Unbelievable find, stashed away in a strip mall. The decor is minimalistic and very clean. The staff is very attentive and polite. The food... oh wow! I had a dish called âChina Townâ and vegetable fried rice. Thinly sliced beef, chicken, and HUGE shrimp with fresh veggies. SPECTACULAR! Finished off with fried cheesecake, like an oriental cannoli with chocolate sauce drizzled on top!

It is in an "interesting" area, but the restaurant itself is very nice. It has a varied menu and pretty much the typical Chinese selections. Shrimp with lobster sauce was pretty bland, fried rice tasty, but pretty salty. Egg rolls were large, but mostly cabbage and pretty bland. Dumplings were just kinda mushy. We had a Hunan dish that was good and the portions plentiful. Our friends had enough for a whole other dinner even though we ordered three dishes for four people plus a couple of starters. Service attentive without being overbearing and prices were very reasonable. We don't eat Chinese very often so I may be judging a bit harshly.

Generous portions. Fast service. Order the family style dinners for three, four, or five for the best value. You do not have to order the selections listed on the menu in those categories...order what you like...nice size restaurant if you want to eat in.

Stopped in for a late lunch, was immediately "greeted and seated". It was quietly busy.As usual the staff was polite, friendly, and efficient! What can I say...many good choices for all tastes and diets, too. The food looked very fresh and the selection, from sushi to "cooked while you wait", fresh dishes, fruits, and desserts....was vast. No rush, hot tea, chopsticks...or not, it was a very good experience! And...what a bargain!Be back again, soon!

This place has been around for a long time. I've gone past this place several times, but haven't eaten here in years. On a Wednesday evening around 7:00pm, my wife and I were the only ones dining here (other than the owner's family, or guests). The conversation between the owner and the other table was in the Chinese language, spoken fairly loudly. At least you know that this place is truely, indeed, authentic Chinese. I am no expert in Chinese dialect, so I have no idea which area (Cantonese, Mandarin, Szechuwan...etc...) is representational of the food.The food I ordered was the Won-ton soup for two and Egg Rolls. My wife ordered Egg Fu Young. The soup was very bland (not enough sodium for my taste, but if you don't like salty soup, wou will probably like the soup here). The Egg Rolls were average, cooked right, but the cabbage wasn't chopped finely enough for my taste. The Egg Roll condiments on the table, while tasty, were in jars with sticky lids, which felt like they hadn't been cleaned in a long time. EWWW!The dining room seemed a little aged, though the lighting seemed brighter than I remember when dining here long ago. The seating in the booths is getting to be a bit worn, and should be replaced.I would suggest getting take-out. It seems that a lot of people order take-out, as the phone rings frequently, and the ringing is loud throughout the restaurant. The doorbell is equally loud. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to enjoy a romantic meal here.The menu prices seem quite reasonable. It looks like the menus (and prices) are at least ten years old.
