First time here, had been hearing good things and were in the area so decided to try takeout. My…read morefamily of 4 agreed that the chicken itself is the best we've had, compared to any place in Springfield. Fresh, cooked perfectly and not too thick of a batter. Thankfully we all got our sauce on the side because my son has a severe nut allergy and he ordered the general which had peanuts all over the chicken. Since our sauce was separate he took the sweet and sour chicken and used his general sauce on it. We also had the sesame and cashew for my husband. All the sauces were good but they are very thin/soupy compared to what we are used to. Husband said cashew sauce was very garlicky and my sesame could have been a bit more savory for my taste. Our biggest complaint was these meals come with steamed rice, not fried, and there was nothing on the menu about fried rice so I'm guessing there is only steamed. That being said, it was good but needed the sauce on it. Also, meals don't come with crab Rangoons or anything else. All sides must be ordered separately. We just stuck with the meals this time. I would eat here again and would try the Rangoons or spring rolls.

So when my husband brought it to me, I cannot believe how tiny it was. It was in a 12 oz Styrofoam cup it wasn't even full. I mean they didn't even hardly meet the 2/3 mark. It was 6.00 out the door ! I was still in the parking lot and asked if we could just give it right back and get our money back. He said no. I was pretty bummed out because it's unpresentable. I'm embarrassed to give it to my daughter because we've had such great wonton soup in the past at other restaurants and they put it in a really nice styrofoam small bucket . But when I got home and put it in a bowl and it was nothing but broth and two tiny fried wontons and a speck of green onion and 2 mushrooms . I was livid. I don't usually write bad reviews but I wanted to warn people. Do not get the wonton soup. I took pictures . That's so wonderful I am able to add these pictures. It will 100 % percent proof of what I'm telling you. The picture of the soup is in a very small Chinese Bowl. It also had 2 pot stickers instead of wontons. One had no meat ! Such a let down.

My bad, I reviewed the wrong one, but I'm sure this location is good too! Here's my review from last year on the other location: I could tell by looking at the photos and reviews on Yelp that this place was going to be wonderful. Thankfully, when we finally gave it a shot, we were not disappointed. Talk about made fresh. Everything was so delicious and freshly prepared. Flavors were spot on. The service was fantastic. They always made sure that our drinks were filled and we had everything that we needed. My absolute favorite dish was the fried green beans with minced pork. Get it with extra minced pork and you'll love it. The steamed dumplings and pancake appetizer are also really good. Highly recommend! They also have clean restrooms with an extra large sink outside the restroom area so you can quickly wash your hands if you don't actually need to use the restroom. Pretty cool. We can't wait to go back for more!

I was at once both intrigued and more than a little doubtful. However, I've now been here half a dozen times (every time I visit Springfield) and I can say that most of what I've had has been extremely authentic, especially the spicy stuff! Having lived in LA and also in Asia, I'm pretty strict about what I am willing to call authentic. Corner 21 isn't perfect and a few of the dishes fell flat, but you won't find anything better in town. I'm giving it full marks for being such a pleasant surprise in a seriously unexpected place. edit: Almost forgot to mention that the portions are quite big. Portion sizes were definitely more Springfield size than big city sizes!
