Best WLM Reviews
I know my picture was taken after I combined everything. I’m here to tell you looks can be deceiving. This is the most delicious, close to authentic Asian dish I’ve had in a long time. Wonton soup was wonderful. Bourbon chicken lunch comes was delicious. Will definitely order from here again.
My experience began with a rather unpleasant phone call. The young lady who answered the phone was extremely short and unprofessional and seemed disinterested in taking my order. Despite my efforts, I felt rushed and interrupted while trying to put my order in. When I arrived to pick up my food, I addressed the issue with the same staff member who answered the phone. Unfortunately, my concerns were met with indifference and a blank stare. "To make matters worse, the food didn't live up to the standard I expected. The shrimp egg roll was practically swimming in grease, making it impossible to enjoy. It was a letdown after my previous positive experiences at another local Chinese restaurant. I couldn't help but compare this experience to my usual go-to, "China Inn" by Dollar General, where the service is impeccable, and the food is consistently good. This ordeal served as a reminder not to stray from businesses that genuinely value and appreciate their customers. Regrettably - a simple takeout order turned into a disappointing experience. While everyone has off days, customer service should remain a priority. I've learned my lesson and will be sticking to China Inn where the young lady always has the biggest smile on her face!
SWILL ALERT!!!!!

When we started BBDO over 5 years ago, I made a conscious decision not to review Chinese restaurants, not due to xenophobia or any such nonsense, but solely due to the fact that they all server basically the same Anglo-influenced Chinese fare. Then we realized execution could play a factor here and allow a separation if I used a baseline. After a survey of several thousand (thank you one and all) Big Boy Dining Out readers, the dishes chosen are General Tso's Chicken, steamed dumplings and the standard egg rolls.
Entering the place I was immediately overcome with a dismal vibe. It was clean and neat and everything it just didn't give off a very happy atmosphere. Coco is our moderately charming fùwùyuàn although I don't think she spoke any English at all, which just pointing out here, would be helpful in the service industry in a country where the overwhelming majority of the populace speak it.
At this point, I would start peppering this review with a fair amount of charentisimistic phrases, but that would hinder our BBDO policy of calling it like it is. The General Tso Chicken, which was invented in California, must have been left over from the laying of the transcontinental railroad as it had the consistency of the gizzard and tasted excruciatingly bad. The meat was impossible to chew without the aid of mechanized jaws and it seemed to be drenched in maple syrup.
The dumplings were just like the dumplings I have consumed many times in the past. They were steamed and contained a mix of meat and veggies. The egg roll was 2 instead of 4 inches long. Other than that, it tasted like the millions of egg rolls I've had in my lifetime. The accompanying sauces for both the dumplings and egg roll were as expected. Not freshly made, but tasty enough.
As I was paying my bill, I took a passing glance at the owner who poured over a checkbook with a very unsightly look on his face.
The Big Boy says, “With over 100 Chinese restaurants in Brevard County, hopefully, the checkbook perusal means this dump is going out of business. Don't. Just don't”
1st time there and the last. We order take out the food was absolutely horrible. The egg roll was more like the size of a spring roll. My fried rice was soggy with no flavor. The chicken was awful. They were not friendly at all. I tried calling to see if we could even bring the food back and they won't answer the phone
I ordered from this restaurant a few weeks back and got over $25 worth of food. One of the items in that order was crab rangoon. When I got home and opened the bag of crab rangoon, there was a crumpled up used napkin inside the bag with them. I definitely wasn’t going to eat them so I called the restaurant and let them know the situation. The woman over the phone told me, the next time I came in I could get a free one and they would write it down under my number. I went back today trying to claim my crab rangoon and that same woman told me. She didn’t know what I was talking about. She didn’t even bother to look up that information. I told her I didn’t want it if she wasn’t going to honor what she told me and confirmed over the phone when my order was placed. I’m good on this place.
The pancakes that accompanied the moo shu pork were raw spring roll wrappers, and were inedible seeing as how they were gummy and difficult to pull apart. The pork in the moo shu was definitely leftover pork rib meat, not freshly prepared. It was dry probably because it was twice cooked. The egg drop soup was extremely watery and not filtered water at that. When I say watery, I mean it did not taste like chicken broth at all- it tasted like tap water with egg in it.
We also got shrimp lo mein. The shrimp were the tiny little “popcorn” shrimp sized, overcooked, and tough.
I won’t waste anymore money here.
The people that work here are very nice and the place is clean. The food was terrible. The ingredients were fresh, but it tasted like it was cooked in a pan that had something burned in it. I had to throw it away :-(
DO NOT GO THERE ! I usually always get the Large Chicken and Rice soup and it’s USUALLY good but the past 2 times I’ve gone here now they have ripped me off ! Total should’ve been $3.95 and I paid with a $10 bill and received $4.50… she gave me the WRONG CHANGE.. I should’ve been given $6.05 … I even tipped the women.. didn’t notice this until I got back into my car.. if they do this to every customer than they’d make a fortune.. money adds up. NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN. I hate feeling robbed.. the women was even giving the customer in front of me an attitude when he didn’t understand the lunch combo.. she was very hostile with him.. this place went from my favorite spot to the WORST !!!
