When I received the order, I had first thought that they had mixed it up because I couldn't figure out which was the Shrimp and Scallops. After careful taste testing, I realized that I mistook one dish for another, and after a quick laugh with my roommate, continued with my meal. I have come to expect a certain level of quality from restaurants like these, and Off the Wall hit the mark just right. It seems to me that only with Chinese takeout can you classify a restaurant as a "Good Kind of Bad" and have that acceptable. Off the Wall is definitely a "Good-Bad" spot that gets what you want, when you want it, at a very reasonable price.

I wish that these delivery restaurants could step into the digital age and realize if I want their menu that I'll find it online. No matter how much you bombard me with your menus, it won't make me order from you any more or any less. But I do appreciate you for what you are. Off the Wall has been around way before me, and I expect with its mix of speed, price and quality that it will be around for years to come. While the average food keeps my feet on the ground, it will also keep me coming back for more. But you know what really grinds my gears? People from the 19th century…

Food: 3/5
