This is one of a few rare "craving" places we have in our household. Sometimes I just crave their sweet and sour chicken and need to drive across town for it. I love their sweet and sour chicken, it cannot be beat. We of course get other things every time, but this is the standout dish that we come back for over and over again. Just the right amount of everything. The pricing here is pretty basic Asian fast food pricing. Not as much as a sit down place, but a little bit higher than the super cut rate chinese places around town. A good compromise for price and quality. They also have boba which is a nice little treat to get when you are driving home in traffic. The quick serve side of the restaurant is nice than most quick serve restaurants but still isn't "date worthy", next door in the Korean BBQ would be a better bet for that. But the space is still nice enough to be a place to feel like you are eating at a restaurant instead of just a quick serve formica joint. If you can't already tell....we will be back .... especially when we need to satisfy that craving for some delicious sweet and sour chicken.

The best Chinese food in town. My favorites are the lunch specials Mongolian Beef and Generals Chicken. They give big servings and quality and taste are the best in town. So cheap too. Try their milk teas they are good too. Food is always fresh. Loved their chow mein, Generals Shrimp and Orange Beef too!

Outstanding Korean BBQ for a reasonable price, great service, and boba adjacent. My oldest son (7 yo) loves getting the baby octopus and watching them curl up on the grill. Surprisingly enough, he also eats them happily. The youngest son (3 yo) won't eat anything aside from the rice and the chicken appetizer, but that's pretty good for him.If you are in the area, I highly recommend checking them out.

We were eating in at the Korean BBQ next door and wanted to try some of their boba. It is reasonably priced for the amount you get. We tried the Jasmine Milk Tea and Black Sugar with honey boba. The Jasmine Milk Tea was too flowery and not sweet enough for my taste. I would not get that again. However, the Black Sugar was perfect! Usually, the Black Sugar is overly sweet at other shops, but the amount of sweetness is perfect here. These were both made and delivered to us in a timely fashion. The interior design and decoration is the same as the KBBQ next door. I think the place can definitely use a remodeling to be more modern. Lastly, their menu has a selection of their signature drinks you can order from. However, you also have the option to make your own by choosing a flavor, the amount of sweetness, and any toppings. The sweetness of the drinks are usually at 25%, so I would recommend going 50% or 75% sweetness to match the normal sweetness range of other boba shops.

This is how much ice was left after I finish the whole cup of milk tea… They basically sold me 2/3 cup of ice at the price of milk tea. Even I want to keep the tea at the lowest possible temperature until the last minute before I finish it, apparently this much ice is unnecessary.

Ordered 3 taro and 1 Thai tea and when the worker came out giving me 3 Thai teas and 1 taro which was the opposite of what I said, I told her it was fine and she slams the messed up drinks and sighs really loud. I don’t know why she was mad and tells me “you should of told me” but how was I supposed to know she was going to mess up my order lol. She then asks if I wanted a bag and I said yes because I couldn’t carry them, she slams the bag down and just walks away. That was awkward. She was mad for what? Lol

Was really craving boba and this was the closest location to me so I popped in. It was super empty for lunchtime and I got a taro boba with regular sweetness which was considered 25%, the only thing I appreciated was the light ice but man. It was so sweet I couldn't even finish it and all the tapioca pearls were gummy so they just kept getting stuck in the straw. Craving unfortunately not satisfied.
A great establishment that gives the neighborhood a taste of China!This is where I went because a friend of mine was craving bubble tea. When we arrived, we were greeted by a friendly and enthusiastic owner, as well as the staff. You could see they were quite proud of their location. We appreciated the owner's assurance that if we didn't like it, we could return it, and they would remake it to our liking- THANK YOU!So we ordered Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee chilled. We also split the fried oysters. The tea had a pleasant aroma, and you could detect the use of genuine tea leaves. In my opinion, this is a fantastic location. I would return to try the other dishes.

Siu is our favorite - whether it's the Korean bbq side or the express. We always order the general chicken lunch combo with hot and sour soup! Other items we have ordered and loved are the popcorn chicken, fried calamari, garlic noodles, beef broccoli and spicy pork belly. So good and can't beat the price!We have tried the drinks here and honestly, it's not our favorite. I've tried the oolong milk tea and Thai iced tea, both are just ok. Today, I tried the Vietnamese iced coffee and maybe we just had a bad batch or something because it was far from a Vietnamese iced coffee. I was expecting a strong coffee taste, but it just tasted like milk. Just by looking at the drink, you can tell it was mostly milk. Not gonna take off a star though, because I'm hoping we just got a bad batch.

My go to Chinese spot for a handful of things. Their Chinese food is so good! I judge a place by their general chicken. And my goodness their general chicken was great! And to my surprise came with a serving of what's seemed to be blanched broccoli with it! Another favorite of mine that I crave, is their garlic noodles. It's it's just as it sounds. Chow Neon noodles drenched and fried in garlic. Their service is always sweet, and they've always got someone running their boba bar. My personal favorite on their menu is their Vietnamese coffee. With boba. Second to none I've had before. Writing this review has me wanting to go back!

Excellent service, the staff is super fast and accommodating, the atmosphere is so relaxed and friendly and then there was the food; so much good food. The price is worth the service alone; what a great find. We will definitely be back.

Apparently, if you pay for your food and they don't have it you cannot get a refund. I REPEAT, NO REFUND FOR FOOD YOU ALREADY PAID FOR, THAT THEY RAN OUT OF OR DON'T HAVE!!
