I wish I had the option for NO STAR. Been here only once and this reminded me of why I do not trust Chinese food places. The service was horrible and the food was disgusting. I took a bite of broccoli beef and spit it right out. Had a taste of each item I got and immediately felt grossed out. I had the taste of chemicals, mold and many disgusting flavors all at once. Didn’t care to throw my money away and threw the entire full plate in the trash and don’t regret it.

Horrible food, almost every item we got was SO DRY and even more horrible customer service!!! I cannot stress that enough! Just PLAIN HORRIBLE. Rolling their eyes when asking for what I want, giving you only limited portions, they simply arent welcoming to new customers. Only one chicken stick in the combo, like what even is that? & the chicken stick WAS NOT EVEN GOOD!! I had to go return the chicken stick because it was so hard it must have been there for weeks, it simply was NOT EDIBLE! & they got angry at me for bringing them that piece of CHICKEN PLASTIC, THE AUDACITY!!! They gave me the $3.50 they priced for that plastic stick, but not a full refund. DEFINITELY NOT COMING BACK NOR RECOMMENDING THIS PLACE.

Food is great. Plenty of choices to pick from. Everyone’s taste is different but to me everything is seasoned just right, nothing is overly salty. Orange chicken is not too sweet, just right. Can choose either fried rice or steamed rice. I’ve been to this restaurant since I can remember, maybe 12 years now and the food has remained good. There is about 4 or 5 tables since the place itself is a bit small. Place is pretty full on weekends especially during lunch time.

This place is not as good as it looks. The food taste old, and did not have much flavor or meat to it. One of the sides (teriyaki chicken) was over cooked, very hard for me to chew the meat. The orange chicken did not taste like it had any meat in it, such a disappointment. I ended up throwing the whole combo plate in the trash. The service here was also not good, kinda of rude! And I noticed that they give more food to the “others”. The Plate was also overpriced! If your a real foodie person, DON’T COME HERE. Take your money else where! You’ll be glad you DID!

I like their foods especially the freshly cooked fried rice and orange chicken as well. I also have a crush on the tall lady and I forgot to ask her name, haha (✌). Anyways, I recommend this place especially in mornings that they have freshly cooked meal...

Love this place gotta get an order of the sweet and sour everytime I pass by

This place dont even deserve a star. Their food sucks and it doesnt help that they have disrespectful and disgruntle servers. My 12 year old and 17 year old stepdaughters went there with their uncle. They got 2 soy sauces and 2 hot sauces for three platters. They were yelled at for asking for more. Im not sure who they think they are to mistreat someones children. I dont advise that parents take their children. This is not a place for families. Management should require their employees to take a course in hospitality and customer care. When people are spending their money at a restaurant theyre not just paying for food but also for the experience. How do you serve Teriyaki chicken without teriyaki sauce and get upset when someone ask?

All chicken was dry. Vegetable rolls taste like an aquarium. And the shrimp was disgusting. The sauce on the chicken was really good. But the chicken was much too dry.

I havent been here for years and now I know why. Worse attitude I would love to say the b word but their service sucks as always. The food isnt all that either. Worse egg flower soup and the chow mein had a nasty flavor to it. I dont recommend this place one bit.

Love the food been going since i was 5 so 15 years now thanks to my dad . the rat thing is completely false seen on fb and took a pic of restraunt still open to friends because the state wouldnt allow the restraunt to be open if it was true. I never go anywhere else for chinese food except panda if im at the mall. attitude or not ive seen improvement the attitude was worst back then ! Id probably die if it closed for good .

My dad ate here 30 mins ago and he found a dead cockroach in his food. When he approached the cashier to address the issue the cashier then slapped his plate shut and returned his money, then tried offering a second free meal as if that one wouldnt have been contaminated also she also had attitude to her. My suggestions is please dont eat here. Weve called health department on them in hopes this is addressed responsibly
