Oriental Express

Finally got a chance to visit this place again after many years and was very impressed. The store front is merely a counter and a kitchen. There are only 3 tables in the vestibule. Since it’s located in a small shopping center, parking is a breeze. We ordered the triple crown, lo mein, sesame chicken, egg roll, and barbecue spare ribs. Phoned in the order and had to wait a few minutes when I arrived but that’s ok. The little vestibule is a throwback to the 1970’s. I was impressed by the fact that it was snowing out on a Saturday night and they still had many customers. The food was very impressive, tasty and the portions generous. The only reason I cannot give it the 5^th star at this time is that the pork lo mein had a very slight hint of curry in it. Could’ve been a slight cooking error. But, I’ll see if that happens again next time. Highly recommended for takeout.

Under new management in the last year, and the new folks are GREAT! They have some actual skills, mostly undiscovered by the average customer who just wants to order without thought. I recommend the crab Rangoon among other things.

Love this place. Plain and simple.
Food is good portion, always piping hot, flavorful and greasy when wanted. I like the soups. Can always rely on the food being the ‘same’ and made how I want and remember each time.
Never a long wait and ppl are pretty cool too. They know my friends well enough now hahah

I lived in Yorktown for 12+ years, and this is the best chinese place in town. The place has changed hands in that time, and it’s gotten slightly worse, but is still very, very good.
One caution — if you order egg foo young, sometimes they like to make it ahead of time and precook the patties. Make sure you get a fresh batch.
Bottom line: highly recommended, cheap too. Ask for the shrimp & chicken combination, but tell them you want garlic sauce.
