China Cafe

Love this place and the owners are really nice . I like getting the pepper shrimp with lo mein

Edit: Place changed hands, food is much nicer, staff is really nice. China Combo is the new name of the restaurant, and its really cheap good food. They even throw in a free canned drink.

I've been here a few times, used to go pretty frequently. However, this last time I went I probably had the single worst dining experience I've ever had. Starting off when we came in, the main employee there was clearly not having a good day and was venting to us about not having enough delivery drivers, so we asked if we should come back when it was less busy. The man insisted we dine in. We were the only ones dining in, but the tension was so high between us and the restaurant staff that me and my girlfriend were afraid to speak for the entirety of our meal. Our server (i'm assuming the only one) was venting to us about how bad his job was that night and we were afraid to say anything. Order was wrong, but the cherry on top for our night was that our server left the building to deliver food, leaving us in a near empty restaurant with no way to get anything including the bill. I wasn't sure if they forgot about us, but we had to ask for our tab in the front as everyone was in the kitchen. I know that it was stressful for the employees that night but it felt as if the restaurant and our server was taking out everything on us. If you're doing take-out, the food is so-so but nothing special. If you dine in, literally anywhere is better. You might as well go dine in at a random stranger's house instead as that would be better than what we experienced. Not to mention the restaurant itself looks like its falling apart on the inside with storage boxes and random stuff everywhere. Avoid this place!

Is it the best Chinese in the city? No. But it just might be the best value. $5.99 for a very generous meal (lunch combo). Will be back!
