The food is okay, the price is cheap, and the service is good.China Night Cafe is not by anyone's standard fine dining but for the price of the food and how much you get it is hard to complain. They have a few veggie options and a couple that make it to the lunch special list, which are a steal. Some are better then others with my go-to being the Veggie Chop Suey. They give you a mound of food, an egg roll (veggie), and a drink for less then McD's. If it was say 2-3 dollars more for a meal then it would drop down a star or two but at that price it is the best in the area. I am sure that the food is loaded with oil and MSG but when you are hungry fast and cheap sometimes wins.The service is excellent, bringing the food out so fast is is scary. Everyone that works at CNC means business, they are very friendly and but are ready to take your order as you walk in the door. The place is self is just okay playing the Maury Show (or whatever clone of it happens to be on) and is decorated is a very random style, but it is a place to sit and scarf your food down.One year ago I would rate this place a 2 Star since the food was almost too oily to eat but they have grown on me (or maybe they cut down on the oil) and I have bumped them up to a 3 Star. Come hungry and with a couple of bucks and leave full and sleepy.

China Lite offers a quick delivery service and okay food. Their thick sauces like seamed and orange chicken are a little too thick, maybe they use too much corn starch. Otherwise everything else is decent. The prices are really affordable. ...?

We ordered a large sweet and sour chicken, a large shrimp fried rice, and the bo bo appetizer platter and that was delivered in an amazing 25 min. Everything was great too. I like my crab rangoon and they're great here. ...?

This is a tiny little Chinese restaurant in the heart of the UIC/Taylor Street area. I have eaten there several times over the last few years, and it is consistently good. My favorite is the beef and snow peas. ...?

Not much to say really other than this place is exactly what it advertises itself to be: a corner burger place. The food is served hot, basket style, and they have fountain drinks (RC cola, no Coke or Pepsi.) Prices are very reasonable for this area. Service isn't that personable, but it is fast and efficient.?

Of late, the quality of food has gone down, dramatically! We ordered szechaun chicken, fried rice and noodles and had to throw away the chicken and fried rice in its entirety. The free 'egg roll' was raw to the core. We patronized this place for almost two years and feel bad about it. Maybe the economy made them fire their cook!?
AVG:(5.0)
