I really wanted to like this place because I love real Mexican and real Chinese food but this place is not either one. The food was not bad but was nothing that I would brag about. It is typical American Chinese with a bit of Mexican influence.

Wonderful customer service. I got Chinese mixed veggies with white sauce and it was awesome. I also tried the fried dumplings the seemed to be handmade and were delicious! I also tried an empanada with potato inside perfectly cooked. Highly recommend this mom and pop place!

A new mom-and-pop restaurant in Meadowthorpe. Chinese +Latino food= The Chatino Buffet. You can order the standard American style Chinese food a la carte or you can get it off the buffet. What makes this place special is that they also serve Mexican food! I had late night steak tacos with Jarritos, which was really good. I requested cheese, cilantro, and onion toppings, then doused it with their red hot taco sauce and squeezed lime on top.Can't make up your mind between Chinese food and tacos? Get both! Drink horchata with some steak and broccoli. That's what I did last week. Support local!

Let me start with the fact we are Chinese food snobs. We like it authentic and have a high bar set for flavor. This seems like your run of the mill fast food chinese. Better than panda express and some other places in town. I would say the best in this north side area we have tried. The people seem nice and I applaud the hustle. We had generals, orange, sesame, kung pao and chicken with black bean sauce. And hot and sour soup. It all seems out of a bottle or premade sauce...the soup was ok but not great, the egg roll and rangoon were pretty good. Over all if you have the typical american palate and you enjoy places like panda express then you will like it. You get a lot for the 8.50 combo. If you want great.. szechuan go to Panda Cuisine. Good strip mall chinese Joy food towards Nicholasville, good sushi Happy sushi.

We visited the restaurant for dinner, An was pleased. They are a Chinese restaurant with a couple of Mexican dishes. The wife and I both enjoyed our meals, they have all the standard Chinese dishes. There are some Mexican items also that sounded good. The owner and daughter (server) was very pleasant, he puts great effort in the kitchen and the quality of his dishes. We are going back soon. The location is next to Jimmy Johns, very convenient. It's about a mile off of New Circle.
