Really good walnut shrimp and their curry noodles too! The veggie egg foo young was also very fresh! Big portions too can easily share and take home.

The food is consistently really good and the vibe inside is nice. Top 1 or 2 places in that regard here imo. The owner/manager guy is a super cool dude. The only problem I have, and it’s pretty annoying, is that the takeout can take 2-3x as long as they say. If it’s busy, then tell me it’s gonna be an hour for my food and not 20 minutes. If it’s not busy, then the food will be on time. Ask how many ppl are there if you’re getting takeout so you don’t end up awkwardly standing around in the middle of the restaurant

Me and my wife ate here a couple days ago. Their food was excellent. So far the best in Visalia. I had a sesame chicken My Wife had the orange chicken with chow mein. This place is underrated on the reviews. It should be a 4.8 to 5. We highly recommend this place. So give it a try.

Great food for the price, everything had good flavor and taste, the cream cheese wontons are fantastic. They made 6 dinners in 15 mins! Overall would come back again.

Service was excellent and we were well taken care of. Food was good but not the best I’ve had from Chinese establishments. Chicken overcooked and dry, but I suppose better that than undercooked and sick.

Got the lunch combo for dinner. They don’t have any good dinner combos for people with shellfish allergies, with them saying no substitutions and having fried shrimp as part of every combo. They charge $3.50 more for getting a lunch combo after 3 pm, without giving more food. Service was pretty fast and friendly. Not overly welcoming though. Their dine in area is rather small as well.
Got the sweet and sour chicken, chicken chow mein, egg drop soup and egg rolls. The sweet and sour chicken and chicken chow mein seemed a bit try/overcooked. The sweet and sour sauce was pretty good. The egg rolls seemed decent too. Pretty good value for the amount of food you get.

Dined in Friday at 7:30pm, dining room was busy but starting to wind down around that time. Server was friendly and food came out quickly. Most Chinese food is greasy so I expected that. Rice and chow mein were good, orange chicken was crispy and sauce was really good. Some of the fried foods were dripping with oil. The decor is nice but dusting is needed as there were cobwebs and dust on some surfaces. One unisex restroom. A customer was blowing their nose while everyone was eating, I understand that may be unavoidable at times but in my opinion it’s more polite to excuse yourself and blow your nose in the restroom (just my opinion) and did not affect my overall experience. I noticed many regular customers coming in for pick up orders and making small talk with staff, they were pleasant and friendly. Worth a try!

I ordered Hong Kong chow mein through DoorDash and was told it would be ready in about 30 minutes. When I arrived at the restaurant, the staff looked surprised and could not find any order under my name. After some back-and-forth, they finally realized the order had never been entered into the kitchen at all.
Instead of apologizing or handling the situation professionally, I was told to wait an additional 10 minutes. When I asked for clarification, the staff spoke in a condescending manner, saying they were very busy and that many people were waiting—clearly implying I should just wait however long it took, regardless of their mistake.
I then asked for a refund due to the error and the delay. They refused and pushed me to deal with DoorDash instead, taking no responsibility for their own failure to process the order.
This was a complete waste of time, with poor communication, no accountability, and rude customer service. I would not recommend this restaurant, especially if you are ordering for pickup through DoorDash.

On our recent visit, my wife had the orange chicken and I had salt and pepper calamari. Calamari is often a chewey dish, but this was bouncier than most. The first bites were like tire rubber. The calamari softened a bit as it cooled but remained stiff. It needed to cooked more or tenderized more or both. I wish that I had ordered salt and pepper shrimp instead.
My wife was neutral on her orange chicken. Overall, the food is a little
better than average strip mall Chinese food.
My large Tsing Tao beer was $10.50. It seemed a little stiff to me.
If you read other reviews of this site, you will find that your overall experience here will depend on the mood of owner (???) at the register. Based on my multiple visits, her mood can range from 1 to a 4. (Never a 5.) She was in a good mode tonight. Beware if she is on the phone when you enter.
It’s the nearest Chinese food to my home. I will come back, but it is always an adventure.
