This is simply the best chinese place I have found in three years of searching. I came from NJ, and for anyone from NJ, Fuzhounese is what we typically get. I cannot reccomend this place enough.
I loved the General’s lunch special and the Fried Wontons. The Almond Chicken was also a great one, as the person lying down on the couch can attest to.
The portions on even the lunch special were generous, with this being one of the few times I stopped halfway through. The bag was almost overstuffed, and the only way to extract the containers was by ripping the paper bag. (RIP)
Overall, best chinese since leaving NJ, and would reccomend highly.

This place surprised me in the best way! Lots of veg options and the veggies were fresh and well seasoned. I loved the snow peas and garlic and the bean curd in garlic. The bbq pork ribs were dry and didn’t seem super freshly made. They were flavorful though. This place has no atmosphere and doesn’t even have real chopsticks and forks which is disappointing that they are so wasteful. Overall loved the veggie options and would recommend takeout

Honestly, we couldn’t even finish our food. It was the worst Chinese food we’ve ever had. Completely bland and lacking any flavor. Tasteless.

The food is okay for Chinese takeout. It’s fresh and hot, but feels like there’s too much msg. The service is okay. They assumed I wanted a large and charged me for that instead of a small, when it would’ve been nice if they asked. The atmosphere is really poor. Feels run down and dirty. I’d get it again for takeout if I’m in a hurry, but otherwise wouldn’t go out of my way.

Shrimp fried rice. Terrible. No flavor at all. Tails still on the shrimp. More vegetables than rice. :/

Exactly what you should expect from a local family run Chinese restaurant, great food, great portions and super fast, don’t expect a bunch of frilly customer service, they’re a no nonsense place that does great takeout. They’re exactly as advertised I hope they stay in business as long as possible so we can keep getting our spicy shredded beef orange chicken and crab Rangoon order for years to come

Got takeout for lunch and was very impressed. I ordered the sesame chicken combo plate that came with an egg roll (not the most flavorful but nice and fresh) and pork fried rice. The fried rice was a pleasant surprise and the chicken had plenty of delicious sauce. All this for about $11 (incl. tax) made me a very happy customer! The woman working the register was not particularly friendly or anything, but I was in and out in probably 90 seconds.
Quick service and great food.
