Ordered pickup. My order was being bagged right when I walked in. Food was hot and delicious. I have been so tired of these other places. I've found my new spot! I love that they offer plain fried rice and plain lo mein. Makes life so much easier for my picky family. The honey chicken was the best I've ever had!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Ordered pickup. My order was being bagged right when I walked in. Food was hot and delicious. I have been so tired of these other places. I've found my new spot!

I must say I was very disappointed with LQ Asian. I had the Mongolian beef and hot and sour soup. The beef was supper soft almost like a dumpling. It was very sweet and tasted extremely smokey, like liquid smoke. The hot and sour soup was not hot or sour. The texture was good but it was very bland. My partener had sesame chicken, which she described as barely average, and crab rangoon, which she described as greasy. The staff was friendly and the service was great however. The bill was almost $60. It was definitely not worth it. I do not recommend this restaurant.

I stopped there because I was hungry after leaving the local grocery store. I am from NYC and I'm always looking for good Chinese food that reminds me of home. It's been hard for me to do so and I've been living here in Alabama for over 16 years. So far I've found less than a handful of really good takeout restaurants. Well this is one. I've only had their roast pork egg foo young but it was exactly the flavor profile I was looking for. Delicious! I'll be back!
