If you're in the mood for some tasty Chinese food, you won't want to miss out on this local restaurant! The menu has a wide range of options, from classic dishes like General Tso's chicken to more unique offerings like Mongolian beef. And the portions are really generous, so you'll definitely get your money's worth. The atmosphere is nice and casual, making it a great spot for a casual lunch or dinner. And the staff are all really friendly and accommodating, making sure you have a great dining experience. But what really stands out about this Chinese place is the quality of the food. You can tell that they use fresh ingredients and cook everything to order. And everything is always really flavorful and satisfying. Another great thing about this restaurant is that they have a lot of vegetarian and gluten-free options. It's nice to have so many choices if you have dietary restrictions. Overall, I would definitely recommend this Chinese place to anyone looking for some delicious and authentic food. The menu is diverse, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the quality of the food is top-notch. Give it a try and see for yourself!

Get the Hunan Chicken! I loved everything about the dish and our server shared with us that we could get the marinated black beans at the Chinese market down the strip mall. I wish I lived closer to go here every week.

Great authentic Chinese cuisine. You have to try this Lo Mein, it's delicious. Price is fair, service is fast.

Ordered take out & the woman who checked me out was very friendly. Even gave me a calendar for the new year! Love their coconut chicken & ma la chicken. It is a small shop, but the food is quality!

Cheap food, good taste. Decent variety. Authentic Chinese food. Very economical. Good for groups and family visit. Get reservations as place gets crowded during peak hours. Not much of an ambience. Less parking
