The food was good but overpriced. My girlfriend got the orange chicken. And to our surprise it didn’t include white rice. Who doesn’t include rice with orange chicken? That being said it was a huge portion, but if the portion was half the size with white rice that would’ve been perfect
I got the beef fried rice. And it seemed more like a side than a full dish. As I was still hungry after I ate it. All this for 37$ Needless to say we won’t be returning
Side note, the staff were nice at least but the pricing is ridiculous for you get it

The only reason I didn't get a five star was because they have canned sodas, and the lemonade wasn't great.

Nice place, the people where friendly staff was great. Went there to meet up with friend. Only had drinks but the atmosphere was chill seen the food that was coming out for other customers and it looked tasty. Im happy I was introduced to this little gem

I have several family members with dietary restrictions (gluten free, low fat, low sodium) and the staff are helpful in recommending dishes that fit these requirements or adjusting the preparation to accommodate requests. There is never a wait for a table and the service is very fast.

I stopped here specifically because the food use to be delicious. I paid $15 for a lunch special. Chicken chow mein and fried rice. The rice is not fried rice, it’s brown rice. No egg and I found 1 pea, that’s it. The chow mein use to be my favorite and it is flavorless. The spring roll was good. But $15 for plain rice and some noodles. No thank you

22$ for this. Very disappointed, not stopping here ever again.
I ordered the sesame chicken lunch special, the fried rice isn't fried rice it's just regular rice, why call something fried that isn't? No peas or anything. After eating the egg roll and a few piees of the chicken I started getting a bad stomach ache. I didn't trust eating the food so took it back and did at least appreciate they gave me a refund. I've never gotten sick like that from chinese food, they must use MSG in their food. The chicken was cooked fine, but the sauce sucked it was super thick, gelatin like and flavorless.

I needed to find a restaurant that’s open later than most last night. I’ve driven by this restaurant for many years but something about it didn’t entice me to stop in.
Eventually I did read reviews because I have been looking for a more traditional Chinese restaurant because there’s fewer of them; in general the reviews weren’t favorable but I decided to try it myself due to circumstances.
I forgot to ask for it without MSG, it probably was filled with it. They don’t offer low sodium soy sauce which is very unusual in my experience.
I ordered my usual favorite Chinese dishes: fried wontons and prawns with lobster sauce. I’m uncertain what was inside the wontons but it tasted terrible!! I was hungry but, I only ate a few, and then only ate the part without the mystery meat inside.
The prawns themselves were good but the sauce simply tasted bad; perhaps the MSG was the culprit but the peas and carrots seemed to be from a can instead of fresh but I don’t know for certain.
Additionally, just ordering the fried wontons, prawns with lobster sauce and white rice which wasn’t included cost me almost $40 with tax!!!! I took home the remaining white rice; I ate all the prawns but left everything else because I knew that I would never eat it.
There are positive reviews which surprise me but it depends on what you order; one reviewer mentioned asking not to have MSG on it but I sadly assumed that it’s well known not to use it anymore.
The table I was sitting at had tape on the booth, in general the environment looks old and not taken care of yet not actually uncomfortable.
Well I should have listened to my gut feeling about this place and the bad reviews; it was both the timing and my interest in this type of Chinese food as to why I gave it a chance. BAD IDEA, especially for such a high cost! Food prices have gone up yet I believe that the last time I had Chinese food similar to this, it was 1/3 - 1/2 the cost and tasted good!
I’m extremely busy lately but I decided to write this review to warn people to absolutely ask to not include MSG in the food in case that’s at least part of the problem but whatever was inside those wontons was tasteless with a strange texture too. Oh, and the usual sauce to dip it into had a strange texture yet acceptable taste for sweet and sour sauce.
I usually take pictures of my food but it was late and I was hungry, it actually looked good but obviously looks can be deceiving. Again, the price made this experience even worse….
One more comment is that there were two men talking VERY LOUDLY about seemingly personal issues. Otherwise the noise level was normal. But it was strange that both men who didn’t appear elderly just happened to be talking very loudly.
