We love The food at this family run restaurant. The prices are most reasonable! The quality and taste is superb located in Amherst Massachusetts. Please support these hardworking, Delightful people! I heard that their business is struggling due to the decline in foreign students at UMass. Please try them and order some great Chinese food!!

Food tasted really good, but didn't get nearly as much as I expected. 15 bucks after tip and taxes and I got 6 pieces of chicken with some very sparse fried rice

We had an excellent experience at this hole in the wall Chinese Take-out/Dine-in establishment after a long business workday. The owner was super friendly and helpful, and he made several recommendations of authentic Cantonese dishes. Everyone enjoyed the food very much. BYOB was okay as well.

Fantastic. Best restaurant in town by far, with friendly staff, and really authentic Cantonese food for affordable prices. Love it. As someone from Hong Kong, this has become a staple for me.

Nice lady at the cashier, her warm smile made my day. Food is amazing with complex flavors and seasoning. Got the Spicy Kung Pao chicken with vegetable fried rice and spicy chicken wings. *note that the chciken is NOT fried. Which makes it a healthier option for us. Im normally not a fan of non-fried wings but this ones got some flavor and real nice kick to it. Super juicy and tender as well. The sauce for the wings got some nice seafood broth aroma to it with enhanced umami factors. Same goes withbthe kung pap chicken, similar seasoning with bold notes of peanuts and a hint of sweetness to the sauce with, again, a nice kick with that spice. Fried rice is perfect in texture (not mushy) and and the egg really compliments the rice. The veggies have a nice crisp texture as well.

Overall, this place does not use too much sodium and I can't taste so much of the MSG like other competitors so that's definitely a plus + 👍

Very quick service too. 10/10 reccomend!

This will be my spot from now on for sure.

The food is so expensive, yet not good at all. The ribs are so very dry.

As someone from NYC and has traveled extensively in Asia, including China and Taiwan, this is by far the best Chinese restaurant in western mass.
Just order from there. Literally no disappointment.
