The restaurant decor is dated, but the food itself is good. Reasonably priced, fast service.

This I know to be true: about an hour and a half after eating some pork fried rice, some orange chicken and 3 spring rolls from Chen's Dynasty (delivered by GrubHub) this last Monday evening, I began projectile vomiting and having explosive bloody diarrhea which lasted all Monday night, all day Tuesday, into Wednesday, and I spent most of today, Thursday, (now Friday) in the hospital's Emergency Department, where I was diagnosed with gastroenteritis (inflammation of the stomach and intestines, typically resulting from bacterial toxins or viral infection and causing vomiting and diarrhea). I had to be given fluids via IVs because I was so dehydrated and unable to hold even water down. I received a strong dressing-down for having waited so long to go to the ED.
Conjecture: Was it food poisoning?
By my understanding of what the docs all said, it most likely was. They apparently could find no evidence of a virial cause. And since it occurred so soon after ingesting my meal from Chen's Dynasty (and I had not eaten anything all Monday, just drank my usual bottled juice and coffee drinks), it's extremely difficult for me to *not* believe that there was some causality there. JMHO.
Will I eat from Chen's Dynasty again? "Likely not."

I ordered through DoorDash and they have a 4.7 rating on there. So, I thought I'd give it a try.
My order:
- Chow Fun (no meat option - they automatically add pork, beef and shrimp)
- Hot & Sour Soup
- Crab Puffs
All of three were bland. The Chow Fun didn't come with sauce (see photo), it was so bland that after two bites I didn't want anymore. The soup was super oily (see photo). I like how they give 8 crab puffs but they're unfortunately bland.
They also didn't give me any utensils, soy sauce or the sweet sauce for the crab puffs...
Don't recommend. -

Guilty favorite delivery. Next to Party Pizzas and Hostess Donettes: so bad it's good. It's the nostalgic, greasy Chinese food you grew up with. Perfect for the day after

The first few bites made me think this was decent Americanized, guilty pleasure Chinese food. Turns out, it's just the bad version of that. But, as I say, even a bad doughnut is still a doughnut, so I ate it all and I'd do it again.
The crispy fried wontons looked like giant tortellinis without filling. They were crisp on the putter parts (more like stale) but chewy (and stale) in the middle. Not great. The general tso's didn't seem like it was fried before drenched in the sauce (which was actually pretty good). There was nothing crisp about them, it was basically cooked chicken thigh in sauce. I did like that the sauce came in spicy levels. I love spicy, but keep in mind that medium might be too much for a lot of people.
The vegetable fried rice was crazy greasy. In a good way. In addition to your typical addition of what we're frozen peas and carrots, there were mushrooms and onions. So that's something, I guess.
I ordered this food on Amazon Eats. It was a-okay.
