Best Chinese in DC. Hands Down

Posted by spagball | Aug 13, 2009 | Mark as Inappropriate

I've gone to City Lights for years and never been disappointed. I've been to the DC and Bethesda locations. Dined in and ordered out. The food has always been top notch. I have never had a bad meal from City Lights. They have a large menu and something for everyone. Do yourself a favor and check them out.

Delivery Orders

I've never been to the restaurant, only ordered delivery. It wasn't cheap but the food has always been excellent every time I've ordered and I've been doing that for over 8 years.

Go somewhere else

I went for lunch. They had no lunch menu so I was forced to spend $13 for Chicken with Cashew Nuts. It had no veggies, just chicken in a bland sauce. Of course it was a dinner sized portion so half went to waste. While eating there, 3 customers came in enquiring about a lunch menu and all were turned away. How stupid is that? Needless to say, I won't be going back.
