I feel for the lady who is always working long hours at the counter and would like to be able to support her business, but the food is horrible. I just received chicken and rice soup that was water, chicken, and rice. It had a brown tinge, but the broth tasted like just plain water. Yuck! It tasted like something you'd give a prisoner in solitary confinement for sustenance and nothing else. I'm taking it back. The Cho Mei Fun was gross and greasy and I'd rather just toss it or give it to the homeless person who sits on the corner by the Wendy's. The veggies in it looked fresh, but the noodles and sauce made it so greasy that I didn't want to eat it, nor did I. The flavor was not good, tasteless again. The egg drop soup had virtually no flavor as well, and the wings were alright, but greasy and making my stomach feel BLAH. I so regret coming back here.UPDATE: When I went back for my soda that they had not given me and to return the soup, I was refused a refund and the woman at the counter got defensive. Apparently they do not ever give refunds. This is unacceptable. So instead, they made me another bowl of the cheaper egg drop soup to go with the first bowl I ordered it didn't want to eat. No more EVER. Consider yourself warned.

They should close this place already. It was completely empty and the owner is still rude. The rice was mushy and looked suspect. The hot and sour soup had gelatinous blobs in it. I agree with the other reviews. This place has really gone downhill. It's disrespectful to the customers to serve whatever is passing for food.

DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTARAUNT .... EVER ! I went in for Take Out, and ordered the Kung Pao Shrimp. It was ready in under 5 mins, amazingly ! Once home, I noticed that the shrimp WEREN'T done . I turned around and took it back to the restaurant, and showed the man working that the shrimp weren't even pink yet, and obviously not cooked. Instead of him just recooking the order, he takes the dish back into the kitchen area, and begin to pick thru my food, pulling the shrimp out and throwing them back into the pan. (Same pan / wok they cooked the next dish in, by the way.) Now, once again, this had been taken to my home, opened, and returned to them. And they don't know if I've got cats, dogs, rats or roaches running around and they just took the shrimp out and directly back into the wok to cook through. I also called Durham's Health dept about this practice.Youve been warned. These people are going to kill someone, by first of all serving raw seafood. Secondly, taking food that's left their establishment and immediately putting it back into the same pan that they're cooking other dishes in, not knowing what I could've done to the food while at my home.Take Heed.

I remember when this shopping center was opened. I would walk with neighbor friends down to eat in this restaurant. The food has went down hill really fast. I know people joke a lot about them not serving real meat. But really the chicken without bone is questionable. I'm confused in the texture and even smell. After cutting a piece in half I'm offended. I have a Caribbean background so I'm familiar with sause and seasonings that change the color or meat on the outside. But the inside would never look darker than the outside. So after this review I'm call the health department. Don't eat here something is not right. I believe they see the change in clientele and assume they can offer sub quality food. But I'm here to ensure that stops or they go out of business.

Usually I don't post bad reviews because I don't want to hurt businesses but...this was the worst Chinese I've had in my life. Sweet n sour chicken was brown and mushy. Rice was overcooked and mushy. Very disappointing. Service was good though the woman was very nice I just wish the food was more edible.

Chinese restaurants can always be depended upon to serve food on days like today when it's snowing and most people are hitting up grocery stores and getting ready to hole up inside. This place was exactly what I expected, and that's a good thing!I went with the standby General Tso's ($7.95 with rice and an egg roll, though sadly, only two pieces of broccoli); Phil was a bit more adventurous and got Szechuan beef and prawns (decidedly not Szechuan -- no peppercorns -- and he complained, "It tastes just like anything else on the menu"). Even so, he scarfed it down. They do a pretty solid take-out service here it seems. Lots of folks in and out while we were waiting for our order (which turned around in under 10 minutes). There is seating if you want to dine in. If you do so, you can play the claw arcade game OR buy a pack of Trident in the vending machine that was sadly empty save a few sticks of gum.

Clean, courteous service, premises look clean but fair. I had the egg foo yung partly because it isn't standard menu fare anymore. It didn't look great but it was good. I stopped in on a whim as I was pretty hungry and there it was. The portion was two pancakes sauce and a lot of rice, if you wanted to stretch it into 2 adult portions you could, especially if you are budget conscious. I don't eat it with the sauce. (gravy?) Totally not a fancy place. I was there for lunch. Most food orders were take out.

I really liked the food, especially the Mongolian beef. The drinks were too expensive though, the price they charge for a simple can of pop is ludicrous. The food made up for it so its ok but still.

The food was pretty good, but the owner has become very rude. She literally shouts at you, as if she's rushing you to give your order. This behavior is very unprofessional. I won't be dining here again.
