When it comes to Chinese Im the type of person that likes to experiment with the different Chinese restaurants in the area. I decided to try this location and have nothing positive to say. The chicken tasted raw, chewy by too much breading, and undercooked. It didnt taste like chicken and didnt have the proper texture of what properly breaded sea same chicken should taste like. The rice was just as bad. When I was tasting the chicken I got this weird after taste of spoiled fish/whatever the hell I was eating. In the middle of swallowing the chicken I had a natural response to gag but managed to keep it down. This is honestly the second restaurant i have ever reviewed because of how unsatisfied I was. The customer service is awful too, they need to have someone that can communicate fluently and have manners. There are other Chinese restaurants in the same zip code area that are wayy better. Dont order from here, its not a coincidence that the people who wrote reviews on here had a similar experience.

The experience was perfect, from the moment I called. They immediately identified my address from my telephone number. They did not make me repeat what I ordered or anything else I said. The deliverer was courteous and smiling, and the food... well!!! the best Chinese food weve both ever had delivered. It was hot to start with!, when we called, they recommended we try their pan fried dumplings and we are so happy we got them... they were unique with a delicious dipping sauce, the sczewan shrimp were plump, juicy, and huge with a fantastic sauce. We ordered fried rice with veggies, and there were large chunks of brocolli, Chinese veggies, and more. The chicken lo mein matches the best we ever had. The pricing was low and the portions were abundant. All in all, do not pass the opportunity to try this business.

The best part about it is its next to BJs. Other than that... Horrible customer service. The lady at the front played Diamond Crush while I stared on in utter disbelief. Never said one word to me other than the price. Then assumed I was having my food to go and bagged it. After I said Id done with them she all but rolled her eyes. I asked for condiments and was given one. No napkins. Finally I sit to eat. Foods awful. Worst Ive eaten. Too many Brussels and onions in my rice. And wings had more hair than I do. Smh. If I wasnt a God-fearing Christian and father of four I would be tempted to go inside of the mens room and pee on the floor. Lol... Just joking about peeing however I am pissed off!

Theres a good handful of "Chinese" restaurants in this area, but this is the best by far, at least for takeout. Theyre quick, cheaper then most, and the food is absolutely divine. The staff is friendly, so Im sure that sitdown service would be just as good, although there isnt much seating area. Hardly anyone seems to do sitdown here, though the takeaway seating area almost always has someone else there besides me. I *think* they deliver, but Im not sure ; they do allow you to call ahead, and last I checked they didnt require a creditcard to confirm ( good when youre driving and dont want to pull over to get the card out! )

This place was great once but the last two times were disappointing. Because of rain it took 1 hour, 35 minutes to arrive. I think they made this general tsos last week. The chicken was non existent, stringy and completely absorbed all of the sauce. The sauce was also extremely spicy, which I usually like but this was inedible. About three Weeks ago I tried their chicken with garlic sauce and was also extremely spicy. it looked good and had lots of veggies but the cayenne was ridiculous! Not ordering again.

I did not finish my food, and I was pretty hungry. The "chicken" was mostly soggy breading, and the egg drop soup was like jello. Even the rice was questionable. These are my favorite items to order at chinese takeout restaurants, but I will NEVER come back here. I cant believe these 5-star ratings on here, there are obviously a good number of people who feel the same way I do.

Literally the most repulsive Chinese Ive ever had the displeasure of consuming. I know that it sounds stereotypical to say that I think that they served me cat meat, but whatever it was, it most certainly wasnt chicken. The meat was dark and tasted like rancid shrimp. Waste of $6. The lady at the register was nice, but nowhere near worth justifying this disgusting meal.

We went in and to not offend the lady we stayed and ordered an eggroll which I ordered because I know its not made instore. If you are not busy and you are just sitting in the front watching your children, why not clean the tables? They were sticky!!! invest your time in your business so that people will want to come back? huh? HUH? SMH!

Honestly the worst Chinese food Ive ever had. I had to throw most of it away. Delivery took over an hour. The sesame chicken was chewy and tasted like old fish. The crab rangoons tasted like straight cream cheese. The only thing that was half decent about it all was the homemade iced tea. Will definitely not be ordering from them again.

Love this place. After trying out several Chinese restaurants, when I moved to Orlando, that were misses I finally found a hit. I order here all the time and I have never been disappointed. Service is fast, even the delivery is fast. The prices are decent, but sometimes my boyfriend and I can get a little carried away and spend over $30.

I have been eating at this Chinese restaurant for the past 10 years. I am so confused how anyone could possibly say the food is "horrible" .... By far best place to eat in Orlando. I do recommend this place to everyone and since moving out of delivery range I still make the drive to pick up. Great service. Great food. Period.

Seriously some of the most DISGUSTING Chinese food Ive ever had. My roommate ended up with undercooked chicken, and my chicken was extremely soggy and gross! I cannot believe this place is still open. The food is horrible. Ive had my fair share of mediocre Chinese take outs, but this one by far takes the cake for worst ever.

The price is typical for this type of establishment. The food was rather tasty, and in a decent quantity. But, they paid NO attention to the special notes left for them to follow when ordering online; and, their packaging was horrible. The containers were smashed, and leaked all over each other.

This is our go-to place for delivery. Food is great 9 out of 10 times. Once in a while the Orange Beef is not crispy, or the shrimp are not totally fresh tasting. Love the House Egg Foo Yung, Beef on a Stick, Hot and Sour Soup, Crab Rangoon, to name a few we frequently order.
