" I can’t say enough good things about this place! The food is always hot, fresh, and made to order. The chicken lo mein was delicious, and the portions were huge! I even had leftovers! I appreciate how friendly the staff is; they always greet you with a smile. If you’re on the lookout for authentic Chinese food at a good price, definitely try Lai Lai! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely terrible experience. The food was dry and lacked flavor. My sesame chicken tasted like it was left over from a couple of days earlier. We waited a long time in line for what felt like sub-par food. This doesn’t meet my expectations for good Chinese food. I won’t be returning any time soon. Save your money! " (*Curated Review*)

" Good portions, but I don't believe it's all that authentic. It tastes decent, but if you're a die-hard fan of traditional Chinese food, you may not be satisfied. Service was okay but could have been smoother. I appreciate the affordability though, and the egg rolls are great! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic find! While the service was a tad slow, the food itself was incredible. The sesame chicken was juicy with just the right amount of sauce. I also loved their fried rice; it didn't taste like the bland ones you get at some of the competitors. Can’t wait to return for more delicious meals in the future! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the most fantastic meal at Lai Lai! Everything tasted fresh and the sweet and sour chicken was incredible. I’ll come back again just for their egg rolls, which are the best around. The only downside was the wait time, but honestly, it was worth every minute. If you want satisfying portions at a great price, this is the place to go! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Lai Lai numerous times now, and generally, I have good experiences. Their fried rice and sesame chicken is always on point. I really appreciate how much food you get for the price. My only gripe is sometimes their customer service can feel a bit rushed, especially during peak hours. I plan to continue visiting as it's hard to find Chinese food of this value. " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family to Lai Lai for dinner and they loved it! They particularly enjoyed the orange chicken and the huge egg rolls. Everything was fresh, and our plates were filled to the brim. My only complaint is the long line but it’s typical for good takeout spots. Just keep that in mind before heading over. I will return regardless! " (*Curated Review*)
