    "the orient" on ne broadway and ...11th(?) it's across from safeway.

    it is the real deal...and quality.

    many "chinese" restaurants are actually vietnamese and it is not the same.


    sooooo good
    mmmmmm

      There's a place on Sandy across from the bike store next to the mission furniture place around 50th or so that has amazing Chinese food. I can never remember the name, but it's GOOD!

      yikes? The Orient? Ya - they have not your standard "egg-foo yuck"...but they are one of the most greasy - unhealthy -so called "chinese" food places in Portland - Amercian Chinese - nope- they aren't that - but I wouldn't call their food "quality" either.......

    Legin on 82nd and Division. A bit of a drive but great Chinese for sure! They have Kung Pao tofu! I like their food, it is like $12 a person after all is said and eaten :)

      Maybe I'm a close-in SE sellout, but I think Fujin on Hawthorne and 35th is really really yummy. Their chicken 'Lo' Mein is delicious, as well as any of their specials. And the General Tsao chicken is amazing, tho packs quite a kick.

        I've heard so many people tell me they like Fujin on 35th & Hawthorne, but I can't get past the pre-chopped garlic in citric acid, that they use. I love garlic, but those processed, bottled, little triangle pieces of it, I think are just nasty. But if that doesn't bother you, then I think they do a good job of cooking the food there.
        P.S. I hate all the places that don't use fresh garlic though!

          I think that Legin and Xien Hong are the best in town fo sho..I went to that seafood restaurant on Division (I think it was called Kings)..I got the Dim Sum..found out I am not a fan of Dim Sum..oh well..went another time but was too skint to afford any of the really killer looking seafood..had Orange Chicken instead..wha wha wahhhhhhhhhhhh..it was so so ..I am interested to try more..oh yea Fujin is killer..when I take my friend there I always will start singing Def Leppards "Foolin" but instead my version goes "Fuh Fuh Fuh Fujin!!!!"

            It's a bit off the beaten path but we LOVE Hunan Pearl off of Kruse Way in Lake Oswego. Their food is PERFECT and DELICIOUS every time.
