Republic Cafe & Ming's Lounge

I only do the take out here because the food is good. Like Hung Far Low was before they left DT and then closed for good. Gosh, I miss that place, This comes very close! Prices are good and food is even better. I don’t even care that the place looks like trash. Every time I’ve ate here, it has been up to par. I’ve also only come at night when it’s dark and sketchy but for some reason I feel right at home picking up my delicious dinner.

Authentic American Chinese food! Reviewed by an American born Chinese. Food: It incorporates traditional Chinese flavors with an American twist. (Importing Chinese produce and ingredients back in the 20th century was difficult so immigrants adopted what they could find in America) Service: Chinese style Atmosphere: Dim lit retro cafe theme. Restaurant/lounge was kinda warm and not much air circulation. Price: American Chinese food at affordable prices $10-$15 range. Open late with many dish options Ordered the "special combo" that has sesame chicken, pork fried rice and chow mein.

I ordered there last night on Grubhub and it was so good!!! I wasn’t expecting it to be cause I’ve never been there and it’s usually hit or midd and random Chinese food places but I was super lucky to have great food! There rice was probably the best rice I had in such a long time. Wish I would have gotten the generals but that’s what I’m getting next time!
