Chicken Gourmet Express is a simple Chinese Takeout Place, I think they're cash only. There's a variety of entree options and meal options (e.g "fried rice with 2 entrees", "white rice with 2 entrees", "chow mein and fried rice with 2 entrees", etc.) I've been a couple times when I was in the area, I'm not sure if I'd go out of my way to get there. For a Chinese takeout cafe (like a Panda Express) I'd say it's pretty good. I've mainly tried the battered chicken stuff and veggies, but the entrees seemed pretty fresh. Sign of the times, a fried rice and 2 entrees was $13.40 (including tax), but it was a lot of food. Not trying to biased against Panda Express because sometimes it gets the job done, I like this place for a quick and easy meal.

So I went there for the first time a few days ago and what I will say is the staff was very friendly I don't like that they take cash only for some reason it wasn't taking my card and their ATM so I had to walk up the street to the bank so if you are going to go to this place make sure you have cash. I got a three item and I got spicy chicken and teriyaki chicken definitely will say that I like the teriyaki chicken rice and chow mein were kind of normal. What I will say about this food is make sure you eat it hot and fresh because this is not food that's good when it's cold or being warmed up the next day it leaves like a weird after tasting your mouth. I also got the pot stickers which they were good and I got chicken egg rolls which had a lot of vegetable and a little bit of chicken so if I do go back I probably won't get those again overall the food was pretty decent they give you a big portion and it was decently priced.

What the heck is with these bad reviews? It's not a gourmet place, nor is it authentic Chinese. But it's a delicious indulgence of Chinese American food. It's cheap and so good - just don't eat it everyday.

Nothing special, but it isn't bad if you're in a rush for Chinese Food. Like other fast foods, it's salty and not that fresh, but at least you can get a larger portion of vegetables - if you choose. Does not take credit cards. They charge you for a bag even though they're told a bag is not needed. Another negative, they do not allow dine-in. Pre pandemic, there was dine-in, but the endemic era, I don't understand why dine-in options are not available; they don't see to have any fewer staff now as compared to pre pandemic, so I've changed my 2 star review to 1 star because they don't take credit cards or allow dine-in, especially with similar style restaurants allow dine-in and use credit cards for payment.
