Underwhelming in every way. My first visit, I had my go-to fave of General Tso's. Little to no heat, a sweet and sour tang and small portion size (about half as much as my hometown Chinese restaurant. I paid 2.50 extra for vegetable fried rice. The vegetables were extremely well hidden. Overall, 3 of 5 stars, it was okay, but just okay enough to eat. I will look elsewhere next time.

My husband and I recently decided to give them a try as a "take out" food, and here are our reviews: Sorry, but the Crab Rangoons were extremely watery, and we could NOT taste ANY crab meat at all! And the Egg Rolls were NOT good either, they had zero taste! We were extremely disappointed in both of these two appetizers and WE WILL NEVER ORDER them again!!!
Now the Roast Pork LoMein was absolutely DEEEELICIOUS, and it was a very flavorful dish. We thoroughly enjoyed it very much. We will return and place a "take-out order" only for this delicious Roast Pork LoMein dish, and we thank you very much for such a flavorful dish.
Ordered takeout this evening which consisted of crab ragoons, wonton soup, general Tso's chicken, and curry beef. Appetizer and soup were great! The fried rice was very onion flavored but what ruined the meal was the curry beef. Overall it had decent flavor and spice, but the small size had so many onions in it the dish was virtually inedible. The picture shows the amount of meat and other veggies contained next to the onions on a 10" dinner plate for reference. Disappointed for a $10 dish to have only onions with a few pieces of meat and carrots. For our first experience at this location I don't know that we'll be back.

This is our go to spot when we are in the area. The food tastes excellent. Customer service cannot be beat. I have picked up food here probably 10 times in the past 2 years, and the service never fails. And the food is always good!

Excellent! I've been looking for a place to get sesame chicken since the covid pandemic that isn't all breader. It is wonderful The sauce is flavorful which is not being overpoweringly sweet. I'll be going back.

I've been eating here over the years. Food is consistent and fast. Staff is friendly and to-go orders are well packaged. The food is always hot. If you are dining there, it's no frills and very casual.
Always friendly, and fast with our orders.
I go here for lunch all the time and the food is always fine. I haven't seen the one lady that's always there it's someone new. But today my broccoli was infested with larva. Idk if it's maggots or a normal bug that likes broccoli but I ate quite a few pieces when I found this and now I'm super grossed out. ??
ALWAYS pleased w my order and service. Too many Chinese restaurants offer limited if any veggies in the dishes Not here, great dish options w veggies if that’s your thing. Also service never disappoints!
My go-to for Chinese when I’m on the coast.

Staff is different and very rude. Refuse to do any substituting even a rangoon instead of an egg roll. I think it has different owner's, food is not the same and people are all different.

This place is pretty good. Sometimes the food is very bland and tasteless. . I have to ask for extra spices.I would like to eat in the restaurant at times but all their tables are broken. Typical Chinese place, They don’t like to fix stuff that is broken and it is getting run down now and dirty looking. I don’t think they care.Bathroom is gross but that’ to be expected at a chinese restaurant.
Hubby and I LOVE this place. It's so good that I drive 20 minutes to get it! I don't understand the bad reviews. The food is delicious! Especially the fried pork dumplings, they're our favorite! They're super doughy and yummy ? highly recommend the food! ??
