Ive been ordering delivery from China Station since moving to the area. Every now and then, you just get in the mood for some good Chinese food, and China Stations food satisfies the craving.
One of the first times I ordered, it was before COVID, and I was surprised (pleasantly) when the gentleman delivering walked into my kitchen and unpacked the food for me, setting it all up on the counter while engaging me in friendly banter. It was so sweet and such a nice service! And the man was SO delightful.
Since COVID, the food is delivered to your door and handed to you. But everyone Ive met through delivery is kind and very friendly. As are the people who answer the phone at the restaurant.
And the food is good. We usually get the Cantonese dinner, but I can never forego getting honey-walnut shrimp and tomato-beef chow mein (which isnt technically on the menu, but theyve never denied my order, which I appreciate--and, boy, is it fabulous!). Since we always get too much food, the leftovers last us for several days, which is excellent because then I dont have to think about cooking for X number of days!
Anyhow, the picture I took shows a small sampling of the Cantonese meal, plus the tomato-beef chow mein and honey-walnut prawns. (The Cantonese dinner includes soup, chow mein, fried rice, sweet-and-sour pork, and two eggrolls. Oh, and, of course, fortune cookies!) So, on the plate, starting at 12, are the prawns (no walnuts made it onto the plate, but I promise they did come with them). At 3 would be the chow mein. At 6, tomato-beef chow mein. At 9, sweet-and-sour pork. At 11, fried rice. In the center, the eggrolls. Above the plate, the soup with a fortune cookie on top. (I didnt want the soup, so itll make an excellent light dinner tomorrow.) To the right of the plate, the sauce for the sweet-and-sour for the eggrolls.
Bottom line: I HIGHLY recommend the food at China Station.
