My husband and I ordered from this restaurant for the first time after looking at reviews on a Facebook post. We ordered shrimp, egg foo yong fried chicken wings, vegetable fried rice and two shrimp eggrolls .We picked up and my husband went into retrieve our order. He stated everything inside was nice and clean. When we got home we realized the food was so salty. Everything. We could barely eat it... I know we both have high blood pressure form the one bite we took. We couldn't even finish the food. We won't go back.

Hands down the best Chinese food in the Buffalo area. Fresh, quality ingredients, freshly and expertly prepared.
We had the Ginger Garlic Chicken and pan fried Egg Foo Young. Both were awesome!

First time ., last time! Was recommended by a friend. Atmosphere felt like going behind the counter in an old bank. It was dead silent there and awkward seeing you could hear a pin drop and others could hear you even if you whispered. Food was ok, not great, our server wasn't that great ime enough though it was just one other table with an old man at it. Not too mention she didn't tell me the pop refills weren't free and I spent $9 just on pop.

Between two of us, getting one person special we added boneless ribs and she had one glass of wine.. $100+ UNREAL!!!! WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!

YUM! My husband and I have been searching for a great Chinese place and we lucked out with May Jen. We dined in for restaurant week and were very impressed with the food and service. Our waiter was very charming, funny, and sounded like he had the perfect soothing late night radio host voice. He was very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had about the menu, including offering some of his recommendations. My husband got the Hunan beef restaurant week special and it was so incredibly tender. Of course I stole a few bites! I had the General Tso dinner for one combo. The items I chose were Wonton soup, a pork egg roll, and vegetable fried rice. Everything was absolutely delicious. The chicken was lightly breaded, which made it so enjoyable. I've been disappointed with other Chinese places and the loads of breading they are putting on the chicken for General Tso. But this dinner was perfection. I would absolutely come back. It is a bit pricey, but the quality of the food makes the cost worth it.

Very welcoming and delicious food. I got the general tso chicken and it was freshly made. The chicken was soft and the sauce was really nice and not too spicy. The server and owner were very friendly. A nice lunch experience . Definitely coming back !

I was starving coming home from a roadtrip and ordered delivery. A big piece of plastic wrap was cooked into my food! I pulled it out of my throat realizing what it was and vomited right away! ?

Have gone here for years. Love their General Tso and Garlic Chicken dishes!! It's quiet and clean which is a major plus, too. Soft, tasteful music conducive for intimate conversations and relaxing dining. Lovely servers. Always enjoyable!!

Don't ever order for delivery from door dash. They had me wait close to 20 minutes when the restaurant had only 2 tables. Slow service.
