We were excited to see a Chinese restaurant, but were apprehensive about the quality of food. The entire time we were there, only one couple ate at the restaurant, so they probably don 't get a lot of business. We were waited on by a teenager whose Spanish was difficult for my daughters to follow, but who didn 't know English. So we did a lot of menu pointing. The waitress wasn 't particularly polite and never smiled. She always yelled at the other people when communicating; maybe that 's how it sounds to us when they speak Chinese. But the food was brought to our table by a gracious owner who was all smiles. And most importantly, THE FOOD WAS GOOD. We liked almost every dish we ordered, especially the sweet and sour fish and the garlic chicken. At the end, the owner came over and gave my daughters token gifts fashion jewelry . That was very sweet of her. Also, the prices were very reasonable as compared to a lot of the rubbish we encountered during our travels. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner. Don 't let first impressions fool you. Give it a chance.

The restaurant was staffed by 3 school kids, the oldest of which was about 14 or 15. All the dishes arrived at once, so by the time you had your starter the rest was cold. The chicken with almonds had a total of 3 almonds, and tasted as if it had been made with gravy powder. Definitely one to avoid.

It'll be 100 years and it'll be as good as it is.
