I was a little leery about this place as the building needs repair, but I decided to give them a try. The staff was friendly, and the kitchen was busy. The prices are fair, the portions are big, and we both enjoyed the food in the comfort of our own home (we choose takeout). I wish them the best with this restaurant as we need good food in the area.

Initially I arrived at 11:30 a.m. when they opened. When I went inside I was told they wouldn't have any food ready for 30 minutes (which is 30 minutes after they opened). I left to consider other options, but returned to give this place a chance. The location resembles a dive bar which is what made me believe the food could be good. The excessive amounts of graffiti littering the outer walls were very unaplealing though. Even after reading several reviews, I chose to give this place a chance. They did serve Chinese, however the food was mediocre at best. The egg flour soup was basically water with some salt and a little bit of egg (very bland), the sweet and sour chicken was somewhat rubbery in texture and the breading was white as if it hadn't been cooked long enough. The pork fried rice was also bland, however mixed with the sweet and sour sauce and little soy sauce it was ok. An Oriental lady initially took my order, however did not allow me to chose a side for my meal and also did not show any interest in allowing me to order a drink other than water. She was not very relatable and didn't seem to care about my presence in the restaurant. I chose the sweet and sour chicken lunch special. When I ate, it was about noon, which was when she originally said the food would be ready. The amount of food was sufficient and the price point was good for a lunch special, however the quality and atmosphere need some work. I wouldn't return to this restaurant based off of today's experience and wouldn't recommend it.

Love it here! Dive bar type with quality, delicious Chinese food. I enjoy all the Chinese decorations, real cute place. Looks sketchy on that outside and that’s what drew me in, along with the lotto signs ;) food portions are plentiful and fair prices. Drinks generously poured.

The hostess was very friendly, the food was OK. The pork foo young was very bland, and the gravy had a slight "old seafood" taste. The shrimp was tasty but really greasy, had to dry it out a little. The pork slices were perfect. The egg rolls were the "pagoda" brand type of frozen spring rolls. The pork fried rice was amazing. I recommend this place for fried rice dishes, and if you're in need of quick, cheap food.

Though I have seen no indoor seating being used they have outdoor seats that are usable at the very least and offer takeout as well

Is this a buffet?
