En Lai Chinese Kitchen in Albany

We ordered takeout on Christmas eve via Grubhub which didn't come out until 30 minutes after they said to come. The place was dead when we went to pick the food up so that doesn't make a lot of sense.The wonton soup was pretty bad. The wontons themselves were thick and gummy with very little filling and almost no flavor.I ordered a general tso's chicken combo with shrimp lo mein. They gave me white rice instead of the lo mein. I could see one mistake like that. But we also got white rice instead of an order of chicken fried rice. This seems almost intentional. Either that, or they're incredibly negligent.Meh... do yourself a favor and skip this place.

One of my favorite places. The food is always good and the staff are nice.

En Lai Chinese Kitchen in Westgate Plaza has been one of my go to places for Chinese food for many years. The food here IMO is very tasty and reasonably priced. My Dad used to eat lunch here every week when he worked in the area. I also took several of my lunch breaks here when I worked a few miles from here back in the 1990s. Back in the 1990s, they used to offer an All You Can Eat Chinese Buffet with fountain drinks for under $5¸which is no more today. However, they offer 53 Lunch Specials (until 3PM) for $4.50 served with pork fried rice or white rice and you can add soup, egg roll, or soda for 75 cents more.  They also offer 37 Special Combination Plates served with pork fried rice or white rice & egg roll. Most dishes are priced under $10. I was in here recently for lunch takeout. I ordered the L38 Eggplant with Shrimp in Garlic Sauce ($4.50) with pork fried rice and added a cup of Chicken Noodle Soup ($0.75). The food was cooked to order in the open kitchen and ready to go in under 10 minutes. Served...
