It fills the void for chinese food. With a little drive there is more consistent restaurants.
Excellent food, with huge portions! They are strictly carry out.
We have had eaten their good a few times a year in the past 6 years hoping each time maybe it would be different and find a good dish and ordered something that we didn't eat before. At first a few dishes were so-so and missing a lot of ingredients that other restaurants would use. I have eaten that many Chinese restaurants in my life and many different states. this is one of the worst Chineese restaurants ever. Tonight we tried sweet and sour pork and sweet and sour chicken. Hoping they improve from the almond chicken dish and broccoli beef we ordered a month ago. The rice is always Bland it's not fried it's just a brown rice. The chicken they use is what they call Woody chicken and this is a disease of the chicken itself that is in the breast. Just look it up Woody Chicken on google. And the store you can get it also by accident because it's really thick and striated meet muscle very tough and chewy. Doesn't taste good. In the store when you buy chicken you cannot see that it's woodiness necessarily always. The top of the breast will be a little whiter and harder in the package. If you could see underneath the chicken breast before your buy it, you would notice that it has striations like beef roast does when cooked. They get the very low quality and chicken when it's Woody because it's cheaper their sauces are nasty no taste. I think the sweet and sour sauce for the chicken was light corn syrup with little tiny bit of vinegar and water it was gross. We will never eat there again we are done. They have never opened up their inside of their restaurant since covid that is pretty dirty in there. To be honest after reading all these other reviews in the last six to eight years and current there's more negative about this place I am so surprised they're still open they need to close down and open up a really good Chinese restaurant find someone who knows how to cook Chinese food and not skimp out on the ingredients and the quality also the Wok restaurant in Adrian is also not very good. I tried their coconut shrimp and that wasn't good. I tried other stuff there and it wasn't good either so we don't have good Chinese food down in this area. I guess I have to go to Ann Arbor or Toledo. I make better Chinese food than that. The Oriental sizzle does not even do fried rice correctly there's nothing fried about it nothing in it and this has happened more than once once I suggest we petition to get this restaurant closed. According to these reviews that I read people have been getting slimy food and have been getting sick so maybe we need the Health Department to inspect them unexpectedly.
My husband wanted to give it a try so we did, I want to say it was the worst food I've had in awhile. The almond chicken they forgot my sauce it was dry and not good my husband's had a little sauce and the rice and lomein noodles we had were not very good either very dry was looking for to it but was very disappointed
I ordered sweet and sour chicken. Chicken was drenched in sauce making some of the chicken soggy and nasty. The rice had no flavor and no veggies, egg roll tasted very off. I wouldn't eat here again.
I'm new to the area and hoped to find a good Chinese restaurant. This one isn't it. The food was tasteless. I got the General chicken and it was hard and tasteless. My son had the beef with Chinese vegetables and he said it was tasteless. The fried rice and egg rolls also were not good. Worst restaurant I have ever had food from in my life and I am almost 70.
Nasty!!! Used to go here and never again!!! This is not Mongolian Beef! It had meat I have no idea what it is and fat greasy gravy! Spoke with server and he argued paid the $49.87 no tip and left, could not eat! Took 2 tastes yuck! Was there to celebrate my husband's birthday like we do every year there.
Really good, the food which I ordered was egg drop soup, which is egg yolk and white rice and honey chicken, they do have large proportions and it was pretty cheap, all together for 3 was around 36 dollars.I would love to come here again.
I love their almond chicken! It s delicious
Great food, bad thing is they never opened for sit down after the pandemic, so its take away only. Vegetarian options: Most items can be made vegan or vegetarian
Still the best Chinese food Ive had hands down!
Delicious hot & sour soup and crab rangoons!
This place is notorious for giving you huge pieces of chicken, so I called and requested for them to cut the chicken smaller and got just what I asked for.
The chicken and broccoli dish was inedible. The chicken was rubbery and disgusting. Bland and not worth the money at all. Look elsewhere for your Asian cuisine cravings...
