Totally worth every penny! Sorry for no pictures...my 4 year old son is currently devouring everything!“

You get an egg roll, soup, and rice with your entre, it's a lot of food! The server and hostess was super sweet, and the food was brought out very quickly! They even give you little crispies to snack on while you wait. We will definitely come back next time we drive through Birmingham!“

“This has been a go-to me for more than five years. Delivery.Kung Pao chicken is a fave. Anything spicy I love.Carrots, celery, onions, mushrooms and zucchini are obviously fresh.Bamboo shoots and water chestnuts are clearly not fresh here in Alabama, but they add good crunch.The only thing negative I find is there is not much chicken? I may try something different next time. I love my protein!“

The orders where right and all the food tasted very fresh. We were very satisfied! They included all the condiments we needed, unlike other establishments. Wait was reasonable 15-20 minutes.“

“The food was amazing and did a to go order when I arrived everything was ready. They’ve done redecorating to make the restaurant more diner friendly and appealing. I recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants good food on the go or dine in.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly from what I could see“

“If the place doesn’t have a plastic container with a faded lid and a tiny little spoon, containing the house chili oil, or the squeeze bottle with the top cut off just enough to make you work for the chili garlic paste….. Do you even pho though?! “Side of Vietnamese fried pork egg rolls with a delightful fish and vinegar sauce)“

“We had the wings for the first time yesterday and OMG!!!! Definitely great like everything else on the menu!! 😍😍😍“

“The best, absolute chicken wings I have had from any where. This place is outrageously good. The decor is poor, the staff is professional, and the kitchen looks clean as hell. Can not find a better place, I'm serious when I say the best chicken wings. They are not coated in sauce they are just amazing wings.“

“My recent visit to Good Friends Chinese & Seafood was a delightful journey into Chinese cuisine. The restaurant's inviting atmosphere set the stage for a satisfying meal. I ordered fried rice, egg rolls, and shrimp, and each dish was a delight. The fried rice was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the egg rolls were crispy and packed with savory fillings, and the shrimp was a succulent and flavorful treat. Good Friends Chinese & Seafood's dedication to authentic Chinese flavors and high-quality ingredients was evident in every dish. The friendly service and the welcoming ambiance added to the overall enjoyable experience. Whether you're a fan of fried rice, egg rolls, shrimp, or simply seeking a taste of China, Good Friends is a must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their delicious offerings!“

“10 out of 10 highly recommended!! This was the best food I had in a while we ordered honey chicken with pork fried rice steam dumplings and shrimp egg foo young. Everything was fresh and perfectly balanced. When I say we did not use one pack of soy sauce or duck sauce because the food was that good!!! Enjoy!!!“

“This facility is clean and well-maintained; with the typical franchise design. Our order was processed efficiently, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was standard Panda Express fare; nothing fancy, just decent Chinese style comfort food at a reasonable price. We had the teriyaki chicken, with fried rice/chow mein sides as take-out; which we enjoyed at our lodging. We've eaten at a number of this franchise's outlets in our years on the road; and this location represents the brand well.“

“I think some of yall are ly8n like hell qith the things you say. NOBODY that works there is gonna sit and watch you eat. If you seen a roach.. guess what most all food places have them. Its also not nasty. I bet half of yall complaining got bugs at your nasty house and cant cook. Tryin to get something for free. ALSO YOU CANT CARRY OUT THE FOOD OFF OF YOUR PLATE!!!! THATS NOT HOW BUFFETS WORK. DUMMY“

“Had an interesting experience at Hardee's in Homewood. Lady was weirdly aggressive. Wasn't sure if she was having a bad day but it was not appropriate behavior when dealing with the public. My tots were dumped over inside bag. Explains why the bag was greasy. She balled up the bag and aggressively handed it to me. It was just odd. Never dealt with that type of personality in the food industry. Charged me for a coffee that I didn't order. Tried convince me that i was gtting a better deal. Not when im paying almost 3 extra dollars more thsn my order! She wasn't very nice to the person who had to refund me. May not be the right fit for her ?. Called to speak with a manager. Got voicemail. Geeeeesh!“
