Very disappointing experience. The customer service was honestly terrible. The woman working there was extremely rude and unprofessional from the moment we walked in. She had a bad attitude, made us feel unwelcome, and acted annoyed whenever we asked questions. On top of that, the food was not good at all — it tasted bad and did not seem fresh. Overall, the atmosphere was uncomfortable and the service completely ruined the experience. I would not recommend this place.

We have been to this restaurant many many times over the last 15 years. We always order take out and the portion sizes are quite large and they always pack it up so neatly so there are no spills in the car. I highly recommend the eggplant in garlic sauce. It is by far our favorite and the tender eggplant just melts in your mouth. Our other go tos are the vegetable lo mein and the kung pao vegetables with tofu added. The passion fruit boba is also really good.

I loathe writing bad reviews, but be warned…I thought I was getting punked when my son got home with our order from here. It did not smell like Chinese food at all. The box was soaked in lard or something similar that didn’t look like it came from our food but some sort of spill. There was a very strange black charred crust thing in oil stuck amongst our food. It seems like they used very old and brown oil to cook everything because everything smelled like overly used burned vegetable oil. Those dinner packs are a joke…whatever the silver wrapped chicken is was missing but I was fine without it at that point. The soup smelled and tasted like what I would imagine toilet water would taste like. The Mongolian beef was not even close to what it’s supposed to be. It was straight up chopped beef on top of what looked like chips or those crisps that go in the soup. I later figured it it was a bunch of super fried hard noodles (huh?). I love Chinese food and it was so sad. We spent over $50 for 3 of us and only one ate about half of her noodles and had diarrhea all night. I did call to kindly tell them the issues and wow…the lady who answered just straight up attacked me verbally. I almost

I went in here really wanting to like the place, I was craving Chinese food and love giving business to Chinese restaurants, but this place was so bad, it makes it hurt even more. This place was so gross. I got the Mongolian beef for dinner and there was no care taken when making my food. My dog wouldn't even eat this. I've eaten a lot of Chinese food and China has such a nice, rich culture. Make no mistake, this is not a place to experience good chinese food or culture. Server was also stingy with soy sauce and only wanted to give 1. The Mongolian beef had fried noodles in it which tasted stale and there was more stale noodles than beef. The fried rice is also lacking vegetables and wasn't good. I'm remembering this and not coming back.

I love the food here. It's authentic and one of the best Chinese food places in EP. Simply delicious, I love their beef broccoli. The inside of the restaurant is outdated and it feels a little humid, I prefer to always take the food on the go. The service is provided by this strong character lady and her husband is the cook. She's nice and likes to talk, but make sure you're clear with your order and don't talk too fast. There can be a slight language barrier but it's no problem! I recommend you try this delicious food if you haven't. 💯
