    Not so impressed

    After reading the reviews here, I thought, great, decent chinese food in Wicker Park. I'm a transplant from Seattle and have been jonesing for some good Kung Pao or Ma Po tofu. I walked down to this place. Unimpressive place - the windows were tagged, the floor was dirty and no customers were in the place - it looked like choosing delivery would result in your best dining experience. I put in an order to go, the appetizer array and Gen'l Tso's chicken. Both were real disappointments. All the appetizers were very greasy and they *all* seemed to have been seasoned with 5 Spice. Don't try the shrimp rolls, they're not worth the $. The chicken dish was okay, but the heat in the sauce came from a vinegary source, not the peppers usually employed. So all in all, I'll go back one more time and try something else to be fair, but first impression was I wasted my money on a bad meal.

    Best Kung Pow Chicken

    This is the best Kung Pow Chicken I've had, better then Chinatown in Chicago or NY. The chicken here is always extrememly fresh, and the lunch/dinner specials are the best deal in town!

    Perfect for cheep hangover takout

    For a city lacking in cheep and decent Chinese food Eat First stands out for great hangover takeout. Calling for pickup is the way to go, as the food is generally ready for you by the time you walk over there. 'Cause secretly we're all sick of Thai.

    Good Chinese Food, crazy-fast delivery!!

    I don't know how they do it, but the delivery guy is at my house in like 30 seconds with good, cheap Chinese delivery. Good portions, tasty too. Try the Chicken with Peapod or the Double Delight.
