" The prices here are a steal for the generous portions they provide! I've enjoyed nearly everything on the menu at least once, and there hasn't been a miss yet. It feels like you are getting a backyard meal every time. I usually take family or friends since they always leave happy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, this is my favorite dining spot in Gainesville. The portions are huge and it's very affordable for the quality of food they serve. Every time I come, the food is fresh and consistently delicious. If you’re looking for a fulfilling meal without breaking the bank, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)

" There’s something about their orange chicken that is heavenly! I could eat it every day. The place has a real chill vibe, perfect for unwinding after a long day. Plus, it's a place that knows how to keep their customers happy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered the beef and broccoli and wow, was it disappointing. The broccoli was overcooked, and the beef lacked any flavor. I used to love this place, but I don't know what happened—just not the quality I remember. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Orient Express is my go-to spot for Chinese food. Everything I’ve tried has been flavorful and so filling! The crab rangoon is always perfectly golden and crunchy, and the sweet and sour chicken is epic. The staff knows me by name at this point! The prices make it even better – it's reasonable for what you get, and I rarely finish a whole meal in one go. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a solid meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really enjoyed myself at The Orient Express! The beef and broccoli was exactly how I wanted it: tender and seasoned well. I was pleasantly surprised by the quick service, even during peak dinner hours. Definitely going to bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Orient Express for the first time recently and fell in love! The atmosphere was lively with great wall decor that reminded me of classic rock and roll, and the food was delicious. I had the bourbon chicken combo which was flavorful and filling. Probably the best egg rolls I've ever had! The service was prompt, but it did take a little longer during peak hours. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)
