Customer Reviews
The food was very good. I also thought the waiter was wonderful. He was an older gentlemen very gracious. However I do have to agree with another reviewer about cleanliness or lack thereof. The bathrooms are in fact disgusting and do smell like they have some sort of sewer issue or about to have one. A bit of cleaner and some elbow grease would go a long way. I will eat hear again but I get the feeling it may be a crap shoot. Excuse the pun.
LARGE portions! Excellent crispy hot chicken! The pieces are cut in such a way where they're easy to eat! Not huge pieces... Cut smaller for convenience! I got the orange chicken and it was great!!
I'd like to start with the fact that I don't even know if I've ever even left a review for a restaurant prior to this, with no more than 5 reviews for public display in my life. 1: Crab Rangoon was so overcooked that it would barely even break apart, and when it did, you had pieces fly everywhere, and all I saw and tasted was the outer shell. 2: The wontons were overcooked as well and edible at best (still the worst I have had anywhere in the country). 3: The steak was almost decent, but on the lower end of decent. Super thin and very chewy. Was painfully obvious it was cheap and poorly prepared. 4: The shrimp fried rice had a poor taste to it and cold as well. It was almost crunchy, if that gives you any idea. 5: On top of all of that, I was given no eating utensils or napkins with my food. In conclusion: This was the worst gimmick of Chinese food I have ever purchased and/or consumed. I'd even go as far as to say that it is potentially the worst food I have gotten from a restaurant period. I drove about 15 minutes or so to pick it up, whereas had I known this would be the quality of the food, I wouldn't have walked across the street to get it if it was freely given to me.
The best egg rolls in the city are at this place They hand make the egg rolls and they taste so perfect The prices are very appropriate and every dish is sized generously. This place is an absolute gem, and underrated here on google. It deserves the 5 star rating
The food was delicious! Both entrees had great flavors and nice portions (we took most of both entrees home). The beef on the appetizer plate was very, very tasty. We didn't eat the calamari ringa because they were rubbery. Otherwise, everything was excellent. The server was very pleasant and attentive. We ordered an appetizer and had just about finished when our entrees arrived. The place was very empty but it was Christmas Eve. The only downside was the bathrooms. Both bathrooms were unkempt and dingy looking. It's an old building, so it may just look dingy because of the age. We will definitely return to try other dishes.
