Food is good. Make sure you are firm and loud with your order or they will throw anything on your plate just to keep the line moving.

Food is fresh and tasty. The most surprised item is rice, they use high quality rice to cook, better than any local Chinese restaurant.

Food is good at a cheap price. However, is mostly Chinese and don’t speak that much English. The servers don’t like being there one lady didn’t look at me with even smile and no eye contact with customers. She packs up food in clumsy way the noodles are hanging off the box. The line may be long and not everybody knows where it starts.

Great food flavor, great price, some vegetarian options (pictured)
The one star reviews…they are not rude employees. They are just running their business and don’t have time to chat. Just point at what you want, you get 4 options + soup. Their goal is to serve you food and move the line!

Reviews regarding varied menu and Piled-high food at a ridiculously low price ($8.50) are all true.
Not easy to navigate options as servers behind buffet style offerings are limited English speakers. Signs aren't well displayed and worn.
Food was indeed tasty, but my selections were ALL tepid and well...I HATE tepid food.
I ordered the battered fish, green beans, garlic eggplant, salted chicken--all were good on the palate for flavor, but it would not have hurt to give a good toss to the trays in which these sat so to get a hot meal.
Perhaps it's best to arrive once they open. I came at 130pm and that might've been too late for a true hot lunch at its tasty best.
Don't forget to order your fruit with your meal... As soon as you pay, you've paid.
Sitting and eating, I saw lots of folk eating in and walking out with tubs of watermelon as part of their meal. I mustered up the courage to ask if the fruit was included as I saw so many other plates with 5 or more selections at the tables AND their tub of watermelon, or soup.
After several minutes of hand gestures and repeating if fruit was included as for the others, the server slopped some cubes into a bowl and said: ok, ok... free, Free ;(
I'll return in a month or so--right when they open to see if there is a difference... And make sure to order all at once. ;)

I'd like to share a rebuttal to all the influencer-following sheep giving this place 1-star reviews recently. This place is the best value for your money in the entire city. The portions are huge. The variety is immense. The quality is fantastic. All that for $8.50.
So what if it didn't live up to the expectations of some snobby NPC clown who wouldn't even know this place existed if not for some TikTok video. So what if the women behind the counter don't smile and hold your hand (they're nice and respectful regardless, as long as you respect them). So what if they don't speak perfect English.
Guess what? This place don't open just for you. It's an immigrant owned-and-operated establishment that opened to serve an immigrant community. For low-income immigrants and others, this place is a lifeline. For people missing home, this place is a slice of comfort. All are welcome, but if you're not the target audience, don't slander a place that others depend on all because it isn't your taste or exists outside of your comfort zone.
I hate influencer culture and all the brain-dead cows it herds around.

Came in when they opened , they were stocking up which usually isn’t a problem. But they’re staff bumps as they pass you , no apologies. Next is the woman who speaks little English. She was able to tell us only four items could be picked for $8.50 . Also the food was all out and looked pretty cooked . Last they only take cash . WALK AWAY ON THIS ONE .
This was my first time visiting this place and all I can say is NEVER AGAIN. First I let her know this was my first time and I saw her business on Instagram. Her attitude was very rude when speaking to me. Then she told me no more noodles beside the white ones which was only enough for 1 platter.You do choose 4 meats as was said in the video. Got my food sat down to eat my food was cold. Told her about it she going to say warm it up in the microwave and pointing to the back. As, she doing that the young man brought out hot fresh noodles. I said to her I thought it wasn’t no more you could have just told me to wait instead of trying to give me something I didn’t want. I don’t recommend for people who ain’t Chinese. She was very nice to her kind.

Wow…. With everything heavily inflated, this one is one rare dime. $8 you get four full portion choices and a soup. Hands down respect.
