I'm sad they don't deliver anymore (except thru GrubHub), but the Wifey and I order regularly from here. Good food, quick, and inexpensive. We love the Buddhist Delight (vegetarian option)!
April 2022
Food was really good. Order and payment was taken by a precocious elementary age girl, serving alongside her parents who were cooking up a storm in the back. We had sweet and sour chicken and cashew chicken. Generous portions.
February 2020
Mostly a take-out place. No hot tea! Only bottled Coke products. Had hot & spicy chicken & soup. For my taste, I didn't care for the sauce on my chicken & veggies. Didn't care for the soup, either.
