We were pleased with our lunch. Lunch special was $5.94. Includes soup or salad. I had the hot and sour. Loved it. 2 dumplings and steamed or fried rice. Hub got the veg dish. I got orange chicken. (appeared to be all white meat) Fast & cheap

First time here came on a Sunday, not many. Customers had to wait a bit for service ordered food took awhile to get. Ordered the chicken shrimp mango and eggplant with garlic sauce. The chicken shrimp mango was very blend no flavor to it, the eggplant with garlic sauce was very good. But not the best Chinese place to eat the price seems affordable. But slow service I would say not the best not the worst in town.

Coming from California my family was a bit skeptical about eating Chinese food in Utah. Well, surprise surprise! The food was excellent and the service perfect. It was the real deal.

This is now the best Chinese in Logan. That sadly isn't saying a lot, since Mandarin has gone downhill and Leo's on 3rd N is gone. We do enjoy it, and most everything is good and some items, like the the egglant, are great! We order all over the menu, mostly vegetarian and feel sorry for the typical locals who get the same breaded chicken goop, everyone at a table, same goop... Get brave Loganites! Point your finger at Happy Family or something and enjoy yourself.

Good food but they used too much MSG! If you get very thirsty, tired, sleepy, & maybe stomach ache, that's the effect of MSG. Good prices & good portions. I would have given this place 4-5 stars if they used less MSG or none at all for the health of their customers.

I was from out of town looking for some takeout. I ordered an Egg Roll, Won Ton soup and House Pam fried noodles. I was disappointed in the small size of the egg roll Although tastee the soup could have used more wontons and the noodle dish more and larger pieces of meat. Service was not good. I saw many worker but none to take my order. Another Customer was waiting 15 minutes for an order phoned in. She said this was not the norm.

I went here with my husband back when we were dating, the waitress was very nice, we ordered our food and it came out pretty quickly, my very first bite I smelled something horrid, I realized that the food smelled like URINE. I immediately called over my waitress and told her, she apologized and got me another plate, still smelled like Urine! YUCK, I was so upset and my husband smelled my food and agreed it smelled! The waitress disappeared and I got up to see where she was..She was back by the kitchen doors with the manager and THEY WERE LAUGHING. Are you kidding me? I didnt want to pay for anything so they gave me a discount. A way of saying "sorry your noodles smelled like pee". Never.Going.Back.Again.

Formosa has been around for a very long time and has a respectable local reputation. I ordered the tiny spicy chicken lunch special. It came with a large amount of chicken & rice, egg roll, and soup. The portion is big enough for almost 2 people. The quality of the food was better than I expected for cheap Chinese food. Cost - $5.50 It's not the best tasting Chinese food, hence my 3 star rating, but with respect to price you can't go wrong. I'll likely return

This used to be my favorite restaurant when I lived in logan 4 years ago. Now every time I come to town I still go there, but it has gone down hill drastically. Tonight I had there egg drop soup and it was cold! Then my food came and my lo main was cold as well! I had to ask them to microwave my food as well as my friends. The quality of the food has gone down hill so bad I will not be back which makes me really sad.

Food is okay ... But if they tell you they'll deliver, be wary! They left out several of our items and then I had to hassle with them to get a refund. Will not order from them again or go into their restaurant. Too many other good Chinese options in town: Black Pearl, Wok on Wheels and Mandarin Garden.

Formosa is about as good as it gets for Chinese food in Cache Valley. Their combination platters are a pretty good deal. Descent food that will leave you full for around $8-10 bucks. My favorite thing about this place is their homemade menu's. It looks like some stay at home mommy bloggers scrapbooking project that got horribly out of control. It's literally a three-ring binder comparable in size to that of a Cheese Cake Factory menu. I've seen less paperwork when applying for a home loan. Total overkill but I love it. A meal here won't change your life but it won't leave you doubled over on the bathroom floor like Panda Express, which sadly is about your only other option for Chinese food in Cache Valley.

I really do hate to slam a local business, particularly one where the nice folks working at the place appear to be giving it their best shot, but this really has to be said... Formosa Restaurant. Whoa. The hostess sat us without menus, then brought two waters for a three-person party. No biggie, I thought, we'll just wait a bit. She finally brought over the third water while our daughter was practicing pronouncing the names of the animals on the menu. The hostess complemented out daughter's Chinese. While I was beaming, I forgot to ask for menus. "No problem," I said. "She'll be back." When we finally got tired of waiting I stood up and walked over to grab a cuple of menus from the front of the restaurant. The server noticed, walked over to apologize and then -- before we even had a chance to open the menus -- asked us what we wanted to order. "It'll just take one minute," I said. She returned about 10 minutes later. The menu was a bit confusing. Seems that there are three or four different dinner specials, but it's not clear what the difference is between all of them, save for the price. Lots of asterisks. One note on the menu suggested substitutions could be made for a little extra cash. Never one to let a few dollars stand in the way of the meal I'd like to eat, I asked for a substitution. "We don't do that," the server said. But this note here? On the bottom of the menu? The one that says you do substitutions for a few extra bucks? I mean, I'll gladly pay the extra money. She consulted with another server. "Nope," they said. "OK, no big deal. I'll just have it like you've got it on the menu here." "How about steamed rice?" my partner asked. "Can I have that instead of fried rice?" "No steamed rice." "Oh," my partner said. "OK then. Whatever you have is fine." The hot and sour soup came fast. OK, I thought, that's a good sign. It wasn't terrible, but I can't recommend it. No biggie -- our favorite Chinese place in Salt Lake City went through a bad H&S phase, too. It happens. We finished the soup and waited. And waited. And waited. The food arrived. Mushy noodles. Flavorless shrimp. Really unimpressive chow mein. Fair to say, through, that the steamed rice wasn't half bad -- turns out they did have that after all. I sure wish I had ordered it, too, despite being told they didn't have it; the fried rice was dreadful. "This sweet and sour sauce taste like ketchup," our daughter said. "No it doesn't," I said. "It does," she protested. "Try it." I did. "See," she said. "You could put that on french fries."

I took my daughter out to eat, I had ordered the seafood noodle soup, I asked they had something to give it some flavor was very bland, the waitress asked me if I wanted to get another soup, and recommended one that was very good, then issues ready to give it to me she said that she would have to charge me for both soups, a business with the kind of customer service will never get my distance again

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
