I went here to commiserate Trump being elected, and cant remember the last time Ive had such bad food. Which made it a perfectly fitting meal. The egg flour soup was this thick, artificial yellow, tasteless goop and served with stale saltines. How is that even possible to have stale saltines if theyre individually wrapped?! The egg rolls werent horrible themselves, but the sauce they were served with tasted like artificial jelly donut filling - seriously disgusting. Some of my mar far chicken had okay chicken inside way too much batter, but most of the pieces had a thin strip of dry, stringy chicken inside which was like bad turkey jerky with zero seasoning. The chow mein wasnt anything like actual chow mein, was super bland, and instead of having any actual noodles in it, they just threw in some mein gon crackers. Yes, I know mein gon are sometimes labeled "crunchy chow mein noodles", but they arent noodles and they are only meant to be sprinkled as a topping on chow mein. All that being said, it could have been worse. The vegetables in the "chow mein" were perfectly cooked (albeit tasteless), the tea was fine for that kind of place, the portions were very large if thats something you value, and it probably wasnt a high sodium meal due to everything being under seasoned. Oh yeah, I had to ask for chopsticks, there wasnt a drop of chili to be seen anywhere, and while service wasnt slow, our waiter was clueless and didnt even know what was in the dish I asked him about.

We ordered take out because some crazy person recommended the orange chicken. The chicken was boneless chicken thighs, skin still appeared to be on in a greasy,greasy, GREASY hard crust. The sauce was served on the side, instead of on the chicken, as part of the recipe. It was like liquidy orange jello - sugary, vaguly orange - no spice no flavor sauce. The chicken was so gross, we fed some of it to the dog before throwing the rest away - the dog had bathroom problems afterwards. We also ordered deep fried shrimp. The shrimp was NOT CLEANED prior to deep frying it. One bite in and we had to throw it away as well. Deep fried shrimp poop is not our idea of an acceptable dish. It came with a side of gelatinous sweet & sour sauce. We found the food not fit for our dog. - AVOID.

If I could give ZERO stars I would. There were 3 people in my party, we waited 10 minutes to be seated even though no one was in front of us and there were only 2 other groups in the restaurant, took another 10 minutes to order, our waitress spilled one of our drinks all over the table and all over my purse, after ordering we waited for a solid 47 minutes before we got our appetizer, another 15 minutes and our waitress finally realized we didnt have our food. She went to the kitchen and brought it out on her second trip from the kitchen. She tried to tell us it was the kitchens fault but the food was barely warm and the fried rice was completely cold. I will not be going back even if they paid me!!

This is one of my favorite places in Eugene/Spfd for a quick Chinese meal. The food is consistently good, and prices are low. For a classy meal, Ill go to Kowloons, or (a small step down) Ocean Sky. China Blue on campus has great Mandarin Chicken, if you dont mind waiting for the food. But with all these choices, I find myself going to Far Man more often than all the others put together, because Im usually after a good meal at a good price with good service.

We ordered the combination plate G. I liked the fried pork and shrimp... after removing the inch layer of batter. I thought the beef and broccoli was ok, but maybe it would have tasted better if i had a salt deficiency. I have had better, but to be fair some are worse. Seems like cheaper ingredients trumped up with sugar and breading. Just bring a pillow and some tums for your carb coma.

I used to love eating at this restaurant. USED to being the operative word here..... Recently, their service has sucked, their food has not been tasting very good and they ripped me off of over 20$ in ordered food. I suggest if you want to check out a place where you value good service, good food and not getting ripped off, you would be wise to go somewhere else.

My wife and I go here often and have for many years. Let me tell you though; at first blush its not the cleanest restaurant in town. However, the food is always hot and "top notch" if youre looking for American Style Chinese food. The pricing cant be beat in the Eugene/Springfield area.
