    Shrimp fried Rice

    Little Spot in the wall , with the best shrimp fried rice I've ever tasted ! It cost $13 but I was well worth it , it was for almost 2 people . Everything was on point like a shrimp fried rice should be , they're generous with the shrimp portion , the shrimp well just right , not soggy . What got me what's all the egg they put in it !! Must try , it was my first time , it is in a shopping center plenty of parking , and like I said it's small spot spot , I will try a spicy seafood soup next time!! 5 STARS for taste and customer service , I did order and it was ready when I got there ..

    100000/10 this was after I devoured it and still haven't made a dent!! So delicious I got it without veggies and mild spicy was so good! Just tried it for the first time! I have to try the whole menu now!

    Fried Chicken - Dry Spicy Orange Chicken - Super hard, tough and dry. Didn't even taste like orange chicken. Just cayenne pepper and Jalapeños Beef broccoli - Chewy, had to spit it out. Broccoli was probably the only decent tasting item on the plate Thai Tea - Idk what kind of tea it was but definitely didn't even taste close to a thai tea. In the end, I threw everything out

    During summer one of the kitchen staff took one of the standing fans and used it on himself while eating. While a small one was blowing small amount of air one direction. Small portions of rice cost close to 5 dollars. Ridicules. Caught pest control operating in the back of the kitchen DURING work hours. Disgusting people

    This place is AMAZING! I got half and half rice and chow mein with orange chicken & chicken string beans! This place never disappoints, I've been coming here for many years and they are so sweet when they greet you and the portion sizes are spot on! If you are looking for a quick take out this is the place to go! I love this place

    The best Chinese food in this area. Warm and friendly customer service. The egg rolls were fresh and the kung pao was delicious.

    Overall, it's pretty plain. Food was dry and not appealing. Saw it many times before while shopping at Luckys and figured I give it a try.

Generous protein portions heaped on top of hot rice and I believe they also make their own ranch dressing, addicting! But really order extra jalapeños if you love spicy!!! And just letting you know I only had about 30 people show up BUT EVERYTHING WAS EATEN. This just tells you how delicious the food is. Not only with adults but TODDLERS and KIDS ate it too which actually deserves an extra star. I did omit the avocados that usually come with the chicken bowls cause I had no control as to when my friends were coming and I didn't want them to brown. Even though some of my friends showed up later the food was still good! No reheating or anything on my end. Enjoy!

Everything about this place hits right--the portions are generous, the food comes out fast, and the flavors are consistently on point. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or settling in after a long day, it's the kind of spot that never disappoints. The teriyaki is perfectly balanced, the rice is soft and fluffy, and everything tastes fresh--not like it's been sitting around. What really stands out is the value. You get a ton of food for the price, and it actually tastes good, not just "cheap good." The staff keeps things moving and is always friendly, even when it's busy. It's one of those places that becomes a go-to without even trying. Simple, reliable, and honestly kind of addictive.

I felt almost confused at first, like as if the restaurant wasn't even sure of its own identity. However, once I started eating the food, I understood and am extremely impressed. I had ordered the crawfish pasta, popcorn chicken (spicy), and fried baos. The pasta was cooked perfectly with chunks of crawfish and sausage in a creamy tomato-esque sauce. I usually don't care for crawfish, but it was so delicious here. The sauce was so buttery and creamy, and the sausage added a cajun spice to the dish. The components are all very seafood boil, but felt different and innovative with unique flavors. The popcorn chicken was seasoned very well and had the perfect fried, crispy texture you'd expect from popcorn chicken. What really made this unique was the sauce that it was served with. I am not sure what exactly the sauce is, but it tastes like a ginger scallion sauce that is served with Chinese boiled chicken. The sauce is a little more elevated and flavorful than a traditional ginger scallion sauce. I would've never thought to combine popcorn chicken with it, but it works! The fried baos were the most surprising to me. I was keeping my expectations low because I usually think frying something that's not normally fried doesn't always bode well. Fear not, the baos were fried perfectly. They were fried lightly while the inside kept your typical bao consistency. Also, in case you were wondering the type of bao, it is basically a steamed bao with ground pork, and I think an egg yolk inside. The flavors felt very much like traditional dim sum, yet new and fresh. Hats off to the chefs and the creators of these dishes. So innovative while still keeping the familiar Asian flavors! I ordered delivery, so this review was solely based off of the food.

The marinated chicken sandwich (banh mi similar) was AMAZING. All of the flavors melded so well, it was so fresh, the sauce was so good, chicken marinated just right and the egg cooked to perfection. The peach lychee green tea was so good too. Definitely will be back as soon as possible.
