Andy's Carry Out - Arlington

The steak egg rolls are fantastic! But I'm curious about what's actually inside them.

During my first visit today, I had a fantastic experience. I ordered the sesame chicken along with fried dumplings. While many Chinese restaurants I’ve tried in the area have a similar style, this place truly stands out with its unique flair. The portions of the dumplings were generous, and it was clear they were made fresh rather than frozen, as the texture was excellent. The coating of the sesame chicken was just right—not too crispy, but not too soft either. The meat inside was tender; I could easily break the larger pieces in half with a plastic fork. I’m definitely planning to return as a regular customer!

I called to place an order, and the first thing the person said was, "What do you want?" Seriously? When I went to pick up the food, the staff had such grumpy faces—no greeting, nothing— not even a thank you after I paid. Good customer service should be a priority, but I doubt I'll be coming back.

Eating is of great value and quality. order and go, very easy!

Update: just moved back into the neighborhood. I have to say, the Chinese-American cooking is definitely better than when I left. They got the wok temps right, it's a bit less oily, and the quality is what I expect from a mid-market takeout. The wings still bring joy to my heart and fat to my ?. I'm'a up them to four stars.(Six years ago) A decent neighborhood carry-out. Standard Chinese-American, kinda greasy, but it fills the need. The chicken wings are on point. You can't go wrong with the wings.
