Chop Chop used to be our favorite. Lately, like in the past 6 to 9 months, I think they are trying to cut costs. Nothing is the same. The chicken is weird and a funny oil taste. The chow mein is super greasy. The sweet and sour pork is lower grade meat and has a bitter taste in the sauce. Even the hot mustard is watered down. I think the award for best in San Joaquin went to their heads or something happened. But I just wish they would do things (especially the garlic chicken) the way they used to. It's so dissappointing. But food is too expensive for the quality. Such a shame!
