Food was ok. I ordered the lunch special that came with chicken wings and fried rice and a egg roll all for under $7 which isn't bad. I was in the area and decided to drop in and had a taste for Chinese food. It was okay I would try it again.

You'd think this place has a lot of the typical dishes you'd expect from a Chinese place but what really makes this place stand out is HOW they make their food. Many Chinese restaurants would usually get a bunch of prepackaged, pre-made foods from other states or sometimes even from different countries. Not this place. One time I came in to pick up some Spare Ribs and I saw them in the back marinading some of their meats and dipping other meats into batter. And I'm talking about real, raw meat being marinaded in their mystery sauce. I'm not saying that their battered meat dishes are exceptional, I'm just making it clear that they don't order pre-made, frozen dishes. Okay maybe they do but I'm positive they at least make their own meat dishes. If you buy General Tso Chicken, you can taste a slight difference in the dish compared to the typical Chinese carry out. As in, you'll taste and feel the fat in your mouth as you consume each piece. Now, it's all about preference and personally, I'm loving it. They have an extensive menu plus more options if you go inside. As you order and wait, you can actually see them cooking your food and putting in the spices, seasonings and other things as they move the wok like clockwork, slowly cooking your food as if they were cooking it themselves. Some of the dishes here DO taste like the usual, however, others taste pretty damn good. Like what you may ask? Pad Thai dishes are pretty good, not as much as the kind you get at a Thai restaurant but it's worth it. Some of their appetizers are on point too like their Chicken Wings and Spare Ribs. Mind you, the spare ribs are fatty. Their Mongolian beef, General Tso Chicken, Crispy beef and Moo Shu beef are all pretty good. Their Fried Rice and Lo Mein dishes are pretty greasy but that's what I like. I personally don't go here often so I don't know how good their dishes are now. However, I'm sure you'll be able to find something good here.

First time trying Hunan Express. I ordered hot and sour soup, wonton soup, cream cheese wontons, and honey sesame chicken. This is the only casual Chinese carry out I've ever to that did not have dinner combination platters. Both soups were almost inedible. The wonton broth was dark brown instead of the traditional yellow color and was very salty. The hot and sour was really just hot and no flavor. The cream cheese wontons were too much bread and overall dull. Not enough cherry sauce in the world to save em. The honey sesame chicken had mediocre flavor and the chicken was tough and stringy. The only positive of the night was that it was cheap and fast. I am hoping that I either ordered the wrong things or it was just an off night. I'll give Hunan Express one more shot before they get shunned. I'm hopeful they will rebound so I will not be missing China House in Canton, MD.

This is an excellent Chinese takeout restaurant. The portions and prices are very generous. Their wontons and dumplings are above average. Always a decent meal with plenty of leftovers.

It's your basic cheap carry out Chinese joint. Nothing to go out of your way to try in my opinion. We've gotten take out here a bunch of times because it's convenient. The shrimp fried rice is pretty good. It's huge and they don't skimp on the shrimp, but it's pretty greasy. It's not bad food, but I've since discovered places like Chopstixx and East Asian Bistro that I prefer over Hunan.

If you are looking for fast order and cheap food, you should try this place. That's exactly what I did. A couple of my friends wanted to enjoy the nice weather for lunch, so they decided to have a picnic at Fort McHenry. Unfortunately, we were responsible for our own meal, so I just drove into a random plaza which I thought would have a fast food joint, but found this Chinese take-out place instead. You will spend $5-$7 for a meal that will guarantee your hunger will be gone by the time you finish it. If you spend more, you are doing something wrong. The food was as good as you make out of it. I thought it was quite satisfactory for the price I paid for, so I was happy. Anyway, in summary, I will come this place if I have to make another quick decision for food again.

We have enjoyed Hunan Express for years. They are very fast and the food is good. We particularly enjoy the fried dumplings, sesame chicken and they make a chicken with broccoli in a black bean sauce. Good place for Chinese carry out.

We have also enjoyed Hunan Express for years. It's our first choice for carry out. The food is fresh and tasty. We even choose carry out from Hunan Express over the higher priced sit down Chinese restaurant across town because the food is better here. The vegetables and meats are fresh and tasty. The spicy foods are delicious and the spicy does not over-power the taste of the food. You can order the level of spice that you like, mild or hot. And, they offer brown rice for the healthy conscious. Nottm

Hunan Express is my go-to for Chinese carryout. It is conveniently located by the Giant. I probably should begin by saying that I am a picky Chinese food eater. In fact, I usually don't crave Chinese food, but their chicken lo mein may be the best I've had. I even order the Pad Thai here (gasp!) and it's not bad. The staff here is friendly, food is cheap (they usually have coupons in the coupon mailers, and service is quick. I also really like the tea they give you with your carryout.

Kinda disappointing, but probably about what a person would expect from a hole-in-the-wall style Chinese restaurant. Vegetable lo mein was the best thing we ordered. Chicken with cashews was strangely sugary. Egg foo yung greasy and flavorless. Spare ribs tasted like freezer burn. Sigh. . . .I'm always hoping for an undiscovered gem, but this isn't it.

I ordered the lunch special from here. I was very surprised by the amount of food that came in the box. The food was good but it was not anything special. The service was very quick which was perfect for lunch. Overall it was good. Carry out only no place to sit and eat.

We get takeout from here at least once every 2 weeks. They have big woks in the back where they cook the food, it's all made fresh and fast. We have never had a bad experience with the food or the service. It's usually ready within 15 minutes. We eaten food there for years and had a variety of food, cho cho beef, egg rolls, wonton soup, chicken chow mein, rainbow chicken (spicy), lemon chicken, chicken cashew...etc, etc...they have a huge menu. It's very good standard Chinese food. Thankful for tasty, consistent and fast Chinese food that's local!
