First time ordering from here and was for delivery. I ordered fried Szechuan tofu and egg drop soup. Both were incredibly good. A note to some - when eating out I expect it will have more sodium than I use at home and for a Chinese restaurant that’s Dine-in service I didn’t have expectations of fancy take-out packaging just like all others don’t have of a similar type. I’m prepared to plate it when arrives - careful while handling it as needed. That said, the soup container was very solid. However, I’ve ordered a similar meal in other places and this is the best and even slightly customizable, unlike some others. So, of course, I added my favorite - broccoli- to it (other options there but I only cared for the vegetarian stuff for that order). I hope I can make it down there in person sometime.

I went to lunch with 6 other women on Wednesday. Nice clean place, with good service - However the food was terrible. Seven different meals - and every one looked exactly the same! Tasted the same - and not very good. The rice was good, though.

The food portion was small. Ordered broccoli beef and broccoli chicken, which were too salty with too much dark sauce. But the waiters' service was prompt with good attitude. The place was also tidy and clean, creating a comfortable environment for small group gatherings.

American Chinese food but taste is good. Most of food I ordered was stir fried so a bit oily. Atmosphere and service was good too. Actually what I liked the most was Chinese tea. This was

I ordered takeout, so I am eating based on takeout. The veggies were okay but the food presentation was very messy. We had sauce all over the bag by the time we got home. Wasn't packed very well. As for the meal, the bean curd and vegetables was pretty tasteless, vegetables were overcooked and cold. My husband ordered the sesame beef and didn't like it at all. There wasn't a lot of meat. The veggie springs rolls were cold and soggy (looked like they had soy sauce inside them already)? Probably won't order the takeout here again.

I ordered lemon chicken, egg drop soup, BBQ pork fried rice, and house chow mein. Very good food. Will definitely return.

My friends and I got the chef's special dinner; for one price they chose dishes and brought us soup, appetizers, tea, and multiple main dishes. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. The dining room has lovely ambiance. Service was great. I will go again.

Came for lunch with a friend. Establishment is very clean and services. Very nice. The food came very quickly and was fresh and hot. We started with hot and sour soup, loaded with tofu and vegetables however, the soup was on the salty side. We ordered the salt and pepper pork chops and ended up with an order of pork chunks that were heavily breaded with a thick coating. I had the bok choy chicken, which was flavorful and plenty full. My friend ordered the almond chicken with fried rice and chow mein. The fried rice was good. How are the chow mein was on the bland side mostly just noodles.

It's a classic American Chinese place and gets the job done. Favorites are Mongolian Beef and the Hot and Sour Soup. This is the menu as of February 2024.

So all meats and sauces were separate. It was just fried chicken with sauces, no veggies. I ordered orange beef and got chicken, and the orange sauce tasted like cough syrup. My sweet and sour chicken was just chicken with a side of pink sauce. The rice side was not fully cooked and hard in the middle. Will not go back :(

Awesome. Finally after many years driving by this restaurant we went in for dinner on New Year’s Eve. What a pleasant surprise how good the food and service is. Overall very impressed. Hot & Sour Soup, house chow mein & house fried rice, happy family special all highly enjoyable. Apparently they do a lot of take out business. I’m glad we dined in. Will return soon.
