Don't waste your money in this place. I did and regret it, I usually go to "China Garden" on Mt. Pleasant but it was closed so I gave this place a shot. Ordered beef with Chinese vegetables, Chicken fried rice and Dumplings (which was the only decently prepared dish). Beef and vegetables were a joke of a portion, barely any beef and veggies, when I opened it I could literally count how many pieces were on the container and you could see the bottom.The fried rice had barely any chicken or vegetables and was halfway cooked. Called the place to let them know and the guy who picked up the phone got offended. If you don't believe look at the pictures. Never again.
The rice was bland and had a burnt taste, the wings were stale, and the egg roll was not stuffed also overcooked on outside. Overall the price was great but the food was trash.
Its no wonder the food was ready in 15 minutes, the vegetables in every dish was still raw and only half cooked, even in the egg foo young which is deep fried. The rice was the opposite and was very sticky and mushy. Food had a homemade taste which was kinda disappointing when I had a craving for American Chinese food and the noodles had a really strong ginger flavor.
I grew up in Livingston and used to get food from here pretty frequently with my family because it was the only Chinese place that had an extensive vegetarian menu complete with fake meat dishes (this was in the 90s, long before the current "plant-based" trend). We were visiting friends this weekend and ordered from here again, the food is just as good as I remembered. Vegetarian General Tso's chicken and vegetarian beef lo mein are my personal favorites. Prices are very reasonable, and have been for decades!
Our go-to place if we are craving chinese food in the area. Prices and taste are fair too. No frills or thrills. I have never ordered a bad entree here.
