Description

This neighborhood Chinese spot earns praise for quick, friendly service, reasonable prices and dependable takeout, with standouts like cashew chicken, triple delight and steamed vegetable dumplings. Regulars appreciate hot, fresh plates, attentive servers and a quiet, family-friendly dining room. However, the kitchen can be inconsistent: bland or oddly colored soups, scant or incorrect Crab Rangoon, undercooked vegetables, occasional stale cookies and worn furnishings temper otherwise warm hospitality.

I recently went to this restaurant for lunch with my husband. The service was quick and friendly, but unfortunately, the food didn't meet our expectations. The egg drop soup was bland and tasted more like eggs in water than a proper broth. The Crab Rangoon had barely any cream cheese and no crab at all. The fried rice we received was lacking in vegetables, and my husband's vegetables were warm but still raw in his dish. To make matters worse, we were served stale fortune cookies at the end of our meal. I would give it one star, but the waitress was attentive. We won't be returning.

This is by far the worst Chinese food I've ever experienced. The only reason I gave it one star is that there isn't an option for zero.

The entrees were good, but the crab Rangoon and other dishes were lacking. This restaurant used to be great, but it has really declined. The egg drop soup had a pink color due to something added, but it lacked both flavor and richness. Overall, the furnishings are quite worn as well.

Portions are very small for the price and the egg drop soup is a pink shade and when asked why they put red dye in it!!!!

A must try for take out or dine in. Service is fast and friendly. I have frequented this restaurant for many years and never had a bad meal. My favorites are the triple delight, honey chicken, and lo mien, however, it is all good! Food is fresh and hot every time I pick it up. Nice atmosphere for dine in, very quiet!
