It’s takeout Chinese, nothing fancy, but the egg rolls are always crispy and I am impressed that they seem to use fresh vegetables in their dishes. I got the cashew shrimp recently and it was loaded with fresh chopped zucchini and carrots, versus other places where it’s just a handful of celery and pre-frozen diced carrots.

The food at this restaurant is very very good. At 1st the woman is very very nice to me..I spent like $250 a month because I just wanted Chinese food. Lately. She’s been rude. I have kidney disease and I had to go to the bathroom so bad and she told me that her bathroom was broke.

The absolute BEST Chinese I have ever had! My office orders from here often. They have never messed up our orders, are always prompt, prices are comparable to others, and their shrimp w/ mushrooms is delicious! We hope they never change their sauce recipe… perfectly done rice!

It’s honestly pretty disappointing. But I called in yesterday to place a delivery order through grubhub and it was canceled the first time due to my location(yet I’ve had previous orders delivered to said address). The second time I called in to see why it was canceled again and they told me it was because they were not doing deliveries. So I ordered again and chose Pickup and my order was canceled again for not having ingredients.

We ordered takeout on Christmas eve via Grubhub which didn’t come out until 30 minutes after they said to come. The place was dead when we went to pick the food up so that doesn’t make a lot of sense.

This is my first order here. I am new to the area and a few other places I tried weren’t so great. We tried several dishes to see how it was overall.

Great food and Super POOR Customer Service … period ! They need to take customer service training classes pronto…and learning to go above and beyond for the customer and that your in the food service industry and you are providing a service to the individual and the general public. Food safety and honoring the request of the general public and the person is super crucial for their business it should never be rejected any requests. You don’t know who is who… So without doing anything for customer(s) when they asking for a request..then you might as well close your doors and don’t be apart of the general public and it’s food service industry.. please Improvement is must !
