This place is garbage when it comes to descriptions. Their “little spicey” is extremely spicey, I have diabetic gastroparesis so too spicey of stuff makes me vomit uncontrollably and this did me in.Get your spice levels done right according to statistics, not your own tolerance.
First time trying this restaurant, the food was great! We had orange chicken and the treasure plate and they were soo good. I am excited to try the rest of the menu
We have been getting take-out from China Lake for 32 years, ever since we moved to Rowlett. We have never missed a Christmas Eve. China Lake has changed hands several times over the years, but we still love it. The food is excellent, the way I remember Chinese food growing up in the sixties. They have nice portions, and they always get the order right. I hope China Lake never stops serving their food.
Good food and service.
This is the first and only complaint I've had in 13 years as a frequent customer. We ordered Jalapeno Jumbo Shrimp and asked them to add water chestnuts, mushrooms and carrots. When my order arrived there were only 2 small jalapeno slices, no water chestnuts, the did add bell pepper and bamboo shoots, which I did not want. There was NO spice or heat, for a dish touted with jalapenos! With hesitation, I called them to complain. The person who took the call had ZERO concern and
I normally don’t leave reviews but had to in this case for the sake of others. I ordered beef and noodles and they tasted horrible! The ‘beef’ tasted nothing like beef or any kind of meat I’ve had before. It made me almost throw up. I began doubting that it could be dog/cat meat. I’ve never tasted anything like it before! I was so disgusted by the food that I ended up stopping by the nearest 711 to trash it.
Everything was great. I was a little disappointed in the egg rolls, but everything else was spot on.
It's a hit or miss. Sometimes its great other times you get stale fried noodles.
Ordered take out tonight. Everything was freshly prepared quickly. The portions are generous. Highly recommend.
First time trying this place so I played it safe and ordered sweet n sour chicken, a chicken egg roll, and their veg egg rolls. Everything was bad! Fried rice was bland and had no veggies, chicken is questionable and I think undercooked cause not one piece was crispy. Also came with no carrots or pineapple like everywhere else but instead the crunchy things that usually come with soup. Egg rolls were gross and also undercooked. Don’t like making reviews but I honestly could not eat any of it.
