4.2 / 5 (2037 reviews)

Description

Recent reviews for this long-standing Chinese restaurant indicate a significant decline in food quality and service since new ownership took over. Many loyal customers were disappointed by bland, flavorless dishes, high prices for small portions, and a limited menu. Some felt that the food was comparable to Safeway deli items. However, a few customers found the new menu and recipes under the new management to be an improvement, with better quality ingredients and complex flavors. Overall, while some were pleasantly surprised by the food and service, the general consensus is that this restaurant has not lived up to its former reputation.

Used to love this place until new management. Now the food does not taste good at all and we will not be going back.

This was my favorite restraunt. I’d come weekly. I heard it was under new ownership so I went to try it out. The food is completely disgusting. Very sad to see it fall from where it once was. The steamed rice was the shining star of the meal.

Well I usually don't say pause anything positive when I get two stars but the architecture in this place is insane I mean looks like they spent a lot of money on this thing. Anyway I have barbecued pork fried rice and the only reason why I gave him two stars is that there was a lot of pork in it the pork was the only part that was semi edible. Yeah I would definitely avoid fried rice here. So I don't know about the other dishes I might try a beef one next time but you know I'm not going to dash back to this place right away and I thought it was Uber expensive. But I'm real puzzled about is that they don't read the reviews either so they're not even paying attention to you know Google which is really a mistake. I just don't know how to get a 4.6 rating that's really high that means you're you're supposedly doing a lot better than they are I mean this place is I mean I could see maybe it's getting a free sometimes but you know 4.6 is a lot that means that they're getting a lot of five s.

Their food is always really good. Mike the manager is very nice. Him and his staff are very friendly and attentive. They make sure you get what you want fast.
