Full disclosure: I have not eaten here.I stopped by to get a menu and do a little recon.If you don't clean your windows and you have tape stuck on the glass from the 80sI don't trust you are a clean place to eat.Take 30 min to really clean the windows so people are willing to walk past the 2nd set of doors.

Look, we've come here for many years, but since around 2020 the portions of meat relative to veggie has been awful. All for supporting small business in the area, but 3rd times the charm. After multiple trips each chicken dish is overwhelmed by vegetables and has a complete lack of protein/meat. Not acceptable. I understand having to adjust prices given recent events, but the amount of meat should reflect that fairly. Pass

Every sauce on every dish was sweeter instead of savory. Egg rolls were spongy. Egg foo young was really spongy. Empress chicken is supposed to be spicy and it was sweet. Beef fried rice had a funky and oily taste. Not good at all. Sizzling 3 delight had two shrimp in it.

We love this place. It’s the only restaurant in town we order Chinese food from. Great customer service, food is delicious, reasonably priced, large portions. The hot and sour soup will heal your soul. The girl who delivers is so sweet, too. We always tip her well!!! You should, too!

I tried this place for lunch today because I was craving eggrolls. I may never crave another eggroll again.I ordered takeout. I did not dine in. From the look of things nobody does. Completely empty. Almost all the awards on the wall are from 2009 to 2013 and that seems to be when this place was given up on. Even the poster in the bar explained people had to be born by this date in 1993 to drink. That's 30 YEARS AGO NOT 21!! This place is so miserable that the one employee working was actually in his car in the parking lot instead of inside the restaurant. I can't saying blame him too much time in there alone and watch out!!The food was just as lifeless as the atmosphere. No flavor and obviously frozen. Why wouldn't it be? The one star is just for the friendly employee. The owner should just call it quits if they don't care anymore. I could have saved $20

The kids loved the sweet and sour chicken. My entree was good as well- not fantastic but good. The restaurant has new carpet but otherwise looks tired. There was a single guy working the take out orders (which was busy for a Monday) and the dining room and he managed quite well, still providing decent service. It is priced perfectly for what you get, in my opinion.

Parking: Located in a big lot. We were able to park almost directly in front.

I’ve ordered from here a few times and the food has been great every time. I usually get the house lo mein but with rice noodles. Excellent every time. The general Tso chicken is just right as well.

Been going to this restaurant for quite some time, to support local businesses other than the big chains. We will not be going back. In the last 6 orders we have some issues on three of them, thought it could have been an off day. Well today ordered Sweet and Sour Chicken along wit Beef with Green Peppers and Tomato. The chicken was far from crunchy, it was so soft and tasteless. The beef had vegetables that were well done close to being on the burnt side. In fairness they offer to get another order, should have been correct the 1st time. I will not be going back and treating good customers like this will not keep them in business very long. There are a lot more Chinese restaurants in the area that will be getting my business going forward.
