I found this place just by driving by the area. Loved the shrimp fried rice I ordered. It's a carryout place. It's gets busy during the lunch hour. I will be going back again to try new dishes. Service was friendly ! Thank you.

We just moved to the area and have been trying out Chinese places and by far this is our favorite. We ordered the spicy chicken and the catonese style chow mein and a side of crab Rangoons. The dishes were great but we were blown away by the hand made crab rangoons. They also have a special once your order is a certain dollar about for even more crab rangoons for free. We’re going to be coming here again.

Very large portion sizes. If you order over 22 dollars you can always get free egg rolls. The potstickers and house fried rice were really well done, however i do not recommend the hot and sour soup. Very thick.

I ordered delivery and was very happy they delivered to my job. I originally ordered Szechwan Beef lunch special & and pot stickers. I ended up with chicken insted. It looked delicious, but my favorite is beef. I called, and the nice young lady was quick to rectify the mistake. Even though it was past lunch special time. They made a new one and brought it right to me! The food is delicious. I look forward to trying more food from this restaurant. SUPPORT LOCAL My 2nd meal a week later, I decided to try Orange Chicken Lunch Special. It comes with an option of fried rice or white. You see, which I chose in both pictures. The special comes with an egg roll & free pop. I love me some potstickers and always order them. Here is amazing. The Orange Chicken didn't disappoint! Very flavorful. Lots of chicken and rice for under $11. Potstickers are $7.

This is a Chinese restaurant ????????, our family has been dining here for more than 20 years, the physical goods are delicious, the indoor hygiene conditions of the restaurant are very good, the service attitude of the waiters is also very good, the food is served quickly and the price is reasonable. I especially like to eat hibiscus eggs and shrimp fire rice from this restaurant, which are very fragrant and delicious. It was our favorite restaurant as always.

The family making food here is amazing. They are just really stand up people. If you haven’t gotten food here, please do, you won’t regret it. Literally the best food and portions you can get in the Midwest. I’ll forever patron this restaurant and you should too.
