Customer Reviews
I can’t speak highly enough about Backstreet Takeout. The service is fantastic! The food taste just like the dishes from 25 years ago, when it was Bays Corner. Having to work the school day, I don’t get to partake in the deliciousness as much as I would like. I highly recommend the cheezy chicken and I love the red beans and rice. Multiple toppings can be added to enhance the dishes. Best take away place around!
I have driven by this place many times and today I decided to stop. I looked the menu over and asked what their best seller was. I was told it was the Cheesy Chicken. The marinaded chicken was placed over a bed of rice and topped with cheddar cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, crunchy noodles and onions. It was very good!
It is weird. I was expecting something that taste like Asian food and this doesn't. It doesn't taste bad, but it doesn't taste good either. Its an odd tasting gravy sauce with meat in it on top of rice with some additional toppings of your choise. It's affordable and a good value but the flavor is not for me, I only ate a few bites and threw it away.
Always fresh and delicious! The food is consistent and the staff are friendly. Think “build your own rice bowl.” I like the rice salad with cheese chicken. You get a base of rice and fresh, crispy romaine lettuce topped with their signature chicken in gravy, shredded cheese and any extra toppings of your choice (olives, cucumber, tomato, green onions, carrots, sprouts, crispy noodles) I recommend adding the ginger salad dressing. The servings are LARGE! Come hungry or easily share. Don’t forget dessert. The baked goods are the best in town.
Melissa's is amazing! Love the food and people! Cheezy chicken over seasoned rice is my absolute fave! Also love the half salad :) if the rice and beans is the special get that with Cheesy chicken, and you will thank me later.
