Ordered Gung Bo Chicken over the phone. Asked for no rice and no peanuts, as we have family with allergies. Brought it back home and there was peanuts, which we spent a lot of time picking out.

This is not your average Chinese food. I come here for karaoke and similar events, and I’m always excited to get food while I’m there too. They have the best crab Rangoon I’ve ever tasted. Their drinks are not watered down like most places. The food tastes and looks fresh and like a higher-quality version of Chinese takeout. They also allow my friend to host his fundraising event there every year and offer drink specials for the occasion, so they clearly care too. Bartenders...
