Big Hunan

I got general choa chicken and it was one of the worst decisions of my life. I never felt so sick and I didn’t just throw up once I was up the entire night puking this food up then when I thought I was done puking I ended up constantly shitting UNTILL the next morning. DO NOT EAT HERE.

good place, it’s open up late. Only place I order Chinese food! The owners are hard workers, every time I stop in they’re always friendly and always welcoming. For the price the food is great, I’ve been through a few towns and the quality of fast food isn’t up to par with The Big Hunan.

Not bad take out. I would order again when I am in the area.

Ok where should I start? From the beginning. Like many other places in Cortland, they left me a flyer in my mailbox. Normally I have salads and subs but on this night I wanted some tasty Chinese food. I remembered I had a local places flyer. After checking out there flyer/​menu decided to give them try. It’s plus that they deliver for free locally. So I called in my order, chicken fried rice and beef Lo mein. I was very optimistic about my order, it arrived quickly. At first glance, the food it looks like they something out of the dollar general frozen aisle. I must say the beef Lo mein was somewhat decent. But the chicken fried rice, well that was very bland. The best part of my dinner was the flat soda I had in my fridge. I don’t even like soda… I will not be ordering from this place again needles to say. I’ve had better frozen Chinese from PF changs. I can only suggest you do as I will, and that is to buy frozen PF Chang make it yourself.

My wife and I get takeout here probably 8 to 10 times a year and are always happy with it. It’s not the very best Chinese we’ve ever had but for Cortland takeout it’s the best there is and the prices are quite reasonable, and with a HUGE variety of dishes available.
The in-​house ambiance is awful … pure plastic and bare but I almost never see anyone eating at any of the few table they have. It’s basically just a take-​out place.
We eat a wide variety of their stuff and, again, we are always happy with it. Their hot and sour soup is particularly good and the breading on their sweet and sour pork is decent, not soggy like I’ve had in a few Chinese places.

NASTY AND DIRTY, The building is an old bank and in ill repair. The floor mats were dirty and baseboards wrecked. Then the smell of cigarette smoke was ever increasing and I wondered why since smoking inside s business is illegal. Then I saw one of the cooks smoking behind a food preparation counter. WE LEFT AND WILL NEVER RETURN !

The food is good americanized Chinese food. The egg rolls are delicious. I cant say i’ve ever had a bad meal from there. Even when I was in a diet they would give me steamed chicken and broccoli with the sauce on the side.
I used to work next door to this place so I ate there often. I would see them cleaning the kitchen with bleach and steel wool late at night. In the morning I would see them cutting up fresh ingredients for the day including chicken, beef, pork, broccoli and other fresh veggies. What i saw made me feel even better about eating their food.
The lady that runs the place is nice. I’ve always known her as Christine but I don’t know if that’s right. Her husbands name is Chan and he really doesn’t speak much English but tries to help Christine at the counter which can be comical.
Lastly, this place is mainly set up for carry out food. The do have tables and chairs set up but the atmosphere isn’t too inviting. It is sort of dark in there and usually cold from people going in and out.
If you’re looking for some decent take out or delivery then I recommend this place. If you are looking for a sit down restaurant then I recommend you go elsewhere.
