Oriental Reviews
Gotta say, for what it is (fast greasy Chinese food), it's damn good. Always quick and the staff are friendly. FWIW the sign says they are now Dumpling Buddy but they show up on food-delivery apps as Oriental still. Either way, the eggroll is solid.
Solid! One of the stronger inexpensive Chinese takeout places in the area, especially with the late hours. I think it is better than many of its price-level peers. Soup dumplings are pretty flavorful!

Pretty decent spot open late. Not sure why the recent reviews are super negative. I did move recently, so maybe it was better before. Picked up during a rainstorm when everything else nearby was closed. Took ~20 minutes for a fried rice and veggie lo mein. I like that they are obviously healthier than a lot of takeout places, even if it means the food isn't as flavorful as it otherwise could be. Brown rice gang ??
