Description

Once celebrated as Dedham’s premier Chinese dining spot, this restaurant now divides patrons sharply. Longtime fans praise its friendly staff, varied menu, and reliably delicious food with fair prices. Many have enjoyed years of weekly orders without disappointment, highlighting fresh dishes and speedy delivery. However, recent changes under new ownership have sparked frustration—shrinking portions, altered recipes, and inconsistent spice levels leave some customers disheartened. Serious service lapses, including last-minute holiday order cancellations and poor communication, have further tarnished its reputation. While many still recommend it for quality and value, caution is advised amid mixed experiences and noticeable decline.

The spare ribs and lo mein was good but I was not expecting the wings to be like this. It’s not even cooked all the way. $24 down the drain

I really love this restaurant! They have great vegetarian options, and the lo mein is absolutely delicious!

My family has been ordering Christmas Eve dinner for the past 15 years from this establishment. Today we went to check on our multiple hundred dollar order that was expected to be picked up in a few hours and was ordered a couple days in advance and we were told they had decided to cancel it due to their business being short staffed. Along with the stress of a cancelation on a major holiday that they had plenty of time to plan for they never informed us leaving our family the possibility of no chance to order elsewhere. I am appalled by the attitude of the employee I spoke to and the disrespect this establishment showed my family. I will never return here and I would advise others not to as well.

The chicken is nearly as good as my homemade version!

My family and I have been going to here for many years, the food is always amazing and the staff is super nice and friendly. It’s a family owned business and they make sure to only give quality food and the prices are incredible.
