“ We had a check (bill) discrepancy . Owner handled it very well . Communicative and cooperative . Great customer service . Like I said in my last post food was good and we were there really to fellowship and eat a good meal with friends after an event . ”
“ been coming here my whole life lol they've changed owners a couple times but foods still bomb try the orange chicken and the mongolian beef ”
“ Food was fresh and tasty. I had the lunch special beef & broccoli with steamed rice & it came with a small soup. It was good for the price. ( under $10) Service was prompt and friendly. The ambiance was nice , I went at 1 pm and it wasn't loud. I was actually coming to eat at the sizzler but it was closed so I decided to try this place, and I really enjoyed the food here. I will definitely be back for lunch again. ”
“ I would give this place five stars if there was air conditioning and if they hadn't shrank the portions. Irrespective of these issues, the food is still very good and you will not find better mongolian beef anywhere else. It is so tender and the flavor is perfect, you can taste the garlic in it but it is not too potent. Make sure you go during lunch hours because later on in the day the same dishes will cost you more money. Other items worth trying are the shrimp chop suey, sweet and sour pork, and the house fried rice. ”
“ I wouldn't care if this place was falling apart, I'd still come and eat. The Chinese food is the absolute best I've ever had. Fresh. Perfectly cooked. Best. Best. Best. ”
“ Small place next to Sizzlers. A bit stuffy and hot inside to dine. Food was very good. Vegetable fried rice was flavorful. Egg rolls had a great flavor. Orange chicken was delicious and side note, the only chicken breast offered. Mongolian beef was great although I wish the meat was cooked a bit more. Would definitely go back, maybe try take out! Also, service was great. ”
“ We hadn't been here in years, and if anything, it's even better now. Everything was sooooo good. Best walnut shrimp I've had. Price was good and the service was awesome. Definitely coming back. ”
