- Chinese foodfind Chinese food that has the items and cooking style of back home. THIS IS IT!!!
- FoodFood:5
- chicken wingsTheir chicken wings are probably the best I've ever had.
- duck sauceThe chicken chow mein had the ingredients I remember from NY: celery, bean sprouts, onion, bok choy. They included three bags of yummy fried noodles and lots of duck sauce. I can't wait to have it again.
- food qualityAlthough there were a few times there was something amiss, it was always resolved. But lately, the food has been absolutely delicious. Everything has been fresh.
- fried ricefried rice has good amount of meat
- portionsThe portions are a good size
- string bean chickenI really enjoyed the string bean chicken. Flavor was delicious.
- authentic Chinese foodFor a relaxed, chill spot with excellent food, look no further. This is not fancy dining, but it offers authentic Chinese food. I had the BEST ORANGE 🍊 CHICKEN I've ever had!
Frequently criticized
- foodMy experience at this restaurant was marked by terrible tasting food, despite a very reasonable price. I ordered the combination dinner, which included Mongolian beef, a clear broth wonton soup, a disgusting egg roll, and pork fried rice.
- Szechuan ChickenSzechuan Chicken: I asked for extra spicy but it wasn't spicy at all.
- riceThe only thing that was good were the egg rolls. My wife and I ordered two large shrimp fried rice, but the rice was overcooked.
- dumplingsthe dumplings was the most nastiest dumpling I ever tasted
- flavorHowever, today we ordered three dishes that we've had before, and the food was totally tasteless. There was zero seasoning and no flavor. The sweet and sour pork was so dry, and the egg foo young tasted like watered-down eggs with bland gravy.
- food qualityfood quality has definitely gone down
- orange chickenThe orange chicken tasted like pure grease and salt
- Almond chickenHad about 10 almonds and maybe 6 small pieces of chicken. The rest ALL celery.
- Buddha's DelightThe buddhas delight did not taste great.
- Chicken wings and pork fried riceThe prices are very high as well; I miss my spots in Brooklyn. Chicken wings and pork fried rice should not cost $15. And where's the chicken wings with barbecue sauce and hot sauce in the big bottles?
If you're seeking hearty, authentic Chinese dishes with generous servings, this spot could be a good bet. However, be aware that consistency can be an issue, with some experiences falling flat on flavor and quality.

- pricesGreat food. Prices were reasonable and the staff was very nice, even near closing time with a large order. It's worth the drive from our house and they will definitely be our new go-to spot for yummy Chinese food.

Frequently criticized
- pricesThis used to be my favorite place, but unfortunately, that's no longer the case. They have changed their offerings to only 1 size and have raised the prices. I always preferred the small size, and while the containers are now larger, I don't eat that much and dislike leftovers.
- pricenot worth the price they are charging
- waste of moneySuch a waste of money
- charged for the mealStill got charged for the meal
- pricingPricing has increased
- scamThere is no excuse for these prices, especially when comparing them to Chicago Chinese restaurants that have maintained their prices. I felt like they were trying to scam us here in Las Vegas.
If you're looking for affordable lunch specials and generous portions, this place could be a solid choice. However, be mindful that some find the regular prices a bit steep, so it might not always feel like the best value for money.

Chicken Quality Decline
My experience at this restaurant used to be very good, but lately their chicken dishes are not white meat anymore. They have become hard and tasteless. I hope they go back to using all tender white meat chicken, as we would return if they do.
