Our Guestbook
“ I never leave reviews, but this place is special. My wife and I tried this spot on a whim after visiting our normal Chinese restaurant and they were closed. After 1 visit we have a new Chinese restaurant we will be frequenting. Everything about this place is a 5/5. For 38 we got a plate of orange beef, general tso chicken, an order of 2 egg rolls, and the bbq pork fried rice. All portions were huge. The entree portions came with a side of white rice. The fried dishes came out quick, hot, and crispy. There was ZERO taste of used/burnt oil that commonly accompanies American chinese dishes. Everything was super flavorful, and cooked very well. Nothing dry, nothing bland, it was as close to perfect as I could imagine. If you like value, this is the place to go. Great quality, large portions, and for pre pandemic prices. Unbeatable. ”
“ Me and my old man always order for lunch on Monday, the food is always hot and fresh and it’s always on time! It’s super affordable as the both of us can get a meal to sustain us for nearly the entire day for about 20 dollars total. ”
“ Beginning to be my new favorite place . Food is delicious and portions for price are great . ”
“ I don’t write reviews but I love this place and I see people not being truthful. Saying the combo plate is 15 for just chicken and rice is a FAT LIE. You get everything I showed in the picture for less than 10. General Tso combination comes w/ 1. More than 6 pieces of chicken (as it shows 2. Big scoop of rice 3. Egg roll 4. Choice of soup Buy 18 worth and u get it delivered for free. I always tip because I’m getting such a huge amount of food for cheap. They take an hour AT MAX. Usually 30 minutes tho (I’m not super far, 15 min max) Food is amazing and every time I ask for it to be prepared a certain way they do it. ”
“ The pork lo mein was great as was the shrimp fried rice. Huge portions of each, too. The prices are more than fair. Wish I could take this place everywhere I go! ”
“ I have been a customer since 1986 Food is always good! Delivery is Prompt Orders are always correct & fresh ”
“ This place is fast, hot and amazing! I love their easy and friendly deliveries. 9/10/24 still consistently good to me! Ordered the kung pao shrimp and house fried rice! ”
“ Awesome food and large portions. There must be about 10 gigantic delicious cream cheese puffs per order. The sesame chicken is amazing, not over breaded or fatty. The meat is very juicy I will definitely be ordering from here again. The order of sesame chicken and cream cheese puffs came with a large cup of sweet and sour sauce, many packets of assorted other sauces and two fortune cookies. ”
