I wouldn't call it anything more than average. Not any better than you would get at a fast food Chinese place at twice the price. The portions again, average. Fried rice with no flavor. There's much better options in town.

Unfortunately I don't live nearby, but I will look for excuses to make it out this way to stop here again. The food was great. We ordered the fried rice, walnut shrimp, chicken and mushroom, and Monark Steak and that fed three of us well. All plates were delicioius, but my favorite was the Monark Steak. The meat was so tender and it was very flavorful.The interior of the restaurant was beautiful and had a great ambience. My only regret was that we didn't have more people in our party so we could try more dishes.

Definitely deserves a better rating. Not sure why their ratings are so low. Great, fast and friendly service. Good food. Lunch special included an egg roll that was very good. Clean and quiet. Food comes out quick for those on a lunch break. My wife loves her Kung Pao combo. Definitely best Asian food in the area. They also have some good Thai options.

if i was able to i would give a half star. the crab Rangoon was the only good food here. The service sucked. Came with a group. we were the first customers but was the last to be served. was about an hour before we even got our drinks. They served all the other customers in the booths first that came in after us. asked the manager for drinks and all she said was ask your server. And then began to help/serve other customers. both server and manager were very rude. food not worth the price.

The food was very good and flavorful. Pad Thai, Mushroom Chicken, Sweet & Sour Chicken were all great! Service was great, our server was friendly. I will continue to come here as everything great!

All around just... alright. Definitely not the best most authentic. Location is what you're actually paying for (canyon crest village convenient for errands and a sweet tooth). Service not delivered with the biggest smile or enthusiasm but that's not a deal breaker. Ambiance again is defined by well...convenience. That's all... Don't come for me haha.

I really enjoy coming here for a nice meal. There is never a wait and the food is always delicious. The chicken fried rice and sweet n sour chicken are two of my favorites.

A hidden gem in the Town Center. CameHere with friends and we had a fabulous meal with great service and tasty food! Highly recommend! We had the walnut shrimp, Mongolian beef, mushroom chicken and garlic galore. All were super yummy and plates were generous enough to share. Service was attentive and impeccable!

Just had an inedible lunch at Monark the stir fried vegetables were so salty I could hardly eat and the mushrooms were black not fresh. The service was excellent though and I felt bad to send the food back. Just feels like a waste of money.
