I’ve been coming here for over 20 years. As a kid, I looked forward to going here with family on Saturdays as that’s when we would visit. Since money was tight, this was always a special place to visit. After all these years. It still holds a special place in my heart. Food is amazing, as is the service. Check it out if you want some delicious food.

We placed a take out order in the restaurant for three items. We were greeted and they were gracious to give us ice water as we waited. The order was given to us quickly. When we got back to the hotel we noticed the food was not well made. The chicken fried rice was boiled chicken and egg on white rice – not fried. The mongolian beef had minimal flavor and the white rice was not good. The egg rolls were well done, almost burned. We each ate only half our meal and threw the rest away. We were too tired to go back to the restaurant. I tried to email them, but the email on the website bounced back. Bummer!

I notice these reviews are really old. The last time I went was 4 years ago. The food I ordered was reheated some parts where hot and some parts where cold. I swore I would never go back, today May 15, 2023 I went back hoping the food would be better. My order was for pick up. When I brought it home it was disgusting . The quality of the beef was poor the Kung Pao- Chicken, chicken was reddish pink it didn’t even have hot sauce. This place needs to be shut down. I will never go there again. Oh I almost forgot there was no paper fortune in the fortune cookie

Ordered two dishes and one small soup. Soup (egg flower) was fantastic.Mongolian beef was undercooked, accompanying vegetables were over cooked…chicken chow fun was slimy and chicken was low quality . Would not recommend.

From outside it looks like a very small place but once inside one can see the difference. Lots of space, elegant but comfortable. Very nice waiters. Tasty and great variety of food. Very large portions. Definitely a place to return.

I never write reviews, but I’m just so bothered by my experience. I ordered over the phone, orange chicken, veggie fried rice and an egg roll. I had a paper menu at home that I ordered off of. I went to pick it up, he tells me the price $45. I said “excuse me?” I ordered orange chicken fried rice and an egg roll. We had a miscommunication about the egg roll order. I thought I was ordering one single egg roll. I said ok we had a miscommunication. He continued to rant at me. So I said assertively, “ sir, I said we had a miscommunication “ so he stopped talking. He then offered to take the egg roll out. I said yes please. So now, my bill was $35. Which is still insane for rice and chicken. I said the menu I have must be wrong then. Bc that doesn’t calculate to what’s on the paper menu. Either way, whatever. I took the food home. Now I’m infuriated. The fried rice was flavorless and basically soggy white rice with veggies and scrambled egg. I tried to dr them up, add soy sauce and fry them in a pan. Now, I try the orange chicken. The smell of burnt sauce oozed out of the container. I took a bite, the chicken was chewy yet had a sandy crunch when bit into with an intense burnt flavor. Maybe work on the quality of food before upping every item 5 more bucks. And no one needs a sob story about gas prices when a customer brings up how insane the prices are. I’ll literally never order from here again. Please work on your quality before over charging. Now I’ve wasted 35 bucks, and food is wasted and going in the trash. Super disappointed.

Love their lunch specials! Available everyday. I usually call and pick up. The salad is the best to me, simple but good. This is the orange chicken.

Some parts of the food were luke warm. I like my meals hot! After watching the movie, Waiting, I decided to doggie bag it and take it home. Otherwise service was good, food was good, the fried shrimp was the BOMB and the restaurant was clean.

Food was great and filling. Been a long time since I tasted original(?) chow mein. Brought back some memories. Very good Chinese cuisine. Will definitely come back and try others on the menu. This is real chow mein, not the one at PandaXpress.
