The gravy for the Egg Foo Young had a not so good smell and taste. This is the first time I've experienced this from the restaurant.

Good flavor but lacking actual food. They try to fill up the portions with more veggies than meat but even so not enough of anything ,not worth their prices

We love the food from Enlai. My daughter loves their wings. Portions are pretty big and it is not expensive at all. We usually order online and pick up the food. I highly recommend this restaurant

We are LONG TIME customers of En Lai. The food has changed in the last few months and it's just not as good. It's not bad, but it's different and not what we are used to. The new egg rolls are really not good. They are small. The beef and broccoli used to have nice big pieces of broccoli and a rich sauce. I will say that the General Tsao's Chicken is excellent. We just liked the previous menu better.

Egg rolls appear to be much smaller. Generals chicken was dry with next to 0 sauce on them. Never had an issue with them in the past. Hopefully this isn't the future of them. I will try them again in the future then make a decision.

Food was good. Driver was cool. But I only received 2 out of 3 of the Pepsi's I ordered. I didn't call back bc one was just to hit that $15 minimum. Just next time make sure I have everything I ordered please.

This place is great. The people are nice, the food is cheap, and the quality of the food is very good. It's better than most of the American style Chinese restaurants out there. I'm never disappointed here and always happy.
