Lackluster at best. We do not recommend and will not be back. We were going to try this place back in August, but decided not to after the lady inside was rude and annoyed about us arriving at 11:05. They open at 11. We ended up going to a different Chinese restaurant a couple blocks away. Today, we decided to give this place a second chance. We shouldnt have. Same lady, same attitude and demeanor. As soon as we entered, she yelled from behind the counter to ask if we were eating in or getting take out. Once we answered, she waved her hand for us to pick somewhere to sit and dismissed us. The menu has no descriptions. Its a take out/delivery (like the ones that show up in your mail box or get stuck in your door) inside a plastic menu sleeve. The place looks run down with cracked walls and flaking paint. The food (Snow Pea Chicken, Broccoli Beef, and Coconut Shrimp) was below average. We shouldve just gone back to the other place (Kung Fu Gourmet) instead.

Once was enough. We ordered to-go, so we got home before we realized that our dinner for two that included fried rice was discretely substituted for plain sticky rice. And yes, I made sure the dinner included fried rice for the price indicated and still, we were cheated. We took care to keep the food upright during the ride home but when we got there, we realized that sauce was completely filling the bag and was spilled over all the containers. As for the food, my first bite of chicken was promptly disrupted with a mouthful of cartilage. The hot and sour soup was acceptable but not near as tasty as others Ive tried. Way, way to much hot pepper in the General Tsos and the Hunan Beef and Scallop. It made them almost inedible. The only good thing I had tonight was the egg roll, which was probably a bulk prepared food product. Dishonest, disgusting, waste of money. Never going back.

This was the worst meal Ive had in a very long time. I dont think the chicken with broccoli or the fried rice had any flavor, just like the fried rice. I complained about the dirty bathrooms and the staff told me it was a public bathroom and theyd get to it at the end of the day. We hardly ate any of our meal and paid and left. I thought about it and went back and asked for a refund, which was denied because they said we ate some of the food.

Good, classic American Chinese food. Cream cheese wonton was very good. Good value on the lunch special, with just the right amount of food. I ordered the vegetable chicken and it came with a good mix of veggies. The egg drop soup was a little on the thick side and didnt have the best flavor. My biggest criticism is that this place could use a good cleaning.

I feel like I have eaten a lot of Chinese food over the years. And for the price and the amount of food you get its hard to beat! The food is better than several of the much more expensive Chinese restaurants I have been to. I found out the owner is the cook. Thats impressive. He works so hard at ts hard to be the best. I Highly recommend this place!

Great place! I have eaten here dozens of times. Would be five stars if they would go back to their original idea of "not-so-americanized"-chinese food. Portions are great, ( was much smaller a few years ago). Service is great. Take out is prompt. Coconut shrimp is surprisingly awesome! Overall, I recommend this place to everybody!

I live in another part of Utah bit was up this way visiting family. I ordered the dinner for four and was not disappointed. There was plenty of food which was very good. It has been a long time since I have found a good Chinese takeout and wish this place was were I live. My family very much enjoyed the quality of the food.

The cashier forced us to get to go because they closed in 30 min and when we got are food we had no forks or napkins to eat it. When I worked at a restaurant we couldnt force our costumers to get to go. no matter what time it was even 5 min to close we still gave them the best service we could.

Fresh food. They cater well too. The ham fried rice is cooked just right and can be ordered in bulk for just $20 and it feeds a lot of people. Their servers are very friendly. Good lunch specials.

Food was pretty good. Not the best Chinese ever but not bad for a quick take out dinner. The egg rolls were great. The portions were huge. The service was friendly and fast. We will go again.

Very big portions for a good price. Our favorites were the General Tsos chicken (on the spicy side) and the beef with black pepper sauce. They took great care of our huge group!

Good, old fashioned, hole-in-the-wall Chinese food. Prices are fair, food was good, staff was friendly. A little lacking in atmosphere, bit thats part of the charm.

Its kinda hit and miss with the right dishes. As a repeat customer, I recently discovered an excellent dish that I cant wait to have again. The Szechuan Chicken.

You get a lot for what you pay for. Yummy food, we still think the soup needs a little bit more flavor. But other than that excellent service and cheap food.

This is my go-to place for Chinese takeout in Davis County. Excellent quality, taste, speed, service and the Family Meal price cant be beat.

Pretty good food, the lady behind the counter always seems grumpy. Similar food to panda express, but arguably more authentic.

Big portions for not that much money! The meat is not covered in lots of bread so it is not as bad for you as some places.
