    Excellent very fresh food! Very unexpected. Do not be fooled by the appearance of this place. It kind of looks like a fortified brick building with a few very tiny rectangle windows. I had the Kung Pow Chicken (authentic). Wow what a difference from what it is like at other places. Most places drown it in brown sauce to make it taste better. This place gives you very good very fresh Kung Pow (spelling?) Chicken that does not need a sauce to flavor it up. Best I have had in I can not remember when. I plan to come back and try other dishes too. My son (25 yrs old) was with me and had the Lo Mein combination and said it was good, but it did not seem to be as good as what I had. Maybe he should have asked for Authentic? When I ordered the Kung Pow Chicken they asked me if I wanted the Authentic Kung Pow Chicken and I said yes. I am not sure what it would have been if I said no. I understand from my daughter that her friend's Mom often orders take out from this place and is very pleased with the food.

    Decent food for the price. Owners are super friendly and aim to please! I would rather eat at a place like this than the one up the road whose staff is rude and inconsiderate!

    Placed an order on line and after a two hour wait called to ask what was going on and was told fax machine was broken and my order had not even been started and it would be another 35 minutes. Go somewhere else.

    After reading good reviews I decided to try it. The outside sure was disguising, because once inside it looks quite nice. I was seated and looked over the menu and ordered the Hunan shrimp. When it came out, it looked and smelled great. There were plenty vegetables, shrimp, and fried rice with it. The shrimp were jumbo (maybe even larger), which was surprising to me. I'm used to it being a little above popcorn size. The vegetables were nice and crunchy still, and the rice was not overly doused with soy sauce. Even the eggroll that came with it tasted very fresh and homemade, and the sauce that came with it (duck sauce maybe?) was great. I definitely recommend this place, and I will be coming back for more.

    Hot Pot is a new restaurant in an old location. The previous chinese restaurant that was here was awful (probably the worst I have ever had - we threw the food out), but Hot Pot is really very good. And they deliver, which is a really big plus.

    "This rating is on the service only. Been 70 minutes sitting here waiting for carry out. Unacceptable. They have a total of 3 people working. Total on Valentines Day. Very disappointed.

    What a surprise!!!! I have lived near this place for ten years and never ventured in because it does not look like much from the outside. Wow, talk about not judging a book by its cover!! There are two other local Chinese food restaurants within 3 mile of this one, and they don't even come close!! I have eaten so many times at the other two because that was what I thought my choices had to entail. Well the other two will NEVER be frequented by me again as long as this place is around. My wife and I couldn't help but be stunned by the quality and taste of the food. We both agreed we had never had better or fresher tasting Chinese than Hot Pot. Really folks I can't say enough about how this restaurant is so good! They offer carry-out and I think delivery but really do yourself a favor and eat inside. It is nicely decorated and very clean inside. They obviously take great pride in their business and is really shines. The Wonton soup noodles were still firm and tasty not soggy and mushy like ever other place. The egg rolls are made to order in house by hand and served hot and fresh. The egg rolls have a unique and delicious flavor, nothing like the pre-made, pre-packaged egg rolls from most Chinese restaurants. My wife raved about how the chicken in her Lo Main was the most tender chicken she had ever eaten. My shrimp egg foo yung was served with a golden sauce instead of the brown gravy I have always had with egg foo yung. The sauce is delicious!! The egg foo yung had a flavor that was somehow "light" tasting and too good to be true. The fried rice.........perfection. Last but not least was the dessert. The waitress recommended the fried bananas and we agreed to sample them. OH MY GOD!!! I would never have thought frying a banana could be such a wonderful dessert. I was heavenly. The only thing was the wife felt it could benefit from a light sprinkle of powdered sugar, but while I agree that would kick up the sweetness a notch I was fine with the sweet but real sweet flavor. Please give this place a try and then post the results on here. I want this place to stay around a long time. Just wish I had tried it 10 years ago when we moved in down the street. Ignore the plain brick outside-you will not regret it!!!

    In my continuing search for decent Asian food in Charles County, I took my family to the Hot Pot Chinese Restaurant in Charlotte Hall. At 1PM Saturday, we were the only customers. Service was fine, but 5 out of 6 dishes were minimally edible. The combination fried rice was good. The other 5 dishes had much in common. All were on the menu as spicy -NONE were. The Spicy Szechuan dumplings had thick, chewy wrappers, unknown filling the size of a grain of corn, and a slightly sweet, bland brown sauce common to the other dishes. An order of Thai Basil Beef had the brown sauce with Hoi Sin sauce added, and had no relation to Thai cuisine. This dish and a Chinese Triple Delight had vegetables which were all over cooked. An order of "Spicy" tofu offered the brown sauce again. The chicken and beef in two dishes had been tenderized with baking powder. Definitely not worth a return visit. I'll keep searching.

    I am pleasantly surprised! Don't judge this book by it's cover, folks. I have a go-to Chinese place in northern Maryland, and I'm always disappointed when I go new places. This place, while not quite the same (I'm spoiled, what can I say), is a fantastic find in Southern MD. When I try new places, I want to try a variety of dishes, so I make sure that I'm not writing an eventual review on one dish that maybe happened to not be my favorite. This time, pretty much everything was a win! The hot and sour soup, which I usually am not a huge fan of anyways, was everything hot and sour soup should be. Well done! Crab Rangoon (called something else here) were good - fried just right, and well-filled, but they were just a little bit on the sweet side for me, and had just a little bit too much cream cheese in them - otherwise, very good! Szechuan string beans - not my favorite, and they didn't stay crisp. I was expecting beans without a real sauce that had szechuan seasonings on them instead. They were alright, but my expectations were set higher. Moo Shu Pork - very good! A little heavier on the cabbage than most I've seen, but very flavorful. Ask for some extra Hoisen sauce, though, if you get carryout! Chicken in Ginger sauce - fantastic. My favorite dish of all the things we ordered. Definitely a bit on the spicy side, but not overwhelmingly so. I highly recommend this! The service was great - everyone was friendly and helpful. And seriously - the inside is really nice - the outside looks mediocre at best, but they did a great job decorating, and have 3 separate dining spaces, depending on what you're looking for. The first area is where people generally wait for takeout, the middle area is for couples and smaller dining parties, and the back area is set for larger parties with tables to accommodate 6-10. Overall, a great find, and I look forward to dining in next time!

    Really good food. I would have never tried this place from the looks of it from the outside by I'm glad a co-worker recommended it. It's very clean and doesn't seem like it gets too crowded. The staff was very courteous and helpful. Highly recommended.

    Hmmmm. i am having a hard time figuring out why this place has such great reviews. Have these people just not had good Chinese food? Let me start by saying it wasn't horrible or anything but far from good.... let me explain, I got general tso chicken and the sauce they use tastes just like ketchup mixed with something else, it is also very pasty. I found two small bones in my chicken, (one resembling a chicken claw) I kid you not. I am sure it was just bone fragment but still it looked like a chicken claw. I also like my general tso to be a little crunchy on the outside, this very very soft and mushy. My girlfriend got Shrimp lo mien. This was also very dry and had no real flavor. The shrimp were pretty good and so were the spring rolls but that is about it. I tried it based on all the good reviews but i can safely say i will not be going back again.

    Came here with a friend because the yelp reviews were good. He ordered the sweet and sour chicken and I ordered the shrimp egg foo young. Both were excellent, but the egg for young sauce was amazing. My buddy kept dipping his chicken in it (its in a side bowl). Annie took great care of us and the inside is very clean and comfortable. Overall, it was a great experience. Will go again.

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
