Great food and reliable delivery!I've been ordering from here for the past 15 years. Still the same great food. I always get wings with fried rice and potstickers/ dumplings. Delicious and affordable, easy to share with the fam.

Chinese Express has a drive-thru and I do not come across many Chinese places that offer a drive-thru option. Genius! Not only is their food cheap, you can quickly pull through to their window to grab your grub and exit for those that are on crunch time. Although the surrounding area and parking lot is a bit run down, the food here is great. When my boyfriend and I lived nearby, whether we wanted to take a break from cooking on certain days or we were just in a rush, we would stop by Chinese Express.They have 28 different lunch specials and my favorite dish to get was their chicken lo mein ($7.89) and my boyfriend would get their Szechuan beef ($7.89). Although it's not the best Chinese food I've ever had, it is among one of the better spots in Minneapolis. They actually season their food well and when you request spicy, they really make it SPICY. I'm not the biggest fan of their egg rolls, but they make up for it with their chicken wings and egg drop soup - my favorite soup to get at Chinese places since I was a little girl.The staff gets the job done and they've been kind each time we've visited in the past. You can order online or takeout over the phone. They do not offer a dining room, so either way, you've gotta take it home.

I ordered this in a pinch last night, I had never had it before. The delivery was very fast and the food was fresh and hot! I had cream cheese wontons, teriyaki chicken and general tso- I loved the teriyaki, the wontons were great and the tso was fine! I would probably order again as it was so so fast and cheap.

Surprisingly not bad!I was craving fried chicken wings on National fried chicken day last Friday and while I work I figured I better get something delivered. Searched google and found this place across from my work and decided to give it a try. I ordered online at 11:02am and received food at my office door at 11:27am. I ordered:Steam chicken vegetables with garlic sauce on the side - um so healthy! Different varieties of vegetables with soft chicken. I took a few spoons of the sauce and drizzled it over and to be honest, it wasn't terrible. Somewhat healthy and yet being able to control how much sauce (calories) you put in it!Fried chicken wings - they weren't the best but still crispy and gave enough satisfaction to fulfill the cravings. I could've just ordered wings and seafood To go that is only a few blocks away. Their wings are bomb!Wonton soup - container broke but the broth was good. Too much wonton wrap and very very very itty bitty meat fillings. Not worth it!Four stars for the quick fast deliver and the steam chicken vegetables with garlic sauce

Best Chinese food value in town! Very tasty. Highly recommend the sesame chicken and egg rolls.Will go back and taste the beef broccoli. Drive through option is an added bonus for comfort food on cold Minnesota nights!

I"m on a quest to find the best cheap Chinese in Minneapolis, so I am trying out at least one new place per week. Only in the city, and I only opt for lunch specials.Five stars in terms of the bang for your buck, 3.5 stars for the food. For less than $6 after tax, you get your choice of an entree, rice, and soup/egg roll.I opted for General Tso's extremely spicy (I spent a bit of time in China) with fried rice, and hot and sour soup. The Tso's was fairly typical. Sauce was a bit sweet for my liking and while they seemed a bit afraid of making it too hot (not possible for me), they did offer a ton of hot oil and sriracha to me, so I can't complain. The rice was pretty typical and the hot/sour soup was a 4/5 for sure.All said, you probably won't find a better bang for your buck in terms of Minneapolis Chinese lunch specials, but go into the situation expecting slightly above average food.

I've learned that at the expression "you get what you pay for" applies no where more than at Chinese restaurants.I've had the 7 Stars Around the Moon, Kung Pao Chicken, and Szechuan Chicken, but everything here tastes exactly the same no matter what you get, so it doesn't really matter what you order. Cream Cheese Wontons were good.
