This is a tad frustrating, I called up to order after receiving a mail menu. They advertised full menu and explicitly open during the holiday hours.

When I called, they are running a limited menu, no egg foo young, and no combination plates. When I asked about alternative egg dishes I was told to check the website. I explained I’m ordering off the paper menu, but again was referred to the website. They are only accepting whole orders.

I would have been ok with that, had they not advertised the whole menu on a flyer clearly meant for holiday hours.

Ultimately, I did not order, and have yet to try the food.

This is not St. louis fried rice. Maybe new owner. Wings were good but fried rice was terrible.

I’m honestly so disappointed. I had high hopes, but this food was terrible. The rice had zero flavor, and the boneless hot braised chicken wasn’t spicy at all — just bland and boring. For something that’s supposed to be “hot” and “braised,” it tasted like plain soggy chicken. Definitely not worth the money.

I got takeout for the first time, it was decent. Orange chicken had lots of orange peel in it. It wasn’t the “best” I’ve had. The beef dish was good

Bob Moss

Relatively reasonable and consistently good. Chicken, pork and shrimp dishes preferred. We have not had good experiences with beef. Fried rice, lo mein & rice noodles also recommended. Friendly staff

Ordered delivery. First time ordering from here. The food was early, warm and really good. I would especially recommend the Pot Stickers. They had a really good flavor. The sweet and sour chicken was really good. Actually, I had lots of chicken. Prepared just right. This is a location that I will definitely be ordering from again. Give it a try you won't be disappointed.

The Singapore style noodles hasn't been mixed well. Clumps of some bitter seasoning throughout. Otherwise it's good.

This is a decent cheap Chinese food. It’s not bad for the price and potion size. We ordered chicken broccoli combo. Peas in fried rice was still frozen. Chicken was surprisingly tender and tasty. It’s a Chinese fast food. Wasn’t expecting much but overall, decent food.

A friend insisted on us getting lunch to go, as they are a regular. She treated me to veggie fried rice which was hot, but bland, had to use additional sauces to help flavor. The establishment was clean, condiments available for your choosing. HOWEVER, upon entering I spoke a hello to the young fella with glasses behind counter, and he just stared at me blank without uttering a word or a return greeting back. He just waited stoned face until the friend spoke to order. I was going to leave, but my friend said he's just like that.... Nope that's poor customer service and blatant disrespect. I noticed he had done it previously when I took her there. They consistently take our money but disrespect our presence.
I know by me not going back won't hurt their pocket, but best believe I will let it be known to the people I know, not the spend their money in this particular establishment. Nor will I not be back to drop my friend off or purchase anything.

I have never left a review or negative review on a restaurant. Unfortunately I have to here. I've been going to this Chinese fast food restaurant for ..decades. It's been good. It has changed ownership several times, and I don't know who the current owners are. I had Sesame chicken combo plate and the chicken is egregious. I don't know what parts of the chicken I had already eaten, I realized it was just gross especially on further examination. Ligaments and I dunno- not edible. For the first time I'm actually gonna say that I won't be going there anymore. The food with the first owner's was excellent. Too bad.

This place has great sweet and sour chicken and chicken lo mein. The sweet and sour chicken was juicy and also crispy. The lo mein chicken was delicious. Definitely recommend.

Aside from the atmosphere, the food is hot and flavorful and the staff are always helpful. It's a regular for me when I'm in town.

I’ve lived in Clayton all my adult life and had never ordered from this place before. On Easter Sunday, there weren’t many dining options available, so I decided to give it a try and ordered a few items. The Mongolian beef was more like a soup, with an odd greenish tint meat and the meat tasted like it had been microwaved. The noodles were completely flavorless and also seemed to have been microwaved. By the time I drove home and opened the food—about half an hour later—it was still burning hot, which confirmed my suspicion.microwave I was surprised to see the cooks, who appeared to be Mexican, using the microwave for nearly every dish in restaurant . It’s disappointing to see even some Asian restaurants relying so heavily on the microwave. I was genuinely shocked.
