This place holds a spot in my heart. The first time I ever ordered from here I called to have food delivered. Shortly after I realized I left my wallet at work. I called em back and explained what I did and why I couldnt pay for the food and wanted to cancel the order and apologized for my mistake. About 45 mins went by and there was a knock on my door. I opened the door and saw a delivery man holding a bag of food. He handed me the bag of food I had ordered and started to walk away. I told him about how I hadnt paid for it and I didnt want him to go back and get into trouble because of my mistake. The man turned around and told me " Its no problem sir, Im the owner and you need to eat today. Pay us back when you can." If thats not enough of a reason to order from these good hearted folks I dont know what is. On top of that the food is really good. Only down side, no sushi. Highly highly recommend them...

This place really did me wrong. I ordered delivery and Mike took my order; he was paid via credit card over the phone. Order showed up and it was wrong. I promptly called Rich City / Mike back to fix the order. He said the driver would come back in 45 mins with new food or he could refund me. I told him to give me the refund. The problem here, he never refunded me! I called Rich City / Mike back and he told me he talked to the boss and the boss does not give refunds on wrong orders. How bogus is that? The guy messes up my order, sends me food that I do not eat, offers me a refund and then decides, no, Im not going to give that any more. This was a place that I would order from once a week. They have now lost me from ever going back. Good job Mike.

THE WORST EVER, I ORDERED BONELESS FRIED CHICKEN #L16, NEVER DOES IT STATES THAT IT COMES OVER WEIRD VEGETABLES, SO SINCE I DIDNT KNOW THAT I COULDNT TELL THEM THAT I DIDNT WANT THE VEGETABLES. WHEN I RECEIVED IT I QUICKLY CALLED AND EXPLAIN THAT I DONT EAT THAT. THEY WERE RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL, IGNORANT AND UNWILLING TO CHANGE MY FOOD, SO I STAYED WITHOUT EATING AND PAID FOR SOMETHING THAT I DIDNT ORDERED OR EAT. PLEASE DO NOT EAT THERE, DO NOT ORDER FROM THERE. YOU WILL REGRET IT, I PROMISE YOU. THIS PLACE GETS A 0 AND A NEVER AGAIN WILL I OR ANYONE THAT I KNOW WILL GET FOOD FROM THERE.

Ive been eating at this place for about six years and it is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant in the city. The food is well prepared and delish, the staff is super friendly and personable, and the place itself is very clean and hospitable. Not a lot of people eat-in here, but I recommend it. My friends and I do every so often and its a nice experience. They have very good table service and its nice and peaceful. And the tea is really good! LOL. All in all this place is great. Whether you take-out or eat-in youre guaranteed an amazing dining experience.

Ive been ordering from here since they opened, probably 12 or more years ago. I have never been disappointed. The food is consistent, they use quality ingredients, and the service is stellar. Usually Im very leary of ordering chicken from Chinese restaurants after a few bad experiences with strange looking meat, but Rich City has never disappointed with the quality of their food. Really, they just cant be beat. Thank you Rich City, for years of satisying my cravings for Chinese takeout!!!

We love their food whether eating in or going take out. They are so friendly and nice. Food is great, very fresh, very consistent. Ive turned my friends at work onto the place and we frequently have them deliver to us at 6th and Chestnut and just meet their driver at his car. I highly recommend Rich City.

I order from this restaurant almost weekly, when I just cant bother to cook, and always get excellent food. General Tsos is my go to and the dumplings here are delicious! The delivery is usually earlier than specified, which is good for me, but might be something to keep in mind for others.

This was the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten! Not only was my order wrong, but it was very late! Im staying in a hotel and the food was delivered without utensils or napkins. The food was terrible. The chicken was under-cooked and the food was swimming in sauce. Just awful.

This restaurant has some of the greatest individuals working behind its doors. And, to me, thats a solid foundation for any quality business. Hands down the #1 establishment when it comes to takeout Chinese food in the city. I Love Rich City

Bummer... consistently good food, but will never order from here again. If someone who is supposed to deliver your food forces you to come downstairs with a broken ankle... NO. GOODBYE RICH CITY ASSHOLES.

They are the nicest people in the city, they knew my name after only being there 3 times, and the food is the best!
