Not at all impressed. Went on a Friday around 1:00. I was one of the first to arrive and told them we had a group of eight coming. Then as we waited for the rest of the group we started to look at the menu. 1st red flag: Two entire sections on their menu were covered with duck tape because they didnt offer it anymore. One of the regulars in the group said this was normal. (Update your menu please) Then as the rest of the group arrived we ended up with 10 instead of 8. The server was nearly offended that we would dare bring more people with us. (Some people just dont like making money I guess) 2nd red flag: she then informs us that there is only one cook in the back right now, as if this was un normal, and that we would not get all our food at the same time. (Why are you under staffed at lunch time on the weekend) Then came time to order. Most in the group ordered from the lunch menu, but only two people in we hit the 3rd flag. Only about 3-4 items on the 10 item menu were in stock and available.

Well... It was disappointing. We had decently high hopes for this place but it let us down and sadly led us to want to never come here again. To start out they were out of the Thai tea. The boba I got in my smoothie looked nothing like the picture and didnt taste or look like any of the typical tapioca that I have experienced. The food was bland. I got the house noodle soup. The chicken tasted strange and had the texture of something I can only describe as fake. I only ate about 5 bites of various parts of my soup before it got to the point where it all just became unappetizing. To their credit, they did apologize for the soup after we explained we didnt even want to take what was left home and didnt charge us for it. My partner got the sesame chicken which he liked. Although he didnt like the fried rice, the ham and egg was nice and I thought it had a nice wok seared flavor. In the end, the fried rice would be the only reason I would come back.

We did the “B” dinner which was a bit of a treat. The wonton soup was surprisingly good with a mix of carrots, mushrooms, beans, the shrimp, pork and the wontons. Pretty savory and plenty of it. The sampler was delicious but if anyone knows how to open that foil-wrapped chicken without leaking it all over your hands, please help me! We ordered the sesame chicken and Mongolian beef. Both were delicious and just as you’d expect them to be: gooey-crunchy and soft-savory, respectively. We took home the leftovers and that’s saying something! If I ever get to choose between the pizza buffet next door that my kids love or this place, I’m going Chinese!

This place was terrible. I had the sweet and sour shrimp. I am pretty sure the buy the shrimp pre-breaded and frozen. it was awful. I had a to go order. I stood waiting for about 5 minutes (the restaurant was almost empty) and they didnt seem to care i was waiting. Also two workers were in the back scraping off dirty dishes. They both came to the front and one was filling water pitchers. Neither washed their hands. The other was touching my to go order (and others) also with unwashed hands. I will not come back here again.

I tried this place recently after it was turned over to new management and remodeled. It was really good.....like really really good. Its hard for me to say that about a discount chinese (american chinese) place, but I was really impressed. Give them a chance and get the sampler appetizer (which can essentially feed two people for $8). Cream cheese wontons are usually the worst part of meal, but here they were exquisite (crazy good wontons!)

This was my first visit and my last. I had the General Tsaos Chicken, the chicken was overcooked and the breading was soggy and the sauce wasnt very good either. The ham fried rice was bland and a little under cooked. The hot and sour soup had what looked to me like spam instead of tofu....very disappointing. The best part of the meal was the cheese wanton and even then Ive had better. Theres no reason for me to go back.

We were a little bit apprehensive due to the negative reviews but we decided to go for lunch anyway and we loved it! We ordered lemon chicken and sweet and sour pork plus an egg roll. The cheese wantons that came with it were delicious and the lunch special price was right on. We would go again for lunch

Wonderful and warm aesthetic and atmosphere, excellent customer service, and delicious food. This restaurant put me in such a good mood and its obvious the staff care about your experience. Theres a fish tank, great mood lighting, and the tables and booths arent sticky. New favorite date night spot!

Kitchen Service was terrible. Only three tables occupied. Me and my wife both ordered a lunch special, its been twenty minutes since I got my food and my wife still does not have hers. The waitress was very friendly, but the kitchen is not very considerate. However, the food was very good.

This was always good but now it is under new management. The food is stellar now. We had Family Dinner B for two with honey chicken and happy family. The pleasure started with the wonton soup and lasted to the fortune cookie. I am excited to have a restaurant this good in Highland.

AWFUL. This place was horrible in every way. Paying for more than $20 of food that I could make from scratch. Too bad this wont let me rate zero stars. Plus this awful girl I went to High School with was there making this the worst experience. Will not be returning to this place.

I got this for wife because she is pregnant, and I heard that if you get Chinese food they can usually keep it down. And we had success! I enjoyed it. And the lunch specials are good to. Not PF changes for sure, but it will satisfy your Asian craving.

The food tastes like b-hole and the restaurant is covered in a thin layer of grease. It’s all reheated frozen food and if you look back into the kitchen you can see that the place if filthy with blackened grease smears across everything.

Called ahead of time and got speedy service overall we liked the food. The best part of the whole experience was having the waiter sing for us, he is very talented and very entertaining, definitely going back!

Been here a few times and have always been pleased. They are very, very polite to their customers. The food is good, but not out of this world. Overall a great place to eat, and the people are very nice

Best food! We LOVE this place! The service was outstanding and everything was so clean and nice! I would highly recommend this restaurant. We live in Salt Lake and believe it is well worth the drive.

I love the food and Im glad that they are close. 9/10 times they answer the phone promptly. I always place my orders over the phone and 99% of the time they have it ready to go when I get there.
