With normal lunch specials being $4.95 including a generously size entree and a good helping of rice, its hard to beat the restaurant nicknamed by co-workers as "Cheap Chinese". However, dont let the name fool you, the food is cheap in cost, but is very good. And a new menu boasting a new "House Special" that includes Chicken Chow Mein, Pork Fried Rice, an Eggroll, and fortune cookie for $3.21 out the door, it makes it difficult to even think of spending $7+ at Panda Express when you can get fresh Chinese food for this price. Although the owners dont speak fluent English and have yet to recognize us after coming a couple times a week for the last 2 months straight, they are nice people and appear to be there to do one thing, make great Chinese food. Definitely a top pick for lunch spots.

Rude people! This place is about 2 min to my home, for a long time I tried to put up with their attitude since I like Chinese food. Last night I ordered the food on the phone, when I stopped to pick up my order the lady literally throw the food at me. If you don’t like your job do something else but you can’t be rude to people. If you decided to go to this place you should know: 1. They are rude, especially on the phone. Never expect any polite word… No “Hello” no “Goodbye” and forget about “thank you”! 2. The food quality use to be OKAY but now……. YUCK!!!! The beef is just fat you will end up throw out half of your food. 3. They increased the price and decreased the food quality!!! Never go back!

In my opinion chinese food is is supposed to be oily and greasy. Key word in fried rice is "fried". Chow Mein is noodles fried in oil and it goes straight from the pan to your plate so of course the oil will be in your plate. One of the best greasy oily chinese places in town. Open kitchen so you can see your food being cooked. House chow mein is awesome with all kinds of veggies shrimp beef and pork. I was really impressed with the Wor wonton soup, it was loaded up with zuccini, carrots, sno peas, broccoli, mushrooms, baby corn, water chestnuts, shrimp, chicken, beef, and won tons. it was cheap too for like 5.95. Really like the honey garlic chicken too.

Sweet and sour chicken waa dry, no wonder they smothered it in sweet and sour sauce. It tastes like it had been cooked this morning and refried. Chicken chow mein also dry and came out of a vat also clearly cooled this morning. Not fresh at all. Prices were good and if the food had been fresh would have been good. People running the place are rude and difficult. Wont be going back.

One word BEST describes this place.........YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The food smells bad and is greasy and oiley! NEVER AGAIN! Sad to say I would have to give up on my favorite food (Chinese) if this were the last Chinese restaurant in the world. If I could I would not give this place one star, I would give it an absolute ZERO! NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN! BAD!

Called to place a to go order. The man on the phone was incredibly rude and when I asked what the choices were for their combination plate the man hung up on me. If they dont care how they portray their store over the phone Im certain they dont care about how they treat your food. Would never eat here.

Surprisingly enough... this place was excellent. Looks like a hole in the wall, but the food was fantastic. Huge portions, great price. Ive had Chinese food in sit-down restaurants that werent this good.

Cheap prices and decent size. Entrees were decent but the chowmein was horrible. I guess I dont like the noodles it was pretty much pad Thai noodles but for chowmein and it had no flavor to it.

Crab rangoons were good but everything else was awful. Sweet and sour pork, chow mein, and chicken vegetable tasted like fish. Old oil? Could barely stand the smell of the place too.

Food is over cooked and really greasy. Cheap and yucky. Id rather pay more for great food somewhere else than pay a few dollars for yucky food! ! ! The owners are kinda rude and pushy.

I have never been a big fan of chinese food, but I seem to keep coming back to this one because their food is SO good. This is literally the ONLY Chinese takeout I will ever go to! :)

Fantastic on a budget. Food is actually very good, and prices are incredibly affordable. House special, chicken chow mein, fried rice and an egg roll for $3? Yes please

It is probably not the most healthiest food you will have. Food is good and prices are better.
