" I've been a fan of China Station for years, and their fried garlic chicken wings never disappoint! The crunchy texture combined with a perfect spicy kick gets me every time. Whenever I have friends visiting, this is the first place I take them. The family atmosphere is inviting, and even on busy nights, the staff works hard to make sure everyone has a good experience. Overall, it's hard to find a better local Chinese restaurant. Highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was looking for a new Chinese place to try and came across China Station. Their garlic wings were crispy and flavorful, a must-try. The prices are pretty reasonable for the portion sizes. The ambiance is casual, not overly fancy, which I liked. However, the service left me disappointed as I waited quite a while for my order. Still, I’d be willing to come back for the wings and potentially try other dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I love coming here for takeout. The fried garlic chicken wings always hit the spot! They have a good amount of spice and a crispy crust that keeps us coming back. The restaurant has an easy-going atmosphere, perfect for a quick meal. I appreciate that they're family-owned. However, the staff could be a bit more attentive; we had to wait a while to get our order taken. All in all, a great local spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is so good that I literally fantasize about it! From their spicy garlic chicken wings, which are to die for, to the chow mein that has just the right amount of vegetables, every dish has its own charm. You can tell it's family-owned because of the level of care and attention in each meal. I also enjoyed chatting with the owner, who made me feel right at home. I didn’t mind the longer wait time as it gave me time to enjoy the atmosphere. I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" My first time at China Station and I was blown away! The fried garlic chicken wings were absolutely heavenly. I ordered them spicy and they had the perfect crunch! The service staff was friendly, making the dining experience even better. The only downside? The wait time was a bit lengthy as they seemed to be quite busy. But if you can be patient, the food is definitely worth it. I'm already planning to come back with my family. Don't miss this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I had high expectations based on all the reviews I read and the hype around the spicy garlic chicken wings. While they were good, I didn't think they were quite as amazing as I hoped. I found the service a bit inattentive as I waited longer than usual for my order, and the tables felt a bit cramped. However, the food was decent overall, and I'll likely return to give it another shot. Hopefully on my next visit, the service will improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve ordered takeout from China Station a few times and the food has consistently been great. The fried garlic chicken wings remain my favorite—they are so addictive! It’s a small place but the food quality is unbeatable compared to larger chains. I think the service could improve a bit, as they can be overwhelmed during peak times, but I love supporting local family businesses. Overall, I recommend this restaurant for anyone craving Chinese comfort food. " (*Curated Review*)
