I really LOVE Kings Asian Chef’s Lo mein but it’s a bit pricey. Hong King inn is good but the prices have gone up and the portions have gotten smaller. Just curious about any recommendations :)

We went to New China on the Northside. The cashew chicken was really good. Much better than the first time I tried it. I went on reddit recommendation. Thanks. Good job!

And you like Canton Inn? More power to you, friend, but I personally cannot understand that decision.

What is wrong with Canton Inn?
*Down voted for just asking?
Oh you don't like their rich cashew chicken sauce? Their homemade egg rolls stuffed to the brim aren't satisfying? Their lo mein sauce is way better than Hong Kong Inn. You people have garbage taste.

Agreed. I LOVE Canton Inn but their lo mein is straight up trash. Always scorched and greasy

Amazin Asian has the best lo mein I've ever had.

I like Chinese chef personally. The one on sunshine is better than the one on Campbell imo

Have to say the best I had is Leong's. They use better quality cuts of meat. The full order is big enough to be two meals for me. Although you may pay a little more than the fast food style of orential food I find it is well worth it if you have a taste for lo mein. The beef lol mein is the best out of all of them but they have a veggie option as well as chicken and shrimp.

If you are just wanting meat and noodles (little to no veggies) the New Oriental on Chestnut is my absolute favorite. I wish it had more veggies but the flavor makes it worth getting anyway. The dinner portion is a whole to-go box filled, so I get like 3 meals each time.

Asian Hut and 5 Spice are my favs.

I'm always impressed with how much beef lo mein I can eat from Happy China. So damn good.

New House is THE way to go for any Chinese! Big portions for reasonable prices! And it’s always absolutely fire!

The roast pork lo mein at Asian Hut is ok. New Oriental’s is gross. Honestly, I’m still looking.
ProgressMom68 t1_j2q1234 wrote
I liked the noodles but the pork seemed like it was breaded and that’s all wrong.
WandererDynamic t1_j2q33m3 wrote
I must admit I haven’t had the pork yet, just shrimp, beef, and chicken.

I just tried new house chinese, on West Chestnut, last month. I got a shrimp lo mein and they gave me like 14 shrimp in it which I felt was very generous and I ate it for days
