" My coworkers and I love ordering from Oriental Express every Friday. Their lunch specials offer great value for money, with hearty portions that leave us satisfied. The sweet and sour pork is a popular choice and always comes freshly made. If you're considering trying them, I'd highly recommend giving their dumplings a shot. That's a must-taste! " (*Curated Review*)

" Oriental Express has never let me down! Their menus full of flavors, generosity, and delightful service makes it my favorite takeout! Whenever I'm in the mood for Chinese food, it's the only place I consider. I always recommend it to my family and friends! A reliable choice in every aspect. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a regular at Oriental Express since they opened, and it never disappoints! Their sesame chicken is my absolute favorite - crispy, sweet, and just the right amount of tang. The staff are always warm and remember my order, which makes me feel truly valued as a customer. Expect to wait a little during peak hours, but it's always worth it for the amazing food. " (*Curated Review*)

" On its weekly visit to Oriental Express, my family enjoys the variety offered and how every dish is consistent in quality. One of our favorites is the crab rangoon - incredibly cheesy and fresh! Another bonus is they serve their takeout promptly, making it great for hectic weeknights. The flight is high-quality food that speaks to our Chinese cravings perfectly. " (*Curated Review*)

" Skeptical at first, but after trying their beef and broccoli dish, I'm completely won over! Fresh ingredients, delicious sauce, and prompt service made it a meal to remember. They even remembered my order when I called back. The only downside was the lack of atmosphere, as it is strictly takeout. My advice: don’t skip this gem because of appearances! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I were excited to try Oriental Express again, as we haven't visited since their reopening post-COVID. Admittedly, the interior is not much to look at since it's takeout only, but the food spoke volumes. Each dish was packed with flavors, and we enjoyed every bite. The wait was longer than we anticipated, so I advise calling ahead next time. Quality-wise, they hit the mark beautifully! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a self-proclaimed food enthusiast, I must state that Oriental Express has some of the freshest Chinese cuisine I've experienced! The garlic tofu with mixed vegetables is a dish I'd recommend to anyone looking to explore beyond just the classics. The only downside was the wait time; it could be a bit lengthy because I showed up without calling in first. I learned my lesson there! Overall, a great experience that I will undoubtedly repeat. " (*Curated Review*)
