I ordered the Shrimp Lo Mein and the shrimp were so small or only a few in the Lo Mein. My fiancé ordered Gen Tso’s Shrimp and there was hardly any shrimp inside the fully packed breaded part. Rip off!

I love this place, and have been eating here regularly since 2015. When I worked in the area it was my go-to lunch spot for the excellent lunch specials, but even today I enjoy stopping by for a yummy takeout dinner (often at my wife's request) and to catch up with the owner, who is so sweet. My favorite is the spicy tangy wonton. Yummm. Check it out! The tables out front were always nice during the summer, but since the pandemic it's been takeout only.

Do you like getting exploited with premium Asian food prices for some barely above reheated frozen general tsao's quality food? Then this your jam. Best place in the DMV to pay $17 for a Panda Express grade entree.

General Tsao’s Chicken had dry (almost jerky dry) chicken chunks and the breading was too thick and flavorless.Pork pan fried dumplings were tasteless and all the sauces were over-sweet.All food was incredibly over-priced for such horrible tasteless quality.

Kung pao chicken was delicious. Haven't found another Chinese place that comes close.

Terrible orange chicken. My chicken was literally yellow in the middle. Do not go here if you want good Chinese food. The woman at the window was also rude.

gt okay

This place is disgusting and dirty. The food is terrible. And to top it off they are rude.

I’ve never had Chinese food so terrible. I ordered sesame chicken and lo mein. The Lo mein was good, but the chicken was absolutely horrid. There were TINY bits of the driest chicken I’ve ever had coated with thick layers of breading; like the ratio of breading to chicken was insane. I tried to get a picture of it to show what I mean and I dare you to find the chicken in that lol. It was completely inedible. There are tons of Chinese restaurants in the area, pick somewhere else or pay $20+ for fried flour and sauce.

We were dismayed that all 7 items seemed to be the same thing--cooked chicken pieces with noodles. The General Tsao chicken was plain chicken. The orange chicken was plain with a slice of orange on the side. The egg roll dry, and the seven of us were given 3 fortune cookies. The cost did not justify the quality nor amount of the food we were given. I honestly can't imagine where all the good reviews came from.

I was mildly dismayed at the price for a Chinese carryout spot, but the Singapore Rice Noodles I ordered were pretty good. There is not inside here because of COVID, but I think that's now just an excuse to decrease costs and not have to worry about maintaining a place to sit, so I was forced to stand outside in the cold for 10 minutes unfortunately.I think I would come back for the lunch options which is only $10 as opposed to the $16 I paid for my one dish.

While on a road trip, I discovered this restaurant on Google and saw that they had Gluten Free options. When I got there I realized that it was actually a pick up window Chinese restaurant (You are not allowed inside). They were aware of properly handling Gluten Free items and had a separate cooking area. They made sure to bag our food separately as only my food was Gluten Free. But my food was amazing! I loved the rice! It’s so hard finding good Gluten Free Chinese food now and I really enjoyed my food. I will be stopping here again the next time I am driving through the area.

The only truly gluten free/allergen friendly Chinese I have ever found. It’s amazing —
