My food was very good! I had Kung Po Beef. They had Hot Jasmine tea. I like the fragrance of Jasmine flowers but the tea I do not like. Our waiter did offer Green tea which is ok but I prefer Oolong tea with dinner. I opted for water. If I would have known ahead of time I would have brought my own tea bags. It just says Hot Tea on the online menu. Still I recommend this restaurant.

The food has been delicious both times I visited. The ambience is very low key...quiet, dim lighting ..Very nice for a dinner date. The staff are professional and courteous wait staff. Prices most reasonable for the generous portions. This is a new favorite!

Extensive menu, good food and fast service. Surprised to find lamb in the menu! Our waitress however never actually answered our questions, she just did it. Took a little getting used to. Example, could you please pack my rice separately? Did not answer, just did it.

Very average American Chinese restaurant. The Hot-n-Sour soup was mediocre. The combo General Tso Chicken and Shrimp was okay. The sauce was thick and salty. There were no vegetables. The Fried Rice was an optional $1.50 and was a tiny portion. To top it all off, I discovered 2 bugs on the table. 1 looked like a small tick, the other was one of those small red spiders.Do yourself a favor and skip this place.

We’ve been here in the past and things have been good but last night was not. We called and asked if we could get a Peking Duck and they said yes. An hr later we arrived. We started with spring rolls which were actually egg rolls when they arrived, but we just ate them and said nothing. They brought out the Peking duck for us to see then took it back and brought out the carving cart. Upon eating out first “wrap” it was extremely dry. We asked for another bowl of plum sauce. Each of us had 2 “wraps” and we were done. The legs on the platter were shriveled broken messes. The waiter was surprised we didn’t eat much and we explained it was so dry it was unpleasant. We are Peking Duck fans and have eaten this all over the world and we know it’s not “crispy” duck - it was deep-fried twice and all moisture was taken out. I doubt we will be back....at least not for the duck.

Pretty sure from how good the outside smelled that the food may had been told delicious. But unfortunately for them, they did not receive my business. Due to COVID-19 I understand there is a high demand for take out and a lot of places should be grateful they are open.. this place d if NOT want my business .they lady who answered was very rude and rushy then stated she was so busy. I ended the call & don’t ever plan on walking past or trying to reorder ever again. And my family of 6 loves Chinese

Really nice place for a Valentine's Day date. Real table cloth, silverware, wood paneling and mirrors.inside. Do not let the outside fool you as it is located in a strip store. Staff was courteous and attentive even under a heavy workload during peak time. Bathrooms were clean and handicapped accessible.The food arrived promptly, hot, and had a really good flavor. Portion sizes were excellent. We didn't have an empty glass for more than a couple of minutes even though we were in an out of the way area from the main dining section because of the large dining crowd. I definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to my next visit.

This place is the best Chinese food in the Columbus area that I've found. It doesn't look like that much from the outside, but the food is excellent, and the service is very good if you dine-in. The prices are right in line with any other restaurant in the area. Worth the trip, you won't be disappointed if you like good Chinese food.

Hidden in a shopping center, Hunan Lion is easy to overlook. The decor is very nice and upscale. The food quality is a step above your typical carry out meal, but still relatively affordable.I would recommend this to anyone looking for a a slightly upscale Chinese meal.