Super gross. Chicken and broccoli comes with white sauce... Which was not expecting. It was gross. The brown sauce has barely any taste, watery and not actually brown sauce...but what it did tastes like slimy sewer water. The water chestnuts and veggies had a sort of slime to them from the sauce. The chicken was super chewy and gross. Nobody was able to eat their meals, but we tried. The cream ragoons taste like straight cream cheese with sugar in them. Nothing like any Ive had before. They were odd, but not the worst. Egg roll was good tasting. Fried rice was bland, gross and didnt have ANY veggies, soy sauce or flavor. There were like 5 pea sized sprinkles of egg in it lol Honestly, we were wanting to like this place. We are looking for REALLY good Chinese food and heard great things about this place. Service on the phone seemed REALLY great. Order was 100% correct as well. Packages were sealed tight so no messy rides or spills on the way home, which we really appreciated. Not even a bad price for Chinese takeout. Pretty fair prices. Picked up food, smelled amazing. All so far was great! Got home and ate it and it was so gross. We ended up throwing away almost 3 full meals they were so gross. We are a bit of our meals. I ate 2 crab ragoons and 3 bites of chicken with sweet water sauce, and got an upset stomach almost immediately ( within an hour). My stomach was a mess for about 24 hours. My husband are half of his and had a bad stomach for over a day. Without going into detail, he has spent a lot of time in the restroom miserable after. My son, who has an iron stomach barely ate his and was ok. Just didnt feel great, but no other issues but an upset feeling stomach. I dont know what went wrong, bit it was not worth returning unfortunately.
Only take out
General tso
The best!! Vegetarian options: They got vegetarian options. Parking: EZ spots adjacent to the front door and then the plaza general parking as well. Kid-friendliness: They don t mind kids. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level establishment and tables that will accommodate those in wheelchairs in restaurant.
This is a gem located in the back corner of a strip mall. You will leave feeling great and plotting your return. Vegetarian options: Ample parking and most any dish can be made vegetarian.
The food is fantastic some of the best Ive ever had and the fine folks who keep us happy here at Oriental Sizzling are very kind and friendly. Ive been eating here for some years now and its my favorite Chinese place Ive ever had the sincere pleasure of being a very happy repeat customer of. Parking is abundant and the service is first class. Also important the prices are one of the best values out here but even if they werent the food is top shelf.
Oriental Sizzling used to be my favorite Chinese restaurant in our area. However the last 2x I ve been there the food tasted gross. I gave them a second chance today and it tasted gross! Never again!
This use to be one of my favorite restaurants for years dine in or take out. The prices went up and the quality down. I ordered the Sesame Chicken and the rice was mushy, stale and the chicken brick hard. No broccoli. This isnt the first time. Very disappointed.
Some of the most sorry Chinese food Ive ever seen. Pretty sure they water down all of the sauces. The sweet and sour is pathetic. The crab rangoon is ok thats why they get 2. But dont dip it in their s&s&h2o sauce. Yuk.
Probably the best Chinese in MI. Recommend, almond boneless chicken, won ton soup, fried dumplings, crab rangoon and chicken with broccoli. The service is great! Prices are good also.
Worst..food..ever..Im so angry..no flavor..slightly under cooked.. totally dissipointed we used to eat there all the time and loved it! This time it was beyond bad.
Best Chinese is the county.
I ordered two different diahes and both tasted like old rotten fish and we ordered dishes that didnt have any fish in it. One dish had curry and you could still taste the foul fishy flavor. We threw it out, very disappointing!
Makes me sad to write this review but the quality here is in the toilet. This place used to be great but today I ordered general Tsos chicken and it smelled like old rotten fish as one person posted. Flavor is lacking and it s no where near what it used to be like pre Covid. Might be time for this place to close its doors sad to say.
Great food. We had beef and broccoli, chicken chow mein, generals chicken, egg rolls and all was very good. Take out only.
Wonton Soup had no taste, absolute worst Chinese food ever
Placed an order with sauce on the side got home sauce was in the order and they didn t want to replace my food. Would not recommend this place. Very sloppy and messy.
We order from here once every few months or so, and the food and service is always great. Consistent! Hard to find consistency in fast food and Oriental Sizzling consistently delivers good food that doesnt waver from one order to the next; always tastes the same. Very kind and respectful staff as well, 5 stars!
Consistently great food!
Food and service both are excellent!! What a great little gem hiding in the back corner of the plaza! So glad it was recommended by a friend to try it out. I had my grandbaby with me and they didnt make me feel bad at all for her being her lol, playing with her silverware and having to say hello to people as we got ready to leave. Very nice pleasant atmosphere. Thank you!
Good food for all occasions.
