Best Orange Chicken
by food21 at Citysearch
I would agree with the earlier review: Good basic take out. Probably better overall take out can be found in the urban zone, but not in the northern wasteland. However, there is one exception. The orange chicken is the best I have experienced, anywhere. Now that statement does come with the disclaimer that I have only sampled OC at perhaps 25 restaurants, so there could be a better version to be had. If it is out there, please let me know. This one is heavenly. The breading is even, but not too thick. It is deep fried and served with a suace that definitely hints of orange, but doesn't overwhelm the palette. There is a slight bite to the suace, but it doesn't really qualify as spicey, unless you consider Taco Bell's medium salsa to be challenge. And best of all, there is a crispness in each bite that is lacking in most of the competition. The nuggets aren't overly fried and dried out to achive this delectable state. They are still moist inside, but avoid the "mushy" exterior commonly found with the competition. If you aren't familair with orange chicken, but are a fan of sesame chicken or General Tso's, here is a cousin of the two that will leave you begging for more.
- Pros: Good take out...great orange chicken
- Cons: Hole in the wall

Best Chinese takeout in all of Anoka County.

Great prices, generous portions, the house lo mein is to die for, as is the Hunan chicken, pork & beef. I wish they delivered.
- Pros: Fresh cuisine, quality preparation, very affordable, fast & friendly service.
- Cons: no delivery, in-house dining is kind of dingy.
