You won't be disappointed!!!! ”
“ The food and service were absolutely amazing! My favorite was had the peppered salt wings and Szechuan chicken! The chicken was cooked to perfection. A good balance of moist and juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. We also loved wonton soup, veggie egg rolls, cheese egg rolls, szechuan chicken, mapo tofu, house string beans, and the golden buns. We love their food so much we've been back multiple times already. ”
“ The food was great and hot! The service was excellent. And the restaurant was comfortable and friendly. ”
“ The best Hot and Sour Chicken Soup in town. My family's favorite. We eat there at least three or four times a month. ”
“ Always tasty, one of the better places for Chinese food in the area. Fast service, too. ”
“ I always see this restaurant and have been wanting to try them. My husband wanted Chinese food for dinner and I suggested this restaurant. We ordered the Sweet & Sour Pork, my husband's usual stand by, I ordered the Twice cooked pork belly, Chicken Kung Pao, and we also got Pork Chow mein. We were very pleased with the food and the portions, all of the food had SOOO much flavor!!! I am normally not the biggest fan of sweet and sour pork but this one was excellent, the pork had a nice crunch to the batter. The twice cooked pork belly was very yummy and had a bacon texture I wasn't expecting. I'm usually pretty picky with Kung Pao, and there's was excellent, the only thing missing for me which I'm used to was peanuts. The chow mein was excellent. We will definitely be returning customers, and I want to also give the dim sum a try. I can't wait to try more of what they have to offer, I'm just sad I haven't tried them sooner. ”
“ I highly recommend coming here! The sichuan chicken was by far my favorite dish I ordered, though everything else was also amazing. It was flavorful, crispy, and the chicken is tender. The restaurant has an ample amount of space and is very clean! It's the perfect place for a lunch date or family gathering. I recommend the eggplant and fish clay pot, the Chinese broccoli with garlic, the beef chow fun and the egg rolls. The food came out quickly! Staff was attentive, friendly and helpful. I will definitely be returning in the future. ”
“ I was craving for the salted fish fried rice and found this restaurant. I placed an order for take out and got it in around 20 mins as the lady said when taking my order. - salted fish & chicken fried rice: the rice was fluffy & good. It had lots of salted fish pieces but need a wee bit of seasoning. The portion was good - salt & pepper fried tofu: the tofu pieces were good & crispy but nothing special. The food was good and I'll try different items next time ”
