I feel like we walked into a different world where grandma makes amazing home cooked food. The egg rolls were the best I've ever had, and the lavender milk tea was absolutely amazing!! Now my favorite Chinese place!!!

Lace was a dump
The food kind of good but portions for the money

Driven by so many times. Daughter wanted crab Rangoon so we picked here and wow!

Food was so good! I got veggie lo mein and gen tsos - both much better than your normal Chinese take out place! AND some of our order was delivered by a ROBOT!

We've seen that in travel videos from Japan, we were both stunned! So cool!

I used to come here all the time, but here recently the older man has been extremely rude. Food quality has gone down a bit too, very sad but I don't think I'll be back. ):

Boba without ice: Ration wrong so over diluted and not sweet. Boba was soggy.
Beef fried rice: Overcooked and soggy rice, overcooked eggs. Beef has nice flavor.
Fried tofu: Pieces too big, middle soggy. Sauce is a bbq.
Crab Rangoon: ok
Egg rolls: Taste of wasabi inside, couldn’t stomach it.

Used to love this place.
Came in (2 tables were seated in the restaurant) and waited 15 mins up front to be seated while the owner and the wife walked past me and didn’t seat me so I left.

Can’t believe I’m just now trying this place, I’ve heard good things about it for years. Well I’ve been missing out! I got the general Tso’s chicken flaming tray. Came with rice, soup and an egg roll. The general tso chicken was by far the best I’ve ever tried. The fried rice was great. The Egg roll was good, maybe could’ve used more filling. The egg drop soup was amazing. The sweet tea was magnificent. I only wish the portions were bigger on the general tso chicken.
The atmosphere was incredible. Our waitress was very friendly and the other guy who was helping (wish I remembered his name) just made the experience. He was hilarious, he talked about the robot and I thought he was joking, then boom they have a robot that delivers the food to your table. Can’t wait to go back to this diner, it was amazing!

Kid-friendliness: Accommodated my 1 year old and / year old with no problems.

Great food and a super friendly wait staff make the Onion a pleasure to visit. Plus, the robot that assists the wait staff is a very cool bonus attraction!

Brought me something I didn't order. Then demanded I pay for what I did order that I wasn't even brought. (This is 100% illegal) Threatening to called the cops. Terrible experience.

Crab Rangoon is good.

They close at 10pm I walked in the door at 915pm after driving 25 minutes to get there only to be told the kitchen is being cleaned did I want to order takeout? Meanwhile there is a dining room full of people eating and just a thought but doesn't the kitchen prepare the the takeout food? The same kitchen that was being cleaned?

The atmosphere was very awkward and the lights went out until more people arrived for dinner. Very unprofessional eating environment. The food was not bad, it just felt like I was eating in someone else's kitchen rather than a cafe or restaurant.
