We love eating here after church. I honestly think people are very harsh when it comes to reviewing Chinese food restaurants. They get mad when the waiter isn't overly enthusiastic and I think that's not a fair. Our waitress here is quiet but always polite and helpful. The chicken and broccoli was very fresh and seasoning was perfect. The crab rangoons are sweet and crispy. They pair well with the sauce. I think the lunch portions are the perfect size. We will keep coming back!!!

They serve food fast, hot & delicious. I like their Hunan Beef, Chicken/Beef lo mein, Beef w.mix vegs. wanton soup & eggroll.
Twice my coworkers and I have tried lunch here. Twice we had horrible service, waitress clealry doesnt care about guests. Their lunch specials are confusingly written whether you get a soup and egg roll, or just one or the other. Don't eat here as a vegan...their lunch specials don't include you. They won't substitute any tofu for meat, it's just an extra $2 charge. No soup, no roll for you. No noodle options (they're all egg.) Oh and I think everything has msg because they have one special section on the menu that is items without msg, oil, or salt. And I left hungry still both times, the portion is not sizable.
I'm usually a great tipper even with average service. But I was so dissatisfied here as a customer I didn't want to tip anything.

No.
Over cooked noodles, bland everything. The food was edible but the somehow forgot the flavor.
It's the most subpar chinese food I've ever had.

I love the hot and sour soup (I am picky about my H&S soup). The General Tso's tofu is very, very good, light and super crispy on the outside, perfectly soft on the inside. As a vegetarian, it is one of my favorite local meals.
Vegetarian options: General Tso's Tofu is an option under chef specialties. I am certain you can choose Tofu as an option with other dishes/sauces.

Food was not good at all! No taste. Fried rice was nothing at all like the fried rice I’ve had in other places. Will not go back!!!!

The portion size of the meals are smaller and the price increased. The egg drop is not as good as it use to be.

I first dined here in 2016, and I'm sad to say I didn't get back until today. We ate after lunch rush at 1:30 when some restaurants quality can diminish. Everything was perfectly cooked, seasoned, and fresh. The shrimp and chicken on the Dragon and Phoenix plate was tender and full of flavor. The vegetables had just the right amount of crisp. The service was excellent and the restaurant was clean. I can't wait to come back.
