    Mapo tofu,  steamed dumplings and hot and sour soup
    Lily F.

    I'm stuck in my hotel without a car and need some food. This was one of the few places that deliver to my hotel. I never expect great things from Chinese take out because every menu seems to be the same (except the weird ones where they feel the need to add corn nuggets or something) and the quality isn't always great. Mapo tofu- I'm not a general tso or sweet and sour kind of person and so I try and stay away from those dishes and stick with ones that I'm familiar with. I was surprised that this dish was decent! I also told them to add pork (usually ground pork) and make it extra spicy. While the sauce is more just like the average brown sauce and not the true ma-la sauce, it made me happy enough. I encourage Americans to eat more of this. It truly is an underrated dish when made right. The steam dumplings were actually steamed and not boiled!! And you can actually taste the meat! Can you tell I don't expect much from take out places? I believe there were 8 or 10 dumplings for around $4 so not bad. 3 stars because my hot and sour soup was neither hot not sour and the lady who took my order was incredibly rude. It's like I was annoying her by placing an order. I hate that! And then the delivery guy gave me the stink eye like I just insulted his family honor or something. But I kinda want more dumplings now...

    This is a Chinese buffet in Florence. It's not the most glamorous buffet ever but it definitely has it's good points. The pepper chicken was definitely my favourite thing that I got from there although the General Tso chicken was pretty good also. Also my wife really liked their sushi bar as well so there's that. Their crab rangoon fell a little flat for me as there was no crab flavour whatsoever. The rest of the stuff I tried was kinda middle of the road. Lastly it's a rather inexpensive price tag so that's a positive. If you're looking for a cheap lunch or dinner that isn't half bad then give this place a try.

    I'm up in Florence for work and my group decided to try Smokin' This and That for lunch. The…read morereviews were solid but when we went on a Tuesday, we were a bit concerned because there was nobody there... Peak lunch hour. So either it's just not popular for lunch or it was just an off day. Our group ordered and we were relieved as 4 more patrons walked in... But even during our stay, no more people came in. Well... Our group ate our words and stuffed our faces with some really good barbecue. We all mostly got sandwiches but these sandwiches were huge honking sandwiches. I think our waitress said it was half a pound. I ordered the brisket sandwich and macaroni and cheese. The mac and cheese was creamy and warm. I was hoping for a sharper bite of cheese flavor but it was still good nonetheless. The brisket sandwich was really really good. It wasn't sliced brisket but was more "pulled" consistency, like pulled pork. It was moist and tender (not dry at all). The sauce was perfectly sweet and complimented the smoky, rich brisket. My colleagues couldn't finish theirs but one ordered the chicken sandwich and another a pork. All of them were pulled consistency and had excellent flavor of their respective meat (chicken and pork) but I preferred the brisket. Do yourself a favor if your craving barbecue and come to Smokin' This and That!

    My family was excited to try a new family owned BBQ spot. We left extremely disappointed. We found…read morethe overall experience below average, we won't return. Overall atmosphere is a bit over the top. Pros: The ribs were meaty, the pork sandwich was piled high. Cons: The coleslaw was mushy and tasteless, the Mac and cheese was inedible, 2 different beers we tried were flat, we did not like the BBQ sauce.
