It’s been over a year since I’ve visited this place. But I wanted some teriyaki chicken. I must say the soup was really good. The teriyaki chicken with vegetables and white rice with freshly made and very warm and tasty. But the star of the shell was the wonton soup. They had a very good broth flavor. It was very tasty. Even my eggroll was very warm and fresh and taste good. Overall, the food was very good and I definitely would recommend trying. It’s a place ran by a couple...

The basil chicken was excellent and all fresh. I ordered my meal spicy and the lady brought me extra chili oil which was of great quality. The dining area was very clean and has a pleasant retro look and the owners are so personable and kind.

I love this place. This is old-style home-cooked Chinese at super great prices with lots of flavor that doesn't feel heavy.
It's like stepping into your grandmother's (OLD) house. The menu is very diverse and you'll find something for everyone.
The service can be slow, but, they don't have a lot of people working there; but, everyone who does work there is super friendly. Even the robot!