Great food but standing out in the cold is just not necessary. Why they dont open their restaurant again is a cost saver l guess , not sure but at least have a warmer place to pick up stuff?????
Best Chinese in Tecumseh hands down!!
Love the food Very consistent and a friendly crew always
It was OK...I purchased the Sichuan beef and Shrimp fried rice. The Sichuan beef was OK but the shrimp fried rice was flavorless and really could have used a vegetable in the rice as well.
Flying ant In my wonton soup.
Needs to open dining room back up
Good food and plenty, but advertised prices are lies, and the cashier was rude and dismissive when I mentioned it.
Good food
Best Chinese food in the area hands down. I have always enjoyed their honey chicken and Wonton soup. I thoroughly enjoy every time I go here!
Not sure if they are new owners but the price is up and the quality went way way down !
No clue how this food ever gets a good review. It s the worst , nothing about the meal we ordered looks appealing and it lacks flavor and quality.
Best oriental food and service around at a reasonable price. I always have enough for 2 meals.
We got carry-out through the pandemic and it was always delicious. I am a fan of their Egg Foo Young. Just perfect. A friend loves the Almond Boneless Chicken. They have kept their quality up throughout this mess. Looking forward to our first dine-in experience. We love the gentleman who is the waiter.
Take out, I got Chicken LoMein and 2 egg rolls and it was delicious. After filling my plate I still have enough for 2 more servings.
Drove 20 minutes to find a note on the door stating, Take Out Only. How about you update your website to indicate that!
This food is absolutely horrible. It has no flavor at all. The rice is hard and the almond chicken is chewy a flavorless. Their restaurant is filthy and I will not be back. Way over priced
Very Good!
Good food but order sauces on the side, otherwise your chicken is soggy. Sweet and sour chicken would have been great but with them putting the sauce on it made the chicken soggy and the sauce seeped into the rice.
The food is delicious. When it was dying in, we were entertained by our witty server, and we have been back many times. Very consistent quality very consistent good service.
My family and I used to frequent this restaurant quite often, the quality of food is decent. The quality of customer service took a big hit when I attempted to place an over the phone order for carry out. I called and someone picked the phone up and just left it off the hook, didn t say a word. I waited a couple of mins, and tried calling back numerous times and got nothing but a busy signal. So I drove up there and there was a guy at the door taking orders, this was when indoor dining was shut down. He attempted to take my order but I questioned him about the phone incident, and his response was We are busy So I said, nevermind...thanks I totally understand not being able to do over the phone orders during a rush but when someone calls and you pick up the phone. Let them know the situation and tell them to stop in to place an order instead. That s common courtesy, that s good customer service. I don t care how good your food is, if you can t treat customers with respect...then you won t get my business.
Hidden gem!
Have had only great experiences here. Their food is really good too. Currently its take out only
Always consistently delicious.
This was the absolute worst food we ever tried to eat. My hubby had sweet and sour chicken. Luckily for him, the sauce made it edible. I had the shrimp and vegetables. Absolutely God awful. The shrimp was so overcooked that it literally turned into mush. The fried rice was also mush and extremely bland. No amount of soy sauce could make it taste better. I ordered hot and sour soup. I dont know they gave me but it definitely wasnt what i ordered. The only good part about the meal was the fortune cookies. Soup, shrimp, and rice went directly into garbage. You can bet we wont be back.
Its been hit or miss lately. Usually good food but my last order (they are only offering take-out), shrimp fried rice, was not good. Ill wait until covid settles down before going back again.
No thank you, this is not good Chinese food.
Worse food and service ever. General Taos chicken had no broccoli and vegetable lo mein had no vegetables in it. Last time I go here. Was so disappointed
Im sorry but I rather drive to Adrian to get any Asian food. The only thing Ive found halfway decent here is the lo mein and it was nothing special.
Of all the Cantonese (Chinese) food Ive had, I still always come back to this place.
Great food, eat hear at least once a week my favorites are gen tso, cashew chicken, almond chicken and honey chicken my wifes is the same but in shrimp.
The food was soo good. The service was friendly and quick.
Jim
Excellent food and service
Okay food
Great food !!
Loved it
Pretty good
I live 60 miles away in a much larger metropolitan ayarea and Orientsl Sizzling is still our choice for the best Chinese food. Great tasting food, gravy or sauce is light and bright not thick and heavy, crisp vegetables. Excellent portions and reasonable prices. Worth the hour drive for us.
