⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Theresa McMiller
The line was very long and I waited for my turn to order. While I waited, I looked at the menu and chose Lo Mein shrimp and fried crab sticks. When I got my food, it hot to order and plentiful. The young lady cashier was very polite and accommodating. I was content with my fresh and hot food.

First time here. They opened at 2pm and I was there at 209pm and it was already packed. But it wasn't a long wait. I got the General Tso combo and a extra egg roll. The egg rolls was large and very good. The General Tso chicken was very fatty. I didn't care for that at all. The rice had a good flavor. So if I go back I'll try something else. The employees were very nice.

After hitting microcenter we were starving, decided on waffle house, but it apparently went pickup orders only at some point, so we hit google maps and found foon ying. Walked in and we're immediately impressed with how clean it was inside, staff was extremely friendly, and we got the happy family, egg drop soup, crab Rangoon's, shrimp mi fun, with a couple diet Cokes. Service was very fast, and the food was phenomenal. Very hot, you could tell the ingredients were all fresh just from the flavors and textures, Rangoon's were some of the best I've ever had. Zero grease, nice crunch that wasn't hard like I've had from other places. And on top of the stellar quality and service they were very busy, mostly pickup orders, but the customers never stopped. For transactions that usually took about 3-7 min max there was always someone in the lobby, but the line never got longer than 2 people during our meal. We were highly impressed with their effeciency. If it wasn't about a 2 hour drive we definitely would have made this place a new staple. I want to thank everyone at Foon Ying for the great experience, and the evident passion/detication to the craft we had the pleasure of experiencing during our visit. 😊

This location gets busy! Food is good, service is fast, and waiting in the lobby was no problem at all. Everyone was nice-- folks laughing and talking waiting for their order; it was nice. Lunch specials were very reasonable and served until 3pm. Whole order of food with fried rice and soup for under $10, you can barely get a 4 piece chicken nugget happy meal at McDonald's for what I spent and Foon Yin's portions are so big you can easily get two meals out of one order.

My four boys and I had a very good experience having dinner last night. I’ve been coming here for decades and on the way there I thought “How nice would it be if the dining area was open and remodeled?” But I figured I would take my chances with whatever condition the seating area was in upon arrival. BUT TO MY SURPRISE the dining area HAD BEEN remodeled!!! It’s beautiful! New clean tile, new seating, the bathrooms were clean and remodeled. The staff was kind and welcoming and very helpful. A 10 out of 10 experience. And according to my boys it is “The best Chinese food ever!” TYSM Foon Ying. We will be back!
