The orange chicken was really good - like, I'd order that again without hesitation. They give you plenty! I don't even know how I'm going to eat all the leftovers. I was expecting the small to be... well, small. Anyway. The pepper steak was just okay. It lacked flavor for me. And of course, lots of giant peppers instead of slicing them down...and a crap ton of veggies without much steak. But that's typical. The shrimp fried rice... Tasteless. I don't usually like to add more soy sauce to my food (and I didn't), but you're gonna need to drizzle the sauce from one of the other meals onto it or SOMETHING because homegirl was tasteless. Disappointing. The shrimp and broccoli was fine - exactly what you'd expect. Everything was packaged well, so I'd say attentive service for takeout. Not sure what it looks like on the inside/bathrooms/cleanliness, etc. since we did takeout, but I would go back for the orange chicken unless I find a place with better + solid shrimp fried rice. P.S. Remember when they used to automatically put eggs in the fried rice without you having to pay extra? I miss those days.

As someone in Indianapolis who is quite particular about authentic Asian cuisine, I am absolutely…read moredelighted to have discovered this spot! Even with the springtime rush making the parking a bit of a challenge, the atmosphere inside is wonderfully inviting. I managed to snag a darling little corner for myself, and the energy was just perfect. The hospitality here is truly top-tier; both the cashier and the gentleman behind the counter are simply lovely. My waiter was beyond charming and presented a menu with an impressive array of sophisticated choices everything from Sichuan Beef Noodle Soup to Steamed Eggplant and Beef Pancakes, with most entrees beautifully priced between $15 and $20. I decided on the Beef Noodle Soup ($12), and oh my goodness it arrived in a mere ten minutes! Talk about impeccable service. The broth was divine, and the meatballs were prepared to perfection. I was so caught up in the moment that I completely forgot to snap a photo before finishing every last bite! It was an absolute triumph of a meal. I am officially obsessed and will most certainly be back with my camera ready next time

Comprised of some communal bench seats and one round table, to dine-in is baptismal. While you sit scanning the space, it's evident that English is held secondarily to the vast majority nearby. Places like these ignite my desire to persist in learning. Like a Pabst Blue Ribbon or roadside Waffle House, this experience isn't for everybody. Gifts of peace and low prices are the sweet reward of other's inability to enjoy the gritty side of life. Expect the same crew holding it down here, with the biggest of smiles radiating from the cashier. Somebody who can laugh at me declining chopsticks because "I know myself" is a magnetic honesty that keeps me coming back. She allows the customer to peruse this menu in silence and may kindly tack on some extra bites when you order late enough in the shift. Much love.

But they moved us to the front without a hassle. We ordered Fried rice, Spring rolls, Pad see, Chicken lo mei. Everyone really enjoyed their meal. The service was very warm and inviting. The atmosphere was fun including a robot that brought my daughter a slice of birthday cake!

One notable exception on the northwest edge of town is Tian Fu. It's in a residential area, in strip mall, with convenient parking. Tian Fu offers authentic Chinese and Japanese (sushi) food. For this day and age, and considering the quality and quantity of the food, the prices were reasonable, and a good value: Soup Dumpling $10.95; Shanghai Rice Cake 11.95; Old Mama's Pickled Pepper Fish $18.95; and Golden Tofu $13.95. The food was great. We would return. Note: there is a similarly named restaurant on the eastern edge of Indy. Not sure if it's under the same ownership. It's on E Washington Street, just west of Rt 465.

Several times I have ordered from Chow Express thinking I might leave enough left over from the dinner to snack a bit for breakfast before I start the next day. Dude!!! I cannot fathom how they absolutely PACK a container with so much food. A typical round plastic takeout dish with the clear cover is filled so full that there is NO air inside the container. It is 100% food. And the outside is spotless. How?!? I am not complaining. In about 40 good years of adulting, I have figured out that a good Chinese/Asian restaurant has to do three things amazingly before you can be assured that the rest of the menu is trustworthy - hot-n-sour soup, eggrolls, and pork-fried rice. If any of those three things suck, just walk away. Hot-n-sour soup = Amazing. Eggrolls = perfection. Pork-fried rice = superb. The smokiness of the dishes, the rich seasoning, the flavorful spice (not particularly the heat spice) are all mouth-wateringly good. You CANNOT go wrong with this place. I am a large man and it takes me THREE sittings to finish a standard entree. Price is perfect. Preparation is fast. This is THE BEST Chinese food in Indy. Believe that!!!
