I've been going here for 24 years and they haven't disappointed yet. They have a unique flavor compared to other Chinese fast food which makes them stand out. I hope to have my kids eat here in the future. Thanks you for the memories!

We went here and I had got egg drop soup , Shrimp and Chinese vegetables and chicken fried rice all is well very delicious and hot. The soup was extraordinary and I love that they put shredded pork in their wonton soup that makes all the difference to me. I recommend highly.

Best Chinese food in town! The egg rolls are excellent. And they give a lot of food for your money.

A fellow Veteran recommended I try the Mongolian beef... he and his wife said it’s their favorite Chinese restaurant. I went the very next day and didn’t see it on their menu...it’s listed on the wall. Very tasty! I’ll definitely buy it again. It was scallions and beef strips in a flavorful sauce...a little spicy and slightly sweet. Just right. I look forward to trying their lo mein and also their beef and broccoli because another customer in the restaurant said he orders them all the time and this restaurant is his favorite as well.

The food is delicious, the rice and lo mein are always full with meats and / or vegetables usually the other shops short you with the filling but not here, great prices and good service
