2022-06-08 01:05:18I have been holding off on writing a review for this best-kept secret here in our neighborhood. Just because we would hate for it to become TOO popular... But I have to give credit where its due. The staff kept up with demanding customers all throughout the Covid pandemic with take-out food. Now its back open to indoor dining once again. The food is very tasty. We love the pan-fried noodles and whatever the fresh vegetable of the day is. They have lunch specials that are good. The won ton soup is really yummy. Kudos to Joyce who always greets us with a smile.

2022-05-04 04:23:05Super legit! Decent food at reasonable price AND friendly service. What more could you ask for! I stopped in on a whim in the middle of laundry mat adventures so I was blown away at their prices in San Diego it’s rare to see this. Come, experience and enjoy.

2023-08-11 15:01:51This is yet another hidden gem of a Chinese restaurant in San Diego. Skip all the larger chain restaurants and try this one instead! They have plenty of seating, the staff was very friendly, and the food was excellent. The orange chicken was very crispy and delicious, the crab rangoons were cooked perfectly, and the fried rice was excellent. This restaurant has some of the best orange chicken that Ive tried as well. There is plenty of parking, as this restaurant is located in a pretty big strip mall. I found this restaurant on a recommendation, and I will definitely be going back for more when Im in the area.

2023-07-06 03:25:04Food was served fast and hot and Customer service was great!However, the atmosphere was a bit shabby. boxes everywhere and dining room seems to double as storage. But food was good and service makes up for a great deal.

2023-06-22 22:57:36Ordered chicken lo mein got horrible food poisoning! I was sick for days had to see a doctor to check for dehydration. Called to speck to the manager and inform him. Instead of apologizing and offering to refund the cost of the meal but, he argued with me and to convince me I was allergic to MSG! Im half Chinese and definitely not allergic to MSG. Wont be going back there.

2023-06-02 03:59:39Been dining here for nearly 25 years... they have the best food, but the secret gem?... Their wanton soup... we call it the Magic Soup, because every time we ever had a cold we go get the family size wonton soup and the next day, cold is gone!Service is great and the husband and wife that run the place are super sweet and have wonderful senses of humor!... They also do to go orders and they have generous portions weather you dine in or take out.

2023-11-16 06:42:53Terrible experience. Take out rice was hard and clumpy and when I complained the manager started yelling. I just left the food there and will never go back!

2023-12-03 01:52:46This local eatery is one of my favorite places to eat, been eating here for several years and never disappointed! If you want good fresh Chinese food, with a very friendly, and helpful staff, this is the place to go. Nothing fancy, just good food. And June always has a smile and laugh when we come in! Good menu, lots of choices- spicy or mild, daily lunch specials at great prices! I strongly recommend !!

2021-08-02 23:55:27The BEST Chinese food I’ve ever had! (I’m actually eating it as I write this.)It’s always fresh and delicious. They have the most tender meat ever - the chicken and the beef are always amazing in every dish they make. My favorites are the orange chicken, beef and broccoli, chicken with snow peas, combination stir fry udon, and the pecan shrimp! Very generous portions. My mom loves their wonton soup. They have never disappointed me and I’ve been coming here for years. The lunch & dinner specials are great deals btw!
