This place can be real hit or miss. I've ordered from here a few times and it was good and then there has been other times I've order from here and I had food poisioning which led me not to eat from here. Like I stated before this place is real hit or miss.

This is an incredibly affordable place for a quick lunch to go. The quality of the food itself is a bit iffy (see fried rice comments below), but some of the items were still very good. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I think I only waited 5 minutes from when I ordered to when the food was ready to take away, so that's pretty amazing! I ordered: Lunch special ($11.45) - The price alone here is incredible. You get a good variety of food and a good amount as well for what feels like pre-pandemic prices. I've seen a lot of lunch specials being raised to more than $15 or so recently, so the fact that this one is only $11.45 is a great deal. It also came in a tupperware with a big section and a small section, and I would have expected the rice to go in the big section and the main to go in the smaller one, but they did the opposite - so you get a really large and nice portion of your main course! The actual food I got was: Crab rangoons - These were nicely fried and the filling had noticeable pieces of imitation crab in it. I also liked the savory flavor, as some places make their filling sweeter, but this was more on the savory and salty side. Very nice crab rangoon. Pork fried rice - This was the iffy one. The flavor was on point, but the rice itself was hard and felt undercooked. It wasn't inedible, but it was definitely noticeable, though covering it in the lobster sauce made up for it. If I had ordered the fried rice alone without a sauce, I would have been pretty disappointed. Shrimp with lobster sauce - This came with 4 shrimps which is pretty standard, but it was an above average lobster sauce in my opinion. It was nice and gooey, salty, and savory, and the shrimp was very meaty. This was definitely the star of the lunch, and I had some leftover to eat with white rice for my next meal! All in all, I'd definitely come back - the price along is a great deal, and I'd like to see if the fried rice would be better on a second time around. The appetizer and main were great tasting, and the service was incredibly fast and friendly. 4/5 stars - I'd absolutely have this again!

Terrible! I ordered pork fried rice and it was stale and hard as if they left the rice out for hours or it was made from the previous night. Then I ordered chicken chow mein and it was way different from I have had before. I called them to let them know about the rice and all dude said was he will let the chef know. A waste of $15. I was better of going to dragon star on Washington st. SMH

I was there yesterday ordered two dishes and was charged more than 20% over the menu price. They said the price went up but they could not provide me with the new manual or give me itemized receipt. The quality and quantity of the food are terrible. You can spend less money getting better and more food in any other Chinese restaurant. Doooooooo not waste your money there. Also save yourself a lot of frustration. The worst experience I have ever had. Terrible terrible terrible!!!!!

I got a tid-bits platter and nothing seemed to have much taste. Normally I love wings and chicken fingers, but I could not get excited about these. I threw out the leftovers. I also tried a piece of boneless sparerib, tasteless. The egg roll was pretty good. I would not order again.

I ordered food. We live nearby. The delivery person couldn't find our address, which is hard to believe. Had to walk up and retrieve our food, all of which was cold. We were charged a delivery fee, something that never happened. It was an overall most unpleasant experience. I will never order from this place again.

I don't think it's a coincidence that many reviews talk about food poisoning.Today it happened to me, my brother and my dad. We ordered different dishes and now we all have gastritis.I don't know what it will be, but the quality of this food is terrible.Be careful ⚠️ with food poisoning!
