Customer Reviews
The name is truly befitting of the establishment. When you enter you are immediately welcomed with a warm "Hello!" from the madam at the register, an exceptional start to a delicious meal. My husband and I had the pork ribs with fried rice, sesame chicken with lomain, chicken wings, and steamed dumplings as appetizers. I've been to several Chinese restaurants and I must say that this one is top tier. The food was well seasoned, the portion sizes are large, and it was very affordable. All in all I give this place a solid 10/10 and would definitely recommend giving it a try.
Definitely my new favorite Chinese food spot. Me and my wife went for lunch and stayed for the vibes! This place is really cool. They have a puzzle next to the register ( I didn't solve it whomp) and everyone has a good time working together to figure it out. Oh and the food is great too! Everyone there is super friendly. Great experience.
Grew up eating from this restaurant. Absolute classics are the chicken and broccoli and lo mein. Keep coming back year after year and the food never changes yet it always feels new each time. Always greeted with a warm smile by Sue (the owner) or one of her kids. Great small family owned restaurant.
I've noticed over the years that egg rolls get smaller at all Chinese restaurants but is rare to find a good BBQ sparerib.... This place makes GREAT RIBS. Customer service is absolutely wonderful. Very clean establishment..
Food tastes fine but Prices are on a higher side for what you would expect for a small Chinese take out place. $15-$18 for an entree that is typical quality of a Chinese takeout is not justified IMO. I know several places where I can get much better meal for that price, I won't be back anytime soon.
