Ordered online and I made a mistake on my 2 drinks I ordered milk tea w/ boba and wanted Thai tea w/ boba. As I walked out from picking up my order I noticed what I did. I went back inside to see if they would change my drinks for what I really wanted letting her know that I made a mistake by accident.There was a women working and she made such a big deal about it. She refused to change them saying that it was not her mistake and that her boss counts the cups, saying unless I repurchased the drinks she’d give them to me because it’s coming out of her pocket. I let her know that I would call tomorrow and speak to her manager so that her boss doesn’t get made over the cups. She insisted I didn’t need to do that but I let her know that I would no matter what. I spent a good amount of money on my food and even left a tip for her. I honestly didn’t see the problem in changing my drinks I was not rude to her and made it clear that I had made a mistake and asked nicely if she would please change them. She just kept going on being negative and rude towards me. She ignored me while I stood by the door letting my food get cold taking phone orders, she finally gives in and tells me that I should appreciate that’s she’s making the drinks for me because Milk Tea w/ boba was more money then the Thai Tea w/ boba I looked it up online and they are the same price. In the end I got the Thai Tea but she never added the boba. Really annoyed me that she had to be that...
Read moreWith its reasonable prices and cozy, low-budget decor, this little restaurant isn't too bad. While there's nothing particularly impressive or unique about the food when contrasted with other Chinese restaurants, there wasn't anything I tried that was bad, either. There doesn't appear to be a lot of dine-in business, at least not on Sunday in the early evening when I was here. However, in the time it took me to eat my dinner, they did at least a dozen to go orders, possibly a few more.
In short, if you're looking for reasonably priced, competently cooked Chinese food that stays well within the expected range of a standard "American style" Chinese restaurant, this place will fit the bill.
I'm giving it a four star rating because I think it deserves more than three. If I had the choice to do so, I would rate it three and a half stars.
Update: due to the extreme level of consistency from the chef here, I've decided that this place is more like a 4.5. All of the times I've come here, I've never had a situation where the food wasn't prepared well. That level of dedication and quality deserves a higher rating. This place has slowly turned into a favorite place of mine to eat, and has remained that way for a couple...
Read moreStill trying to find decent Chinese food in the Coachella Valley. Not sure it exists. This place is clean enough. Service was prompt but not very friendly. Tea was hot and there was a nice little fried wonton appetizer treat. I had the orange chicken with fried rice (not really) and an egg roll. The chicken was chicken breast, which is always better than what is usually used (thigh meat) but there were exactly 2 pieces of green pepper, 1 piece of carrot, and the rest of the vegetables were onions. Seriously? The fried rice was, I don't know what, it looked like a bunch of brown rice that had something dumped on top of it. It definitely was Not fried rice. My husband had the sweet and sour pork which he said was ok but same vegi issues. His came with 1 butterflied shrimp. No soup comes with these meals. The meal portions looked like something you would get for lunch - not something for dinner. As compared to a few other places we've tried, there was some flavor to the dishes but not much. Still...
