Red House

After reading all of the hopeful reviews, my bf and I decided to try Red House. I was hoping it would be good because I live down the stretch and I love Chinese food (and pizza, etc.) I ordered the red crab rangoon, 2pc chicken dinner which includes a wing, breast, roll, «cole slaw», and whipped potatoes with gravy, and my bf had the sesame chicken with steamed rice. I was really hopeful for this place, but it was VERY dissapointing. I hate to say it, but it was some of the worst Chinese food and fried chicken I’ve ever had! The best part was the chicken wing. The next most passable item was the rangoon, which were just tiny remnants of imitation crab and cream cheese wrapped in chewy wonton wrappers and deep fried. The red sauce was too ketchupy, which furthered my sadness. The sides on the chicken dinner are better left off. the roll is store bought and smushed inside with some cole slaw, which looks awful, but doesn’t taste as bad as it looks leading me to believe that it might actually be homemade. The potatoes are okay, but they’re smothered in a gravy which tastes strange. it tastes like french onion soup mix or something and not a brown gravy. Like I said the wing was good but my chicken breast was horrid! The skin was ass hanging off in one piece (which was like a yummy chiccharone, but still) the breast must have been cut wrong because there was absolutely no meat, just a few strips of meat that was too fried to even eat. THE WORST PART: my bf’s «sesame chicken» was disgusting to say the least. Out of all the sketchy gas station, strip mall, and food court Chinese food I’ve had in my life this was definitely the worst. The sauce tasted exatcly ike BBQ and nothing like sesame. The bits of chicken were minescule and poor quality dark meat, and worse yet they were encompassed in massive amounts of spongy breading. It was soggy and unpalatable. At around $ 18 for this mess we received, this place is no bargain either, also they didn’t include any fortune cookies, what gives?

Yummy yummy yummy!!! I am so happy that you can place your order not just over the phone now, but online!!! Being as paranoid as I am about placing an online order through a site I wasn’t sure would even submit the order to them properly, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a call from the restaurant about 3 minutes after placing the order to confirm that they received it and that I meant it to go to their location.
We’ve been here a couple of times for take out, but always just went there and placed our order at the corner.
We order a fairly odd mix of stuff to satisfy my craving for their delicious orange chicken, plain fried rice w egg and NO bean sprouts, and… french fries… heehee.
I am a big big BIG fan of orange chicken and like it to be prepared in a very particular way and they do it perfectly! Nice and crispy white meat! Sweet, spicy, tart n tangy not too thick or runny sauce!
I am making myself hungry… time to go make something to eat! Or maybe I’ll place an online order… hmmmm…

Looks like not much but food is very good and at a fair price. Their dumplings were tender and very flavorful. Got general toas chicken nice sauce. Spoke to others waiting for food and was told that good is great.

Food was passable. Bathroom was out of order. Eggrolls had shrimp in them for some reason. Since one of us had a shellfish allergy… this could have ended very badly.

LOOKS HORRIBLE ON THE OUTSIDE, but don’t let the cover full ya. Had a taste for some fried chicken wings and went here. Got two order and they gave me 10 hot, delightful full wings. YUMMY! The fried fish I had was good also. Large order of fried rice came with the wings. it was good.
This place serves American and Chinese food so you nave a wide selection. Ill be back.

This might be the worst looking place to eat in the world, but the food is surprisingly good. Great lunch specials, and overall some really good food. You just have to get past the exterior of the place. So let’s do the cons first:
1) Bad part of Town
2) Horrible place to eat-​in
3) Icky
Now let’s move on to the good
1) You can get Chinese Food, seafood, subs, fried chicken, pizza, etc… all at this one spot
2) Chinese food is really good
3) Fried Chicken is pretty good
4) Subs are pretty good
5) Cheap lunch specials
Have not tried seafood or pizza there.
So really… call in some orders and give it a try for lunch sometime. I don’t think you’ll regret it.
