I finally got to try the place. Lots of ready food to choose from. I ordered the three items combo to try. Reasonably priced and big portion. Loved the fried noodle and char-siu.

I've been here a few times and its a very solid Chinese fast food spot in El Monte! The food is good and the pricing is decent. The food has good flavor and isn't too bland like some fast food locations. The noodles are perfectly cooked and not too oily. The service is decent. The lady isn't as friendly and welcoming but its mainly the food that matters. Overall its a good spot to go if you are craving some Chinese food and you are in the area! I always get the Noodles + Beef & broccoli + a random dish!

Ordered a large tray of spicy fried chicken and another tray of chow mein for a church potluck lunch. Everyone liked the seasoned chicken, its juices retained on the inside. As for the chow mein, that quickly disappeared. These two items will definitely be included in any of my future orders. Plus it's hard to find a better price for these heaping trays of food anywhere!

This store is the definition of hole in the wall. It's a hidden gem in plain sight ran by a lovely Mom and Pop just trying to serve their delicious food to whoever shows up. The prices are well worth it and the portions are insane! Needing a rubber band to close the takeout box just shows how much they care and want to feed their customers. If I found this place sooner I would have been coming here at least three times a week! 10/10

Food tasted kind of old. I went in the middle of the day though maybe that's why. I was just looking for a bite to eat though I wasn't seeking to be wowed. The attendant was very nice and helpful. I didn't get any pictures because I wasn't planning to review.
large portions for around 11.50, food was decent and fresh. only complaint i have is that i seen the woman behind the counter put back an orange chicken piece that was dropped back inside the tray

Food taste old, doesn't come with ingredients on photos. Bad attitude when I tried canceling the order I didn't want due to them not having all the proper ingredients shown on food menu display. No bathroom? By law you should have a bathroom both for handicap and non. Place is dirty walls need a deep cleaning. Not a friendly place.

For Chinese fast food, it was what I expected with a nod for the hot and sour soup, which is the only fresh made item I ordered. I did expect more based on some reviews and really wanted to try the spicy fried chicken and bbq pork. They were out of the bbq pork, but had the fried chicken, so went ahead with my order anyway. Also tried the pork ribs with black bean sauce and orange chicken. All three items were ok to good for steam table food, just not great. The fried rice and chow mein also tasted like it’s been there a while. The nice lady suggested I come before lunch for the bbq pork, which I’ll have to try. I’m guessing the other items will taste fresher too and will update my review.
