“I live just a little more than one mile from this restaurant but I have avoided it for years because it looks like such a dump from the street.Somewhere around 2 weeks ago, I was really craving Chinese and just didn't want to drive all the way over to the Sun Garden in West Chester, which has always been my most reliable go-to Chinese spot.For my first visit I tried the chicken Kung pao lunch and it was as good as any Kung Pao chicken I've had recently. I had it again today as a combination plate, and as before, it was quite good. I don't think the owners even look at these reviews but if they do, they should know that I would recommend that they drop the green peppers from the Kung Pao menu and use more of the snow pea pods in that recipe. They are are much better fit...In between these 2 positive Kung pao chicken experiences I tried several other dishes with less success. Somewhere in these reviews you'll find someone who tried the Pad Thai and said it was terrible. I agree, it's the worst Pad Thai I've ever eaten, If these guys were smart, they would immediately remove it from the menu.Chicken lo Mein is another favorite for me, but here, it's pretty darn boring. I would not order it again from Lee's. The general Tso's chicken also was very forgettable. I did not enjoy that dish and would not order it again. That may not be a food quality issue, I simply might not like that style of Chinese. I tried the Tso in a 2 in 1 platter and was very disappointed with the choice.I would encourage anyone reading this review to go to the website of the Butler County health department and read the inspection reports from this restaurant.... there are some things there that would appear to be concerning, but when I looked at other restaurants that I also frequent in the area, I found that they had similar violations. I would love to think that the owner would read this and respond to the issues of cleanliness, but I don't have much confidence that they'll even bother to respond to this review.Several reviewers mentioned that they were treated rudely. I wouldn't characterize it that way for me, but I would say that these folks seem to be very indifferent to their customers. I think they view this as merely a transaction and do not want to make any effort to build relationships with repeat customers.There is almost always a language barrier when you call in to place an order and I would just like to think that they could have someone working who perhaps has a little bit better command of the English languageIt just seems to me that these folks are in business to make a living by supplying Chinese carry out and they really do not give a hoot about their customers as individualsSo, I can certainly recommend the Kung pao chicken and If these owners ever decide to show some care and appreciation for their customers, this place might have some potentialParking: Ample parking. Restaurant resides in a dumpy strip mall with a dumpy street appeal“
“Had a taste for Thai but Panda was closer. Got the lunch low mein and boneless ribs. DELICIOUS! I do t know how nutritious it was but I don't care. Crab Rangoon was included and it was really good as well. If you like "Americanized" Chinese food you will enjoy. Lunch specials were economically priced and service was pretty quick. I'll be going back. Thumbs High! ?“

“My family went here for my son's birthday and the food was delicious. They have a great variety of food including sushi and hibachi. There is no excuse to find something that you like. #No boredom. The service was fine. My expectations from my servers at a buffet is that they remove the plates and refill drinks consistently. We did have to ask a few times for refills, which is why there are 4 stars and not 5 stars. This will probably be our new Chinese buffet spot.Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps to get into the building. They also have plenty of handicap parking.“
“Just traveling through and looking for a place to eat. Was really surprised at the quality and the quantity of the food at this buffet. The staff was very pleasant and polite. They made you feel welcome. My recommendation is that if you're passing thru, stop at Bee's Buffet.“
“The restaurant is small, but clean. The bathroom was clean, which I always appreciate.The waiter was okay, but not super friendly. We also weren’t even offered chopsticks, they brought us forks. I had to ask for chopsticks, other patrons were given them and didn’t receive a fork. He also steered my daughter away from ordering the mini hot pot because he said it would be too spicy. She ordered chicken with garlic sauce from the Chinese menu. It was tasty and had a slight amount of spice. She ended up disappointed that she didn't get the hotpot, even though she did like her chicken dish.Her boyfriend ordered pepper chicken. I didn't try this one, but he really enjoyed it. I wasn't in the mood for jalapeño flavor, and it was covered in jalapeños.For myself I ordered sliced ear, bo-bo beef, and dry chili chicken.I was also warned that the bo-bo chicken would be very spicy. I sperically told him I love spicy food and I know I can handle it. I even mentioned that I didn't find the food in India spicy at all.The sliced ear was very tasty. My daughter liked the flavor, but not the texture. The outer portion has a texture similar to tendon, which was fine with her, but the rest was more like cartilage. I loved both textures personally.The dry chili chicken was perfectly cooked, although I