Very disappointed in our dinners and egg rolls were greasy and burnt. Open the bag grease all over containers. 2 sauces stacked on top of each other and melted through. Chicken had a weird taste old grease or something mostly hard breading. We won t Be eating there anymore!
Tecumsehs finest Chinese cuisine. Great food! Wonderful people too. One of my favorite places to dine. Delish
We always have good service and wonderful, fresh food from Oriental sizzling!
Very good food and service
Good food and fast service
I have been coming to this place since I was a little kid. Even when we had moved out of state every time we came back to Michigan to visit we had to make her way to Tecumseh for Chinese food. When we walk in the waiter always knows what we get how many should be there. It is actually a place where we make lots of memories I would definitely recommend this place to anyone it is the absolute best
Good food most of the time
Excellent carryout, but dine in is hit or miss.
My fiance and I come here alot for our date nights and are never disappointed :)
Great Lunch Specials
Just wondering if they are ever going to reopen for takeout?
The food is good. And the people who work at the counter are nice. But the guy who served us had an attitude like we were annoying him for being there. Even on pick up orders, before I even finish writing my name on the credit card slip, he points to the tip section. He will say tip, tip tip . Again the food is good there but every time I have an interaction with that guy it makes me want to take my business else where.
The best Chinese food you can get. I always get the almond chicken and its amazing every time. Portions are massive, staff is friendly. Peaceful and quiet environment also.
I never give negative reviews but employees are rude. One of my friend had informed me earlier if you order anything the guy would say that will cost you extra with rude tone like we care committing mistake by adding something to your order . At least he could smile yes I paid 75 cents for chilli sauce packet but hated getting yelled at for being their customer.
Owner needs to communicate better. Said we open but didnt say that carry out only. Disappointed.
Sorry to report this place is going down hill quickly. Not only did they give me the wrong soup but the food is very bland. Not worth the drive to Tecumseh anymore for Oriental food. They also charge extra to wash a plate or bowl.
The food is rather inexpensive for the amount that you get and it tastes delicious. 10/10.
Good food with HUGE portions!
Wonderful and kind service.
I went a couple weeks ago normally the food is fantastic but I cant say that I got a couple egg rolls and some chicken fried rice and some soup I ended up eating the egg rolls and soup saving the fried rice for the next day. I heated it up and after the first bite I spit it out it was HORRIBLE I have never had chicken fried rice taste this bad the next day! I dont know if its because there isnt a huge turnaround I have eaten fried rice from here before but this meal was enough I wont be back!!!!
Called to place a pick up order, asked if I could pay over the phone due to my husband picking it up and didn t have the card on him, the guy there rudely said pay at pick up and hung up on me before I could explain that my husband didn t have a card with him. Called back to tell him what the case was and asked if I could please pay over the phone, the man once agin rudely kept interrupting me telling me pay at pick up then said your order is canceled and hung up on me! Will not be back here! Never had a problem with the food but the was I was spoke to is highly unprofessional!
Top shelf food.... Love...
Was going to order but after reading reviews hesitant, used to go there all the time food was fabulous, last few times owner/waiter was very rude, kept saying i have to charge for that, funny when i eat in you dont charge to use table mustard but if i ask for a container to take home u charge, i said fine charge me then u get attitude, at this point i dont know how you stay in business, customer service sucks
best chinese food around
Absolutely the worst Chinese food I have ever had
Great food and selection. All was great!
Still love this place. Orange chicken dont wimp out when they ask you if you want it spicy say yes. Its not all that spicy.
Good food and excellent service.
Terrific food. Grey staff.
Best Chinese food ever! I live in metro Detroit now and miss the Chinese food that I enjoyed regularly, throughout my childhood and up until I graduated high school and moved away.
This is where I go for good General Tso chicken. Best place in town.
Love the food and great service
It was wonderful we caught it just before they closed and the staff is always so good when I go there I cant thank everyone enough especially the cook.
My husband and I have come here many times and the food and service is always GREAT! Best in town and around as far as I am concerned...
Pretty good...big portions...
Great food and very attentive waitstaff. Highly recommended
Incredible food and massive portions. I always have enough leftover for a whole extra meal. Prices are super reasonable and the restaurant itself its just very well decorated. Everyone who moves out of Tecumseh always misses Oriental Sizzling, and its not hard at all to see why.
