Had a late evening and decided to get carry out; ordered online and the food was made quickly and ready when we arrived. The workers were so kind and double checked our food to make sure we had everything before we left, (without even being asked to!). The portions were large and my Dad claims 'that was the best orange chicken I've ever had.' Would highly recommend and would eat here again!

Love this place. The food is delicious, the spice level is perfect, and the people there are the sweetest!

I've ordered twice from here.1st x: food was perfect & arrived ahead of estimated time. Loved the imperial shrimp2nd x: food arrived an hour later than estimated. Food was still good, but not hot. My only disappointment (other than the delay; it WAS a Friday nite) was the rice noodle chicken soup. There is no chicken meat for this soup, just a chicken broth. Just be aware.Vegetarian options: The vegetable combination was fresh & very tasty.

There was a piece of metal in my shrimp lo mein. I'll never eat here again. I ate half the plate before I found this. Wtf is this?

We ordered delivery from here tonight & were generally happy. One plus was that they have their own delivery folks, which means the guy actually did what we asked--put the food at the top of our staircase & rang the doorbell. We started with fried pork dumplings. We liked them. For our main course we had 2 kinds of chicken. The chicken with cashews was excellent, with crispy celery. The General Tso chicken wasn't as good

Hello. This is such a great restaurant indeed! I have been ordering from here for about 8 years. They are very professional and very friendly. You will not regret getting any food here at all. I will never stop getting their Egg Drop Soup and Veggie Egg Rolls. ENJOY ? ??

Food was very good and service was friendly and fast. I order and picked up in person. I forgot to get any utensils so remember to pickup when you get your order!

Great food, friendly, my go to in the area! The Pad Thai is amazing and the meat is always fresh and not fatty like some places!

Went here for dinner and got takeout. Building was nice, service was nice, and I had no issue ordering online. My only issue is that the food had very little flavor. My wife and I ordered the crab rangoons, which only tasted like the sweet and sour sauce you dunk it in. The wonton soup tasted like a salted broth, and the wontons had no flavor. The hot and sour soup had some decent spice to it, but once again tasted like nothing. The chicken lo mein was fine, and the sesame chicken had little flavor. Overall, if you are a fan of La Croix or British cuisine, this is the place for you!

Gravy for the egg foo yung was thicker than a popeyes biscuit but overall the food was actually pretty good... even the thick gravy

Delivery was fast, had my food before the eta time. The food itself, however, was just not OK. I got the orange chicken and chow fun. The orange chicken was very dry, barely chewable and I didn’t even get to eat half of it the chow fun was OK. It just didn’t have that much flavor to it.

Order directly from this restaurant, GrubHub ordering is fruitless. They do their own delivery and you end up paying grub hub for a service fee. The food took over 90 minutes to order and get delivered. The driver was courteous and they followed instructions. Food was not hot or warm. Singapore noodles are plentiful and tasty! One order is enough for 4 servings!

I have been living on Capitol Hill for 12 years now but I've never try this place. Today I had a chance to go here to order SINGAPORE NOODLE to go for lunch. Actually it was very good. It's full of curry flavor and spicy enough for me and also plenty of proteins such as pork, shrimp, chicken, and beef and very generous with bell peppers. The rice noodle was cooked perfectly. I asked for chili oil on the side and they have me gave me a plenty. I waited less than 10 minutes for my order, that's very quick and it was still very hot when I got home. I totally will come back to this 8th street SE gem!
