Chinese Lantern

First visit after reading a lot of positive reviews. I was craving beef with broccoli. Ordered lunch portion and since I don't eat a lot, plenty leftover to take home. The broccoli was cooked perfectly. I would have liked a bit more "gravy." My friend ordered shrimp chow mein, altho I believe she really wanted shrimp lo mein. She loved it even tho the chow mein was served with dry noodles instead of wet. The parking lot is hard for me as I am mobility challenged, and use a cane due to poor balance. I'm sure paving would be a big expense, but it would make the restaurant more accessible. The only other negative I will cite is the carpet in the restaurant. It is far beyond it's lifespan and needs to be replaced. Again, another big expense, and I know these are tough times. We were the first customers of the day, and only one other person came in for a carry-out order during the time we were there. I think advertisement may be needed. Perhaps some coupons or specials posted outside? The woman who greeted and seated us was smiling and very pleasant. The young man, whom I believe was the son of the woman, was not nearly as outgoing or pleasant. I got the feeling he would rather be doing anything else. Our food was good and plentiful, and the pricing was fair by the current standards.

They don’t delivery! I’d order much more if they did. Food is great, my favorite shrimp fried rice with extra shrimp. The shrimp are good, not over cooked like a lot of Chinese places.😬 Dinner price more expensive than take out menu. Lilltle boy who seats u is so cute and the 3 woman i met there were just so lovely and helpful. Well he’s not little anymore, my family and I have enjoyed seeing them grow up, and the value of working together and helping the family is good for our kids to see, they can be a lil selfish. So i will still be calling this the best Chinese food in HAMILTON. Thank you, bout to order now, I talked up the food and now I’m hungry! Lol
