I was just not at all impressed, The sweet and sour combination plate was pretty much inedible due to the about of batter and lack of anything in the batter, grease was definitely very old. The fried rice was terrible, can’t describe the taste but could not even swallow it. What a shame.

We used to order from heaven's dragon and had this place instead on Christmas eve. Was super surprised that is was more affordable, portions were bigger and the flavor was better. We will always be ordering from this place from here on out. Wontons are really good and we recommend any of the kung pow spicy or pad Thai dishes.

This place is gross all around. This decor and furniture are very old and ripped. wall paper is peeling. Stacks of dirty dishes sitting at the door to the kitchen. The staff is super rude and they are extremely slow. They have young kid family members sitting in the booths laying down. The carpet is dirty. There was literally no one in there but the stck of dirty dishes is stillsitting there. I can only imagine how the back where they prapre the food looks. The food is very mediocre. Update this place and change your attitudes. Then maybe more ppl will order here. Old Christmas decor falling off the wall when you enter the door. Just all around choice for Chinese food. Go elsewhere.

Last night I was feeling really crappy, so we decided to get some soups to warm up. I ordered 2 large hot and sour soups and an egg drop wonton mix. Very happily surprised to find that you can adjust the spiciness of your soups. Totally delicious 😋
I don't know the lady who took my order but she was really nice and still had our information on their computer. When she said
"Thank you, Kathy" I was so surprised
Even more so when my husband picked up the order and she remembered that we love the hot and sour soup when I have a cold 🥶
It's nice to be remembered!!!
I highly recommend that y'all try Crystal Island!!!

Ordered from Crystal Island for Thanksgiving when original plans fell through. Placed a large order and everything was freshly prepared and very GOOD. They treated us so nicely and really saved our Holiday.
There were lots of people there, and a steady stream of Door Dash orders which proves that their food/service is great.

My go to Chinese place! Haven’t had a bad bite from here, but my favorites are the honey walnut shrimp, general tsos chicken, and happy family. The scallion pancakes are crispy, chewy, just all around great appetizers. The lo mein has lots of veggies and meat, the wonton soup has a nice savory broth. And they do delivery through their own staff instead of third party apps, which is a plus, so it gets house quickly and still piping hot.
Delicious food! Just moved to the area & excited to try more of the menu. Lo mein, orange chicken, general tso's, beef & brocoli, pu pu platter, wonton soup & egg rolls have all been so good!
Planning on drunken noodles & walnut shrimp next 👌

Crystal Island was my go to for Chinese food for many years. I moved out of the area and still never found a place that I like the food better than there. I have since moved back closer but still jaunt. I think I passed 15 Chinese food restaurants to get there and back but worth every mile.

Absolutely wonderful little gem! I appreciate how well the food is cared for in packaging for take-out. I also loved how the restaurant felt clean upon walking win, and the kindness from the staff was welcoming. I in particular found the food to be very well portioned and spicy when asked for that extra kick of heat!
This is a great little spot for a nice bite to eat with reasonable prices compared to other similar places in the area.

I was beyond late to pick up my take-out order due to getting stuck at work, but when I arrived at Crystal Island, my food was still ready and warm, and the staff were very sweet and understanding. Will definitely be returning!