could have handled some extra chilis in it. It was crispy and tender though.The bo-bo beef? Honestly, I did not find it overly spicy. It was spicy, but not what o would consider a 3/5. I didn't even feel a need for any type of drink during the meal. When the waiter asked me how was the spice. I had to tell him that I expected more. The dish though was delicious. The beef was the most tender beef o have ever tried. It has zucchini in it, which I love. Very good.The question is, do I just have that high of a spice tolerance, or did they give me "white girl" spicy? I seriously think it must have been less spicy than normal. I didn't even break a sweat and barely had a runny nose.Overall, it was very good. The portions were a good size.I went here specifically because if I could eat here I would be the Queen of Spicy in the Dayton area. I still don't know if I earned that crown.The spice level and the waiter not really believing me almost got them a 3, if I could do 3.5 I would. I know there are people that order it spicy and then they want to have it remade, so I'm not totally upset about the attitude. I'm just disappointed that I was promised spicy and it wasn't even on the top 5 spiciest things I've tried.“
“We ate at the Chinese Lantern (a well established restaurant) for years. Unfortunately the original owner sold it and the dishes were not the same.Luckily we did find the China Inn and were also very pleased!We now have carry out at least once a week.Parking: Sufficient spots“
“Wonderful food and experience here! On top of the food being hot, fresh, and delicious- the server and chef were amazing and very kind to us and our kid! 10/10 would recommend. Easily the best Asian restaurant I've been to in a very long time!Vegetarian options: A surprisingly wide selection of vegetarian options! I had the mixed veggies plate with veggie fried rice and it was both filling and delicious! The vegetables were all cooked perfectly and had so much flavor!Kid-friendliness: The server was accommodating, kind, and wonderful with our daughter! Even had her smiling and laughing! They also offer both high chairs and booster seats as well as multiple kid friendly options on the menu!“
“This is THE BEST Chinese food I have ever had! It is not Americanized!! Tried some Dim Sum, which is like tapas or small plates of food. The Red Bean bun was yummy and the Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf! I had the Dandan noodles as my main dish! They were able to make not as spicy as it normally would be! So good! My husband had the Orange chicken! Very good! We don’t mind making the trek from Dayton for some great food! We put this place on our Cincinnati area favorites list!“
“I love this place, the only Asian-style restaurant for me. Mt. Healthy should be proud to have this business!UPDATE 3/19/2024: I have recommended Fortune Express to friends and family and they agree this is the best in our area hands down. You should try it!“
“A gluten free dish we get every time are the Singapore noodles. It is a curry flavor with chicken, shrimp, egg, sprouts and green onion in a huge portion size. Reasonably priced and the food always comes out quickly! Authentically run by non US natives.“
“Love this place. Great food. 6/29/23 We visited for lunch. It was very good but I think one of their steam tables doesn't work well. Some things were cold. 02/16/24 I have been sick since I ate here on the 11th. Apparently that table has never been fixed.“
“There were five of us and we each ordered different proteins and we shared. The individualized broth/soup worked well for all of us. I got the Mala's spicy broth that I spiced up using additional schechuan chillies. Everything about the place is what one would get in Chongqing or Chengdu. I love going here during the cold winter days.“
“We often pick up food from China Wok, and they are always ready on a timely basis. They have a broad menu and do a good job with their food preparation.Vegetarian options: Nice selection.Dietary restrictions: They offer a very good steamed vegetable and protein plate.“
“Always consistently great food. Family owned and man working the Wok is a saint and knows Chinese and Cantonese cuisine. My go to and I have another Chinese restaurant a stone throw away from me. I always make the ten minute drive here. Food is still piping hot when I get home if doing carryout. Economical and one dish lasts me at least 2 meals and I'm a big guy.“
“This is a nice reasonably priced neighborhood Chinese Restiraunt with good food, served up quickly at a very reasonable price! Each dinner sized dish easily serves two people! The venue is no frills, carry out only for the moment.Parking: Plenty parking in strip Mall lot“
“The food was so good. I took a trip on my lunch break and it was defiantly worth it! The food stayed hot as can be the whole time I ate it! This was probably some of the best Chinese food if not the top I’ve had in a long time! I definitely recommend to friends and family.“
“I always order Orange Chicken lunch with food in separate containers. Don’t want my rice all soped up with that orange sauce. But they are awesome. Always fresh. I find myself going once a week. They definitely have a loyal customer in me.“
“Very good food and affordable prices. Ask for any special requests as they are very accommodating. Great selection of Chinese items from their Chinese menu. Ask for it and explore some spectacular dishes. The eggplant is awesome and their soups are phenomenal.Vegetarian options: Awesome vegetarian options. Ask for the Chinese menu of you don't see something you like on the regular menu. Ask for the veggie tofu soup on the Chinese menu for an excellent vegetarian option.“
