The food isn’t very good. The only thing I enjoy are the crab Rangoon’s. I ordered the fried wings and they still had feathers, that may not bother others but it completely threw my appetite off. I called the store to ask about the feathers and they said that’s how the chicken comes to them so they just cook it. they told me there was nothing they could do about it and offered no alternative solution and showed no interest in customer satisfaction.GOODLUCK with this place ?

This is the so call food establishment that couldn 't make a decent meal even if they had Him holding their hand in the kitchen. The chicken was chewy with no flavor, the rangoon 's are the only reason I didn 't ask for my money back outta all the basic things that we ordered. if you 're considering a Chinese restaurant to pick don 't be fooled by these false pictures, it DID NOT look like that.

The food was decent. It was better in the past, but it is still satisfactory.

Long Honest Review: I would like to give this restaurant 5 stars, but there were a couple of things that held me back. We ordered four dishes - two soups, two crab rangoons, two egg rolls, and a Pepsi. Everything was delicious, except for my husband's sesame chicken. It was tough and chewy, and tasted like it had been left out or was old. Additionally, there were no green onions in the soup, which was a bit disappointing as I thought egg drop soup always came with them. On the positive side, the lady who greeted us was extremely polite and provided excellent customer service. It's rare to come across such exceptional service, and she truly went above and beyond for us. If my husband's dish hadn't been overcooked and if there were green onions in the soup, they would have definitely earned 5 stars. I will still return to this restaurant, but I'll make sure to have some green onions on hand just in case. As for my husband, he may not be as keen on returning. Overall, everything else was great! Parking is easy as it's located in a plaza with plenty of parking spaces available.
