The wonton noodle soup, with the chili oil, is out of this world. By and far my favorite soup in the cities. Great array of textures, savor and spice, and the perfect amount of food. Great anytime of year, tho I especially love it in the summer. The staff are also always warm to greet you, super fast in getting your order out, and just very kind folk.

Ordered the general Tos chicken The sauce is liquid and the chicken is what they had sitting out on the lunch counter they didn’t make it fresh. The egg rolls were cold. $15 lunch will not be back.

The spring/egg roll salad is amazing! Simple and tasty! The staff is amzing!! If you are one that orders a “usual” they will recognize it and offer your favorite dish with a warm hello.

Szechuan had some spice to it, but the fried rice was quite unremarkable. Server was very pleasant….

Ordered today through door dash in support of small business. My 2 favorite Asian restaurant were closed (most are) So decided to give this one a try. Ordered egg fo young, not in pressed. Eggs were like rubber, no taste that was pleasant, the egg rolls were even bad. My lab who will eat mostly any thing took one smell of the egg roll and left the room. Wish others would of stayed open.

Everything is sweet! No authentic flavor. The sesame chicken basically has a crunchy sugar coating on the outside. It said this was supposed to be spict but there is no spice at all. Even the cream cheese puffs have sugar in them.

Love the crispy egg rolls and fish sauce. The sesame chicken is really good, stellar when you get it right from the fryers. All the food I tried so far is great. Their special is a crazy good deal. ~$7 for 1 entree or 2 half entrees, fried rice or loaded noodles, and an awesome egg roll, cream cheese wontons, or egg foo yung + gravy. Pretty sure I’m putting someone’s kid through college!

this place has the BEST Sesame Chicken I’ve ever had! i can’t really speak for the other dishes as Sesame Chicken and Cashew Chicken (also great!) are all I’ve ever really had there, but for their daily combination special of $5.95 ($6.41 after tax), you get so much good food….also, they let you do half and half of each. So, say you want the combination special, but you don’t just want one main dish – if you want to have 2, you can do half and half – 1 half sesame ck and 1 half cashew chicken….then you get 1 scoop of either fried or white rice (your choice) and an appetizer (either 1 egg roll, 1 egg foo young, 2 chicken wings or 2 cream cheese wonton. I love this place and am craving their Sesame Ck just writing about it! the staff is always so friendly also. if you are going to have Chinese fast food in the st. paul skyway, get it at Asian Express!

This is truly a hidden gem, with absolutely wonderful Chines takeout. Fresh, hot, cooked to perfection. I get their Sesame Chicken every week, so good. Haven’t tried their fresh buffet at lunch, too hooked on the Sesame Chicken!
