New Oriental Express in Rock Island has quickly become a popular Chinese restaurant for many locals. The Egg Drop Soup is described as spectacular and the Szechuan Shrimp is a must-try, leaving customers in euphoria. The meals are of food perfection, and the friendly service enhances the dining experience. Despite limited dine-in space and an unusual ambiance with plastic tarps, the food quality and service make up for it. Customers appreciate the excellent service, with orders ready on time, labeled containers, and even a free dessert as a thank you. Prices may be slightly high, and drink options are limited to canned pop or bottled water, but the tasty food makes it worth a visit. The restaurant offers generous portions, with some customers able to feed their families off one plate. The combination egg foo young is highly recommended for its lots of meat, vegetables, and the best gravy that is more sauce than thick gravy. General Tsao's Chicken is praised for just enough spice and proper cooking, and other favorites include egg rolls, dumplings (pot stickers), lo mein, and egg wonton soup. The place has a more homemade taste compared to fast food Chinese options and is flexible with substitutions and special requests.
