Chopstick Express - Garland

I have been a loyal customer of this restaurant since it first opened. I used to live nearby and remember when a box of beef lo mein was only $6 (before inflation and COVID). Despite the rising prices due to inflation and the pandemic, this restaurant has kept their prices fair, especially when compared to other Chinese takeout places. You can still get a generous portion of food for a reasonable price, like a basic California Roll. This is not fine dining, but rather true American Chinese takeout. While there are some off days, my experience has been mostly positive. My go-to dishes are the beef lo mein and California roll, which are consistently flavorful and filling. I am usually satisfied with my meal and have leftovers for later. They also serve Kimlan soy sauce, which is a step up from the diluted Panda brand. If you are looking for a quick and affordable Chinese takeout meal, this is the place to visit.

The value for the price at this restaurant is exceptional! The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Unlike other places where stir-fry dishes are mostly onions, here they strike a good balance between meat and vegetables.

I have been coming to this restaurant for years and it never disappoints. The food is delicious and far superior to many other Chinese restaurants I have tried. The prices are reasonable and the portions are generous. While some people may have complaints about the Lo mein noodles, I personally am not a fan of them either. However, their rice dishes are outstanding. They truly excel in their rice dishes.

This is my family's go-to dinner spot and their fried rice with extra egg is something my young daughter will actually eat! Great food, great portions and friendly staff that haven't changed in years. Fantastic spot! Tip this small family location any chance you get. They deserve it.

Love the food. Good size portions and usually fresh.
