Delivery was super fast. They are hard working, smart and efficient. Food was enough for 3 people and super reasonable. Hope they keep it that way. They remembered me and that was nice as well as saving time. The egg foo young was really really good....better than my kid memories from Old Chinatown. The gravy was extra special!!! And on top of crispy(thin fried) noodles just magnificent. My only foul up was I forgot to order almond cookies. A tradition of mine. Can't wait to try Beef satay, orange chicken Mongolian beef and a chef special of lobster. Next 4 weeks. Wish I still had dining club buddies we would definitely have ordered all of the above. JUST GREAT.

I ordered for pick up. And the young man was very sweet. I ordered 2 orders of sweet and sour chicken, and the food tasted moldy. Mind you, I served this to my kids…. I called the restaurant and explained the situation nicely, and the young man was very respectful. Then he passed the phone to a lady… she was very disrespectful and rude. She had the nerve to tell me “We had a lot of people order sweet & sour chicken and no one has had a problem.” And I said okay but I tasted it, and im not the only who tried it and agreed on it tasting weird. The lady said okay bring it back, and ill refund your money, but next time buy somewhere else, i dont want to serve to you again. THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME ORDERING FROM HERE AND MY LAST!!! I WAS NOTHING BUT RESPECTFULLY AND CALM! And she just went OFF!! I ordered a chicken fried rice too… and even the chicken from the fried rice was bad!! She commented to my review, deleted the COMMENT i screenshotted & then corrected herself with “Thanks for your opinion” VERY DISAPPOINTED!!

If I could give zero stars, I would. This was one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. I walked in and was completely ignored. The woman behind the counter was on the phone the entire time—taking orders, chatting—without even acknowledging me standing right in front of her. When she finally hung up, I thought she’d help. Nope. She picked the phone right back up and continued ignoring me like I didn’t exist. Beyond rude. To make matters worse, the place was disgusting. Dirty floors, strange smell, and just an overall vibe that screamed “we don’t care.” It’s not just unwelcoming—it’s unsanitary. I wouldn’t eat here if it were free. This place seriously needs to be inspected and shut down until they figure out what “customer service” and “cleanliness” mean. Save yourself the headache and go literally anywhere else

Today I bought Mongolian beef here, and when I wanted to mix rice and meat with vegetables, there were noodles at the bottom.. Where did these noodles come from?!..

The best Chinese food I’ve ever had. Their egg rolls are so great too, I look for this restaurants flavor and sizes everywhere else I go. The food always hits so good. Love the food and I hope this place continues to get blessed with more business and customers.

I live in the area and I refuse to go elsewhere for good Chinese food! Amazing shrimp fried rice, general so, seasame chicken, chow mien, and dumpling soup!! The service is always fast, food is delicious and always HOT! I think it’s a family business but I love everyone who ever rang me up at the counter always super friendly! Cute eating area with large windows where you can people watch or car watch on Milwuakee Avenue. I will continue to be a regular at this spot. Bless this business!
