Terrific Chinese Takeout Restaurant! Great food at reasonable prices. Call ahead for fast service. They also deliver. Very hard-working staff that operate like a well oiled machine when busy.

Affordable and tasty takeout. There’s a small counter with a few stools, but it’s best suited for a quick lunch rather than a sit-down meal. The dishes are typical of a suburban Chinese restaurant—reliable and without any disappointments.

I only order takeout, but honestly, who cares? I bring food from here all the way to Cape Cod because their Chinese food is fantastic! Their Orange Beef is so delicious, you’ll be dreaming about it long after you’ve eaten. They also have a noodle dish loaded with shrimp, chicken, every vegetable imaginable, and a savory sauce—I just wish I could remember the name, but it’s a chef’s special. Everything they make is amazing... definitely go and dig in!

This quaint takeout Chinese restaurant has a window where diners can observe the kitchen in action. I've been getting takeout from here for years whenever I'm in the neighborhood. Recently, I ordered a few dishes: Egg Rolls, Beef Teriyaki, and Chicken Wings. The Chicken Wings used to be one of my favorites, but this time they were just okay, lacking some of the rich flavor they once had. The Egg Rolls were quite tasty, not made with a celery base, yet they still had a pleasant flavor. Unfortunately, the Beef Teriyaki was a disappointment; it looked gray and had a mushy coating that was overwhelmingly vinegary. I couldn’t even bring myself to eat it, which is rare for me since I really dislike wasting money.

The best boneless ribs in Metrowest! Every other dish is also fresh and delicious. I've been driving 30 minutes to enjoy meals here for over 25 years!
