China Express - Bethany Beach

I ordered takeout from this restaurant. The fried rice was simply rice with soy sauce, no vegetables included. The egg rolls and spring rolls contained only lettuce, lacking other ingredients. The fried dumplings were the standout item, flavorful and enjoyable. The chicken chow mein appeared appetizing, but lacked taste. Overall, a very disappointing experience and I do not plan to return. The service was adequate for takeout, and the atmosphere was lacking. The price per person was $10-20. Food: 1/5, Service: 3/5, Atmosphere: 1/5.

The food was average and the restaurant uses an answering service to take orders, which incorrectly states that the wait time is an hour. My food had already been waiting for 20 minutes when I arrived, which was disappointing. Overall rating: Food - 2, Service - 2.

Now for the average aspects: The wait time was quite long. We called just after 5 on a Thursday afternoon, so we expected some wait time, but when we were told it would be 60-65 minutes, my sister was surprised. However, we were not in a rush, so it was manageable. When I arrived at 6:10, I had to wait in a cramped area with other customers for about ten minutes before receiving my order and making payment. The fried rice that came with our meal was plain and lacked any vegetables. It was tasty, but I was expecting some added ingredients, such as vegetables. Also, the total price exceeded $40 for the three meals. While the portions were large enough to have leftovers (which I ate over two days), if you are looking for budget-friendly options, this may not be the best choice. In conclusion, it was a mixed experience. I have heard great reviews about this place, and I understand the appeal as the taste and quality of the food were commendable. However, the pricing and wait times were on the higher end. I'm glad I tried it and will keep their menu, but next time I crave Chinese food, I will likely opt for a more affordable and convenient option.

Translated into English, this review praises the restaurant for its delicious food, excellent service, and recommends some must-try dishes for a takeout dinner experience.
