Big portions for good prices. I got the #2 entree special with thin chow mein/honey sesame chicken/sweet and sour pork and an egg roll on the side. It's not going to blow your mind but it's tasty and filling. Fast service.

My daughter and I ended getting diarreah ? the chili was not spicy at all, it was more oil. The fish and greens was extra for some reason and the lemonade didnt taste as the usual lemonade we get from the fountain drinks so Im not sure what made us sick.
The lady serving us needs to smile more often, she looked pissed off the whole time and just kept staring at us.
Good crispy noodle for a quick lunch

I got a plate with 3 entrees and none of them tasted good! The chow mein was sooo salty and disgusting and the meat was a weird texture and flavor. I love chinese food and small businesses, but this place is not it! The food made us feel sick. i hope this place gets replaced with a panda express. My total was $15 and it was not worth $5

THIS PLACE!!! I went there with my cousin and the food was descent the first time...I went back again and got the 3 item dinner for $13.The pork was dried and burnt! The rest of the Items were tasteless...They are closed over the week-end. I think they saved the food over that period. It wasn't ready for prime time! BUT THATS NOT THE WORST PART! FOR THE $13 DOLLAR BURNT MEAL, I PAID WITH MY CARD.BIG MISTAKE! WHEN I REVIEWED MY STATEMENT THE GUY CHARGED ME $30 DOLLARS!!! HE DIDNT GIVE A RECEIPT AND PRETTY MUCH STOLED MY MONEY!! I COULDNT BELIEVE IT! SO, IF YOU WANT TO ROLL THE DICE AND GO THERE, ONLY USE CASH!!! NO! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE...

The food is decent. I just wish they would upgrade the containers that they are serving the food in. They're serving hot food in these very thin containers that look like they should not be used for hot food. I stopped going to this place because I don't want plastic melting into my food. You can taste how serving the food in these thin plastic containers change the taste of the food. Serving hot food in the thin plastic containers should not be legal as it is very hazardous to the consumer. You would think that this is common sense but some companies are more concerned with saving money than they are about protecting the health of the consumer. Buyers beware...

I ordered and my bill was $8.75. I gave my$50.00 bill to the cashier. She gave me mychange without thinking about it, gave a dollar tip and headed to the table.. After a few seconds, I realized my .change was $40.00 short . I approached the cashier and she said: I only gave $10.00. She insistedfour times. Only after I demanded to seethe camera then the cashier gave me my $40.00 back I'm a 71 year old man and I know it was my fault not being aware aboutmy change. This happened on Saturday, Oct 21, 2023 between 3:35pm to 3:45pm. Watcht out specially to seniors.

Food is tasty ?
Had the sweet and sour pork which is my go to at most authentic Chinese restaurants. It was just ok, not great…very heavy with the sauce and seems like the meat and peppers and pineapple had just been soaking in the sauce for way to long. The fried rice was just ok as well. Lots of overcooked egg pieces were in the rice…some were black with grease from the griddle. The restaurants did have a lot of choices and lots were prepared to choose from. My work colleague had the orange chicken, fried rice and chow mein. She also said hers was just ok as well. Portion sizes were pretty large, but that does not mean much if the food is just meh.
Love their chow fun and other noodle dishes.
