    Orange Chicken Lunch Special
    Christopher S.

    Pro - The Szechuan Style Beef Noodle Soup is pretty good, which includes house-made noodles and a rich, hearty broth. At 10.25, the price is acceptable. This is about the only thing worthy of a visit to this Chinese-American establishment. Con - The weekday lunch specials come with a spring roll (they advertise it as an egg roll but when I think of egg rolls, I imagine triple the size with much more filling) and fried rice (this is a joke! it's just white rice tossed in a wok with imitation soy sauce). Unfortunately, there are a lot of Chinese-American food options in Herndon, but none of them are something to rave about. You would need to trek out a bit further to Chantilly, Reston, Vienna, or Falls Church if you are looking for good/great Chinese restaurants.

    Ordered pork chow mein expecting noodles because mein = noodles. When you Google "chow mein", it's a noodle dish. When you order chow mein from any other Chinese food restaurant, you get noodles. Instead, we got what is pictured. We called the restaurant and the lady got super defensive and said, "I don't know why customers get confused." Because this ain't chow mein, lady. And if you have to repeatedly call customers to tell them this isn't a noodle dish then that should tell you something. Don't blame the customers for being confused when it's called chow mein.

    *Update* Very addictive! I can't get enough. I've spent at least $500 here, and they know my order when I walk in. Good stuff! As a vegetarian, having almost everything on the menu have a vegetarian counter-part was awesome. Area was clean, food was decently quick, and it was about what I expect size wise. My meal came with a container of white rice and a fortune cookie that was uneatably stale, but whatever- it was classically poor in grammar. Something like "Your love life and will be happy soon!". Wooden chopsticks are in a bin to the left of the register if you need them. *edit* I've now come here every day for a week, and I'm still not tired of the Vegetarian Sesame Chicken! Waiting for an orange chicken just to try something else right now. Pro tip! Order the dinner size, even if it's lunch! There's so much food that I always have enough to eat till I'm full (I'm a smaller dude, 140Lbs) but also have enough for a second meal later that night. Total comes to $11 or so, and I'd say that's a great deal for 2 meals! Upgrading to 5 stars as long as they keep the prices like t I'm afraid to write how much I like this place, and how much of a better deal it is honestly than even Lotus Vegetarian down the road because I don't want it to get TOO busy, but it's worth it to make sure they stay busy :)

    Poor quality & over priced. I was working near here and decided to stop in for lunch. I had the seafood combo, it was tastless and terrible. Plus I got charged $15 bucks. I don't see how this place can stay in business.

    Decided to get Chinese today. This place is a bit small, but it's clean. The food was surprisingly good. It's kind of hidden on the side of this shopping center. The price was decent. Plating of the dishes were nice. I would definitely recommend this place. No complaints from me!

We've had plenty of bad experiences with Chinese buffet seafood making us feel sick--pretty sure I'm not the only one--but that has never happened here. The food is always freshly steamed and served hot when you order. I'm not a big fan of overly salty, heavy American-style seasoning, so I really appreciate that they can prepare it without all that. Also, my daughter doesn't eat much seafood, but they're flexible and let us order something simple like a mozzarella stick for her, which is a huge plus. Yes, there's an 18% gratuity for parties of 5 or more, but it feels fair for the quality and service. The gumbo you can order on the side is amazing, and the crab legs, mussels, clams, and shrimp are all fresh and delicious. It's $58.99 per person, which isn't cheap, but definitely worth it. Highly recommend.

We came on a busy Sunday, but everything moved fairly quickly. As a table, we split the fried calamari and Spanish chorizo mussels. Both of which were solid as appetizers. There was nothing too spectacular about them. As my main, I ordered the crab-stuffed salmon which came with mashed potatoes and sauteed vegetables. The salmon, while the best part of the dish, still left more to be desired. It was a bit dry and I didn't think the sauce was all that flavorful. The vegetables were fine, but the mashed potatoes were simply bad? They had the texture and flavor of instant mashed potatoes, slightly liquidity while being quite bland. I just don't think this place is worth coming back to.

We entered through the distillery, which was hopping, and slid into the secret cubbyhole that led to heirloom. The noisy World Cup crowd immediately silenced as we walked to the bar. It was like being in a completely different atmosphere. You can see from the photos attached that the meal was /cr B/ /ump I/ Teges. We started out with these great appetizers. I make a Barada burst at home, we learned in Italy how to do it. Yours was one of the best I've ever had. Same with the lemon ricotta ravioli. It's like we were in Sicily again. Sitting at the bar, we decided sure why not have their best steak? And we did. And it was. This was a Prime Kansas City strip, 18 ounce bone in. on top, a buttery braised shallot. Cooked to perfection, tasty and buttery. Our sides were these nice parmesan crispy, layered potatoes and a delightful grilled leaf spinach. We were a little disappointed we had no room for dessert. But we will be back! The service was spectacular. Sitting at the bar, it was like we had two personal servers and a third on standby at all times. It was fun watching them make the drinks, there is a lot of attention to detail. If you have not tried heirloom, I cannot recommend it more highly. We look forward to returning!

Now, when I address this to the manager "Daniel" I was quite repulsed by his response and demeanor which was very off-putting, stating that I am getting it for free where I correct him by stating that it's not "free" I had to purchase a drink, and it's a promotion your company runs, and if you're going to skimp the portions and have a shitty, pompous, and degrading response, then why run that kind of promotion at all ?!
