Scam artists. Double charged me, attempted to charge me again before I stopped them, then refused to make the food they double charged me for. Absolute scam. Bet they don't even really have food back there, just a laundering front.

Wish I would have read the actually reviews and the dates prior to ordering but just went with the overall star rating and gave it a shot! BIG MISTAKE.. I usually do not waste the time to write a “bad review” but I would like to save the next victim their time and money if possible! Somewhat difficult to order there was a clear language barrier between me and the gentleman on the phone (not a deal breaker though) the prices have not been updated from their online menu so there is roughly a $2/3 difference on each menu item which is a little frustrating. My biggest issue was the actual food itself.. I ordered the lunch special Mongolian beef with rice as well as the hunan beef with rice and two shrimp egg rolls. Kind of hard to explain the taste of the beef but it taste as if it was boiled in water. Unsure how better to explain it but was very weird! Then every item had the same odd chemical after taste! To say the least I didn’t finish any of the food and threw it away with a fear of possible food poisoning. 24 hours later and I’m still alive and well so that’s a plus haha! Definitely the worst Chinese food I have ever had though so be aware!

He took my money then went directly over and grabbed food with his bare hands to toss onto the grill. I asked if he could please wash his hands and he ejected me from the restaurant.

Beef on a Stick was chewy, spring rolls were burnt and blackened , and sweet and sour chicken had dark meat in it. Wouldn’t order from them again.

OK - So you want good authentic tastes and sauces not like what you get in Panda Express at the airport...? Welcome to China Gourmet. I've been eating here for nearly 20 years and most of the family still runs the place. They did go through a chef change once in that time. Their food is so good and so consistent its unbelievable. From the apps, to main dishes - 5 stars. Try double cooked beef, shrimp in lobster sauce, fried dumplings, and ANY of the chefs choices you will be impressed by this hole in the wall. This is NOT an eat in proposition. Quite frankly a turn off if you choose to venture inside. They are very reasonable and they deliver. The BEST in Hagerstown. The buffet in the same shopping cent can't hold a candle to this family.

This is very small family owned take out restaurant. I am very picky about my Chinese food because of allergies. I discovered this place and is the only place for me to get Chinese. The owner is very nice. Food prices are decent and the food is very tasty. I hope they stay open forever.
When this place first opened in the late 1980's it was wonderful and the people who owned it were polite, friendly, and helpful. It has sunk to the bottom of the barrel these days though. The present owners are not up to par. We get delivery 3 to 5 times per week at assorted restaurants as we are both handicapped and this place overcharges us 85% of the time. We have proof of this on our security camera. The food is not good either.
