Im a commercial driver and parked at the truck stop across the street , came to food lion and saw this place . And from now on when in the area im coming here . This place was busy on a Friday . The general tsaos chicken was perfect , the egg roll was fresh and crunchy and the crap Rangoon off the chain . Definitely recommend it

I dont even know where to begin !!! Hot and sour soup ?? This thing is not sour nor hot, just temp hot. Tasteless mix of everything in thickened water 🤮🤮🤮 I had hot and sour soups before but this one ???? Gross 🤮🤮🤮 Beef and broccoli ?? Another tasteless dish. Is it that hard to throw some garlic and spices ??? Avoid !!! Orange chicken ?? It is orange if you dont mind to chew big chunks of orange peel. Other than that another just pieces of maet with no flavor. $40 wasted !!!

Unfortunately, the service at this establishment was far from pleasant. The owner lacked the basic social skills necessary where clear communication and customer interaction are essential.
One glaring issue was the shrimp toast. It was undercooked and cold in the middle. I informed the owner, who went to the kitchen but never returned to address the issue or offer a solution. A simple acknowledgment or effort to remake the dish would have been appreciated, but none was provided.
While some meals did have decent flavor, the overall experience was overshadowed by the unwelcoming atmosphere and lack of customer care. For a budget friendly option, I didn’t find it worth my time to press further, but the lack of attention to basic service standards makes this place hard to recommend.

I really hate to say this since there other dirtbag truck drivers here. But i rest assure Im nothing like them. This has to be one of the cleanest well prepared great tasting chinese food restaurants I have been to and I have been to alot. The only beef i have 9.00 for ribs and giving me whats seemed to be the smallest possible.... The egg rolls were great and the beef and brocoli a nice amount of dumplings.. Ill be back...
Everything needs attention... the food is sub par.... the staff is never glad you're there.... the inside needs to be cleaned.

Normally the food here is on point but the last time the General Tso sauce was very thin almost like sweet & sour sauce. Didn't care to much for that. Everything else was delicious. Love, love, love their steamed dumplings.

Only had the egg rolls but they were very good. Ordered and out the door in about 5 minutes. Very clean!! Will be back to try other things. Looking forward to it.
Sometimes good, sometimes alright. Seemed as if the food tasted fresher after they moved but has went down some. But we will be back!

I’m a truck driver a this is hands down my favorite Chinese restaurant in the country. I judge Chinese food by their freshness, fried rice, chicken wings, shrimp & & egg foo young! It’s hard to find a better egg foo young than at this place the young man at the front is always nice & polite.
