The customer service is okay.Thankfully the food was delicious. We got sesame seed chicken & shrimp fried rice. It was fresh & hot. Nice portions as well.

I gave this location a 2 star simply because the food didn't have any taste. No flavor. I ordered vegetable fried rice and egg rolls. The fried rice just doesn't taste very good. There's a certain fried rice flavor that is hard to replicate at home, which is why I opted for take out, but this just didn't hit the mark. It's like I tried to make it at home. I was also surprised that they gave sweet & sour sauce in little packets. I'm from TX, so I'm used to the red sauce in a cup. 😕 Unfortunately, I won't be revisiting this location. It didn't help that this + the egg rolls were $14.

Hot and sour soup tasted like spicy dish water. General Tso chicken was intolerable. I'm not a picky eater and I'm usually willing to eat something even if it's just 'ok'. I could not stomach more than two bites before I felt nauseous. The fried rice was ok and the egg roll was pretty good. (Edited for spelling error)

Pictures can be quite deceptive. The food looks 1000x better than it tastes. I got the sweet and sour shrimp. The coating on the shrimp was too doughy and salty. The general chicken was ok but didn't taste like the chicken Chinese restaurants typically use for general chicken. The rice tasted old and had a funny after taste. The egg rolls had way too much cabbage. Please SAVE YOUR MONEY. THIS PLACE IS TRASH. I got a stomach bug immediately after eating this garbage.

This is some of the best Chinese food I’ve had. From eggrolls to fried rice, the quality is great! Tastes fresh, portions are reasonable and how long it takes to receive your order is prompt. I can’t even take a picture of the food because I ate it all, it smelled so good. If you want fast, fresh and savory food, def come here! You barely need soy sauce and the food is so warm, very comforting. Thankful for their speedy service and active listening
