Definitely meant to be a take out kind of place. It was our first time eating here and we dined in. Food was served on paper plates. Cashier had ear buds in and wasn't helpful answering questions about the menu. The food ended up being amazing but I thought it was crazy their substitute pricing for fried rice over white rice with a meal was $5.50.

This place is great! My number 1 place in ames now! This was our first time ordering. So sad it took so long to find this gem, but this little place is the best Chinese food in Ames!

I’ve ordered from this place three days in a row. The owner is so sweet and very good at confirming your order over the phone. The teriyaki chicken is the best I’ve EVER had, and I did not expect to have my teriyaki chicken world changed at 2 pm in my car on a random Saturday but here we are. Everything is very high quality and I would probably still recommend it if the prices were doubled.
The food was great, I stumbled upon this place while exploring dinner options in the area. Being from NYC, I had some expectations which were definitely exceeded! Will definitely return soon!

I've had mostly good experiences in the past. It's a decent option for a reasonable price and convenience. It's mostly a take-out place, with limited seating. It was clean and tidy, with efficient service, but I wouldn't go there for dine-in ambiance.

BEWARE of plastic smell in rotting food! We ordered Chicken Lo-mein and Chicken fried rice and they served it on a plastic plate with plastic fork. I was fine with that. Until, the food literally smelled like rotten food in plastic boxes. Server gave an attitude saying I don’t smell it, I will not refund. Mam, I didn’t even ask for it. But the least you can do is be concerned or considerate when someone eats and says something is wrong with the food you cooked.

We love to get our pepper chicken spicy. They do such a good job! Our son loves the steamed dumplings and lo main. That is high praise from a 4 year old. This is a place where my whole family can get something they love! We’ve never eaten in, we always do take out.Parking: This is in a shopping center but whenever we go the lot is not too busy. Sometimes you have to park down from it but you don’t have to walk far.Kid-friendliness: We do take out but we ask for modifications to our meals so our son will eat it. They always honor them and our order comes out like we ask.

Ordered sesame chicken and bit into a piece only find a splinter of a bone in it. Very average food and unexpected bones .
1st time visit for us. Food was great, General Chicken was spicy, the way it SHOULD be. Service speed could have been a bit better, but they had quite a few take-outs ahead of us. We ate there (at one of the 2 tables) and I had the Phoenix and Dragon, twice the food I could eat, so good deal for $13 for my plate as well as the food my wife and son got. Made great left-overs.

Food was greasy. Cooked at a temperature that the oil wasn’t hot
Went there twice, both times they said the food would be ready about 25-30 minutes on the phone. After I got there in 30 minutes and was told the food wasn’t ready, then had to wait another 25-30 minutes for the food. Please don’t tell me the wrong pickup time because I was late for my meeting, if I had known it would take that long I would’ve cancelled it beforehand.
