My family and I stopped in late (around 9pm) when only one other customer was there. Service was a little on the slow side as I think most of the staff had gone home (they close at 9:30) but the food was tasty and the people were friendly. Made for a nice stop on our way back to Tacoma after an afternoon at Deception Pass. Hot green tea and plenty of food was just what we needed. I'd give 3.5 starts if that was an option, but not quite up to 4 stars, as they were a bit more focused on heading home themselves at 9pm than on taking care of us, and while they were nice, you could feel we were getting a bit of a rush. My dish (cashew chicken) was just the way I like it, as was my daughter's combo, but my wife's chow mein was a bit saltier with too much soy sauce for her tastes. Would I go back again, well, I wouldn't avoid it, but with several other Asian restaurants in the area, we'd probably try another one. This one had 3.7 stars average rating when checked before stopping in, and if you're getting there during prime dining hours, that's probably about what you...
Read moreVisiting this city and had driven around looking for places to eat for a long while. Found this jewel on Google and so happy we did. The entire experience was top notch. From the moment we walked in to the second we left. The service was impeccable. The old school American Chinese food service is still alive here!! The prices for what you get are a steal!

Blended just right.
This is not a chain so please go ahead and try for yourself. If I lived here this would be a...
Read moreThis is the best mandarin food choices in Mt.Vernon. My son gets the Mongolian Beef 5* very spicy. My son says it's the best in the state. My husband love the Mu Shu. fresh chopped veggies with chicken. Eat it right off your plate....or roll it up in the tortilla type pancake add the hosin sauce and enjoy! For me sometimes I'll pick a common dish that the majority of people order. The sweet and sour chicken, almond chicken, chow mien all very tasty. However my new thing about eating out. Is to try something new. Something I've not had before. It has been a fun adventure for my taste buds. Everything has been wonderful. Even some of the spicy items have been great. Family friendly. They also have a full bar. Highly recommend stopping by and sampling the menu. If you are a soup person....the sizzling rice...
