    chicken, rice, and coleslaw
    Lucy M.

    Okay so first off- this is not my plate.....a colleague raves about this place having delicious food. So myself and two other colleagues placed an Uber eats order. I ordered a General Tso chicken- which was plentiful but not appetizing (to me) but I did give it to someone who enjoyed it and said it was delicious (I didn't get a chance to take a pic of it). The pieces of chicken were gmo huge. The spicy was too sweet for my liking. My colleague ordered a two-meat entree (I think that is what it is called) her order consists of Hog Maws (did I spell/say it right?) and pig feet... I'm not sure which is which in the photo but when I tell you she left nothing but BONEZ (not bones) that was all that was left along with the rice... apparently, they did not give her "rice & gravy" as she requested. She said the coleslaw was good but it doesn't look like it has any seasoning JMO.... I decided to post this review for those who considered eating here for pig feet/ hog maws.....

    Dessert at china inn !
    hiii b.

    Food : there are different choices to choose from in food ! I recommend the dessert in the photo !! Service : friendly never rude ! If you have a large party or over 3 you will be charged $5 ! ( just a heads up !) Ambiance : clean ! windows are a little dirty but there still clean unless some places with dead bugs on the window and never clean them !

    I could only give it three starts because there is not a lot of variety in the food. The service was great very accommodating. However the food average nothing out of the ordinary, it's pretty much a combination between some Panda Express and some Cracker Barrel. If you go on a Sunday be prepared to make food lines that can take up to 15 to 20 minutes to get through. Ambiance was ok, we were seated next to an dry aquarium which wasn't kept up and looked a little gross other than that the very else was well cleaned. Unfortunately this would be the one and only stop we make here.

    Chow Time really busy

We were greeted at the door and seated promptly. The restaurant has a bustling commotion and an upbeat vibe inside. I ordered coffee and a juice and my mother ordered a coke. We put in our food order right away with our friendly server, and it was a fairly short wait before we had food on the table. Mom had a ham melt with Gruyère and tomato, served with potatoes. I had a Barbacoa beef breakfast bowl with eggs, black beans, pico, tortilla chips, ranchero sauce, shredded beef, and a lime crema. They were mindful of my avocado allergy, and the food was delicious. Reasonably priced, great service, a good atmosphere, and a good experience overall. Worth checking out if you're looking for breakfast in germantown.

It's a standard fast food but it gives the vibe of a family owned dine in restaurant. I do not have a single complaint.

Freaking phenomenal!!!! This was an amazing choice for lunch!

Place was decorated well and had a great feel with some oldies playing the background. Place could have been a little cleaner but not much to complain about. The gentleman behind the counter was very helpful and helping us decide what we wanted. My husband and myself got 'The Police', a burger with brisket, a 1/4 lb patty, cheese, bbq sauce, pickle and mayo (we opted out on the onion) and we ordered the meal and chose fries. Meal comes out super fresh and piping hot. Fries were crispy, crunchy, and hot. The brisket was cooked very well and basically melted in your mouth, as for the beef patty.. it was flavored well and made the burger even better. And BBQ sauce was on point. Overall I'd eat here again next time I take a trip out here. Well done.
