We were hoping this would be mediocre. Not much flavor. But, cheap and quick.

This restaurant has been in this same location for over 40 years. The owners are so wonderful, they treat me like family whenever I come in. They are always happy and welcoming. The food is always delicious and made to order, and I am always amazed by the low prices. It costs about the same as a combo for 2 at McDonald's. #family #delicious #lowprices #hiddengem ??

When I got there the old lady that greeted me didn’t speak much was very delighted to see my husband and I, she was nice. The man (the cook) was very kind, but the waitress (the woman behind the counter) she was rude. Everything was a “NO,” I asked for chopsticks and waited 5-6 minutes. They didn’t want to give me a dine in lunch combo because they thought my husband was going to eat off my plate. The meal came with soup and they told us we couldn’t have any. I ended up ordering to go, when I got my food I was wondering why it was light normally Chinese food to go especially lunch combos are heavy. Well I ordered, lunch combo #5. It comes with chicken chow mein, pork fried rice (I had to beg to sub for chicken), prawns, and wontons. When I got home to open my box of food, the rice and noodles barely had any chicken in it and I had one prawn! Just absolutely crazy. Normally I would at least get three for that price of a lunch combo. What kind of establishment are you people running? If I could give them zero stars I would, they probably were really good back in the days, but their service sucks and they’re skimpy with their food.

I ordered the sweet-and-sour pork lunch combo. The rice was good, but it only came with four pieces of pork wrenched in sweet-and-sour sauce, and the eggroll that comes with it was fried in tempura. The eggroll and rice was good. When I tried the sweet-and-sour pork it tasted really old.

This place is a hidden gem. The food was so so so good. We ordered honey walnut prawns, mandarin sweet and spicy chicken, and mixed vegetables. The honey walnut prawns were perfectly lightly fried and the sauce was excellent. So often other places bread the prawns so thickly which is a mistake. The sauce for the chicken was so well balanced, spicy, tart and just a tad sweet. The mixed vegetables were also perfectly flavored and cooked.

Love the food, great flavors, it's hard to explain except to say you can taste the Wok. Great people, the location parking wise is a challenge but inside its reminiscent of a 40's-50's local coffee shop/Cafe, with imagination you can almost see and hear the locals discussing events with coffee at the counter.It is a must try if you love great Chinese food.

I went in and got sweet sour dinner for 2 the appetizers were good but with the main course the chow mein was almost all bean sprouts and their was only enough sweet and sour for me and my partner to only have exactly 4 pieces. This place was so skimpy with their food… nice service though and it was dead hot in their and nobody else came in either
