Food was ok, portions were good, price was ridiculous.They have the basic, low-end Asian food. General Tso, sesame chicken, orange chicken, etc... None of it tastes bad, it's just that they have basic LeeAnn Chin food with P.F. Changs prices.Service and atmosphere isn't one of my big concerns, but it was also subpar. Dingy carpet, sticky tables...etc. There was a young guy running the register that was clearly more interested in his phone than he was with customers.My Order:Sesame Chicken w/white riceAnother Sesame Chicken w/noodlesAnd cream cheese wontons$42.00 !?!?!?!?Compared the SAME order to 4 different places (Leeann Chin, Panda Express, Panda Garden, and Hip Sing's in BC).... neither exceeded $30

It was pretty alright. Lo mein was good. Everything was decent. Was I blown away by a unique flavor experience? No. Was it edible, and filling?

Ordered about $100 worth of food, and was not disappointed. Orange Chicken and Beef Lo Mein were great. Will be back to hopefully get good food again.

My husband and I decided to give this place a try, since all our favorite takeout places were unavailable at the time. He got the Mongolian beef, while I ordered the chicken almond ding. Both were delicious! We both loved the food so much that we'll be adding this place to our takeout list from now on.

Covid has been over for a whole year. Tell me why they don’t let ppl dine in. You should t have a restaurant if you’re scared of every virus. Wouldn’t want to eat in anyway because their restaurants is filthy. Wouldn’t suggest going here no matter how good the food is.

Quick service and always still hot when I get it home. Love this place for take out.
Great food, friendly service. We have been going here for years. Food is always hot and ready when we arrive for pickup and the portions are large.

If Circle Pines had a ghetto this would be in the middle of it. The restaurant itself is dirty and beat up. The glass on the doors looked like they haven't been clean in 10 years. The inside is just as bad, where the cash register is, is surrounded by broken plexiglass. Why? Just get rid of the plexiglass. This place was gross to say the least. The food, well it was slightly better than the building, but still gross. We ordered Chicken fried rice, wontons, spring rolls, chow mein, Chicken with snow pea pods and Vietnamese egg rolls. Chicken fried rice was below average, wontons were good, but tasted like they were from a supermarket. The spring rolls were terrible, and also from a supermarket. Chow mein, well that was worse than the spring rolls. Chicken snow pea thing was below average and not much flavor. Vietnamese egg rolls were probably the best thing, but my girlfriend didnt like them at all. The egg rolls had a good flavor and had the right amount of crispness to them, but they did have a greasy taste to them, but overall I thought they were decent. We spent $70 on food and threw away $55 of that food. This place was unfortunately disgusting all around, oh and the service sucked too.

Ordered from here because it was the closest thing with egg foo young (bf’s favorite). Got home and no egg foo young in my bag. Got a weird brown sauce, sweet and sour for the wontons (greasy and almost no cream cheese at all, what was there was hard), and I ordered pan fried noodles with beef, got a hard ball of over cooked noodles and a side of some type of veggie pork stir fry. Neither had any flavor at all. Fried rice compares to food court fried rice. Yellow, with frozen veggies, and zero taste. Haven’t even tried the eggs rolls, my stomach is turned from everything else. Spent $40 on food and it was awful. They offered to remake or credit me for my egg foo young but we won’t be back. We don’t live close enough to justify the gas to get there. Will definitely order elsewhere.

We have been on the hunt for a good Chinese takeout place in the Lino area ever since Asian to Go in Centerville changed owners and wasn’t good anymore.We ordered from Apple Garden tonight.The search continues.The food was bland and seemed like it was steamed as opposed to stir fried.
Classic foods pretty tasty & good
