I have been coming here for years. The food is east coast quality with lots of care in preparation. Their signature dish is the fried rice, wow..best I have tasted anywhere. A prior review indicated it was a bit dry. I believe it is a taste preference. Most fried rice in other restaurants are fairly greasy and moist, but very little soy sauce. Its a matter of preference. The one think is everything is served buffet style, so be there when they open or around dinner. You can always do what I do and order off the menu. They are always willing to prepare food to your specifications. The restaurant is clean and all of the people who work there, including the Master Chef, are extremely polite and customer focused. The decor is very interesting..cool clocks, old pay phone, great paintings and other items (must see). I highly recommend this restaurant..a real jewel.

Theres good reviews for this restaurant, and its been there for years. We went pretty late, around 830pm. There was some food in the ready section. The employees were friendly and they recommended that we order from the menu because there were more options. We picked black bean with chicken and szechuan beef for take out. The prices were typical and reasonable. We got home and the szechuan beef was nicely laid out in the container! Both dishes tasted very good, cooked properly. I would go again!

Not only is the staff friendly and helpful, they make every effort to ensure you have a great dining experience. It starts out with excellent cooking and portions that are more than adequate. In fact, I usually split my 2 item combo and have the second half the next day. It is a family run business and you will see the same friendly familiar faces when you return and you can even friend them on Facebook to get the updates and specials.

Doesnt look like much from the outside, but when you walk in and smell the food, you know its gonna be tasty. I had a three item plate and got an egg roll. The fried rice was a tiny bit dry, but the rest of the food was very delicious. My egg roll was also tasty and Im glad I got that. Staff if friendly and they have an antique Jennings slot machine in the restaurant. Check it our and enjoy.

The name makes this place seem like it wont be anything special. However, one visit should be all that is necessary to change your mind. The food is delicious, they give generous portions, and its relatively inexpensive. My wife, who is very picky about her Asian cuisine, absolutely adores this place. It quickly became our favorite Chinese food in the area.

This place was highly rate so I went there for dinner. The wonton soup was supper salty and the chowmein was subpar. I am of Asian decent and this food is not very good. For 45 dollars for 2 chowmein and a wonton soup I thought the food would be better. Will not be going back.

We got some dishes from here delivered using a 3rd party delivery service. Had a beef, chicken and tofu dishes. All the dishes were delicious. They had added a complimentary box of steamed rice with a note since we had forgotten to order rice. So great service as well

Same idea and menu of Panda Express, but in my opinion much better! Quick and tasty for a not-so-healthy snack
