" While looking for local Chinese food, I stumbled upon Chinatown Express and took a chance. Honestly, I'm glad I did! The teriyaki chicken was juicy and the breaded fish was unexpectedly delightful. The meal was packed and did not leave me hungry—great portion sizes! The atmosphere felt welcoming, and the staff engaged in friendly conversation. However, some dishes seemed more fast-food-like than authentic, yet there was a comforting quality to it that I enjoyed. Overall, a good experience worth repeating. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having lived in several cities, I can confidently say that Chinatown Express stacks up well against other Chinese restaurants. The flavors are authentic, particularly in their sesame chicken, which is crispy and not overly sweet. The only drawback is the wait time during peak hours, but the staff is always friendly. Your money goes a long way here, and the portions are generous. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone craving good Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chinatown Express unfortunately didn't meet my expectations. The egg rolls were overrated and quite soggy, and the sweet and sour sauce tasted a little too artificial for my liking, which left me disappointed in terms of authenticity. Service was average, with staff not overly welcoming. On a positive note, the restaurant was spotlessly clean and had a nice ambiance. Overall, I might give them another chance but with lower expectations next time as I've experienced better Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I have been coming to Chinatown Express for years, and it has become our go-to place for Chinese food. The flavors are consistently good, especially their house special fried rice. On our last visit, the portions were very generous, making it easy for us to share and still take home some leftovers. My kids particularly love the sesame chicken, and the staff has always been friendly and welcoming. We enjoy dining in as the atmosphere is vibrant yet cozy—really feels like home. I highly recommend this place for those looking for hearty Chinese food at a fair price. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit Chinatown Express, I'm reminded why it's my go-to for Chinese takeout. Their orange chicken is crispy and packed with flavor, a perfect balance of sweet and savory. Additionally, I appreciate the generous portions that never disappoint. The staff is quick to serve and pleasant, making the experience much more enjoyable. This is a place I’ll continue to frequent as they maintain a high standard of quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoy trying out new restaurants to expand my palate, but Chinatown Express didn't taste as fresh as I hoped it would. The fried noodles were a bit soggy and lacked seasoning. The service was decent, but I felt the ambiance was a bit cramped with little personal space. I may give it another chance, but it wasn't my favorite experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I typically eat at Chinatown Express once a week. The food is always consistently good, and the lunch specials offer tremendous value. You can't beat the deal for a plate and drink combo. However, I’ve noticed the quality of the chicken has been slightly inconsistent, and I miss the old recipe for their orange chicken. Still, I would recommend it for anyone looking for a quick and cheap meal. " (*Curated Review*)
