I ordered a late night meal and purchased the Crispy Pan Fried Noodle with Beef, Crab Rangoon, Pot Stickers, and Chicken & Shrimp Eggrolls. The main dish was good, but the pot stickers and crab rangoon were some of the worst Ive ever had. The pot stickers were not thin wonton wrappers like one would expect, but thick and rubbery, the thickest part about a half and inch thick. They were also not sauteed in a pan to get that crispy texture but seemed steamed like a dumpling. The rangoon wrapper was hard at the tips and chewy at the bottom instead of crisp and crunchy all around. They seemed frozen and fried in a deep fryer and by the time they got to me they were luke warm. The delivery person didnt offer me change for the 30 dollars I gave her for my 22 dollar meal and instead said thanks and ran back to her car. I wont be ordering from them again. On top of it all, Ive been sick three times the morning after ordering.

I would eat from this place once or twice a month. To give me a chance to relax after travelling back and forth between north texas and Houston, for chemo. At first the food was super yummy and my daughter and I loved it. BUT the last 3 times I ordered food, it was horrible. As soon as the bag was opened at home, this terrible smell would hit my kitchen. How long was the food sitting around? I would order the chicken and broccoli, hunan chicken or fried rice for myself. And chicken lo mein for her. As soon as the lo mein got in, I served her some and put it into the fridge. The next day, the food was sour and spoiled. I couldnt stomach to think how they handle the food in the kitchen, to where it would smell sour the day it was supposedly cooked. I dont trust this place anymore and I now have it saved with Avoid next to its name. Im not risking food poisoning because they want to reheat seemingly days cooked food!

Clean quick service but not the authentic Chinese I was expecting. Hot and sour soup lacked depth, more clear broth umami with a very light brown tint. Tasted hot and sour but again lacked depth. Kung pow chicken was stir fried but had a watery sauce with half inch diced green, red peppers and zucchini. There about 8-10 peanuts in the whole dish so a little lite. Lacked the peanut stir fry character that is typical for the dish. Seems they used chili paste rather thsn frying the Szechuan peppers too dark Amber for heat. Mostly Likey the reason for the lack of flavor. Overall it is a typical Americanized Chinese food place. If Your looking for quick and ok this is the place for you.

Delivery guy was fast and kind, brought in my packages from ups for me, and food was delivered quickly. Thats where the positives end. Think of all grease in food at the state fair, with none of the taste and twice the stomach ache. I ate mostly rice, because the honey chicken was soooo coated and caked in layers of what can only be described as liquid donuts and deep fried and not drained in the slightest. Gross! There was 3-4 half a nuggets of chicken, buried underneath all the fried mush. Do NOT waste your money - order from anywhere else!

Food is pretty good, really really could improve customer service, and maybe hang some fly catchers on the side of the curtains. Something really needs to be done about the flies. You are waving off flies the whole time youre sitting there. I really want to come back for the duck because of the way the server carved & served but because the fly problem if I go again will probably gets to go order

No so great. Like other reviews have said, the egg rolls are good. Pretty flavorless main dishes. I got the pork fried rice, rolls, and shrimp with garlic sauce. Ordered the identical from another place, and it was slightly better than TG. Theres nothing good for delivery in/around Frisco that compares to San Francisco or the South Loop in Chicago.

I would not rate it highly. Seemed clean. The mostly counter service and self serve nature is OK, but the attitude was a little hurried and lacking warmth. The flavor of the combination fried rice was was pretty good and the prices a little on the higher side given the casual nature. Not a great value, but adequate.

Im a a frequent customer here. The food always tastes fresh made and delicious. Quick and courteous service. Huge portions for the price. I have yet to go home and not have left overs. Surprised this place isnt busier. I think a lot of people pass by it without seeing it. Definitely worth a stop in, or delivery!

Fantastic food! I work 2 minutes away and order (to go) from here all the time. Food is ready in 15min or less. It is always fresh (veggies are crisp and noodles not soggy) and the portions are so HUGE that theres always enough for leftovers. Definately the best Chinese restaurant in Frisco!!!

I love the food!!! Servers are very friendly, and the food is super fresh!! Few of my favorite are the Spicy Korean Beef, General Tsaos Chicken, and Clear Beef Noodle Soup. The environment is really good too! You can even see chef cooking inside. Definitely will go there very often!

I dont understand the positive reviews for this place. The food isnt bad, it just tastes like nothing. If youre allergic to any seasoning, this place is for you, because they dont seem to use any. It is pretty quick -- but Id rather wait a little longer to get a better lunch.

My favorite Chinese restaurant in DFW. Their lunch special is supreme. A decent dish with free steamed or fired rice only costs $6 or 7. Take-out and entree are both with very generous portion, too bad I live in Richardson where is too far for them to deliver.

Best Chinese place in Frisco!! New to the area and have been searching for good Chinese! The food is amazing and very fresh! You can see the chefs cooking the food while youre waiting. Service is great, everyone was so friendly. :) HIGHLY recommend! Finally.

Food was fantastic, best I have had in a long time, and i eat chinese cuisine pretty regularly. The chef was kind enough to alter my wonton soup because of my shellfish allergy. Nice staff, and even more genuine service. I guess i went in on a good day.

Tried it on a whim. Ordered the Kung Pao Chicken with fried rice. It was fresh done just right not too spicy or hot. Also tried their egg rolls which were fresh and crispy. All in all the food was good and well prepared. I would go there again.

The best Chinese restaurant around Frisco. I visited here with my colleagues during my lunch time. The food was just GREAT. I ordered crab rangoon for appetizer and sweet and sour chicken for entree. Both were amazing.!!!!

Service wad good. But the Egg Foo Young had no flavor. Very disappointed. Fried rice was horrible. Sometimes the food is avarge and sometimes horrible. I think it depends who cooks it. They need to re train their cheifs.
