First time here, for takeout. Staff was friendly and the food was the best Chinese food I have had since covid. It seems most restaurants have lowered their quality, but not this one.

I found this place today and it’s seriously some of the best Chinese food I’ve had outside of China! I ordered the pork mushu lunch for $11.95 and it’s delicious. The portion size is large, the ingredients are very fresh, and the seasoning is perfect. The pancakes are prepared just right and there are two egg rolls with rice also included. The owner was so sweet and greeted me with genuine interest. I can’t wait to go back! It’s really fantastic!
