“Excellent food, prepared fresh, served hot. Very clean. Owners efficient & 'know your name.' Group friends there at least x1/mo if not more.“

“I recently went to the Hy-Vee bakery looking for a cake for my sons birthday. As I was looking through the cake selection book I happened to look over and up behind the bakery counter and I saw the most fantastic cheeseburger cake. I spoke with Monika, and found out that it was a specialty cake that she had just added to display. I asked if it was possible to customize it as my son eats plain hamburgers and would find the humor in that and Monika was very accommodating. The cake turned out so amazing. Monika is so creative and the cake turned out so good. A big THANK YOU to Monika for being just so nice and accommodating but also a fantastic creator of beautiful tasty cakes!“

“Absolutely The best Chinese food In Bloomington, normal! And I’ve tried them all! The owners are extremely friendly, and the food is absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for reliable, consistent, delicious Chinese food, this is the place! Highly recommend.“

“Best chicken on a stick in town! Also great dumplings, angel.hair, and if you're in the mood to go nuts on sugar, the Chinese donuts are heaven! The delivery is also fast and I've never had an order wrong.“

“I have nothing but great things to say about this spot.
I'll start with the owners. They are both EXTREMELY nice and always have a smile on their face. The customer service is fantastic and they work fast. They make this food fresh so don't complain about wait, it's worth it!

The food is fresh and delicious! Cooked to order and the terriyaki they use is addicting. The portions they give you are extremely satisfying and I tend to have leftovers (I'm not complaining lol).

Price varies for orders but we usually get the chicken teriyaki and that runs around $10.

Even though Eastland mall is a ghost town, this place keeps going and I hope they continue to stay open!“

“My Daughter and I went and dined in today. As the food was delicious, the service was not. It was not even busy!! There was only one other person in there. This poor older lady, had to go up and ask for a to go box cause no one came back to check on her. Our waitress only came once to check on us Of course it took her a while to even refill our water. The high point was when a personal call came thru on the business line, and then the F-bomb flew by the employee telling the lady to not call back. And then the conversation went on with the employees about the person that called. And more descriptive language was used. It was very unprofessional and not worth even leaving a tip for. (Even tho I did 🤷‍♀️). So needless to say I was very disappointed.“

“Stopped in for dinner as we passed through Bloomington. The food was fresh and hot, service was quick, the staff were friendly, bathrooms were clean. By far, this was the best Panda we've stopped at in ages (and we eat at Panda's when we travel very frequently). We stopped a little after 7pm.

Parking: Plenty of spaces when we were there. Panda is on it's own land, so parking is not shared with other businesses.“

“I can’t not say enough good things about Sichuan, by far the best Chinese restaurant in BloNo. The food never disappoints and service is always so friendly.“

“Traveling on Christmas led to few options for lunch.We found this Chinese restaurant in normal Illinois just off I55, exit 165.The sweet and sour chicken was really good.The lo mein also was very good.Portions of those lunch specials were more than adequate for the 3 of us to eat to satisfaction.And reasonably priced.Also the staff was friendly and welcoming.“

“Great wall > Chings. Definitely the go to Chinese restaurant by ISU.“

“Listen, all us Foodies know that the small “Mom & Pop” shops, “Roach Coach’s”, “Dives” and “Hole in the Wall” places are the best place to eat! This place should NOT be overlooked!I did a signing with some wonderful people there today and had the honor of tasting their food. Now, my husband and I are Chinese Foodies and I am at a loss for words! The food at this amazing little place is LITERALLY the BEST Chinese Food we have EVER eaten!We live in a tiny rural central Illinois town and it is a drive to get there but I am telling you it is so good we would drive to Normal just to get our Chinese fix from this off the chart’s restaurant!“
