At first I was skeptical because of the rating. I’m very picky with my Chinese food and this is the 2nd time I order from here. I ordered the chicken rice noodles (HUGE) and the 6piece chicken with fried rice. Delicious!!! I gave it a 4 star ONLY because the 6piece chicken with fried rice was drummets and not the whole wing/drumstick. Other than that, it’s very good.

Great place for Chinese takeout with solid lunch special options! If you order from their website their prices are better (vs. DoorDash and I assume other delivery apps) and you get deals if you spend a certain amount. I got the General Tso & Orange Chicken lunch specials, vegetable lo mein and crab rangoons and got a pint of General Tso chicken as a freebie! They didn’t skimp and the lo mein (I got the small) was absolutely packed. The delivery was on time and they were very nice, 10/10 option in the area!

One of the best Chinese food I have ever had. While standing onsite to give my order for takeout, the lady who work on cashier received minimum 5 to 6 calls for delivery order which made me feel I’m standing in a very popular Chinese restaurant in the town. Though they were so busy with multiple orders it took only ten minutes to have my foods ready. Awesome service. I ordered Veggie Chicken Broccoli, egg drop soup, and chicken fried rice which were so delicious and fresh. Yummy!!

I generally don’t post bad reviews as I know everyone is trying their best. But man this has to be possibly the worst Chinese takeout of my life. Ordered schezuan chicken – the food was Meh at best – but the amount of onions, why – why so much onion ( see pictures), the onions outnumbered chickens like 10 to 1. Ended having to order something else from somewhere else. Shame

Impressed by our order. Best Crab Rangoon I have had in a long time, light and crispy and stuffed full. The general tso had a very good, flavorful sauce that wasn’t overly spicy. The sweet n sour chicken was lightly coated in crispy tempura. My only criticism is the s&s sauce was a bit watered down. Prices were comparable and portions large.

Food was a 7/10 on taste, so good in general. Food was hot and was ready in 5 minutes so pleased with quick service and good customer service in general. Price for General Tao’s chicken combination platter was advertised as $9.95 but that may have been a lunch special because the combination platter only came with the chicken, rice and an egg roll and soda was not included so I had to pay extra for that and total was $15.79 in total which is a little more expensive and a little more than I wanted to pay but not too bad. Would recommend
