It must have been a slower time when our large party went in. They got us seated right away. Although, I guess it's one of those places you order first then they bring it out when it's ready. 🤷‍♀️ (It was everyone's first time eating here.)
The woman who waited on us was very polite, friendly and she tried to be as helpful as possible. We had some indecisive people in our group.
It didn't take very long for all of our orders to come out. They all looked pleasantly appetizing. Everyone's food was steaming hot, perfectly cooked vegetables with a nice crunch still to them and a large side of white rice accompanying the meal. We were all surprised by how well our meals maintained their heat throughout our consumption of them.
We did not get asked for refills on our drinks, not sure if we had to do that ourselves or not. (First Time eating here)
We had to clear our own table at the end of the meal.

My favorite place to eat in the area, I don't just want tacos and burgers all the time! We usually eat inside and the food is so hot and fresh you have to let it cool down before eating. We've never had to wait very long. Can usually make 2-3 meals out of one dish. You can choose how spicy they make your food. I don't love the fried rice but to be fair I haven't loved the fried rice at many takeout places. It's typically better at exclusively eat in restaurants.

Almost every time we go some family doesn't know how to read a sign and doesn't clean up their table. I've never seen the staff be anything more than patient although that must be frustrating to deal with. They have free refills if you eat inside and all you have to do is take your own dishes to a tub instead of paying extra. It's not a difficult concept to me. You are supposed to put your order at the tablet but they always pay attention and help anyone who is confused or has physical difficulties.

We’ve been enjoying the consistent excellent food here for almost 20 years. Friendly wait staff, and moderate prices.

This place is fantastic. I love going there. I have to drive about thirty five minutes to get there.And it's well worth the drive

Not your typical yankee oriental food, it tastes good and was cooked perfectly.

Our first time eating here. Everything we ordered was hot and fresh, seasoned to perfection ! 😋 We had lots of meat in our fried rice and lo mein noodles. We definitely got out money's worth
Thank you 👍

Have eaten here for over 15 years and the quality has never faltered. It's Affordable, the portions are MORE than fair, and the food comes out quickly every time.

The lunch deals are especially good, as they include all-you-can-eat soup while you wait for your food, and the portions are still very large.

Although this place seems a bit run-down, the food was very good. For dine-in, they have all you can eat soup (3 choices). Serving sizes were above average. Lunch specials included fried rice, soup, and choice of crab rangoon (2) or egg roll. Everything was very good. Except for the fact that it is not very close to us, I would definitely go again if I were in the area.
