Guy in the front with the huge bulging eyes is so rude and disrespectful he talks to customers like they’re stupid instead of being informative. His attitude was so horrible I thought I was at McDonald’s. Also they don’t wash their hands before handling your food.

My daughter and I and I stopped by here on Sunday and ordered the shrimp fried rice and chicken wings. I was upset because they burned the chicken, and it looked like it was refried . Please do better, and if you go, ask for freshly fried chicken.

They have the most horrible customer service skills imaginable. I have gone there for years and have noticed rude comments here and there, but ignored them because I didn't try to worry about it. They cause trouble about asking for plastic silverware when picking up a take out dish, and I was asked "aren't you going home to eat this?" Also beware if you're past the ten minutes, because I thought my husband picked up the order, and he didn't, so I was called three to four times, and text messaged three times about the order being ready, borderline harassment, which was really odd, and I went to pick up the order, all within business hours, and was verbally abused to no end about it. They put up the hugest fuss if you're coming in after 10 minutes to pick up YOUR order when driving time from a house to their restaurant can take anywhere from 15-20 minutes not to mention traffic, and they have the audacity to make you feel like the worst person in the world for paying for their food when it sits there for longer than 10 minutes. It's ridiculous, if I order and arrive while the business is still open I don't see what the problem is, but they definitely have a problem with it and don't mind giving you immense grief about it. I still paid but I won't be returning to their business given that they think its okay to treat their regular customers that way.

Wonton soup is flavorless. Beef teriyaki on a stick was extremely small portion sizes compared to what I normally get else where. Egg roll appears freshly made and not frozen so they get a point for that. I've definitely had better and probably won't be back. I'm simply never impressed when they serve yellow rice with Chinese food, thats always your first sign its your typical run of the mill not so great Chinese food.

This place has been a family favorite since we moved here 14 years ago. The Special Combos are a great end of day grab, and the Wonton Soup is my personal favorite for when I'm sick.

This place was delicious and the staff was extremely nice. Food was prompt and delicious. My fortune cookies were extremely promising. If everything goes according to plan I’ll be posting an update. This could be big … stay tuned.

Food was sub-par. Boneless ribs were chewy, tough, and gristly. Prices were higher than those posted online. I won’t return.

The guy is rude and gave me trouble just for wanting a paper plate! I ordered one combination platter and he insisted I cannot have one because it’s a small order and can only be eaten by one person. What do you mean!?! It don’t matter what I do with the food.. I bought it. Also the food has lost quality over time.

My favorite place to get Chinese food on my way to work!

Would be a 5 but they have been skimping on the meat in their dishes for several months now. Go to China Star instead.
