Best rib tips and friend gizzards I’ve ever had! Even better than NYC. Fast and seasoned to perfection. The prices are reasonable and competitive. Also, they had great, welcoming and friendly customer service. That was yesterday and I’m going back today

Tasty and filling. The Shrimp broccoli was fresh and delicious. The Hot and sour soup was also fresh and yummy. Only thing is there a a minor issue with the small clump of cornstarch gelatin that was not fully dissolved in the hot and sour soup was a little unpleasant. But overall I enjoyed the food and will order again soon. Great Chinese takeout to have in my neighborhood.

This place has some amazing food, at some very good prices. I'm glad it survived 2020, if they stayed open a little later, I would probably eat there every day! Look at this beef fried rice. Delicious.
