369 Oriental Bistro



We got some takeout from 369 on a Friday night. The place came recommended by my husband's secretary, the same woman who gave us our cat (who is awesome) and recommended Auntie Chang's (not quite as awesome). We ordered thirty dollars worth of standard Chinese take-out fare: crispy spring rolls, General Tso's chicken, pork lo mein, white rice and two kinds of dumpling (vegetable and the ambiguously named "meat").

Our order arrived relatively quickly and still piping hot. Here's what the chicken looked like:



Yum.

Everything was good. Nothing was standout. We ordered typical Chinese take-out, and that's what we got. No more, no less, but a nice break from cooking.

The prices were a smidge high, but we got a lot for our money -- enough for dinner on Friday, lunch on Saturday and a snack for me on Tuesday evening. Should you drive across town to pick up food from Oriental Bistro? No. Should you consider ordering from there if you're feeling lazy and live within their "limited delivery area." Sure. Just remember to tip your driver.
