I haven't had Hunan Beef in quite some time and this really hit the spot. It was a perfect balance of beef and vegetables. The spice was perfect enough for the that's spicy reaction.

My most highly ordered dish is vegan Thai curry fried rice + Add fried tofu. It tastes good. But the only drawback is that I can't rely on consistency. Sometimes they add all stir fry vegetables.sometimes just peas n carrot. Sometimes rice is sticky. Other times it's really nice n fluffy. Sometimes tofu is really deep fried.Sometimes it is just sauteed.Pls maintain consistency.

My family and I only order food from this Asian restaurant for many years. The other night I ordered the wrong noodle dinner and the owner had no problem accommodating my dinner! I ordered thai noodles when I really wanted lo mein. He got me what I really wanted with no questioned asked. Fantastic food and owners. They care about their customers. The best in the area.
