not sure what these people are complaining about, I got the szechaun special and it was delicious. they definitely aren't stingy with meat, plenty of it. and the sauce was perfect and flavorful and made the whole dish nice and saucy. the portion size is perfect, I still have leftover, it's very filling. I really recommend this place

Went for the 2nd time today. Got the curry fried rice, very flavorful and full of meat. Daughter got Szechuan Delight also great and full of meat!Very reasonable prices too!

This is our favorite Chinese restaurant. Try to stop whenever we are back in Rockford.

I used to frequent this restaurant years ago and was interested to try again in search of good Chinese in the area. I would have given 3 (generous) stars for the food as it’s no better or worse than I’ve had recently. They used to have the best crab Rangoon but now it’s basically fried dough with a literal teaspoon of crab mixture- honestly would have rather had four of the free fortune cookies to eat. The fact that my order total was $14.77 on my email receipt but was asked for $15.20 at the counter, couple with the REQUIRED tip input for online ordering removes an entire star. (I’ll die on that hill). Bottom line- I won’t be back.

General two's chicken is over cooked then it drys out the chicken. The sauce on top didn't help the dryness. The crab Rangoon are over cooked. They need a new cook.

First time trying this place out. Placed an order online for pickup. Food was hot and ready for pickup within about 15 minutes of ordering. Prices were reasonable for Chinese Takeout.Dishes:Kung Pao Beef - Really good, flavorful and had a nice spicy kick to it. Would order this again, for sure.Combination Fried Rice - Pretty good, but thought the portion size would have been a little bit larger for a Family size order.Sesame Chicken - This one was a disappointment. Although the sauce was sweet and tangy, the pieces of food were a big disappointment. It was mostly just fried breading like hush puppies. I'd say about a third of the pieces in the dish did not contain any noticeable chicken and were just breading. The ones that did have chicken, had a very tiny piece of chicken in the center (maybe about the size of a peanut or so.) Won't be getting this one again.

My first time in this place and the person taking my order was rushing me. Things were a little different than in other places I have gone to. Plus, I ordered War Wonton soup, and when I got home, I had Won ton only. Won ton tasted raw. I got sick afterward. My husband ordered sweet and sour pork, I never saw sweet and sour pork like this.

Nice people. Good food

The Mongolian beef was a bit too sweet. Also way too many onions. Calling it Mongolian onions would have been more accurate. I love onions so it's not a huge deal, but I would have liked more meat. The shrimp fried rice that came with it had 4 shrimp... I counted.Something was off about the fried rice as well. It's hard to say, but it may have been reheated.
