I tried the vegetable fried rice & it was delicious. The restaurant is a neighborhood hole in the wall but customer Service was top notch

The only reason why I gave it 4 starts is because there was a piece of hair in my food! But the food was so dang good I’m not even tripping. Literally the only Chinese restaurant I ever go to on the west side of Chicago! Speedy service and BOMB FOOD

I ordered a fried wings combination plate with combination fried rice and added bean sprouts as a vegetable. When I opened the meal, the wings were immediately off. They didn’t have that classic starch-and–soy sauce essence you expect from Chinese fried wings. Instead, they tasted and looked like orange chicken or chicken nugget–style breading — a light skin Keisha, cakey’ batter that clearly wasn’t meant for regular fried wings. That alone was disappointing, but it made more sense when I noticed they gave me 12 sweet and sour sauce packets, which felt like a giveaway that this wasn’t their usual preparation. The fried rice was worse. Certain bites had a rancid taste, which I’m assuming came from old or reused oil. It wasn’t consistent throughout the dish, just random unpleasant bites — enough to ruin the whole plate. The spring roll was actually good, but the egg roll was underdone, so even that was hit-or-miss. On top of the food, the ordering experience was uncomfortable. I had to repeat myself multiple times about wanting fried chicken wings, the person taking my order didn’t seem to understand, laughed when I added vegetables and bean sprouts, and the whole interaction felt passively aggressive. Looking back, it should’ve been a sign that fried wings and fried rice aren’t their specialty. Overall, this was a waste of money, calories, and what was supposed to be a cheat meal. I wouldn’t recommend this place. Very disappointing and not representative of the quality this community deserves.

The "Lo Mein" is actually ramen. Which makes a world of difference when you're expecting something actual vs a lazy imitation. They could've at least opted for spaghetti noodles.

Glad I've found a authentic Chinese place since moving from the Southside to the west.
