Best Chinese in Nixa, I've eaten here about 10 times 8 times edible and when it's fresh it's great as long as it's cooked fully. The guy in the window has short changed me twice so I'll eat that 4% upcharge. Costed me $7 and some change but you learn eventually. I'm not the type of person to point it out but that 5 dollar hit hurt especially when I was running low on cash and decided to splurge and got overcharged.

We get take out from here, and have for years.Please be and have patience when waiting for food in the take out line, they can only do so much at a time, as they are running their business with just the two of them, and one cook.Their food as always been delicious ??

Awesome food, my family and I love to eat here. But the drive thru service we are always rushed. You had better know exactly what you want or gonna get. You have to be fast with it, and if you pause for 1 second, the order is complete, and they walk away from taking your order. Other than that again awesome place.

I almost don't want to post a review about this little quiet spot in Nixa only bc I'm selfish & want to keep this place to ourselves. With the hundreds upon thousands of Chinese food options, this one is our go-to spot - they have a buffet with lots of options, the food has been consistently fresh, hot & delicious!My favorites are the BBQ chicken, lo mein noodles & hot & sour soup. The BBQ chicken is like the traditional Chinese BBQ-style that's red in color with some 5-spice seasoning. The lo mein noodles aren't greasy, has a nice flavor & enough veggies in it to give a nice crunch. The hot & sour soup in my opinion is the best hands down - it isn't a thick, gloppy jello-ish mess like it is at some other places - the broth is nice & flavorful with lots of egg, tofu, bamboo shoots & mushrooms. It's also made with some chili sauce instead of overpowering white pepper so get a nice punch of heat.The prices are very affordable & you get your money's worth for sure. You won't regret trying it & if you don't go back, that's fine - more for me lol!They also have lots of other options on the buffet like cashew chicken, sweet & sour chicken, general chicken, beef & broccoli, crab rangoons, egg rolls, etc. The family enjoyed the chicken on a stick, chicken wings & egg rolls.The restaurant is run by a very nice couple. You won't get doting, smothering customer service but they're still attentive to customers' needs & have always been nice to us.

I am very critical and will judge a place based on their cashew chicken. This is the best cashew chicken around. Hands down.

I have ordered food here multiple times. I have a chuld who has a mild allergy to onions. I ordered 2 chicken fried rice with no onions and wanted crab ragoon instead of wontons. I get home and my girlfriend notices onions in the food luckily before my child can eat them. There were also wontons instead of tye crab ragoon. I called to get a refund or new food and all they would say is I give you one new order or refund 1 not both. Both orders were wrong. I've never had an issue but this was to much.

Went there for lunch, watched them rotate food from one buffet tray to another right off of the buffet. Really gross. The only thing that was fresh was the crab Rangoon.Even the soda tasted like they haven’t clean the machine in months.

Excellent food. Great prices. The best buffet I've eaten at in a long time. Get there about once every 3 months and they always remember me.

We went here for lunch buffet and the food was old, the atmosphere was not clean, and the food contains MSG which gave me a terrible migraine. Well not go
