I know ... 5 stars for a barebones/takeout Chinese restaurant? Seriously? YES - seriously. First of all, Chinese cuisine is incredibly varied. Szechuan, Hunan, Hakka, Hong Kong, and many others.

The food was good, but the duck sauce, and mustard packets they gave me were very old. Neither one tasted like they were supposed to.

Otherwise everything was good.
