China Express

I consider myself a self-proclaimed Chinese takeout connoisseur and this place shines among the rest. I also like Tsim Yung in Alexandria and Yums in DC off 14th and P. I still recommend this place over those two places. They actually can alter the level of heat in the general Tso if you ask nicely. Other places don’t care to care — this place does. The Lo Mein is great too. The egg rolls also stand out. Their lemon chicken dish is also really good.

Hole in the wall place with no seating in the middle of a bunch of car garages and warehouses. However, it serves a wonderful lunch special menu with down to earth prices on made-to-order Americanized Chinese food in generous portions. This is where you find the best lunch deals around Tysons Corner. No wonder they served three four hundreds of their lunch specials on any weekday before the pandemic. Outside of the lunch special, my personal favorite is the Foo Yong Egg. There are 3 large ones in each order. You know it’s deep fried in their huge fryer before the gravy was added because you can totally taste the “wok taste” (鍋氣) as Chinese would call it. Yum!
