    I have not been here in awhile. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken with an order of crab rangoon. I was one of about four customers in there and I was doing a take out order.

    The woman that took my order said 10-15 minutes, but it was more like a 25 minute wait. Not a big deal, because we went to a store nearby for a few other things.

    All of my frustration was erased when we ate the food, it was delicious, a great value, and large portions. I will definitely be back.

    Bleh. Why do so many chinese restaurants think they have to make food salty or sweet for American people? We won't be ordering here again. Lo mein was too salty, garlic sauce too sweet. Hot and Sour soup was relatively bland compared to the real thing.

    Went here today for the lunch buffet. I wasn't having big expectations due to its reviews and the fact that it is a buffer but as we were a bigger group it was just the easiest choice.

    First of all I have to say that if you want to eat Chinese food, real Chinese food don't eat here. They only have all those unhealthy covered in sauce 'American-Chinese' dishes. But I guess that the name does give that away. They also had sushi (Japanese) and it looked good but it was placed close to the live cooking area and not many people seemed to take sushi so I didn't try it as it didn't seem to have a big turn over and I am careful with raw fish.

    The restaurant itself is big as well as the buffet. But in general most of the dishes are stir-fried and covered in sauce. So it's really hard to find something a little bit health. They did have some seafood that was just steamed or lightly covered in sauce so I went for that. I tried their fish but it didn't taste good. I'm disappointed that even basic dishes like spring rolls were not cooked properly. I tried to eat one spring roll but I gave up as it was so hard and stale that I couldn't bite it.

    They also have a live cooking areas but I couldn't try that one out because at the time I was getting my food nobody was working there later on. A friend ended up getting his second plate there and he said that it was good. But one plate was more than enough for me.

    Unfortunately, also the food made me feel sort of sick and my stomach felt really upset after eating here. So I will most likely not return.

    Anyways, I'm giving them two stars because their desserts were good and our waitress was also really nice.

    I tried this place years ago and was less than impressed, and have honestly avoided it since due to the not so great reviews.  I have to say though that it was pretty darn good on a recent July weekday for lunch.  You sure can't beat the price.  I ordered the Hunan Chicken at the counter along with a fountain drink and sat down at a table to wait, watching an endless stream of a wide variety of business folks.  White collar, Blue collar.  One hard-working person after another came in for both sit-down and take-out.  (pretty small place, not a lot of space to land).

    Didn't take too long before my Hunan Chicken was ready.  I was pleasantly surprised. Loved all the broccoli, tender chicken.  Hot and tasty.  Would do it again!

    Mrs. B and I like to get Chinese take out quite a bit on our way home from church, but the place we used to go to started closing on Sundays so we've been in search of a new go to spot for our Chinese fix. Not sure that Jumbo China is going to make the cut.

    Stopped in to get some take out and was greeted by a pretty apathetic kid working the register. He was nice enough, but you could tell he was only there because his parents probably run the place and put him on register duty. I placed my order for the Singapore noodles, some lo mein, spring rolls, and wonton soup. Nothing fancy and no special requests.

    The place was not busy when I walked in, but a number of folks came in to pick up call in orders while I was waiting. Not a big deal, but it seemed like they did all the call in orders first and didn't do much to work in the ones for folks sitting there waiting. After about 20 mins, the guy who ordered after me decided he was too hungry to keep waiting and asked for his money back.

    Once I finally got my order and made my way home, the food was just okay. The lo mein was pretty good, but I've had better Singapore noodles. Same with the wonton soup.

    The location is convenient, but if I'm going to wait that long the food better be really good or at least a bit cheaper than other places (which it isn't).
