The most important thing for those with allergies is that it is nut free. No peanuts in their Kung Pao chicken and she said no nuts in anything so no possibility for cross contamination. The almond cookies of course have an almond in them but they are individually packaged and not in the cooking area. They use soy oil. They don’t use MSG.
SERVICE: Ling was incredibly helpful answering my questions and figuring out what would work for me.
VIBE: The place, while not beautifully decorated is extremely clean.
FOOD: The food was really good. Of course taste is subjective - I grew up with proper Chinese food and this is proper.
QUALITY: excellent and fresh no browning on the veggies.
PORTIONS: Huge - one 2 item combo was enough for 2 people who eat healthy size portions. I could only eat half.
BONUS: Bilingual - Spanish didn’t seem to be an issue.
PRICES: Average. $9-13 for combos, $6 for soup, $1 for an egg roll.
Highly recommend not because it’s the #1 Chinese food place but the overall experience qualifies as 5 star in my book.
Vegetarian options: I asked the following are meat free…Veggie, Egg Drop and Hot & Sour soup, they will custom make soft or fried tofu and veggies for the combo plate, Veggie egg rolls, chop suey, etc.

The portion size here is a lot and the prices are great! I don't think you can really go wrong with any item on the menu. I got the 2 item plate and got half fried rice and half chow mein along with pork and orange chicken. So good!The staff are nice. The restaurant was clean and well lit. They charge a 50 cent fee if you use a credit card. Bring cash if you can.Plenty of parking in the lot.
I’ve been going to Maine Express for 20+ years with my family. Now I get to take my family with me. I usually go once every two weeks they’re super clean. Super nice the food is delicious. Personally, my favorite is jalapeño chicken. I really really love the texture of it. My husband loves the orange chicken my kids love I repeat, love the eggrolls And the fact that they carry Sunny D chews I really enjoy this place. I always dine in, but sometimes I do carry out when days are rainy but other than that I always dine in
I was hungry Guys!!! Food was good! When we walked in my son had our dog, And the one of the employees said we couldn't have our dog inside.. which is ok. But We love Pet Friendly restaurants & this one wasn't! Not many tables to dine in. You can barely tell this place exists... if you are not really looking or parked near there you will never know it is there... I mean I barely noticed it after 4 years of living and going to this shopping center for 4 years... Atmosphere needs a little work for sure. Something a little more inviting... I was about to walk out but I really wanted to Chinese food and wanted to try it. Honestly... I would have walked out the moment they said my puppy wasn't welcome and the Atmosphere but... I said.. I wouldn't let it bother me and still ordered.

I haven't been to this restaurant in years. The food was good. The only thing is that the employees have a very bad character. I went to this restaurant about 14 years ago and I have never returned because of the bad service.
One of the best Chinese food places ever! I've been going to this spot ever since I was a kid. The place went by a different name back then, and had different management, but I'm happy to say that it's pretty much stayed the same after all the changes. The food is super yummy and affordable as well!
