Customer service okay. Clean. Possible to dine in. Parking can be limited. Asian style food. Other options available. Delivery services must go inside to pickup. They do take a picture of your phone of the customer order so be prepared to show your phone.

I was so excited to find out about this place! I am from Saint Louis, Missouri and this is how we make our style of Chinese food (which we are very particular about). Therefore, I was elated to know I can get a taste of home here in Georgia ! If I could I could give it more stars I would. Please keep up the good work. Food is delicious and service was great! Thanks so much !

The food was so bad I was offended & felt violated, like the cook needs to be arrested & charged with food tampering. Straight up playing in our FACES! 🙎🏾♀️🙎🏾♂️#UNITE 🇺🇸

Not good, yuck!! I should have known when I visited at lunchtime and the place was empty and I did not hear any cooking noise from the back from called in orders. Only people I saw was the cashier and a toddler looking at a tablet. Ordered the shrimp lo mein lunch special and asked to get pork fried rice. Was told there would be extra charge. I got the egg roll also. The total for that was over $12 bucks!! Got my food at it was the smallest lunch portion I ever seen. The rice was dark brown and very greasy. It had a weird taste. The shrimp were tiny and they use noodles that are very thick…I mean really really thick! It tasted bland. The egg roll was very skinny and not tasty. I didn’t eat none of this and just threw away. Didn’t want to risk getting sick before the Super Bowl. Total waste of $12 bucks.
Unsure what these previous reviewers were eating because this spot isn’t it. Won’t be returning

This is one of my favorite Chinese stores. There food reminds me of the Chinese stores back on NJ. Everything that I have ever ordered has tasted fresh, cook well and was very tasty. I do delivery thru Uber Eats and I have picked up my orders as well. They have good customer service. They even call you when you order thru Uber Eats to get a full explanation of what you want if your order has special instructions.
Parking: There are a limited number of spots but you can use parking for the store that's in the same area.

Fresh, Delicious and the new favorite family GO TO for Chinese take out! This was Hot and So delicious. I tried a few places for EggFuYoung and this was the best in GWINNETT COUNTY! Even the Gravy consistency was on point. The eggrolls and sugar donuts are the kids favorites!
For Delivery they had all the condiments, forks and the food was piping hot!!

Omg! As a St. Louis native, I have never had Chinese food here that reminded me of home like this. Amazing 😊

This review is based off the dynamic being similar to St. Louis since that’s their niche. Let’s start here, the rice is very oily and greasy. It lacks the salty taste that St. Louis rice provides. Whatever TASTE 8 is cooking their rice in, STL is cooking theirs in something different. So when you eat here, check your box at the bottom. There will be an inedible oil and grease puddle 🤝 The crab rangoon is not like STL. It’s cool, but It’s out of town crab rangoon for sure 100%. The greatest part of what I ordered was the St. Paul, it was like 90% correct just needed to be fried just a tad bit harder. Ultimately I give them a A for effort, 3 stars overall for the outcome and getting close to STL style rice. Best of luck to them, if they read the reviews I have faith they will improve. Will I eat here again, ever so often, if I’m in the area. 💯

Been going here for a while now and at first the food was amazing had the ST. Louis taste. But as of recently the rice has been unedible. Idk what happened but the rice now has this nasty burnt metallic taste. I believe their Wok has gone bad and is now getting the burnt taste of the metal into the food. It will be a few months before I come back and give this place a try. Dear owner if you happen to read this comment please look into the wok situation the food taste burnt and like metal.

As a Saint Louis native I was disappointed. I ordered beef fried ride with beansprouts(extra cost). My food was hot and cooked well,but lacked flavor(no flavor at all). The beef portions were so large it was difficult to eat. The beef portions should be cut into smaller pieces. Seemed like they only used dark soy sauce(smokey taste). They were also out of Vess sodas. The effort to be St Louis style was good but it needs improvement.
