One of my favorite places to order chinese food. The service is great, its never too crowded whenever I dine in and my food is always hot whenever I order take out. Overall 5/5 great place to eat.

Something to be said for doing the traditional dishes well above average. Hot and sour soup tangy and full of veggies. Sesame and teriyaki chicken top notch. Beef and broccoli and pork fried rice all you could ask for. Portions are ample, and service consistently cordial. Plenty of parking. Plenty of options. Just what a good neighborhood Chinese restaurant should provide. And leftovers for seconds, maybe even thirds

Mom and Pop Chinese Food Restaurant with some Thai offerings. Ordered Egg Drop Soup and Scallion Pancakes to start. Both were delicious. Mains were General Tao's Chicken and General Tao's Shrimp. Unfortunately, we were brought one wrong entrée, but when alerted, correction was made quickly. The General Tao's Shrimp was amazing, definitely will return for this.

This is one of my favorite Chinese spots. There is seating inside and when I’ve been there for lunch specials food always comes out perfectly hot! There’s not a lot of people who dine in. Again, mostly a carry out place.

It’s always busy and when we order take out it’s usually 35-45 min wait, which is fine because we have planned to call earlier.

Ive been dining at this restaurant since at least 2008. Really enjoy the general tso bean curd, egg drop soup, orange chicken, chicken and broccoli, and egg rolls!

I asked if General Tso Chicken could be made with no breading. She said sure. It was delicious! We also had Chicken and Broccoli and Chicken LoMein. The sweet and Sour soup was also exceptional. Everything tasted great! It was takeout. So we don't know about table service.

Food was alright and not wow factor for a Chinese place. It's the average Chinese restaurant.

Best squid I've ever had. Puts Italian restaurant calamari to shame.We had a group of 12 and were treated like royalty.

Good food. Fast service. Eating in occasionally is fun and fast. Love the ambience and neighborhood drop in feeling. Tempura appetizer is great!

The staff is always friendly and food is great. I love the broth from the wonton soup and will order it any time I'm close by.

Great improvement recently. Tried this place after avoiding it for a long time and totally different. It's now my wife's favorite place and she especially loves their soups. The folks that run it are super nice and I'm pretty sure the more my wife shows up and chats the more generous they are with portions. I really like the local, family, non-chain vibe of the place.

This is my favorite place for Chinese food when I'm in Gaithersburg. I usually order peppersteak. I thought it was a little pricey but I always get two meals out of one order. The beef is very tender. The service is excellent.

I’ve visited this location for the first time. Service was good. Pretty busy when we entered on a Sunday evening around 6:00pm. I placed an order for their young chou fried rice, their orange chicken and three chicken wings. The rice did not look fried at all. It looked like white steamed rice with mixtures of egg and meats . The orange chicken was ok but not the best. The fired chicken was very disappointing. It didn’t taste good at all. It didn’t have no salt or flavor to it. I’m not so sure how you can go wrong with wings but this place definitely deserves a negative review. Their prices are a little more expensive than other restaurants in the area and they do not have the food to back it up. I would never return back to this place or recommend it .
