The lady is so nice and funny. Also I appreciate her strong advice. She had great service in taking my order. She was really friendly. Ive been coming here all my life. Btw to all them haters its not cool making such negative comments about this place and to the rest of the crowd its not true. So come and check it out. Their food is bomb.

Absolutely terrible overall on every level. I gave this place a chance every step of the way. The atmosphere needs updating, attitude form the little guy at the counter need to chill sounds like hes unhappy withbhis job bit we shouldnt have to deal with that. Took a order of egg rolls and they were dryer than the Nevada desert. Didnt finish the food because it wasnt sitting well since the first bite. People stay away!!!

Friendly employees. A rated restaurant. I ordered orange chicken⭐ beef broccoli⭐⭐⭐ and chow mein⭐⭐⭐ $9 also you get a free fortune cookie. It was a big disappointment on orange chicken. Plenty of parking be aware theres other business around so if you have an SUV will be a little bit difficult to move around there. cuz theres a lot of compact parking only. 🚗🚙

Great little gem. Sesame chicken was on point, not too sweet a bit garlicky, with the right amount of kick and tang. Nothing was too oily or salty. The seasoning was on point. Feel youre getting enough food for what you pay, especially in the protein department. The chow mein didnt have any green onion, just cabbage, but the fried rice surprisingly has green peas and egg--not very common in places like Chinese takeouts with heat lamps. Overall, I give the place a solid 4 stars (most places like this one only earn two to three stars in my book) but because of the friendliness of the owner I went ahead and bumped it up to five! Their other entrées, like their veg chop suey and beef and broccoli looked very fresh and appetizing. Highly recommend.

Well besides from the orange chicken and teriyaki tasting so bad, the drink I got was filthy on the top and I was thinking it was literal animal droppings or something. I had to wipe it off and even clean it with water to be able to drink it. I dont recommend this place what so ever because the only thing that came out good was the rice and chowmein!

Got rice and chow mein with orange chicken and kun pao chicken. Chow mein was ok, the rice didnt have any flavor and the kun pao chicken was more like kun pao green pepper and onion. The orange chicken was disappointing. Bad food, ok service, definitely not coming back.

Friendly staff but food was not great at all. The chow mein, kung pao chicken and orange chicken did not look appetizing to the eye but just wanted to give it a try and not be rude and walk away. I dont like writing bad reviews but because the staff is very kind, I hope they read their reviews and make adjustments to make their food look more appealing and tasty.

Listen...They are the reason why Im alive or any of you all still surviving or barely getting the energy to cook. The food quality is always the same and amazing, it doesnt change. Its consistent, its like coming home to moms cooking which is basically high level honors there.For the price...its definitely big bang for your bucks. So tip with love and support cause they are carrying the weight of this community unlike corporations who barely give you any love besides their fast processed food.

Only because I cant give a zero!! First time trying it, the chow mien was flavor less, orange chicken was dry and chewy and even found a piece of bone! BBQ pork was extremely salty! Veggie rolls were oddly full of white spots and had no veggies inside um! I went back and told the woman there of my opinion and that I honestly couldnt eat her food... She didnt wanna hear me and went on trying to explain that she uses fresh chicken thigh and that too bad I didnt like it and that her customers never complain and that if I want my money or exchange it wasnt gonna happen! That if I get sick to get health insurance... I was furious! This had never happened to me! I wouldnt recommend it, she even said Well you shoulda asked me for a sample before buying, I never exchange or refund so too bad now leave!... Omg I almost lost it!!

The food here sucks big time!How can this place stay in business with such poor quality tasting food? I kid you not. Right after I bought it and drove away, I said to myself I hope it doesnt suck! Got home and sure enough it did. I will never second guess again! Im hoping not to get sick later tonight! Stay away if you love your stomach! !!

I shouldve paid attention to the reviews and stood away from this place. I was craving chinese and this was close to work. I ordered half rice, half chow mein and orange chicken as the entree. I was highly disappointed! The rice didnt have much taste, the chow mein was overly cooked and the orange chicken isnt what you find at the other fast food chinese places. They have the chicken and orange glaze separate so when you ask for it they grab a few pieces of the fried chicken and then add the glaze on top. The chicken was horrible and had a funky smell. Never again!!!

We gave gone to this store for years, but it must have changed ownership because the food last Tuesday was not fit to eat. We tried, but it was very bad and we threw it out. It was like it had been kept on hand for a day or two. A price increase included: no free drink, no extra two egg rolls (they werent fit to eat either), and an increased price for the combos. We will not ever go back there.

Worst Chinese food Ive had in ten years. The chow mein might as well be called brown wet slimey soft spaghetti😝 The orange chicken taste like jelly dipped tempura cus theres no chicken in it. The ONLY thing that was good was the fortune cookies and the almond cookies which by the way was not cooked by them. Sorry but Im telling the truth.

I dont usually post reviews but the food was so bad I have to. First time here and was so so disappointed. I took a few bites and threw the rest away. I will not be coming back. Only rated it one star because there is no way to rate a minus 5 stars.
