Don’t listen to the bad reviews. There is always going to be some emotional narcissist who expects to eat heavenly sent food coupled with heavenly nectar. If you can find this place from the outside, the food is amazingly delicious. Their large chicken with garlic sauce literally fed me for 2 days. They use fresh ingredients and they also have an authentic Chinese menu. Owners are very nice.

I ordered General Tso’s Chicken and Pepper Steak w/o Onions and it was great. Their food is freshly cooked, very tasty and well presented. I would highly recommend anyone reading this to go and experience some proper Chinese food hands down

Some of the most authentic chinese food I’ve ever had, you can’t go wrong with this restaurant, everything has a home cooking vibe to it and the people are very kind and welcoming. I’d recommend the spicy szechuan chicken that’s fried in the red peppers or any of their dishes that are served in a soup of hot oil. Sauteed string beans with garlic is also another classic if you want some veggies.

It might be my favorite Chinese restaurant in town! I usually go there to enjoy the great dishes after hang out with my boyfriend. It’s an old-line restaurant with good reputation. Quick serve and clean. My favorite food is sweet and sour chicken, and it’s also the most popular one. It’s a kind of American-style Chinese food, but if you are looking for authentic Chinese food, this spot also won’t let you down!

Great Chinese restaurant, with both an American-Chinese and authentic Szechuan Chinese menu. The authentic menu is amazing – some of the dishes I’ve had there tasted exactly the same as dishes that I had in China. Been going for years now, and the owners are always friendly and service is fairly quick. Highly recommend the Ma Po Tofu and Dry Diced Chicken with Hot Peppers if you like spicy food!

This food tasted so bad. we are new in town and I ordered this going off of other good reviews but they must be crazy. The Rice had no flavor and was watered down. The people were nice and did not rush me off the phone but still managed to mess up my order even though I repeated it just in case.. I couldn’t even finish the food and my husband couldn’t finish his either. I think it may have been the worst food i ever tasted. Ordered shrimp and broccoli and husband ordered general tzos everything was soggy with a nasty taste on top of it. Food came an hour late but we live close by!

The menu does not have pictures. It is in Chinese and English. Definitely ask the people there about the dishes and their recommendations. They are very friendly and willing to explain everything.

Been coming here for a few years now, food is consistently good (especially the crispy spring pancakes, if that’s the English name for it). Service is dependent on how busy they are and generally service attitude degrades when it’s packed, but overall still good. Try coming during off-hours if you want to really feel at home and converse with the owner.

Best fried dumpling I’ve ever had! The cold beef appetizer was really good and in general love the authentic Szechuan food. It’s hard to find authentic Chinese food in this area so I’m so happy to find this place.

Based on the good reviews me and my coworker juat ordered from this place for delivery. It was easy to order the food and they said it would take about a half hour. So I ordered the salt and pepper shrimp lunch special with the egg drop seaweed soup. The soup was very bland and it taste like water, the salt and pepper shrimp came with only shrimp. The shrimp had their heads on and the shells on, I know some people like the heads on but they should give everyone the option to have the shrimp heads on or off. Also the meal only came with shrimp, no sauce or vegetables, the description should be changed on the website to specify that it’s just plain shrimp with white rice on the side. The shells were also stuck on the shrimp after I peeled the shells off. My coworker ordered the general tso chicken and she also said her food was bland. The description online for the lunch special seem as though you get one meal, with soup and appetizers but that is not what you get, it’s a bit misleading and should be updated.I would not order again.
