General Tso’s chicken is honestly some of the best I’ve ever had. Fried rice also isn’t that fake yellow rice you get from most Chinese restaurants nowadays but could use a little bit of flavor. Highly recommend for good Chinese takeout!
Got take out. Beef lomein, general tso chicken extra spicy and egg rolls. Everything delicious
I ordered Orange Chicken. Food was good. Ill be back. . The only minus is it felt like they were not much into waitressing. I had to ask if I could sit down. When I was done no one checked on me. I wanted to carry my leftovers w me. I had to basically ask for her attention. They could improve on this otherwise was good. I saw not many there for a Saturday. It should be full!
Food was delicious. We came across this place searching for lunch while out and about and were pleasantly surprised. The pork chow mein was so good and my hisband had curried chicken. He said was very good. So much food , we took our leftovers with us! We will be back!
In town visiting family and was stunned by how good this food is. Seriously it’s fantastic
I was here a few times for lunch this month. The food was delicious and served very quickly. There is not a ton of seating as most people get their food to go.
