In my heart, Iron Chef is the only Chinese take out restaurant. There's nowhere else I'd go!
The food is fast, without any loss of quality. My whole family loves it! We can pick up an order within 10 minutes of ordering, and still have it taste hot and fresh. It's consistently great. Staff is friendly, and I've never had any issues with my order!
I personally go for the sweet and sour chicken! Great sauce, and nice crispy chicken that isn't even remotely dry. My mom is a huge fan of their potstickers and pork fried rice. Their chicken mei fun is also great! Those are what stick out most to me, but there's never been a thing here that I haven't enjoyed.
One of the best parts of coming home to lexington is getting to get my Iron Chef Chinese food. -

Cashew chicken: strangest spongey texture chicken with no chicken taste. Looked great though; celery seemed to be only other ingredient beside cashews.
Mongolian beef: beef tasted spoiled. Smelled *off* immediately on opening container. It was cooked a deep dark color.
Lo mein and rice sides were fine as was Crab Rangoon.
First visit based on th many good Yelp reviews about th food. Food quality of the proteins was nothing like th reviews. Pickup order was prepared in time and th kitchen area at 8:15pm was dark, some food was out. I did not notice latest health inspection rating.
Very disappointed, tossed everything after a few bites.

This restaurant is basically a hole in the wall which makes it great or as my son would say "this place is magical." I got fried dumplings steamed rice and cashew chicken with extra cashews and I was not disappointed I have been there many times and ordered a different dish each time and every time it's better than the last time, also they deliver which it also makes it very convenient for me and my son, if your ever near Todd's Center I highly suggest you try this Chinese restaurant if you haven't it may not look like much but the place is awesome I would give it 5 stars if they had more seating but hey 4 stars and this awesome review is good enough.

On the way home stopped here for the first time to try some Chinese takeout to go. It's a small little store front with a couple of tables upfront if you want to sit and eat. But obviously they make most of their business with takeout and delivery. The portions are large and were more than enough to have two meals if you wanted to. Food is good and I would recommend going again.

I must admit I was very pleasantly surprised that Chinese delivery could be this good. Delighted actually.
Crab rangoon had a generous tasty filling that went beyond just cream cheese, making dipping sauce optional.
I agree with another reviewer regarding Mongolian Beef.
Beef, onions, and spicy sauce as it should be. No veggie fillers. It was delicious. Enough for at least two meals even for hearty appetites.
Shrimp fried rice was good.
House special mei fun was good as well, albeit a tad bland. It needed something, possibly heat or a smidge of golden curry. That's probably on me. I didn't mention a heat level preference. I was expecting it to be like Singapore noodles I've had.
Three entrées and an appetizer at $33.34.
Excellent experience.
