I will never buy anything from this restaurant again. It's a total rip-off. Always make sure to double-check your receipt and count your money before paying.

This is the worst food I have ever had. The soup base tasted like dirty water with no seasoning at all. The one wonton I received was doughy and tasted raw. I will never try the deli next door again.

The restaurant may look like a hole in the wall, but the food is amazing. They still include the pineapple in the sweet and sour chicken, which is a nice touch that other places have stopped doing. There was a constant flow of customers coming in and out during my experience there.
