The portion on the lunch special is unbelievable and the flavor of this broccoli chicken has a nice garlicky edge to it. The texture of the broccoli was that perfect blend of crunchy and soft that only the best restaurants pull off. The chicken was so tender, it melted in my mouth. There's a hint of white pepper in this dish that hits right at the end and makes it go from a 9 to a solid 10/10. All without being overly salty.
The chicken wontons and veggie egg rolls that come with the lunch are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and I'm glad they only gave us one of each because I would've eaten a whole plate.
My 75 year old vegetarian friend came with me this time. I asked them if they could make a veggie version of Kung Pao Chicken and cook the veggies more to make sure they're soft. They accommodated him without any fuss and the dish was so delicious he couldn't stop telling me about it. I kept saying, "I know, mine's incredible too." XD
He and I were struggling not to drink all the jasmine tea they gave us.
I've ordered sweet and sour chicken here as well as the lo mein. Both were stellar.
The mother of the owner can be a bit hard to understand, but she is very patient and fun to talk to. She's very kind and proud of how good the food is. It's adorable. Patience with her is thoroughly rewarded.
They always give you great fresh fruit for dessert. This time, it was perfectly ripe slices of watermelon.
It's no wonder this is one of my favorite restaurants in the...
Read moreAmazing place to eat. Definitely a hidden gem. My family has been eating here but only recently suggested I eat here. Didn't know that the portions were huge. My boyfriend and I ate here today for dinner for the first time. We ordered the wonton and hot and sour soup thinking it would come in a small bowl. Not the case here, they brought out two big bowls, each with a ladle and two smaller bowls. We ordered the house chow mein and the sweet and sour pork came with rice. Wow they came in a huge mountain, right off the stove and piping hot. Food was so delicious that I kept burning my mouth as I ate. The staff were friendly, and the owner would check up on her customers. Had a nice conversation with her. Definitely will come back. Only problem is the limited parking but...
Read moreMy absolute favorite place to eat in Grants! HUGE portions, clean interior with clean decor, and amazingly cheap lunch deals. They offer complimentary appetizers, typically a spring roll, a pork wonton and sweet and sour sauce, one for each diner. Besides that, they also have complimentary desserts! Usually it's battered, fried and glazed apple chunks with sesame seeds, but for summer it seems they're doing watermelon slices, which is another great, refreshing way to end a meal.
My favorite meal is the mongolian beef lunch special. $6 for a huge portion of beef with a huge side of fried or steamed rice.
2024 Update: This place only gets better and better! Now they serve specialty mixed tea drinks with toppings like boba and egg pudding. Coconut tea with egg pudding...
