Decent little take out Chinese food place, everything are made to order (which means hot/warm everytime), most items are around 10 bucks with decent portions and you can feed a whole family for around $50 easily. I usually order the chow mein, fried wings, fried shrimps, beef and broccoli and seafood fried rice and I never get tired of them. If you are health consioucs though this place might not for you, these are your typical inexpense take out food so they are loaded with grease and pretty sure MSG as well I would still recommend it if you are craving for Chinese food.

They are currently open for take out only. Still the same great food at a reasonable price.

You can't go wrong with ordering take out here. They are a little hole in the wall Chinese restaurant. Everything is tasty and extremely reasonably priced. They have been open for years!!! They accept credit card too! Call to order and they'll be ready with your order within 10 minutes. So quick and easy.

Food: 5/5 This is amazing authentic Chinese food! They have delicious porridge, noodle dishes, rice dishes, and vegetarian options. The food isn't overly salty and is so full of flavor. You don't have to worry about any heating lamps for sitting dishes because they don't use them here. Everything is made to order and is as fresh as it comes. Price and portion: 5/5 I'm so surprised as to how much food you get for your money! I'm always smiling so much when I see how full my orders come. You can't beat the price. I've seen so many Chinese restaurants jack up their prices so much where I'm paying almost $15 for fried rice! Not here... most items are under $10. The portions are so big that I usually have enough left over for a second meal. Staff: 5/5 Super friendly lady that works the cash register. She remembers my orders and all the details on how I like them prepared. I noticed that she remember so many other customers' orders as well. She is so fast at what she does. Overall: 5/5 If you want authentic Chinese food and you aren't looking to break your wallet on overpriced food... this is the place to go! Delicious, fast, and affordable!

I've been ordering food here for a few months now. It's always done quickly, fresh and tasty for lunch. We like the salt and pepper tofu, Kung pao and orange chicken.

Great little place. Small mom and pop Cantonese style Chinese food. Food is flavorful, good portions, and very reasonable pricing. I enjoyed all their noodles, both stir fried or soup! The fried rice is wonderfully stirr fried as well. If you enjoy salty fish fried rice, they have that dish and very nicely done. Light yet with a punch where the salty fish isn't overwhelming with the fishy smell. Geat place, flavor, and inexpensive!

They serve delicious lunch-special combo price for the whole day without any penalty at all. You can come in anytime and any hour for the combo specials during opening hours. Currently at $7.50 as of 2021 year, which is getting very-rare and hard to find in Los Angeles county these days. It works 10-times best during dinnertime hours, when all the restaurants around raise up their prices greatly without any specials.

This is my go-to place for lunch whenever I'm nearby and craving Chinese food. I love their beef stew noodles and their fried rice (especially the salty fish with chicken or the salty fish with duck). Sometimes I would get their thousand year old egg porridge when I'm a bit under the weather. Have known this place for more than 8 years and did not know they have a Yelp account till now. The lady who works in the front always know how I like my order to be. It's especially busy during lunch hours but it helps a lot if you give them a call and order at least 15-20 minutes before you arrive there. Give this place a try and you'll find that you have many options to choose from and would definitely find your favorite dishes with them.

I've driven by this place for about a decade and I'll be honest, the name screamed a family owned Panda Express type of food. Plus, the dated exterior didn't raise too much confidence in me. But recently, I drove by and say the owners inside, and I just felt compelled to support their business. I called in for a pick up order. Though they have seats inside, it's currently blocked off for take out only. Lady who helped me was nice. The food was ready on time and was fresh and hot. Salt & pepper tofu. Deep fried with scallions and peppers. Nice crunch on the outside and soft inside. Could have used just a bit more pepper seasoning but not bad. 7.7/10 Fish filet with mixed vegetables: Light in flavor and a decent portion. 7/10 Shrimp fried rice: I asked them to leave out the diced vegetables and lettuce that I was in other's photo. It has a nice wok flavor but slightly heavy on the salt. 8/10 Beef stew lo-mein: Your usual Cantonese dish with tender pieces of beef and bok choy. I expected it to have some gravy but this was served with a sauce. 7.5/10 Overall, the food we ordered were all good, and nothing to complain about. But they also weren't spectacular. Still, I was pleasantly surprised at the flavor based on my judging them from the outside. I would definitely go back and try some other menu items and support this family owned business that's been here for 17 years. If you can overlook a dilapidated exterior, go give them a try. Like me, you may also be pleasantly surprised.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST CHINESE FOOD THAT I'VE TRY I LOVE IT IS 100% DELICIOSO!!!!!!

All I wish for the business to add they are not open to dine in, it was disappointing for us driving back from Riverside to stop there and not able to eat there. When I order food I like to eat it fresh, as I still have to drive home near Eagle Rock, so I was going hungry and ended up somewhere else. Other than that I do love their food.
