A dish I ordered tasted nothing like what I had ordered. The szechuan chicken tasted burnt, and I believe it was actually tofu. It was to late to call back, and I didn't really want to try and explain what happened.

The best hot and sour soup (no day old stuff here). Orange beef great; Hong Kong noodle great; Chi Cafe fried rice great. Another great Chinatown restaurant - thank you GrubHub. No kidding, since GH made Chinatown delivery a reality, no more ersatz stuff from around downtown delivery joints. Even with the big tip you should give the driver for coming all this way, the price is little different than if you ordered the fake stuff - usually even less! UPDATE: THIS PLACE IS GREAT, STILL!!!

Delivery was FAST--20 minutes early! Prices were quite reasonable--cheaper than a lot of Chinatown restaurants these days. Fish Fillet with Ginger and Onion was delicious and huge. Salty and Pepper Japanese Tofu was great after I crisped it up in the toaster oven a few minutes--not their fault--it's just what happens with delicate crispy dishes when you have them delivered. Egg drop soup was good but not my favorite. Looking forward to trying more from this place.
