China One Xpress

We have been eating here for years when the craving for Chinese hits, it is what is close to the house. I give 5 stars on their prices, very reasonable. Even we get take out burgers nearby, always go to China One and get a large french fry, for $ 3.00 it’s enough for 4 people. I’ll give them 5 stars on their portions, 1 plate is enough for 2 meals. Everything is generally fairly fresh. I love the Orange Beef but sadly the last few times I have gone, they didn’t have it. Tonight I ordered Lo Mien with Teriyaki Chicken and I was highly disappointed. The Lo Mien was bland, did someone forget to add salt to the noodles when cooking them? The chicken tasted like it was old, yesterdays batch, it barely had the flavor of Teriyaki. It was like chewing shoe leather. On tonight’s meal I would give 1 stars. However they get 2 stars on the egg rolls.
Now the place is always clean, the counter staff is always nice and friendly. For that I would give 5 stars. So overall I am giving 4 stars.

Not the best I have had, but they do pile it high for the small price they charge … Just not the best… has your basic dishes and a little long under the heat lamps.

Stopped by out of convenience, it was across the street from the gas station. I was initially surprised at the cleanliness of the lobby area. The food display is clean and inviting. I ordered a single entrée meal and it was more than enough for two meals. The food was not bad, i could see myself coming back again.

China One Xpress is one of those places that I occasionally go to because of convenience.
The first couple of times that I went there, I ordered something with shrimp. Like so many other places, the shrimp tasted frost bitten and had a film on them. Not good at all. Based on those visits alone, I would give it a 1 star… but I’ve learned a trick. Veggie fried rice!!! By staying away from the seafood, my meals have been decent!
To be fair, all of my friends who eat beef and chicken like what they get, but I don’t eat that, so I wouldn’t be able to comment on those dishes! In addition, this place gives you TONS of food! My veggie fried rice could be 3 servings, or 2 if I’m real hungry, and it only costs 4 or 5 bucks.
You get a lot for your money, but the quality isn’t the greatest. The people are nice and the place is clean though! :)
