"Two stars because it used to be better. If the business model is delivery focused then the delivery needs to be prompt and the food should be warm enough to eat. Crab rangoon is good when it's good and fresh. You know what's not good is soggy dough filled with luke warm cream cheese. It's also not good to dive into limp cold vegetables swimming in sauce. It..." Read more

"Not very good, smells great but quality isn't good. All the vegetables in my dish weren't cooked properly and hard to eat. Chicken tasted pretty bad and not typical Chinese slicing. Not terrible but definitely not impressed. Won't be going here again."

"Little disappointed tonight. Have always had great Chinese delivered. Tonight the sesame chicken was dry. The combo Lo mein noodles were lacking flavor and cool. Hey where was the shrimp? I found the 3 over cooked chicken pieces and 5 strips of dry beef. Pot stickers were okay. I hope you don't sacrifice quality for volume. Ordered tonight instead of Lin...." Read more

"Sigh... I guess I got the wrong dish because there are so many food reviews I was so excited to try it but it was not good. I got the general tso chicken and it wasn't very flavorful and it was pretty crunchy? The fried rice?? Was like white rice, with a splash of soy sauce and one pea in it. I'm sad this place didn't do it for me :( Panda Express is better..." Read more

"Cheap very cheap. You get what you pay for. I like the concept of not having to tip but my god the food is not good. It could have been just my dish but I will not be going back"

"It's okay. I was expecting more from the reviews. Meat didn't taste real or fresh, kind of spongey.. Drunken noodle was alright on cause i got it extra spicy.. and chicken lettuce wraps were poorly done. Sauce was jelly like, too sweet and.. seemed old. I won't be back!"

"I ordered Tso's for the first time. Frankly, I am a little confused by all the 5 star reviews. Everything I ordered was mediocre at best. The hot and sour soup was hot - that's all. No real flavor. The hot and sour I order from my favorite place has a rich, beefy broth with a lot of vegetables and a lot of flavor, not just heat. The Beijing beef was rather c..." Read more

"the food is ok. americanized chinese food, nothing spectacular. the wait times they quote are a joke though. once the order is placed it will be there immediately (which is impossible) or some random time in the future. theyve been open awhile so you would think they would have this worked out but no. dont bother if you are actually hungry. quoted 80 minutes..."

"This is mediocre Chinese food at best. I have no idea why so many people think it's so fantastic. The sweet-and-sour chicken was okay chicken was a little dry and tough, and there were about four little carrot slices and two snap peas in the entire dish. My wife didn't even finish her drunken beef because she said the beef tasted mealy, the noodles were all..." Read more

"We didn't have the order delivered but picked it up instead because some of the reviews said it could take a long time to get the meal. We had a VERY large order too. Food was okay - shrimp walnut was the best of all the food we ordered. That being said, all the boxes were NOT marked, even if it was spicy or not!! Since we had such a variety of food the..."

"Based on the reviews I was expecting some really great food. I only got the chicken lo mein and I wasn't impressed. Unfortunately there wasn't much flavor except for saltiness and the noodles were pretty overcooked. Maybe I just had bad luck but I'm really hesitant to spend the money to try them again. On a more positive note, the delivery speed was great an..." Read more

"I was suprised because the website is cool and the place looks modern - but this is not good chinese food. Its very low quality - especially the chicken entrees (orange chicken, general tso's). I tried this over some of the local 1-off delivery places i usually go to and damn, my family and I were really really let down. Try any other chinese food place if y..." Read more

"Most Americanized Chinese food I think I've ever had. The egg drop soup tasted like powered soup. The chicken fried rice was decent but the chicken did not taste right. Also ordered Kung poa chicken and it was the strangest version I've ever had. It was made in a sweet sauce, not a brown garlicky sauce. There were red and green bell peppers in it and very fe..."

"Tso Chinese delivery sent us a coupon so we tried ordering. The website is pretty slick and works well, except you can't customize your order much (for instance "no mushrooms in the fried rice please"). The food took about an hour, so not super fast or anything. Driver was friendly. We were hoping for a good new chinese option but were really disappointed..." Read more

"I'm giving up on this place. Last night they gave me someone else's food. I contact the driver, he picked it back up, and then went to the other house to make the exchange. When he came back both appetizers were missing and all the shrimp was eaten out of the shrimp fried rice. Since the other people had obviously picked through our food, we had no interest..."

"I ordered carryout from here last night (9/2/19). I placed my order on their website but when I got to the restaurant to pick up my food they said that their entire system was down so I had to show my confirmation email in order to "prove" that I had actually placed an order. Then I had to sit and wait while they made my food. That wouldn't have been a big d..." Read more

"I've ordered here twice. I've had the general tso tofu, veggie delight, SZECHUAN tofu, and the Kung pao tofu- all vegan. All 4 dishes had zero flavor or seasoned taste to them - between the 4 I honestly wouldn't be able to taste the difference between them. They all just tasted like unseasoned tofu and veggies- where the flavor at?? I'm not sure that there..." Read more

"Tso fast? Tso slow is more like it. I have ordered from Tso 3 times with similar results. They give a range of time from 30 min to an hour and 30 minutes. The first time it arrived in 1.5 hours. The second time I had to cancel because it was taking to long as it was still on the "received" icon well after 45 minutes and I was getting frustrated. The third..." Read more

"The food was good. But it literally took TWO HOURS for them to deliver it!!!!!! While we were tracking our delivery, the website said "the food was on the way" for about 45 minutes; we live 10 minutes from the restaurant. It wasn't until we finally decided to call them that they actually got ready to deliver our order. -_-"

"Started off great at its inception because they were trying to build a client base. They then began cutting back on the protein in orders, say for example, the amount of chicken in a kung pao chicken order drastically dropped. In an attempt to allay this situation and still support the restaurant I asked for "extra chicken". I was then told that they do n..." Read more

"Fourth time: Back to two stars. The app portion showing the progress of your food being cooked is so buggy. It means you have no idea in an hour-long window or more when your food might arrive. Potstickers are my favorite thing. Second and third time's ordering: Upgraded from a one star to three star. The appetizers are all good. The main courses I've had..." Read more
