The restaurant is tiny. But being from NY you know that those little ones are always the better ones! And you don’t go here to eat. You go here to take the eats with you. If you are looking for some great Chinese Cuisine, your tastebuds will be very satisfied. Try their house made mustard and plum sauce (moo shoo sauce). Try their bbq pork fried rice and definitely the egg rolls (warchbout if you have a peanut allergy)

I wanted to like the food more, I really did
But it was bland and was not worth the price, even for a lunch special
The vegetables were oily and watery and the noodle dish I got had almost no flavor. It’s my standard order at new Chinese restaurants I try and this was the worst I’ve had
I really wanted it to be better but honestly the food wasn’t...
