I get my Chinese from this restaurant, despite the fact that there are at least a dozen Chinese restaurants closer to my house (in Upper Saint Clair.) Their food is top notch. There are 5 dishes by which I judge a Chinese restaurant: Wonton-Eggdrop soup, Moo Goo Gai Pan, Curry Chicken, Pepper Steak, and Lo Mein. I have so far eaten 3 of these dishes (The soup, the lo-main, and the curry chicken) and each dish gets 5 stars. First, most chinese restaurants in the area don't even have Wonton-Eggdrop soup (they have one of the other). Not only do they have it, but they have the big wontons like I am used to (and they're very yummy). The lo mein (I had chicken lo mein) was perfect - very flavorful and not too greasy as can be typical of some lo meins (theirs was more "saucy" as opposed to greasy. Finally, what I liked best was the curry chicken. I won't name names of other restaurants in the area, but let's just say I don't like watery sauces. Their curry sauce was very NOT watery, it was thick and delicious and they made it the way I like it, not too hot. In my dotage, my stomach has come to get very angry with me when I order food too spicy, although my mouth totally is on board (Sorry if that makes me a huge p@@@y, I am what I eat, get over it.) Anyway, I highly recommend this restaurant. Just a couple of minor things - I didn't get any fortune cookies with my lunch (not sure if this is standard or they just plain forgot) and I'm used to 8 wontons in a quart of Wonton-Eggdrop soup but they give only 4 (however, the wontons ARE big and the quart of this soup is fairly inexpensive, I am sure they'd give 8 if you pay a little more.) These two things are by no means a reason to avoid this restaurant that serves up delicious Chinese food!
