    Not bad Chinese. Very American in taste yet it has a hint of Chinese in it. This place is your typical American Chinese take out spot. The staff were very nice. I ate at Foo Chow. It was very clean from what I remember. What I enjoyed most was hearing the chefs speaking Chinese. It reminded me of my time studying, teaching and living in China. Not sure if that is a reason to come here all in all I found the experience to be quite fine.

    If you want change from your usual Chinese take our try this place. Their dishes are diverse and are a change from what you get from a usual Chinese take out.

    Went to get egg roll and soup. The lady at the front (taking money) starts to cook. I thought nothing of it. Just started watching. I was wondering what was she dipping into the pot of boiling water. They always have boiling water there. I've seen them use it to clean the other pots. Well she Dipped my noodle in there !! Then proceeds to use her hand to put the green onions in !!! Are you serious right now !!
    I said I'll just take the egg roll. I'm saying out loud "you just used your hands. She didn't even look at me. She knew what she did. And her hands were wet and nasty. I probably shouldn't have taken the egg roll. But I watched her cook that. Disgusting !!!

    The garlic sauce was terrible, the broccoli very soggy.  Not enough meat in the dumplings.  Will not return or recommend

    Usually I write a detailed review, but this place isn't worth my time. Mediocre food. Cash only. Rude owners. Won't go back.

    To the person who said this place is from the movie "Rush Hour" you are incorrect. That restaurant is in LA's Chinatown in California.

    The place has been around for 40 years, does not deliver and only takes cash - that's got to tell you something!  Not too many places can even last 5 years. Food is great. It's always flavorful and served piping hot.  I've never had a bad dish whether it's a steamed one from the diet menu or any of their traditional dishes.  Beef Lo Mein with Pork Fried Rice is my weakness. Wonton and Egg Drop soup are both really good too. The place may not look so inviting and the owners aren't very social but it's clean and the ingredients always taste really fresh, even the shrimp. I highly recommended Foo Chow.
