Stopped in with the fam to relax and savor a lunch. Spent two hours eating the food and still took some home. It was just that good. Good combo options. Definitely a repeat customer.

Great service but wasn't the best Chinese food. It was good but not the best.

Tom Barnard

Crispy beef is outstanding

Megan Venhuizen

Ms. Kuang (front desk, server, owner) is such a kind and hardworking lady. Always ready with a smile and story.

The food rocks. They are willing to make accommodations and the service is fast! Mr. Kuang really knows how to make good food in an hurry. We always get vegetarian options and they are always fantastic.

Go here. Support local business. Enjoy all the things they have to offer.

The entire food order for my family was so inedible and when I called to make it right she laughed me off the phone and even put a customer on the phone to tell me I was crazy .. no accountability. Really disappointed

Excellent food and prices. More options than most local Chinese restaurants. Don’t pass it up

Best Chinese food. Reminds me of the good stuff I remember as a child. They have been serving up perfect dishes for 32 years

I never thought I’d find a Chinese restaurant this great anywhere south of the mason dixon line. Food is fantastic and the atmosphere is also. Service is fast and friendly. The flaming volcano drink is delicious and fun. Crispy beef and orange chicken are delicious. Highly recommend

The food was good but the amounts were very small. Ordered a large General Tso's Chicken and a large Sesame Chicken with 3 egg rolls. The amounts were very small in the containers to be almost 31 dollars. Very disappointed

10/2024: This an interesting place. Very friendly owner/server is always interested to talk about the food and, if not real busy will try to cook to order. That being said, almost every time I eat here I find myself surprised by the taste, preparation, or flavor of the food. Not bad just never what I expect to get when I order. Very few Chinese vegetables or spices used in most of the dishes. Of all the items I have tried, General Tso chicken probably comes out closest to what I expect. Egg rolls get four stars or better.
They must have had a buffet in the past, but I have never seen it open. Nice secluded bar in the back and they asko operate a small pool hall next door with two regulation size tables.
In the six months or so I've been in town the schedule has been pretty variable. At first they were sticking pretty close to the published hours except when they would take a few days or a week off. They closed before the big 'hurricane' of 2024 like almost every business in town, but have not reopened, even though they don't seem to have any visible damage. Now showing 'temporarily closed' on Google map. Too bad, since it does have potential to be much better and has the best location for me to walk to.

Parking: Main street in old town Galax, so at some busy times you might have to look around a bit for a space, and sometimes you can park right out front. There is a free city lot about a block west where I have never failed to find a vacant space.

They have sushi unadvertised that is good. Food is always fresh and consistent. Great soups, cold duck and hot mustard sauce. Quality food not over portioned. Great orange chicken.

Walked out slow service

Nice little restaurant on the strip, downtown Galax. Food was fresh and authentic. A large variety on the menu. I had the shrimp and scallop dish and wife had a noodle dish with eggrolls.

I ordered chicken and broccoli and it was awful, it was the first time eating there and my last. It's back bamboo Garden for me.

I have eaten here 2-3 times and the Chinese food is always good and much like what you expect to find. Prices are reasonable the servers have always been friendly and helpful. They also have some sushi, but a limited selection I am afraid. What they do have is very, very good. [This is an unsolicited, uncompensated review.]

Parking: If there are no events going on you should be able to park out front or less than a block away.
