ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. This restaurant advertises being open at 11am. We are from out of town, ordered lunch online at 12:00pm. After TWO HOURS waiting in our hotel room, the charge being PROCESSED on my credit card and SEVERAL unanswered calls to the resultant we finally drove to the location to see what on earth could be taking so long. It was DARK AND LOCKED. Door hours say 11:00am-10:00pm! Some homeless guy sitting outside said, and I quote, "They are never here. They come when they want. They wont even arrive till after 5 I bet." We wasted THREE hours of our limited time here because of this ordeal. I now have to wait for my refund of money. When I called later all they could say was "Yeah.... Yeah.... we canceled it. We canceled." NO APOLOGY. NO EXPLINATION. Rude staff. Absolutely unacceptable ordeal. Id never recommend this place. Besides, the nice homeless man said theres a better place right up the street anyways. Thanks man.

The egg drop soup was amazing, but that was it. I ordered fried pork with pineapple, and thai shrimp fried rice, along with the egg drop soup. What I got was cold, mushy, pork that was fried but I dont think it was the right dish as there wasnt one piece of pineapple in it. I did not get thai shrimp fried rice with my order, but plain white rice NOT what I ordered. They did not put any napkins, plastic ware, or anything extra into the bag that usually comes with Chinese delivery. This was NOT worth my money at all and I wont order from here again. I ordered online so there should not have been any miscommunications with what I ordered. So I dont know why they didnt give me that.

We came in on a Sunday afternoon searching for bubble tea after our quest had hit some unexpected dead ends. The place is similar to the spot before - janky and smelling of old Chinese food. They do milk tea here rather than true bubble tea, but it was a nice silver medal. There were 6 or so flavors, of which we chose Strawberry. The tapioca balls were nice and at least provided some of the experience we were looking for. Judging by the grime, this place may be a decent Chinese spot. Bottom line - Decent milk tea and the only place in IC with it at 4 pm on a Saturday.

Hello folks just ordered food from here at 6:03 pm. It took 1 hr and 50 minutes for my food to arrive. Of course when it arrived it was cold. Moreover, the quality so poor I have reordered from another restaurant the same exact order. Just an awful experience. Do yourself a favor and just order from another place. Really not worth the risk

Out of all the Chinese places in Iowa City, this is the best. The decor isnt very great, but you can always over look this for the excellent food that follows. The waiter is a little timid, but always does his best to make your stay enjoyable. My sister and I absolutely love it here.

Ordering was easy and it was delivered super quick. Really delicious food. Its not your average cheap Chinese food. The veggies were fresh and crunchy and the beef is actual beef instead if the normal beef flavored rubber. Well definitely be ordering again soon.

Walked home with my food finding that they barely gave me rice, not good for an Asian restaurant. Food was okay at best. I wouldnt recommend this place unless there is nowhere else to eat. Food isnt worth the money I paid for.

Food is very authentic. You find the traditional Chinese foods you would find at any other Chinese restaurant but if you can or know someone who speaks Chinese then you can eat some more exotic meals.

Well they messed up our delivery order. The delivery guy just sat out in his car and didnt bother to ring the door bell. After waiting over an hour our order should not have been wrong.

First off, I dined in. There are two different menus, the typical American Chinese food, and the actual Chinese food menu. Order from the Chinese food menu, you will not regret it.

Terrible attitude, different meal was delivered with no rice, didnt even bring cash and receipt with him. Just terrible, will never order again.

Food poisoning? Charging us extra on our bill for no reason? Yes.
