Great food and service!
We made a reservation for 4 and waited for them to clear a table. Waited 15 minutes for them to take drink order. Once we finally got to place our food order. We waited 50 minutes for our food to start to be delivered, half came out with the excuse that they were waiting for clean dishes. All this time we counted 30 to go orders go out the door. We had to flag down someone to replenish our drinks. Total time was 2 hrs. This is unacceptable. Poor service and the food was just ok.
They are very personable. It's a very cozy feeling coming here to eat dinner.

The service was good and the atmosphere was nice but when it came to the food it was nasty. I order fried rice which was bland with no flavor at all. The pork buns was nasty and the fried wontons was tasteless. I will never eat at this place again. I have the food to my dog and went and brought something else to eat.

First time customers and we ordered two dinners to-go: chicken and broccoli and orange chicken. Both could have been better. The broccoli was over cooked and soggy; the chicken tasted/felt a little slimy. Orange chicken had good flavor. We’ll give JW Chen another try.

The closest to I can get to the food from Chinese cosine food. Even though the buns are smaller and they only have one kind is better than not having no buns. As go to Asia a lot this is great great place to eat though. I highly recommend. But if you want to experience Asian cuisine I highly recommend you to go to Asia, especially to the smallest town because that’s where they keep The best flavor of culture and please if you ever thinking of traveling through another country, China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, at least learn a bit of their language as a respect, especially to respect their elders.

This restaurant has become a regular stop for me! I came here after looking at the reviews a few months ago and every dish that I order has me craving to come back! The owners are very nice and will explain each of the dishes so you know exactly what to get! Everything always tastes fresh and delicious. Portion sizes are very good as well.
Pictured are: Mala Chicken, Black Pepper Chicken/Lo Mein, Crispy Chicken, Garlic Chicken, and Dry Chili Chicken.
I am slowly making my way through the menu and haven’t been disappointed yet!

The food is good, and the staff and setting are incredible.
I ordered two veggie spring rolls and the brisket curry beef rice bowl. The spring rolls arrived quickly, and were great. Hot but edible quickly, and the sauce was not too sweet nor too salty. The main dish was pretty good, though sadly the textures were a bit much for my palate. Potato was a little hard though.
As for the dining experience: the noise volume was good, temperature was right, the staff were friendly and helpful. Good experience.

Very poor service, food didn’t taste fresh at all. All gravy taste same very basic! Waitress was rude and didn’t give us extra plate even after asking many times. When we asked for extra cutlery/spoons she was counting how many we have n deciding if she is gng to give us more. They didn’t give the white rice with curry , we had to ask for it. Never coming back!

I’m pretty sure this place sold out, were ther today food was ok but not like it was a year ago. Did not have lettuce wraps ( the best I have ever had) the pot stickers from Costco. Egg rolls not home made. Even the iced tea was from a bottle. Really disappointed one of the best Asian restaurants around And they have commercialized it
All the dishes that we ordered were delicious!? we had orange chicken, pork ribs ramen and shrimp fried rice, super good!? finally, we found an authentic Chinese restaurant? and they have super friendly customer service too?
