We ordered in, but not being from DC, we didn't know who had really good Chinese food available for delivery Christmas Eve. We found City Lights of China on Yelp, read the reviews, and gave them a call. The restaurant had a limited menu for the holidays, so we're ordered the Crispy Beef, Green Beans, and Egg Drop Soup.

City Lights is solid. Reliable. Consistent. Exactly what you want. No fuss Chinese takeout. Classic dishes, some dim sum items too. While I'm sad they no longer have a full restaurant in Dupont Circle, the location in Adams Morgan is far more convenient for me. From Woodley Park, I can take a 20 minute walk to pick up, or order delivery which comes in less than an hour. I'm so glad they're still here.
