Since GrubHub has made it possible to get real Chinese delivered (i.e., from Chinatown) I have been ordering so much I have trouble remembering what we had. Let's see - Shanghai dumplings great; twice cooked pork fantastic; Shanghai chow mein (fat noodle) really good; Yang Zhou fried rice was super; price is fair (ate it for three days), and delivery was on time all the way from Chinatown. Will definitely order again after get through GrubHub's Chonatown list.

ive ordered twice so far and been very pleased - delivery has always been early (ordered weekend lunch day and weekday afternoon) and the foods always been nice and hot still. the portions sizes are generous and ive enjoyed trying some different things on their menu. the entrees have always been great (my sesame beef always arrives still crispy and never chewy), and most of the appetizers/dim sum great too. the only thing ive ordered that i wouldnt order again have been the soups (egg drop, wonton - only come in pint size), not that theyre bad, theyre average and id rather try new things off the menu.

Orange chicken was mediocre... probably better fresh. The crab rangoon was pretty good but not unique/special.

Loved the potstickers and crab rangoon. General's chicken was good but a little soggy. Delivery was on time and order was accurate.
