" I have tried many Chinese places, and somehow keep coming back to Chinatown Express. Their sesame chicken is on point! It's crispy and has a great sauce! Just be aware that occasionally, the person at the register can be a bit snippy, but I guess everyone has off days. Still, the food is worth the occasional attitude. I wholeheartedly recommend their egg rolls as well! Excellent. " (*Curated Review*)

" I usually don't dish out compliments without reason, but Chinatown Express truly surprised me with their food quality. A friend recommended their sweet and sour chicken, and I can see why! It was so good with the right balance of sweetness and tanginess. Best of all, it was freshly cooked. I was also impressed by their prompt service. Definitely a place I would revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eating at Chinatown Express was a mixed bag for me. The food had potential but lacked the depth and authenticity I was hoping for. The fried rice tasted more like it was jazzed up with too much soy sauce, and the dumplings seemed stale. I remember trying the orange chicken once, and it was overly sweet for my palate. The positive note was the fast service I experienced. However, the food didn’t leave me with a good memory. If they could fix their flavors, it would be fantastic! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing some buzz about Chinatown Express, I decided to give it a shot. I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken and was disappointed to find it overly sweet and lacking that delightful spice I crave. It felt like the chef was hiding from authentic flavors. On a brighter note, the spring rolls were quite nice, and the staff was friendly. Overall, I might give it another chance but would choose a different dish next time. Not the worst but certainly not the best I've had. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered takeout from Chinatown Express after seeing so many positive reviews. I have to agree that their lo mein is really tasty! It was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. The atmosphere is not much to speak of, being more of a takeout joint. My only complaint is that they need better organization with their orders, as mine was wrong. However, the food made up for that mistake! Overall, a good experience. " (*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*)
