Just got the best Chinese take out that Ive had in a while. Mongolian beef was the right amount of spicy with a nice sauce. I put it on some tasty beef noodles and pork fried rice. The orange chicken was the best Ive had in a while as well. The chicken is well done, but not dry. Crispy and sweet. Could be more orange flavored, but still good. The hot and sour soup was tasty and so were the egg rolls. Pot stickers were thin and soft with a nice meaty filling. Will be back. Its really not a place to sit down and eat; fantastic for pick up. The owners are really sweet.

This is my first time here, and I would definitely come again. Unlike other Chinese restaurant, you can actually see the food prepared right in front of you. It is very transparent of what the cook add into your order. The staff are welcoming and friendly. I ordered a combo plate with broccoli beef and orange chicken with chow mein. They were kind enough to alter the order to my liking which is something that other restaurants are not willing to do. Highly recommend this place to others!!

Been here about 3x already and have never been disappointed by their food or their customer service. At the moment, I’ve only seen the same two hard working people that I suspect are the owners. That aside, they are both very hard working and it shows in their delicious food.Personal favorite is their pan fried noodles, chicken fried rice, and orange chicken. Their dumplings are amazing as well. They serve big portions as well.. Definitely a must try!

Im not sure how there are good reviews within the last couple of weeks. For starters, the cooks did NOT wash their hands before cooking our food. The cooks were eating/on phone/resting their head down when we walked in so they were clearly on a break. I tasted a small bite of everything, because well im not rude and I did not want to just toss it and leave which i should have since i was eating food that was prepared by someone that didnt wash their hands. No flavor at all and we both got stomach aches. Unfortunately, Id give zero stars if I could. I sure hope they step their game up, because years ago they were one of the best!! Very disappointed.

I have never been disappointed in their food. Their orange chicken is crispy and not spicy. Sometimes we get 2 orders of it because we like it so much.

I never really leave reviews but this place was terrific. The lady behind the counter was very polite and patient as we looked over the menu. We are originally from los Angeles area and have not been able to find comparable asian cuisine in Visalia. We got the orange chicken, shrimp fried rice, panfried noodles, teriyaki chicken and chicken and broccoli. Delicious. We finally found our new favorite place! Everything is made fresh to order so call in for faster service.

My hubby and I have been going here for years! The employees/owners are the best in service and promptness. They have a passion for their work!What we order:Spicy chow mein (spicy oil) with chicken is fn bomb!The owner made us fried fish and shrimp combo that left us wanting more every chance we have.Other honorable mentions:Honey walnut shrimp is to die for!Cant wait to go back.

Super yummy mom and pop Chinese food!The owners are very sweet and the food is made with love.The menu is a traditional Chinese/American menu and has dishes for everyone. Even Vegatarians like me!I highly recommend the Kung Pao Tofu if you like spice.Try this place out while we are in quarantine to help keep a local business open!

The young lady taking my order was very helpful and sweet. Ordered a chicken curry that wasnt prepared the way I expected. But maybe I didnt order it right. Otherwise it was ok. Next time I will stick to something more familiar like orange chicken or something

Review №28

Dont eat here just because its cheap, although the orange chicken was good, the noodles were covered in BLEACH, I got home and shoved a fork full into my mouth only to discover the taste of bleach. I called the manager or owner of the establishment and he confirmed the use of bleach to clean the cook ware, this is unacceptable and dangerous, I highly recommend eating else were before you get sick or worse by their food.
