    Last time I was at the auto shop and saw this small establishment with their delivery cars--been wanting to try it out for a while now! If you're working and want a quick and filling lunch, you go here. I got the beef and broccoli lunch special and it came with an egg roll. The egg roll was crispy and big but filling ratio was mostly cabbage. The beef and broccoli was a bit too liquid-y and was missing the wok heat flavor. The lo mein was pretty good but a bit too liquid-greasy; my boyfriend had to doctor it up with these Japanese bachan sauce. The hunan beef tasted exactly like the beef and broccoli and the sauce was very neutral and the beef tasted like... well beef! Broccoli still had its crunch! Overall, it's a good choice if you want a filling meal, and I'm glad this establishment exists. A lot of workers come here and they do good business, and they are fast. Their prices have also not gotten too high due to inflation and they make great deals. Not the most flavorful American Chinese restaurant I've been to, but it works! Quick grab and go and small but clean place. Probably I should have asked for more spicy, and maybe the general tso or orange chicken instead. Overall, I am definitely willing to come back and try their other dishes.

    Cheap, good, and fast. You usually don't get all three, but once in a blue moon you do and if you don't want to wait for a moon that's blue, pull up to China Express! Hole-in-the-wall with no sit-down area is why I believe they are able to keep the prices down, and food quality up! When I say they give you generous portions, I'm usually getting lunch and dinner as I would be in a coma to eat all they give in one sitting.

    The outside of the restaurant. If you follow the directions on the gps you shouldn't have trouble locating.

    Excellent food, it's an order pickup place only. I recommend calling in your order to pickup, though you can order at the counter as well.

I used Toast to place my order and simply went in to pick it up and it was ready on time for my arrival. I re-heated what I got in the microwave oven and that didn't take long and it tasted great. I got their cumin beef and their long pepper chicken. Both had the correct, and diverse flavors I enjoy from "non-American-style" Chinese joints. The heat level was also perfect; nice & spicy!! The textures of the proteins were spot on. The amount of seasonings and everything were great too. Definitely would return!

This place has a robust take-out business (DoorDash drivers running in and out). It's great for foodies, but also a noisy place (not ideal for a first date). Free parking is easy in a strip mall lot in downtown Vienna between the CVS and Giant. On the plus side, it has authentic Szechuan-style dishes, including dried cauliflower (savory blend of flavors with a hint of peppercorn), the baby bok choy with tofu skins (to enjoy and refresh the palate), Lazi Chicken (fried chicken bits with peppercorn), and stir-fry green beans. My sons devoured the Lazi Chicken dish and wished that it had more chicken chunks. Small bowls of white rice are included. They also have American-style Chinese food (e.g., kung-pao chicken) but we only ordered a small number of Szechuan-style dishes. On the minus side, it's a tiny space with a limited number of tables (most accommodate up to 4 people). Noise level is high, but maybe that was because it was Saturday night. Overall, we'll continue to order takeout from this place! But we may visit again during off-peak hours.

They were able to accomodate us. The owners/managers were very helpful and friendly. I opted for the Steak teriyaki bento box with came with steak (medium rare) teriyaki, rice, 3 tempura shrimp, 2 tempura veg, 3 cali rolls, 3 gyozas, miso soup & salad for about $22.00. The miso soup was good but the salad was avg. The dressing got really watery. The gyozas & Cali rolls were fair but generous servings of tempura were outstanding! Crisp & hot. Even after 10 mins. Not oily or greasy. The rice was cooked properly. The only misstep was the steak. The steak was also cooked properly at medium rare & looked beautiful. The inside was nice and pink. But upon chewing, the steak was not tender at all. Very very chewy. When you were young, you were taught fo chew at least 30 times. Well, this exceeded the recommended amount of chewing. The steak has a nice beefy flavor but just tough. SHAME. Overall, Sweet Ginger is a very popular and nice place to have Japanese food. The sushi plates (not pictured) were colorful and beautiful. My cousins finished the plates so thats a good thing. The steak was just not great for me.

Probably not the best place for large groups at peak times. Lunch is good for kids. Not a bad date night place. Worth the drive? YES! Probably been eating here for about 10 years. While there's been long gaps between visits because it can be a bit of a hike to get here, the food has always been quite good. NEVER had a bad meal or bad encounter here after all these years. This place has been really consistent in terms of food quality & every person who comes with me has always enjoyed their meals. Sometimes service hasn't felt all that welcoming, but it has never been bad. Food has always been delicious, fresh, beautifully plated, and the servers have always been pleasant, attentive, helpful, and accommodating. Parking is easy here which a definite plus!

We've passed…read moreHunan Cafe many times, but when we suddenly noticed a Halal sign, we decided to give it a try--and we absolutely do not regret it. This place is a hidden gem. It's small but clean, with friendly service and excellent food quality. Prices are what you'd expect for the area, but a big plus is that there's easy parking. Most importantly, the food tasted genuinely authentic. The vegetables and meat had that perfect crunch--fresh, well-cooked, and flavorful without being heavy or greasy. Everything was so tender it barely needed chewing. We ordered the crispy beef, Singapore rice (I think!), and a few other dishes, and everything was spot on.

It was basically stir -fried wide noodles with some veg. It wasn't even spicy. $16.50!!! Please stick to just Chinese/Chinese-American food and leave the Thai food to the Thai people. Fried rice and crab rangoon were good.
