I order take out here from time to time and its always delicious! General Tso's and orange chicken are my personal favorites, and the rice and chicken proportions are very large. Every time I pick it up it's hot and very filling. Very very tasty!

If you live in College Station, consider yourself lucky to have several Chef Cao's in your town. I am not an expert on Chinese cuisine, but I have lived in China and eaten in hundreds of Chinese restaurants and Chef Cao's is top tier. With very fresh ingredients, authentic recipes that stand out from the norm and very fair prices, I can't recommend these restaurants more highly.

I placed a doordash order and it was quick and hot and freah when i got there. The orange chicken was delicious but the fried rice was sooo bland. It tasted like absolutely nothing and they didn't even give me soy sauce to tey to make it taste better. Eh ill give them another shot because of the orange chicken alone.
