I love Sunflower Asian Cafe. Their best dish, in my opinion, is the Mapo Tofu. This has been a favorite dish of mine ever since I was a child. This Mapo Tofu at Sunflower Asian Cafe always transports me back to my childhood. I will always ask to add pork if it doesn't always come with it. The other thing I like to add is broccoli. As you can tell from some of my previous check-ins, Sunflower Asian Cafe was a godsend post-pandemic, and I still go there. I prefer eating at the restaurant instead of take-away or delivery. It's much better nice and hot.

So I was in the neighborhood and wanted Chinese food and I had never eaten here before. I decided to check it out. Located in an unassuming strip mall area, the restaurant is fairly small but decorated nicely and appeared clean. I entered and a woman said "Sit wherever you want." So I found a seat and proceeded to wait. The restaurant wasn't busy. There were only 2 other tables occupied in the restaurant. I waited quite some time and finally flagged down a server. She was an older lady, who literally was glaring at me as she approached me! I politely asked if I could get some service and she stomped off without saying a word. I was starting to get up to leave when a younger woman came to take my order. I was hesitant to stay, but thought " what the hell" and placed my order. It took quite awhile for my food to come out and lo and behold, it was "Bad Grandma" delivering it to my table. She literally slammed the plate down in front of me and walked away. No offer of a refill on my drink, nothing. The food did taste very good, but rarely have I ever experienced such hostile service. Therefore for me, this is a one and done. I won't return.

Authentic Chinese dishes from Dan Dan noodles to chongkin chicken. So much flavors with each dish.

Enjoyed dining at Sunflower Asian Cafe, certainly one on my shortlist of favorite Chinese restaurants in town. This is probably the only restaurant here specialized in authentic Huaiyang cuisine, a branch of the Jiangsu cuisine, with special attention on presentation and balanced taste. Ordered their Yangzhou combo fried rice, Nanjing salt duck, Yangzhou boiled bean curd strips, fish fillet with sweet rice wine sauce and lamb with scallions. Heard their Yangzhou chowder is also quite popular. Yes, they also have some Chinese American dishes, but you missed a lot if you have not tried their authentic dishes.

We were not impressed. I ordered the Chow Fun with vegetables and basically the only vegetables were broccoli and something that may have been zucchini. It wasn't terrible but wasn't great, either.My wife got the Prawns with Walnut and as far as she could tell, they were pecans, not walnuts. Also, the kitchen forgot to make hers, so she had to wait a fairly long time after I had been served. And she didn't think it was very good.We thought the server was a bit surly, and her English was very poor. We felt like we were an imposition on her day. To be fair, she was the only one we saw serving and there were 6-7 tables filled.While we were there, the 1990s called and asked for their decor back.We really wanted this to be better, but c'est la vie.

Our neighbors kept telling us to try this place so when family was in town we got some take out. We tried so many items and everything was good. My favorite was the cumin lamb. This is a great suburb option and we will definitely try again since it is so close to our house. Next time I want to try it at the restaurant instead of take out. Highly recommend.

Why is the waitress so angry and rude. No exaggeration here, she has no trouble snapping at the customers. I think along the lines of the Seinfeld Soup Nazi. Yikes!!The food is mediocre .

We did not receive what we ordered. We received items We didn't order and were charged. The food was less than warm. The person who delivered rang our doorbell dropped off the items and ran as if their hair was on fire. No courtesy what so ever. There are too many other places to enjoy.Poor representation of a business model.
