The food here is very good, it was ready on time, and everything I ordered was in the bag. Very reasonably priced and great quality. It's takeout only but it was very clean inside. The owner is very nice and personable. She'll remember you next time.

The nicest and most personable people, and the most delicious food. Very generous amounts. They truly appreciate your business and address all of their regular customers by name. My family has gone here for years and will for many years to come. The chicken with garlic sauce is the best you'll ever taste, but all of their offerings are truly exceptional. You will be very satisfied

Take-out only, but surprisingly good! I would venture to say that it's the best Chinese food I've had, hands down, since I came to the US. The chicken was tender, fragrant and juicy, just like real chicken should be, and the dish was the perfect amount of tasty--not too salty or spicy and not too bland. Vegetables were also tender, but not mushy, fresh and bright but not hard and warmed through like some places.The egg roll and fried rice could have been a little less chewy, and some of the fortune cookies a little fresher. Overall, though, I am beyond happy!

Had food last Saturday it was delicious btw if you say your getting food poisoning after one bite that’s not how food poisoning works. It takes 30 minutes to an hour to have any results so the reviews that are saying that you are dumb do some research before you make a faults review

The owners/cooks are very nice. After many years going here I've never had any problems. Shout out to the place, best Chinese food around

Food is great but you can't sit down inside to eat the dining area is shut down to the public and so isn't their restroom. You can only do take out.

Food was absolutely delicious and all very fresh. Chicken/ beef with broccoli, shrimp and scallop, garlic shrimp, garlic chicken, crag ragoon, egg rolls and steamed dumpling. Some of the best Chinese around. Don't let the Atmosphere denture you.

My husband and I were staying in St. Johnsville and needed dinner at 8 PM on a Monday. There was not many options at that time. We saw that Red Lantern House was open so we went there. I am so happy we did! The food was delicious and the portions were huge! We enjoyed the wonton soup, shrimp with broccoli, and house special mei fun. Highly recommend!

The food is really really good, the people are super nice. They're always extremely friendly. The only real complaint I have is that sometimes it's really difficult to know when they're open. A lot of the time when I call no one answers. Hours would be greatly appreciated!

I think we have been lucky twice to order food here since we moved here 2 years ago . Either they don’t answer the phone or it rings busy for an hour Why don’t they just have online ordering like other restaurants in the area. I end up ordering from the pizza place because if I Wait for someone to answer I would starve. The few times I magically got the food it wasn’t the best I have ever had , but it’s still edible .

For the area it's decent chinese food. Most dishes taste the same so you need to say what you want as far as spice level. It's a large restaurant but you can only do take out so don't plan on staying. The family that runs it are very nice.

Nobody ever answers the phone when it says their open?! Food is ok...not great. Prices are basically the same as most hole in the wall chinese food places in the area. Nothing special. It does the trick in a pinch when you're wanting chinese but, there is much better places around to get it.

I use to enjoy this place until recently. They don’t answer the phone during the time their suppose to be open & have terrible customer service. The food is okay but when it comes to rude businesses... I don’t tolerate that!

Consistently never answers the phone to place an order for pick up still no dine in and no buffet. They really need to get their phones fixed or learn how to answer them.

S
Sara Smith

They never answer their phone. When they do answer their phone, and we get our food, the food is really bad. Honestly the worst tasting Chinese food I've ever had. The meat tastes weird and bitter, the food is greasy and flavorless. Not worth it.

This place is NEVER open or they just simply do not answer the phone. It is so frustrating week after week still trying to support this local business and they still blow customers off by the dozen.

THIS FOOD SENT MY WHOLE FAMILY TO THE ER WITH FOOD POISONING. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY. My husband brought this food home and it was atrocious. Everything tasted like peanut oil and the dumplings were very undercooked. I’m disappointed they charged us 40 for the worst food we’ve eaten in a while. Update: because my entire family threw up almost immediately after taking the first few bites, we called for a refund. They said “no one has complained and it’s okay if you don’t like it”. This place is garbage, the people who run it are horrible. Run from this place. My poor 8 and 5 year old are vomiting like crazy. They should be ashamed of themselves. I emailed the department of health this evening and I will be following up until they are inspected.
