My wife brought home some left over lo mein a while ago which I loved. So I insisted we take the 20!mile trip up 93 and try them for dinner. All in all, I would not go out of my way again. It was just okay.
We always start with basic stuff on first visit, won ton soup, pu pu platter, and either fried rice or lo mein.
The won ton soup was good, not great. The broth was nice and it was full of small wontons, vegetables, and pork slivers.
The shrimp lo mein did not disappoint. It was as good as I recalled from the noted leftovers. The noodles were cooked well, maybe just a tad over but not too much so. They were flavorful. There was plenty of small shrimp and some Chinese vegetables. Very nice.
The pu pu platter, consisting of the standard Chinese appetizers, was pretty disappointing over all. The chicken wings were small and not meaty. The spareribs, on bone, lacked flavor. The fried shrimp were terrible, overcooked and dry. The crab Rangoon had a very odd flavor, maybe the worst I have ever had. The steak teriyaki was okay. The chicken fingers were fine. The egg rolls were quite bland. The only thing real positive was the chicken teriyaki which were meaty, juicy, and very flavorful.
I will note that my wife has had their General Gau's Chicken in the past and liked it a lot.
So all in all, it was a just passable dinner last night, only thanks to the nice lo mein, whose left overs I do look forward to enjoying soon. I give it 3 stars, but it was probably only worth 2.5. I don't see us going out of our way and make this trip again.
