Mei Zhen Chinese Restaurant

Their fried rice cannot be called fried rice. Their “fried rice” tastes and feels like ingredients half-assedly thrown into a rice cooker and left on for more than half a day resulting in a weird flaky yet mush texture. Orange chicken? I could not fathom why I was torturing myself with a harshly foul tasting sauce and a side of batter with some chicken. I rarely eat Panda Express but boy do I wish I had gotten their tiny bowls instead of shelling out restaurant menu prices. I don’t know what the hell Diane Hunter is talking about, hopefully it’s just a typo but this is in no way authentic Chinese Food nor does it resemble New York Style Chinese food. It’s an abomination and is what reminds me why I refrain from eating Chinese American food. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Andy’s Carry Out back in Northern Virginia. I love me some oily Chinese American food but this killed it for me and I usually finish everything I eat. This, however, I had to throw into the trash half eaten. Sadly enough I am now suffering from a stomachache while my girlfriend who took a few bites is experience the double dragon. Also $17 for this crappy experience is a huge regret of mine especially when I could’ve eaten literally anything else. Don’t waste your time or money here unless you enjoy sickening food that disgraces Chinese cuisine

I had my food delivered so I'll be leaving service and atmosphere blank. Food was made swiftly and delivered just as fast. The general tso's with shrimp and mixed vegetables was great. Food arrived fresh and incredibly hot. Great flavor on the chicken. All cooked perfectly. Sadly the hot & sour soup was incredibly bland, which was a disappointment given I love that soup. It was neither hot nor was it sour, it just lacked any general flavor. Fried pork wantons were unfortunately overcooked, had to tear the top off of them to make them edible, and the amount of dipping sauce they gave was unfortunately terribly small. The main dish though was fantastic. Excellent general tso's, shrimp cooked perfectly, vegetables fresh. The brown sauce could use some seasoning but was fine on its own either way.

I ordered delivery based upon the reviews. The food came really fast however it was terrible. It was hot and fresh but lack flavor. The hot and sour soup was gelatinous. I was disappointed since I order especially for the soup. The egg roll was fresh and not oily like some other places but everything else was less than memorable. Needless to say I won't order again.

It is take out only. The lady taking your order seems like she is rushing you. The food was ok I've had better. I wouldn't eat there again.

The whatever friedrice here is very bland( i mean it just rice and onion fried thats it. Not taste just soy salty) They don’t always have salt and pepper shrimp which is a most for Chinese place. There is no egg or veggies in the rice.