“Dragon China has always been a personal favorite of not only mine but my entire family. The chicken fried rice is great and simple, the only complaint I have is that it fills you up too fast and you can't always finish the entirety of your meal. Whether you're digging into some chicken and rice or just cracked open a fortune cookie, Dragon China never disappoints.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options for Dragon China are plentiful. I'd say probably ~75% of the menu contains meat, but when you have a menu with around 100 items give or take it still leaves you with a diverse selection for vegetarian options. There's plenty of egg, vegetable, and noodle based dishes that give vegetarians a lot of choice.Parking: I can't say I've ever seen more than five or six cars in the twenty-ish sized parking lot for Dragon China/Crispy Fish & Chicken at any given time. Meaning that no matter what, you're pretty much guaranteed to find a parking space.Kid-friendliness: Dragon China is pretty kid friendly, the food is great, and unless you've got a pretty large family, it shouldn't break your bank (hopefully). If you have a little kid that enjoys chicken nuggets or something of the sort, the chicken fried rice is pretty much just a sweeter chicken nugget with rice and sweet and sour sauce.“
“Good selection of food . The food was hot and fresh, and the hot and sour soup was sweet but hot. The workers were working hard getting out the orders as fast as possible. There was only some language barriers for ordering some of the food.“
“Hi I love there chicken fried rice super good and the lady is so nice I love this place and would like to always eat here thank you Timmy woks for being the best Chinese food place ever you all need to try there chicken fried rice it sooo good and tasty ? and there chicken wings and fortune cookies are so good “
“The milk tea was the best I've had since before I used to live in China. The pearls were just right it didn't too much ice so it was strong and had the perfect amount of sweetness. The tarro tea was really yummy too. Super friendly and clean restaurant. The owners are Thai and the chef is Chinese it's a good place to get pad Thai.“
“Very low key spot with great food. I ordered 45mins before close and was still served piping hot and freshly prepared food. The girl working the counter also had fantastic customer service skills which is always appreciated ? my new favorite spot in Forest “
“This is a hidden jem in Hamilton. Off the beaten path behind a gas station rest this jewel. This is pretty much just carry out, but I’m sure the staff can accommodate if you decide to eat in. And speaking of the staff? They’re very friendly and accommodating. Been getting delicious cuisine for years here. Although every dish is great, I feel that the Szechuan beef is the best in the tristate! The hot and sour soup is very comforting like comfort food. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!“
“I placed a delivery order through Grubhub. I thought I was ordering from a different restaurant. Once I discovered that I had ordered from here, I decided to give them a try.I'm glad that I let the order come. This was the best Chinese food that I have ate in a long time. I will definitely be ordering from here again very soon.“
“Great! The food was super fresh and really good! I got the Trio bowl which had chicken, steak, and fried shrimp on top of fried rice. The fried dumplings were super tasty too. My wife got the Shaggy Dog with crab salad which she loved.The space is super cool, but the front room/dining area needs a little TLC and decor.Loved our experience here and will definitely be back“

“Over one hour to receive our appetizers and total dinner over 90 minutes. Kitchen was very backed up. Table of four next to us got fed up and left after an hour. Not a good experience. Do yourself a favor and hire one person to clear the tables. Had to have been 4 or more dirty tables. Will not return for a while. You have become a carry out store and in house dining has become an after thought. Very good food but not worth the very long wait.“
“I really like the taste of their sesame chicken, bourbon chicken, noodles, and mixed vegetables. The chicken dishes tasted like proper American-Chinese food. And, the mixed vegetables were cooked perfectly--not too raw and not too soft. The seasoning of the vegetables was also great because there was definitely enough seasoning but not too much to overpower the flavor of the vegetables themselves. The portion of the lunch special is huge and satisfying for a big guy. The guy taking the order was polite. The interior was definitely dated, but it was clean. For a food takeout place, the dated interior did not bother me.Vegetarian options: The vegetables were cooked perfectly.“
“Really good food. A breath of fresh air ?️. Let’s be honest, Fairfield doesn’t have a lot to offer when it comes to quality restaurants…. ( we are the land of franchised fast food ?) Thi is one of the best Iv had in a while. Sadly Iv lived here for 10 years and finally gave it a shot and didn’t know what we were missing. We will be back for lunch and dinner and with the kids.Service was top notch too and the place is really clean as you’d expect.P.s. the masala tea ☕️ was amazing.“
