Went out with work friends for lunch and it was amazing! So cheap for how much food we got and it was so good!

Super flavorful, crispy tofu with large portions. Probably the best price point in the area. I’m obsessed with their kung pao—it’s STACKED with zucchini, onion, and cabbage (unlike a lot of other places, which is just a bunch of dried chilis).

They are the nicest people working here. The American style chicken fried rice was incredible! Best in the neighborhood.

Fantastic. The Singapore style noodles are excellent and the lo mein noodles were cooked perfectly. Very light on the oil which really made the dish. Service was the best I’ve had in Chicago thus far.

In from Dallas, and this is some of the hands down best Fried rice I've ever eaten. The place is nice and neat, the waitress is pleasant and welcoming, and I will recommend this place to anyone...

I'm so happy I found this restaurant!! The food is fresh and delicious! We've been looking for a go-to Chinese restaurant in our neighborhood and this is the one! I tried the hot and sour soup, chicken chow fun, and beef fried rice American style. Each thing was flavorful and unique and portions were excellent.

I have ordered in multiple ocasiones from this great establishment and have enjoyed every meal.They are prompt with the orders,friendly, and reasonably priced. The physical establishment is very clean and the area safe. Quality of the food is great I really can’t emphasize that more.

I got the beef and mixed vegetables and the egg drop soup! The egg drop soup was massive- I would’ve paid double, it was SOOOO good. The beef was tender and Delicious. They threw in an egg roll which was excellent because I will be ordering them in the future, crispy and super tasty! So happy to have a go-to Chinese place in the neighborhood

Do not recommend: had kimchi fried rice, big portion for the price but it could not make up for the lack in flavor for me. Disappointingly no spice to it, even without spice the fried rice simply lacked flavor, not even sure how to describe it other than I had much better at other places. Sadly I will not be coming back.
