    Ordered kung pow chicken with tap water. Service was very good but this is the worst Chinese food I have ever tried. Couldn't even eat more than a few bites. No flavor, just very bland. Tap water definitely needs a filter. Definitely try a different restaurant.

    Had the General Tso chicken and the Mlngolian beef. I truly believe the lunch special here can't be beat. I LOVED it! From the presentation, to the perfectly breaded chicken, to the wonton soup, to the eggroll.

    Soup.... Amazing

    The food here is amazing. My sister and I ordered shrimp fried rice and shrimp lo mein..... we were so hungry that I totally forgot to take pics of our food before we started eating sorry guys!! Hopefully the soup would grab your attention. The staff here is also sweet. Oh, and they have a private area for large groups/parties. That was pretty kool to see.

    This was my first time here and upon arriving it was a bit confusing, there is no one up front to greet or sit you. Maybe a sign up front telling you that you must order first then go sit would be helpful. Magic China had great flavors, but the experience was less than perfect by food being cold upon arrival. Rice was cold and the egg roll was in fryer too long and cold. Brought food to the office and just warmed it here. I'll try one more time.

    Good fast Chinese food. My kids and I enjoy the take-out. The food is hot and delicious. At the moment they do not allow dine-in only carry out. The prices are fair for the portion size. You have the option of fried rice or white rice. I'm not a fan of the egg rolls but the cheese ragoon are nice side substitutes. The only con I can think of is the sauce can spill out of the container. We like the chicken on the stick but the sauce goes all over the place. It is very sticky so keep that in mind when removing it from the bag. Overall, the family and I like this place and would recommend giving it a try. You can find menu online or posted next to the door.

    Hot egg drop soup with crunchies

    After about a dozen visits, I am ready to give this place a 5 star rating. My wife and I have had their shrimp chop suey, orange chicken, sesame chicken, pan-fried dumplings, egg rolls, and egg drop soup. All of Magic China's food has been delicious. I am convinced that they don't let anything leave the kitchen that they would not personally eat. Oh, did I mention that not once have they skimped on putting plenty of egg in their egg drop soup - despite the high price of eggs of late. And, their egg drop soup is not watered down either!

    We have eaten in once and take out once and the food is just OK. The egg drop soup is good, but the last time it was too salty.

    Convenient location easy to get to. It's clean and has enough seating. The cashier was super Nice…read moreand attentive. The egg drop soup with delicious, as well as the crunchies that they provide. However, the meal it's Self. The rice tasted old and stale, even the chicken tasted a bit off. The lunch special also came with the option of Rangoon/egg roll/etc. I got the Rangoon, it was meh.

    On this days adventure I found myself at "Happy Dragon" in the New Braunfels area. It's an Asian…read moreCuisine restaurant with a good menu selection. But let me begin from the beginning, the establishment is located in a strip mall close to Lowe's, you have plenty of parking and as you enter you can view a good amount of seating. As you approach the counter you can see the menu on the wall but there is also paper menus. The personnel are charming and helpful to guide you through the menu. So now the most important part for a restaurant, I chose the "Egg Rolls" to begin my journey, then I selected the "General Tso's Chicken" a personal favorite of mine. The dish comes your choice of different items to accompany your meal I choose the Crab Rangoons with Wonton Soup. So let me start with the egg rolls, they were crunchy, tasteful and with sweet and sour sauce made them wonderful. Now the wonton soup with the crispy wontons was another great addition with the flavor of a well made soup. Now the main dish, the general tso's chicken, was excellently cooked and very delicious the fried rice was equally delicious and the crab rangoons were very tasty. Overall this is a good option for Asian food and I highly recommend it.

    Update: Gave them another try. Ordered for pickup from their online website. Super easy. I paid in…read moreperson. Got a text when food would be ready for pickup. Essy breezy! I ordered their house special chili oil wontons and general tso's chicken with white rice, crab ragoon, and egg drop soup. Food was plentiful for price and flavorful. House special chili oil wontons: I expected steamed or boiled wontons in chili oil, but the wontons were fried and then tossed in chili oil. While the wontons were nonlonger crunchy (my fault for picking up late), it was flavorful. Had a slight heat to it that wasn't over powering and the wontons were a pork filling. For an appetizer, it filled me up for lunch. It came with 8 fried wontons, but I expected them to be smaller. They were regular size. I was full from just the appetizer. Definitely will order this item again! General tso's: this was by far the best I've ever had and I love general tso's. What I look for is the heat and the crunch. It had both and it was plentiful for a lunch special. Definitely worth the price. It had more kick to it then the chili oil wontons, but not a lot to where it burns your mouth. Just enough heat to warm up the back of your mouth. I LOVED it! Definitely recommend and would get this item again!

    Tucked in a strip mall in north San Antonio, I was hopeful walking into a clean and friendly place…read moreready for seating service or takeout. Ordered basic takeout as a test but the food did not blow us away. Certainly expected Americanized Chinese food, but the flavor was meh. Willing to give it another try for sit down but really hoped for more.
