I’m surprised at all the negative reviews so I thought I’d leave my own! We got delivery from here for the first time recently (via DoorDash) and the food was hot, well packaged, and delicious. It’s standard American Chinese, nothing revolutionary, but I’d certainly order from here again.The kung pao chicken was well cooked, with crunchy chicken and tender vegetables instead of the homogenous mess you get sometimes. Had a nice kick to it too. The wonton soup broth was great and the fried pork dumplings tasted good, although the dough was a little chewy.

My recent dining experience at Pupuseria Dona Azucena has left me with a mixed bag of impressions, primarily centered around the establishment's cleanliness standards. While the staff exhibited friendliness, the overall hygiene of the place was undeniably disappointing, to the point that it became a deterrent to the dining experience.The cleanliness issue extended beyond what one might consider acceptable, creating an environment that was, frankly, off-putting. The conditions were such that they triggered a visceral reaction, making it difficult to enjoy the food. The lack of attention to cleanliness not only detracted from the ambiance but also raised serious concerns about the overall hygiene standards of the restaurant.One of the most disheartening aspects was the state of the restroom facilities, which I can only describe as the worst I have encountered. The condition was, frankly, unsanitary and made the prospect of using the facilities an unpleasant experience. Clean restrooms are a fundamental expectation for any dining establishment, and the conditions here were far from acceptable.Despite these cleanliness challenges, I must acknowledge the friendly demeanor of the staff. Their approachability and willingness to assist did provide a positive counterbalance to the otherwise disappointing aspects of my visit.In conclusion, while Pupuseria Dona Azucena may have a friendly staff, the severe cleanliness issues, especially in the restroom facilities, overshadowed the positive aspects of the dining experience. Addressing these hygiene concerns promptly would be essential for the restaurant to maintain its reputation and ensure a more enjoyable and comfortable environment for patrons.

Extremely rude when picking up my food. I was yelled at by the woman who runs the front. Very rude and I will NOT return. The restaurant is not clean at all.

Pretty average. Nothing really striking about the taste. I would say it was maculate but also wasn't awful.

I drove here to pickup food and that might have been a mistake since that parking lot is terrible to maneuver around. I got the general Tso's chicken combination and it came with fried rice and an egg roll. The chicken was not great, as for the rest there was nothing bad about it but nothing amazing about it either. For the price, I say you get a decent amount of food but get what you pay for.

Pay first, I ordered crispy chicken, which is pretty dry, with white rice on the side. Only took me $15 or so, pretty cheap. No water except those bottled juices.

Skip this place. I order steam dumplings which were disgusting, tasted doughy and vegetable smelled weird I ended up throwing all of out. The orange chicken was okay super sweet thought and it had pieces or raw orange in it? Plus the white rice that comes with it tasted pretty old and mushy and lastly the Lo mein was over cooked and tasteless. There’s so many places that are better than this

Just don't do it, 1st and last time. $32.00 for Lo mein which was way over cooked sticky dry no flavor pile of yuk and a General Tso's combination with $ 2.75 for pork fried rice which again was overcooked yesterday I'm sure just terrible all around, the General Tso's was just bland mushy overcooked and dried out tasteless blaa.. oh the egg roll had a chance but it was kinda empty with a very greasy after taste.Just save your money go somewhere else.

Ordered dinner, did not arrive. Tired to call restaurant and number is not available. Still took my money though. Horrible!

Ordered a general TSO chicken dinner portion and a coke online. Chicken was bland with no taste and half cooked. Fried rice was also not great. Also, I never received my coke. Restaurant staff should make sure to quality check food orders to ensure correct inclusion of items. This is the third time this has happened to me. I won't be choosing them again.

China Express has been our go to for years. Their location is in a very small strip mall with limited parking so we've only used them for delivery. Their Egg Rolls and Crab Rangoon are very nice and NOT fried to a crisp like other places we've tried. We tend to get the Kung Pao Chicken which is consistently tasty. Give them a try!

Terrible. I order sweet & sour chicken and they didn’t put my sweet & sour sauce in the bag.
