I concur: Best Chinese in town. Unless you want a Pork St. Paul sandwich, for which you'll have to go to the "legacy" Chinese establishment in town. But 88 China has them beat in that they take plastic, while the other takes cash only. And now they'll deliver as well.
But this is the clean place, with a great selection and food that's always good, HOT, and fresh.Listed in: My Neighborhood

Your average hole in the wall Chinese joint.
They get an extra star for delivery service, accepting debit card, and having their condiments put out so you can grab a handful, but that doesn't make up for their lackluster food.
FOOD:
First off their rice is gross. I have had Uncle Ben's microwave rice that's tasted better than the crap I had. The sweet and sour shrimp was nothing but tasteless over battered shrimp. I stripped away most of the batter so I could actually taste the shrimp.
The crab rangoon I ordered was more cream cheese than anything. That's great that they really stuff it, but I want to taste the crab, in crab rangoon!!! Besides, I like a little more crunch to my rangoon.
PRICE:
They're cheap. We had 2 small drinks, half order of beef lo mein, sweet and sour shrimp, and an order of crab rangoon for $18.
APPEARANCE:
The inside is far from clean and orderly. There's napkins on the floor, the drink station is just stuffed with crap in a book shelf, and I'd hate to see the filth in the kitchen.
SERVICE:
The guys answering the phones and at the front desk are friendly, I'll give them that. Cooks are slow with the food however. I would've already done had my food and eaten at Vin Hoa in the time we waited.
OVERALL:
I'm unimpressed. What's so great about this place? They deliver? So what? I'm not that lazy to get in the car to go and drive for GOOD Chinese food. -
