China Lantern Cafe

Amazing service, amazing food, amazing everything! The waiter (who is the owner) is very kind and pleasent to br around. The food is AMAZING, every type that they have is great. The people in some of the reviews say that the food is "microwaved, horrible, the worst chinese food" are wrong. The food is all cooked NOT using microwaves, the chinese food is AMAZING, and everything about the restaurant is amazing. I realize I say "amazing" a lot but that is the only word i can use to describe this fantastic restaurant. I know the cook and she is very nice and just an amazing cook. I love this restaurant, the look, the family vibes i get, everything. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone that wants great food(:

Permanently closed now but the Chinese was not good. Mexican food was alright.

although the staff, (and likely the owner) are friendly, the food was bland, sparse and overpriced. the restaurant was hot, and bordered on grimy. I travel a lot, this place completes for the worst Chinese dining experience I have had ever. it's time to update the menu and decor inherited from the last owner if they want to stay in the game.
