" I come back to Chinatown Express mainly for their delicious sweet and sour chicken. It's a guilty pleasure of mine—the sauce is so tasty! The staff always seem polite, which makes it feel welcoming. It’s an unassuming place without much atmosphere, just your typical takeout sit-down. Still, the prices and food quality are what keep me returning. Hope they continue making it just as good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn't have the best experience at Chinatown Express. I ordered a seafood soup expecting something rich and savory, but it was bland and only filled with imitation crab. I could hardly find proper seafood mixed in. The portion was fair given the price, but the quality just wasn’t there. Service was adequate, though they seemed rushed. I left feeling unsatisfied and unlikely to return for the seafood options. Much better Chinese places nearby that offer the real flavors I seek. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decide to visit Chinatown Express on a whim and ordered their sesame chicken. I'm very picky when it comes to Chinese food, and I found this dish to be just mediocre. While it was edible, it lacked the depth of flavor I'm used to elsewhere. The ambiance felt devoid of character, but the staff were on top of things. If you're craving Chinese and there's nothing closer, you might find it sufficient. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a loyal customer of Chinatown Express for years. The Hot and Sour Soup is my comfort food, bursting with flavor and just the right amount of spice. The service, while not always perfect, is usually friendly. However, I've noticed that consistency sometimes falters, especially with the main dishes. I once got a dish that felt like it had been sitting too long. But the family running it are always nice, and I'm inclined to keep coming back hoping to find my favorite flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not sure what the hype is about Chinatown Express. I had the sweet and sour chicken and, frankly, it was one of the worst versions I've tasted. The service was a little slow, and the place was rather stale. I didn't see much freshness in the ingredients either. I wouldn't come back unless someone dragged me along. I’ve found that other local spots just do it better. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming to Chinatown Express for a decade now, and the special fried rice is something I always go for. It hits the spot! I've noticed the newer items on the menu have changed a bit - some are more Americanized which is a bit disappointing. Still, the staff is friendly and always try to accommodate me quickly. If you want authentic flavors, you might want to choose carefully from the menu; but overall, the atmosphere feels homey, and I love that it's locally owned. " (*Curated Review*)

" It’s a delight knowing there’s a local place like Chinatown Express nearby. Their chow mein is fantastic, and the crispy egg rolls are a treat! The last time we ordered, they threw in an extra one; that was a nice touch. While the owner could be warmer, you can't beat the quality of their food. They seem to maintain a good standard, which keeps us coming back! Ken knows how to whip up some good sauces. Highly recommend trying it if you’re in the area. " (*Curated Review*)
