I read all the reviews and have to agree that the food is Ok and would give it at least a 3 Star were it not for the behavior of the female cashier who perhaps has ownership in the business. If she answers the phone when placing an order, or is at the register when I walk in, I usually dont order. The male, whom I believe is also an owner, is much nicer and very flexible when taking an order if the female is not present. I placed an in-store order for two to go which included 2 Vegetable Egg Rolls, and 1 Combo Meal which included Fried Rice, Pork Lo Mein and an Egg Roll. We wanted to share the fried rice, so I asked the female cashier to place the rice in a separate container or side by side with the lo mein in the same container, rather than the Lo Mein on top of the rice. One would have thought by this simple, reasonable request that I had asked her to give me the contents of the cash drawer! She responded in a raised voice "NO"! She would not do that because the combo is cheaper and I should order the rice, lo mein and egg roll separately! In fact we looked at the a la carte section of the menu before placing the order, decided that since we are watching our "carbs", the smaller servings in the combo meal would be enough for us both. Her rantings and pointing at the menu caught the attention of the other patrons and the male manager who had sold me food in the past packaged in the way I was requesting, joined in the protest that they would NOT! honor my request. We politely left the restaurant, and this time I am resolved that I will never return. I have finally had it! This is last time I will be made to feel like I am "trying to get over" on someone by this establishment. As an African American, I am no stranger to this attitude often exhibited by Asian Americans when I patronize their businesses. Until we start boycotting those businesses that treat us in this manner, the attitude of "You need us; therefore, we can disrepect you", will continue. It is no accident, that one will rarely if ever see any race other than their own employed in their restaurants and retail businesses which may account for thier attitude of "us against them" and their lack of diversity. We dont have to accept this behavior. We left there and went to Whole Foods and purchased a much healthier meal and was treated with the dignity and respect a "reasonable" paying customer deserves.

I started coming to this restaurant around March 2017 because I moved to the area. The first few times I ordered and received food, it was always pleasant & the food was hot. Today I ordered like normal, call the restaurant and order a combination plate, am told its 10 minutes and I begin to drive to the location. This time I wasnt advised what the price of the combination plate would be prior to arriving. Upon entering the store and walking to the cashier area I noticed the combination plate price had increased by over $2. I paid for the food anyway and didnt argue because I was tired and hungry. When I got home and opened the bag, there was more rice than chicken and no excess sauce from the sesame chicken in the bottom of the container. I went ahead and ate, but on the inside of a couple pieces of chicken there was horrible discoloration. Needless to say, I didnt eat it all and will have trouble justifying going back.

Portions and prices are reasonable. Service was reasonable. Sauces had good flavor and spicy dishes were actually spicy, but would ask for it to be slightly more spicy in the future. Vegetables were fresh and well cooked. Pork fried rice was fine. Not bad and not amazing. Giving 3 stars because of the chicken in the general tsos. The breading was soggy, and the chicken quality was average to below average. If you are ordering a dish with breaded chicken I would suggest ordering the sauce on the side. The next table did so and they had crispy chicken. They had both a high chair and a booster seat for kids.

Never had their food because every single time Ive tried to order take out they hang up on me. I am always polite and it is always the same lady who answers the phone and ends up hanging up on me. I thought maybe they did not do carry out so I tried saying that I wanted a delivery. She said "we dont do that" AND HUNG UP ON ME. I dont know what I am doing wrong, but because of the great reviews I keep trying to order here. I JUST WANT TO TRY YOUR FOOD WOMAN, LET ME ORDER FROM YOU!!!

Excellent all-around. Their General Tsao chicken is my favorite. Family favorites are beef and snow peas and vegetable lo mein. The hot and sour soup and sweet and sour chicken are both pretty bland, and their weakest offerings, in my opinion. We get China Wok every Christmas Eve for a celebratory feast. Its a fun tradition.

Had the chicken fried rice. Chicken was dark and gummy. Very little veggies. Also had a veggie egg roll. Meh, nothing special. They are very stingy on giving out sweet & sour packets and hot sauce. Youre better off going to a cheap Chinese buffet than ordering from here.

This is a great place for anyone wanting great Chinese take-out! They are quick and efficient with your order (about 10 minutes to prepare), polite, and clean. Cost is reasonable, more than fast food, but less than a sit-down restaurant.

Weve been eating here for 20 years and its great every time. You can eat in, most take out. Fast, good and easy take out. General Tso is especially tasty. They will also do light sauces for those who dont care for dark sauces-Alan

I ordered Sesame chicken for lunch and it was delicious. The food was ready in 15 minutes and was hot when I went to pick it up.

Great Chinese take-out. Entrees are big enough to share/have leftovers and are a reasonable price
