Ive taken the 25 minute drive to this place sometimes... JUST BECAUSE.The service is consistently quick and courteous. Whether you give your order in person or over the phone. Its easy and theyve never screwed up any of my orders.The place itself is... okay. I mean, its clean enough. Its got tacky enough pictures on the walls. It does only have 3 booths, but I never imagine the place to be a sit-down restaurant (though I have brought dates there to great success.)The real selling point of this establishment, however, is the food. I love the food here. Its consistently made well. I normally get the Boneless Spare Ribs Combo. Theyve been able to cater to my requests of less sauce, more sauce, or no sauce. Their fried rice is really some of the best Ive had... Its moist without being wet and flavorful without being too salty. Ive also had their General Tsos and Sesame Chicken. Id pretty much be able to recommend any of their dishes because so far they havent let me down.Ive been going to this place for my Chinese Food fixes for a year now... and I will continue to for years to come.
First of all the guy who picked up the phone is so rude. My friend had an order mistake and we called in and he kept her on hold then hung up. We kept calling and he kept hanging up. I am a frequent customer at this place and I can’t believe they would do that. Terrible customer service

2022-07-15We ordered here for the first time and Im very happy with the experience. The food tasted very good and the prices were reasonable. The steamed dumplings were fantastic with more meat inside than any other Chinese restaurant Ive been to in a long time. Im only giving four stars because there was one thing I found to be unsatisfactory: the rice. The rice that is part of the combo dinners was sort of bland and a little too dry for my taste. Overall, though I was very pleased and I will definitely done with them again.

2021-11-07Love this place! Ive been a loyal customer for about 7-8 years. Food is great and always consistent. Ive tried many other places in the past, some were good too, but nowhere around here. Quick time, good prices, great food and friendly staff. Ill be coming back for many more years. Definitely recommend to others!

2021-10-09Excellent food for the price, the Young Chow Fried Rice is especially good. Fast delivery as well when ordering online. Only reason why they don’t have 5 stars is because when they return with your order, your entire credit card number is printed out on the paper, with CV, date, everything. Only negative. Still willing to order tho. The food is worth my CC information being stolen potentially.

2021-08-02My favorite is the Kung Pao Chicken. Be sure to tell them how spicy you want it, if not it will be very mild. The bell peppers are crispy and fresh, and the chicken is fried perfectly every time! The amount you get is also a good value for the money, and the lady who works the counter is very busy but always smiles for me. Highly recommended.

2019-06-14The food from here is always great! I got the combo with chicken fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, and an egg roll, which was delicious. The rest of my family was happy with their orders as well. Only issue is that we only got three fortune cookies for four people. Other than that, it was a great experience!
