The Take
Order the steamed chicken and broccoli with brown rice and light sauce on the side. China House earns an 87 Slop Score as a textbook American-Chinese seed oil cathedral.
Default fryers run soybean and vegetable oil. Sweet sauces dump high-fructose corn syrup and cornstarch while MSG and long ingredient lists define every entree. Deep-fried items drive the business.
The Verdict
The based order is steamed chicken and broccoli, brown rice, sauce separate. Ask for no breading and keep it simple.
Avoid General Tso's, fried rice, crab rangoons, and lo mein. China House is an 87 Slop Score trap. Skip it.
