A wonderful little Chinese restaurant. The food was the best Chinese I've had in a long time, and the portion fed my family of four.

The food was very fresh, the Eggrolls were crispy! The lo mein was great and the general tsos chicken was good!
They are very reasonably priced, $13 for most specials. I ordered takeout, so I didn't get the restaurant experience.

Went for lunch on a weekday. The menu has a lot of options. I ordered the appetizer platter. It came with several things. The eggroll tasted like a frozen supermarket eggroll. I think it was chicken. Didn't love it. The fried wonton was ok. The fried shrimp was pretty good. The shrimp toast was overcooked, and the bread absorbed too much oil. The chicken stick had a good flavor but was dry. The meat stick was dry with a weak flavor. The crab rangoon was mostly cream cheese. I wouldn't order the plattet again, but I'll try a few entrees to see why so many people recommended RAC.

Vegetarian options: They have a lot of options.

Parking: Paid street parking.

Kid-friendliness: Empty restaurant.

Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had. I've never had spicy Mongolian beef before, usually tastes like green onion not red pepper, and when ordering cashew chicken that's definitely not spicy, when I called I was informed that's how Mongolian beef is and because we ordered 2in1 special that sauce got all over the other dish making them both spicy. My problem is if you know that this is an issue....WHY NOT SAY SOMETHING WHEN I ORDERED! I would have gladly changed my 2nd dish to something that wouldn't be ruined by a lil cross fluid. I didn't call to get anything free, I called to see if they could remake it, the answer was no. Definitely will never eat here again.