Great food! Good atmosphere. Clean!
For an inexpensive place with the last letter of CHINESE FOO_ on the Marquis missing, I was amazed. The decor was quite nice and the food was excellent! The wonton soup had an unusual and lovely flavor, not the bland that wonton CAN be. Highly recommend.
Delicious!
Amazing! Amazing! AMAZING!!!
Great fresh and delicious food at a good price. The owner can be a bit short at times. Be sure to tip
My first time there, the food and service was very good.
Always great food. The staff are so friendly.
Great food great staff
Great place for Chinese food
The food is always delicious and the portions generous. The only complaint is about the man who waits on customers. He just comes across as cold and at times pushy.
Big pieces of real chicken with delicious general tso sauce. The veggie fried rice and the crab cheese are the best. Also, if you like an extra kick try the homemade spicy mustard!
Food here is pretty good, but the waiter (who has a control issue and HAS to be the ONLY waiter), is not friendly and is very condescending!! I do my best to tolerate his behavior, so that we can enjoy the food. This place needs a serious upgrade in customer service.
My absolute favorite place to get Chinese food. They have the best sesame chicken, egg rolls and fried wonton soup. I go here at least once a week. Staff is always friendly and service is always fast!
First time here. Will be back. The food was delicious
FANTASTIC!!
Stopped here for the first time with my wife in mid July. Overall, food was good, she had boneless almond chicken and it looked and tasted great. Huge portions of food. Crab Rangoon and wanton soup came with it and it was very good (according to her). I had General Tso chicken, but instead of fried, I went with steamed chicken. My food was not excellent, but it was decent. The sauce was the second hottest they make, but it had very little spice and was just overly sweet. The chicken was decent tasting itself though. But the sauce was simply too sweet and not spicy enough. The hot and sour soup was very good. The place was clean. Service was good. Prices are reasonable. I would try something else next time instead of General Tso chicken.
Excellent food.
Best chi else food. Delicious. Big portion. Quick service
Awesome great Chinese food best egg drop soup ever
First time coming here, ordered carry out sweet and sour chicken with white rice and two egg rolls hands down worst Chinese food I have ever had. Friendly girl at the counter but was just not impressed with the food at all. Hate to say it but I won t be coming back here.
Two words. Crispy noodles! The best place in the area.
Love their food. The only waiter in the place is very frugal with the lemons. He must think they cost a fortune. Everytime I ask for extra, he brings me one slice. If you pay by credit card, he watches you like a hawk. Once you sign it, he swoops in, reaches across in front of you to pick it up. Looks at it and if he doesnt like the tip, he will let you know. We play his game.....watch him go into the kitchen, sign it, and rush out the door. Ha ha ha!! But I got to say the food is excellent, hot, and well priced!!
This is the best Chinese place Ive ever been to. Ive been to many over the years. Too many to count probably. The food quality and flavors that this restaurant accomplishes are second to none. The portion sizes on the dinner entrees never fail to impress either. I usually get the Szechuan delight, and it comes out on a platter. I always have leftovers. Their crab Rangoon will be your new standard, and their egg rolls are big and stuffed full, all while not being overly fried or too greasy. If Im wanting the best of the best Chinese food, I go to Oriental Sizzling in Tecumseh.
Was very good. Food was hot and delish. Definitely going back.
I love the food here, the portions are generous and the dining room is clean.
Best Chinese food in the area!
Food no good
Food was better must have chanheed cooks
Amazed at the serving size you get with your dish. Usually you get a ton of rice anywhere else Ive been. Here its just the opposite. An hour and a half from where I live but Ill come back for sure!!
Best fried dumplings
Pretty good food, their wonton soup is the best. The service is very quick and the people were super attentive.
Food is always great!
Keep my stuff safe i lake it
Ive never had any bad food from here. My food always comes as ordered and fresh. They give you large portions too! Best Chinese food around.
Fast and friendly service . prices were fair. For the amount of food you get.
Good place to eat
Best Almond Chicken ever...I drive over a hour just to eat here.
Great food and lots of it
Best Chinese I can find anywhere love this place! I reccomend the entire menu!
Very nice place, great service, staff and environment!! Definitely recommend going here if you want some good food. Great for friends to meet up and get a bite.
Best Chinese in town!
