If you are looking for a family friendly restaurant, and you were craving Chinese never, and I repeat, never go here. Our experience started walking into the restaurant. No other customers were there. We grabbed our very dirty menus that were sitting at the front table with a sign. We were the only ones. There was waitress in the corner yelling how tired she was. After five minutes or so she decided to come to the table to ask us our order. After ordering she then served my daughters and I waters. The straw looked like somebody took black grease in the inside and splattered orange pop on the lid. I at that point was ready to leave, but wanted to stay and give them the benefit of the doubt after serving us our appetizers I asked her if she had a busy day because she had told us how tired she was. She then proceeded to yell at me in a very firm tone “ I’m so tired don’t ask me all these questions. You come eat and sit and be by yourself don’t talk to the server, Oh yeah, you see all these people in this restaurant a table over there for four over there and over here I mean why you asked me if I am so busy today. How dare you don’t talk to me anymore” at this point, I could not believe that she was speaking to me this way. I told her you know what go ahead and keep your order. Will eat these appetizers and pay for them and go so you can rest. She then walked away in a kind, voice yelling ever so loudly. “I know your meal about done I got to get your meal you pay for your meal” I really just wanted to walk out but I just sat there. After receiving our meals, she proceeded to carry-on. She then explained to my three-year-old who said oh this chicken is hot she “oh honey yes, this is a hot meal not like the peanut butter sandwich your mom make you every day for lunch this hot.” I then responded with excuse me, but I am a stay at home mother and I feed my children, home-cooked hot meals daily. How dare you say that to my kids? I cannot believe first off how rude she was, and then second off to offend me in front of my children. The food was terrible. It was hot, had no flavor, and after my experience with her and the dirty menus and cup and the way she treated me I was uncomfortable, even eating a meal. After bringing our ticket, I told her that she made me so uncomfortable that I would never be back, and I cannot believe she would speak to her customers that way. She said, “ I just speak it like it is “ well, so do I MAM and I will speak to every person who asked me where to go for Chinese not to go to your restaurant. While I paid for the meal which cost us $46 with no tip. It was the worst $46 waste of money that I ever spent in my life. I will tell everybody about how awful my...
Read moreSo I've been eating here regularly since about 1999. And I've been lucky enough to travel throughout the United States. This is my favorite Chinese restaurant anywhere for a few reasons. The ingredients are very good quality, fresh, and the cooking style is very clean. A lot of Chinese restaurants you go to, they use artificial flavor for the sauces or the food is really greasy or salty or drowning in sauce — there's none of that here. They make their own Sweet and sour sauce, and they enhance the soy sauce that they buy bulk. I particularly like how they use small shrimp, which has a firm texture and a good flavor. The vegetables are fresh and perfectly sautéed, crunchy but not raw. The General Tso's chicken has dark meat and a hot crispy breading and is coated in just the right amount of orange sauce. The crab Rangoon has a very pleasing cream cheese flavor with spices, the wonton wrapper molded into a flower shape and deep-fried. Each dish has its own sauce, so if you order Da Chin Chicken or Kung-Pao Beef or Shrimp and Chicken Szechuan-style, each one of these has a brown sauce, but each one is made completely different, with different flavors. I don't know if this is "authentic Chinese" but it's definitely artisan cooking. The service is very fast so your food comes out hot within minutes. I think the prices are remarkably low. I've paid triple this in large cities when the meal wasn't as good. Downsides? Nothing significant. They don't offer as many types of beer as they used to, and they don't have a hard liquor license. They don't have any Cambodian influences, would love me a Bangkok chicken dish....but the Vietnamese bun (bowls) are absolutely delicious and they do have pad Thai and Pho soup. I've never had a bad customer service experience here. These people have been in the United States for decades now, they have a very hard-working straight-forward all-business approach. Looking for some of the tastiest Asian food...
Read moreMade the mistake of going here on Christmas Eve. We don't live nearby and so could not order takeout as it would be cold by time we got it home. It's seat yourself and we were immediately yelled at by the lady who works here that you should call first and you don't go out to eat on Christmas Eve. Ummm, what?? Why are you open then and have a dining room?! Mind you there was no one else seated. Yes I get takeout orders must've been keeping her busy but hire some help? I wanted to leave then but my husband wanted to give it a chance.
Big mistake! She proceeded to yell at every single person that came in and attempted to be seated until they got so uncomfortable they walked out the door! She actually said you're not going to sit dine in are you?? I can't take this. My mind is everywhere right now. You will have to wait at least 45 minutes. No I can't explain the menu to you. Etc etc. She practically threw our food at us. Was very unkind to people picking up their takeout orders. I think everyone coming in the door was as shocked as we were. Also, the portions are extremely small and very expensive food. It isn't the cleanest looking place. We definitely won't be back and I suggest you avoid it too unless you enjoy overpriced food and someone yelling the whole time.
UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO OWNER: First of all, the only BS here is you lying about having a full house. I detest liars. You were unwilling to seat anyone else. You post all of these pictures on social media pretending to be packed out when they are from previous days. You made it very clear that you dislike people and do not want them to be eating dine in. You don't have to worry about it because with your nasty attitude you will eventually run them all off. You are correct in that you are the one bad apple ruining the establishment....
