Great food, very good consistent service. We've been taking out food from East Cafe for years and it's all good.
Surprisingly, I enjoyed my meal t this restaurant. First impression was that it felt very authentic and cozy. Loudness of the restaurant was medium due to multiple parties talking at the same time but nothing too loud. Service was great. As soon as I arrived I was seated within seconds. I was then asked if I would like anything to drink and served water within the next 10 seconds by a second worker. The lady gave me approximately 5 minutes or less to decide on what to eat before coming to take my order. The soup came out first and it was hot. I loved the overall flavor because it was neither too hot nor too sour. Just the perfect balance. The entree came out within 5-10 minutes afterwards and it was also piping hot. I started off with the egg roll. It wasn't extremely hot but still delicious. The entree itself was tasty as well since it was a good balance of meat and plenty of vegetables. I would love to come back here again and try their egg drop soup and other entrees as well. It's a good bang for your buck with tips included the total comes out around $15 for lunch pricing.
This is our go to when the family travels from Ft Collins for a family gathering. The staff and restaurant is very family friendly. Heck they have lots of patience especially with our crew. Ha. Three toddlers boys and a baby boy. I love how they have lunch portions until 4pm thank god. I hate to see their dinner portions. As it is we have to box it up for a later meal. The food always comes out hot and tasty. I've never gone in where there is a dirty table. Definitely recommend this establishment.
Love the Sunday's dinner at this place. They stuff is pretty friendly and the food is not too bad for the price. I highly recommend the wonton soup and the chicken and broccoli. This place can be packed on the weekends. The atmosphere is not too bad, it actually gives you a New York Chinese restaurant style.
I hardly ever come in because we order take out lunch from here so often. I usually don't do dine in dinner but when I do I always wonder why lol. Dining in has the same amazing food and really great service. They serve your soup individually to you, they immediately box leftovers from each course and are attentive throughout the entire meal. Really spot on service that you rarely get unless you're at high-end restaurants. The food is always delicious no matter what I order but some of my favorites are the egg foo young (my favorite place for it actually), combo hurricane, beef chow fun, wonton soup... and now on my list to try is the happy family because 3 other tables had it and it comes out on a sizzling platter like fajitas so now I need it in my life!
