Where are the best ethnic food places in the 40/42 area? There are so many places to choose from. So far I like the Jumbo China Buffet in the WalMart plaza, La Cocina is awesome, and Papa Joes pizza is great. What are your favorites?

chinese: that little place on the end of the shopping center on 70 in clayton at amelia ch and 70 where the winn dixie used to be....china delight maybe? i have no idea what the name is, but we've been eating it for years... and another vote for venero's for pizza
Is that the brick house looking thing. We went there for the first time 2 weeks ago. Man, their garlic knots are to die for!! I have to vote this too. Great food!!!!!!!
GG they actually use REAL butter. Not margarine. If more restaurants would use real/not thrifty products just to try and save a penny, they would get more business. I think I may go here tonight! Quality baby!
Mexican - Fiesta Pizza - No Clue Chinese - Pei Wei's (owned by PF Chang's) in Raleigh Local - New China in Fuquay
pizza- still looking Chinese- by lowes foods on 70 Mexician-all Sandwiches- Formanos Burger- undecided
Local Mexican - Pancho's Pizza - Pizza Hut Chinese - none Triangle area Pizza - Andy's Pizza - Millbrook and Six Forks area Chinese - Peking Garden in Raleigh ======================= Someone advised me that the new Mexican restaurant on East Main Street in Clayton is very nice and the food was excellent. This is located on Main Street close to Hudson Hardware. It was the original location of Andys in Clayton. All the businesses in this small strip mall are Mexican oriented. Anyone tried this restaurant yet?
You cannot get really good Chinese/Mexican/pizza at a chain restaurant. If you want good, you need to go to an out of the way, Mom & Pop place. The last good Mexican restaurant around here used to be across from the Howell theatre. It's long closed, though.
Jumbo China Buffet in WalMart plaza. Never. This is the Chinese Restaurant that was almost shut down a couple of years ago because of sanitation concerns. One of the concerns was while the inspector was in the restaurant one of the employees sampled an item on the buffet, took one bite, and put the remaining portion back in the serving tray. My understanding is it was a member of the managements family. Is this employee still there? Enjoy your Jumbo China Buffet!
Ewww!! I've been outvoted a few times and had to eat there. I was ill after every single time. I absolutely REFUSE to go there now.
well if ya'll are ever in wilson here are my favs chinese: good taste mexican: el tapitio pizza: mamma mias now for garner area: chinese: china king at timber dr (its owned by the same people ken is talking about) mexican: el dorado!!! pizza: roadrunners but i love veneros in clayton
Mexican: Mucho Mexico in Smithfield is pretty good Italian: Venero's Chinese - usually use Jumbo China beside Fl at 40/42 Chili's at White Oak is also a favorite for several entrees! Wish we had a nice coffee shop up there! :mrgreen:
Not included in the thread heading but I have to say: Deli/Bagels - Big Steves - does not get any better than a toasted onion bagel sandwich at Big Steves!
