Splendid China

I have never been disappointed in this splendid restaurant! My husband and I have been coming here for the past 20 years. General Tso' s, Lomein, Egg fu young, Beef & broccoli, Kung Pao Chicken and many more... my husband loves mushrooms and they do add mushrooms to the dish if resquested... I don't like mushrooms... but he does. I have ordered takeout frequently, they are fast and accurate. We have dined in a few times and wait staff are professional, helpful and kind. It is generally not full of diners, but there's always a steady stream of to go customers. We live nearby and order takeout more often. If you don't like mushrooms and are ordering Egg fu yung be sure to request no mushrooms. I like that they are open until 10, which comes in handy when I have a late day at work. Lunch menu is also great, good prices and serving sizes. I love the egg rolls. I'm generally not a fan of fried spring rolls, but their spring rolls are good, I just prefer egg rolls. The soups are good, I get the egg drop soup, my husband and My dad likes the hot and sour soup. (I don't order it because it has mushrooms) I enjoy the egg drop soup immensely, of I'm under the weather and need quick take out it's a comfort. The restaurant has a nice large dining area and large windows to look out at Cooper St. &Sublett street traffic. Lovely light from the windows and it is always cheery.

Well this is sad. I thought the food was pretty good until I found this bug in my rice. Disgusting! Will not be going back, seems like food safety is not a priority here!

I never had a bad meal here. The Imperial shrimp and chicken is my favorite. Go for it I think you will like it.

I ordered the combo fried rice and. Teriyaki chicken. Both were fresh. The hot and sour soup is fire. The egg rolls are very good. Get an extra. These service is good and the ambience is ok. Best Chinese food in this immediate location.

Picked this up because it was close. I should have driven further to where I know the food is good. We got 4 different dishes and none of them were good. The orange chicken was so much breading and fat. The sauce was overly sweet and just had a terrible flavor. Same with the Mongolian beef. Definitely don't recommend

A little disappointed with the flavors. We ordered the beef and broccoli dinner and general Tso's chicken dinner. Both were pretty bland. The beef and broccoli was watery and the meat was a strange texture. We upgraded to fried five and it was very bland with only peas and carrots. Also, not a huge deal, but we ordered two egg rolls and only got one. The one we did get was pretty good! Positive notes: the food was on time and hot. The person on the phone was kind. The to-go packaging was secured and organized. Wish the food was more tasty.

This was so incredibly disappointing. We just stopped in for a quick snack and ended up throwing it all in the trash.4 eggrolls and some egg drop soup. How could it be so bad? The soup was nothing but a cornstarch slurry. I guess the price of eggs had finally hit these types of dishes. Less on the eggs and more thickening until it is egg paste. While it may be useful to replace bathroom tile, it is not edible. It was garbage so it went into the trash.The eggrolls were just old and dry. They must have been sitting there all day in the warmer. They were not hot and that made the wrapper tough to chew. If it wasn't for the spice, I would have given it to the dogs as a bone/treat. Needless to say, I won't waste anymore money popping in for a snack. 2.00 for each egg-roll and 3.50 for the soup. Money wasted but another lesson learned. Stop eating out unless the restaurant is 5 stars.

My family has been coming here since they opened and they are as good as they were 20+ years ago! Food is fresh and great quality. Service is amazing whether you are dining in, grabbing take out or having your meal delivered. Great family atmosphere and again, wonderful service.

Pick up order was not correct and had to drive back- wonton soup was salty- in past use to get nice size plump egg foo young- this time shrimp egg foo young were small and sauce salty-I have never been disappointed but this was a bad experience

Great food, great service--at an affordable price. This is the place to go for excellent Chinese takeout in South Arlington.
