Placed an order for take-out and got there in under 10 minutes and it was ready! Better than that - all the food we ordered was piping hot and delicious. It wasn’t over-salted/seasoned which is an issue we take with most other Chinese restaurants. Seriously the BEST Chinese food we’ve had in this area. We’ll be back for sure!
I ordered orange chicken, i never ever had orange chicken that look like this, it literally had oranges in it, making it to have a overbearing citrus flavor also there was no peppers onion or chillis in it, (which if it was, im sure the flavor would have balanced out) then my fried rice was actually steamed rice with some eggs in it, only thing was good was my egg roll thats it! im so annoyed i wasted money and now have to go spend more money for a much better meal! yall need to get it together,( seriously orange chicken doesn’t mean people want mandarin oranges in their orange chicken!)Then my lo Mein was only noddles no peppers or nothing once again!
The meals here are always good hot and fresh. They were low on staff but they were still friendly. Enjoy the artwork on the walls, you can get lost in them.
We had a lovely dinner tonight. We shared the Imperial Dinner for 2 which includes (I am just going to copy and paste so I don't leave anything out...): Sizzling Rice Soup, Fried Shrimp and Dumplings, Mongolian Beef, and Sweet Sour Chicken. Everything was spot on. Came out quick and hot. We ate every bite - except a few onions.... not because we were that hungry, but because we couldn't stop. :-) These combo dinners, like the Imperial, are the way to go!
The guy at the counter was very rude, it was as if I was bothering him by placing my order. The noodles were over cooked and under seasoned, the noodles were almost almost like dough...No one likes over cooked, flavorless noodles and that's what I got.Lo mein is my favorite Chinese dish and this was the worst I've ever had.
Sigh, it was a good place to go but now I wouldn't recommend. Went today for lunch and as all the other reviews said the fried rice is not fried and should be labeled dry rice. Don't know what happened. Service was poor.
Smaller restaurant but good food & service, much more impt than the classy restaurants w poor service & not so delicious foods. Keep up!
I decided to go here because I was in the mood for jajangmyeon, but I didn't want to drive all the way out to Carrolton. The jajangmyeon here was okay. The black bean sauce was lacking flavor. On the other hand, the sweet and sour chicken was pretty good. The staff were very friendly and the place was clean.
DO NOT EAT HERE, DO NOT EAT HERE. Worst Chinese food ever. Previous reviews stating this place is great, MUST BE FAKE. You are wasting your money. Ordered combo fried rice. Rice is steamed with fried egg, few tiny baby shrimp, few small pieces of beef, no chicken or pork could be found. Szechuan beef was terrible, not even Szechuan beef. It looked like steamed beef and onions, no carrots, no Szechuan sauce, not spicy. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Over priced And terrible food. Restaurant is very dimly lit so you cannot see how dirty it is.
Excellent Chinese food, one of only a couple we frequent.The sesame chicken is our personal favorite, and the crab rangoons.The atmosphere is simple but love it, always feels good to be in the restaurant

First of all, it takes A LOT for me to go out of my way to rate food. But I spent $30 on a meal that was, in all honesty, gross and thrown away most instantly. The egg rolls are the ONLY reason this isn't getting one stars. The egg rolls, $3 of my order, was the only edible thing. Wonton soup smelled and tasted FUNKY, lo mein & fried rice sucked. Orange chicken was flavored well but did not seem to be thoroughly cooked.
Truly deserves 0 stars. I went here with my wife and my child and sat near the front maybe 2 or 3 tables from the entrance and all we could smell was all of the 2nd hand smoke coming in from people smoking right outside the front door. After I mentioned it to the older man working there there he simply told me oh it's just the smokers outside and did nothing about moving us to a different table. Once we ordered the food and got the food at the table the fried rice was weird and yellow and definitely not fried rice. The plates we ordered were Orange chicken and sesame chicken. All the chicken looked like it was it was frozen and deep fried and both sauces appeared to be some kind of is some kind of canned or premade generic sauce. We ordered steam dumplings for our one year old and received half fried half steamed dumplings even though the menu clearlystated either steamed or fried. This too was brought up to the older man working there and he literally what he told us that they do half fried half steamed however I noticed that the dumplings must also be frozen because they were so deeply pan fried that they were not a light golden Brown but were a bit charred and burnt and served just as such. Needless to say this place was a waste of time money and appetite. I would not want my dead grandma to go here. Unfortunately we did not take any photos because we were in such a foul mood.
Great place. Been going here for years. I always get their Mongolian beef
1st dish was great. Remaining 7 courses were fair. Super friendly family and good service. Maybe it was just an off day for this visit? Would be willing to try again. Restaurant had good business so it appears customers like the flavors.
Recently went and they are super nice people, I love the egg drop soup super good highly recommend.
