Prompt service, delicious food, and very affordable prices. My friend and I stopped here for lunch and were glad to have found it via the reviews here. It was well worth stopping by and we both enjoyed it very much. The hot and sour soup was perfect and we had chow mein noodles that were excellent! The noodles weren't overly greasy as they can be at some restaurants, and the meats were perfectly tender and juicy. Do yourself a favor and come try this spot. Also, the wonton/rangoon crisps with sweet and sour sauce as a free table appetizer (like Mexican restaurants sometimes do with chips and salsa) was a brilliant move and a very cool idea.Vegetarian options: The have vegetarian and possibly vegan options on the menu. A lot of the dishes can be made using tofu or vegetables rather than the meats.Parking: Large shared parking lot with plenty of space.Wheelchair accessibility: ADA ramps are located just northeast of the building at the curb, and a little ways west as well. Double (french) doors to the establishment allow for wheelchair access easily. The booths may be difficult for wheelchairs but the tables in the center of the establishment should work well.

I discovered this place when I was hunting for a new place to have lunch and scored BIG TIME! I've eaten here about 25 times since I discovered them and have not had a bad experience yet. Everything is always fresh, super tasty and portions are on the generous side...this is NOT a greasy chinese food joint as another reviewer suggested. PLEASE try their Hot and Sour Soup, it's really good! The restaurant is plain and unassuming, but the service is very attentive, especially from BJ. The food is better than any other chinese restaurant we've had in quite a while, and better than any other we've tried locally. However, if you're like me and love spicy food, you won't find it here. I've asked for multiple dishes to be as spicy as they can make it, and they're NOT spicy. They will give you homemade chili garlic sauce to add, but it's not really spicy either. That's my only complaint. I really like this place and am happy to have somewhere good to get take-out so I don't have to cook every day. :)

Tried this restaurant tonight for the first time. Couple of things to note: the restaurant needs deep cleaning, the chairs are sticky, it perhaps needs an update. The service was beyond awful. Every table was full with people waiting, which is great for any business, however there was only one girl serving. She was lovely but the food was cold, delayed and terrible service. Then they must have pulled a gentleman working in the kitchen to help, however he had a filthy white shirt on. The soup was cold, my shrimp and vegetables was nice until I found a black hair in my dinner. I wasn't charged which was kind, but that is not the point. The kung pao beef had no flavor and the restaurant ran out of plates. I love local, non-chain restaurants, however they need to be clean, with a nice ambiance, staffed and with great food. Such a shame!

We ate lunch here yesterday (2/21/24) and enjoyed it very much. The food was fresh and not too overly priced. We had the dumplings, the lunch special beef & broccoli, and chicken with vegetables. The lunch specials came with soup, egg roll, and choice of fried rice, steamed rice, or noodles. We chose the fried rice and it was very good. You get a good portion of food for the price. Service was attentive considering there was only 1 women and a helper for the entire restaurant. Food came out promptly and was hot. The restaurant is small with only 7 booths and some tables. I knocked off 1 star for Zero ambiance and the restroom. It was clean but needed a complete makeover. We will definitely be returning.

Love the food!! Always order the house fried rice! Have been in the restaurant and ordered to go...super nice staff. Definitely best Chinese food in the area.
Stopped by for lunch with my nephew after word of mouth recommendations. Wow, it was more delicious than expected. The lunch prices are extremely reasonable considering how fresh and delicious the food is. This will be my new local go to Chinese restaurant!

The food was like NY Chinese food, DELICIOUS! The egg drop soup with the crispy noodles was fantastic. The crispy noodles with the little bowl of Duck Sauce to dip them in was fantastic. It was hands down the best Chinese food that I have had in CA after moving here from NY in 1985

The food is great and a great value. I went with a friend and we got the dinner for 2 and both enjoyed it. All the food was made with high quality ingredients. The fried rice was excellent. The staff is wonderful. Can't wait to go back.

My sister and I went here and it is the best spot. Our server seated us immediately. The restaurant was clean and elegant. We ordered the 2 person family dinner with soup, orange chicken, fried rice, chow mein, and egg rolls. Food came out quick and everything was delicious and tasted authentic.

I don't usually post reviews, but I feel compelled to do so this time. We got Orange chicken for takeout, and unfortunately, the meat was overly dry. I'm surprised it's being offered as a menu item.
We love their lunch
