    For a quick and fulfilling plate of fried rice to help combat my craving, this did its job! Located right off of Plano Pkwy and Beltline, it's tucked in a shopping center that's not hard to find at all. I placed my order on the Uber eats app and opted for pickup since it saved me $8. The food was ready in less than 15 mins and was fresh. When I arrived there were no other patrons there but the way it was set up looked to be more convenient for takeout anyway. There was one corner with what appeared to be DJ equipment but I can't confirm. I thought it was cutely decorated with sports Jerseys. Food: for a mom and pops type kitchen, the rice definitely served its purpose. They skimped me a little on the meat (combo fried rice) so I would say that could be improved a little. The flavors were nice and again the rice was fresh. I ordered a veggie spring roll which was very garlicky (if that's a word). My first bite was great but after a while the garlic just overpowered my taste buds so I didn't finish it. Overall..:for a quick meal I'd definitely give it 4 stars. I will even go back and try the Lo Mein.

    I've been looking for good Chinese food since I've moved here in 2016 & I've finally found it. The Ambiance is cool. The service was great. The menu doesnt list prices which can be tricky. we ordered a small wonton soup, a small egg drop soup,shrimp fried rice and a orange chicken which came with fried rice. Taste of everything was on point. Total was $40 Bucks. Will come back again!

    Flat noodles (not lunch special)

    This place has character. Rather small and very informal yet its decorations are its own. They have a variety of choices and a lot of them have "lunch specials". I order the flat noodles, which was sadly not one of them. It tasted good. The one big complaint as others have pointed out is that they lack price list. My bill ended up more than what I planned on spending that day.

    I ordered takeout . The wait for the food was minimal. This place seems to be a small family owned establishment, so the lounging area is also a mini office space. The service was okay- no complaints. I placed my order and was give a ETA - which was spot on. Food- I order the fried dumplings and curry combo rice. The dumplings were okay nothing special - just fried dumplings. The rice was cooked to perfection, as it wasn't sticky and mushy. The curry flavor was definitely present, this dish would have earn the restaurant a 5 if the veggies and meat was a tan bite savory to pair with the curry. Maybe bigger shrimps, and chicken pieces??? I will give them another try, but will probably tweak the rice order a little to build on the flavor profiles. Overall a good experience!

    Hole in the wall, but OMG is this place good! I got the Cantonese Shrimp and it was absolutely delicious! This place has earned my business for the foreseeable future, whenever I want some great Chinese food!

    Amazing! Great food, great prices, fast and friendly service. I got the beef chop suey with steamed rice, my boyfriend got the general tso's chicken with fried rice, and we shared wontons. Everything was delicious and the portions were pretty big. The restaurant felt so at home even though I had never been there before. Will definitely come back!

    Best Chinese food I've had in my entire life. Definitely on par with that of the super expensive places. Wide variety of meals and pretty cheap. So good!

We ate egg rolls, crab Rangoon, and soup, followed up by orange beef and beef fried rice. The crab Rangoon could have used more stuffings, but what was there was good. I thoroughly enjoyed the orange beef. The tenderness of the beef and the taste of the sauce was on point. Definitely don't pass on this one if you are craving Chinese food. Note: they do serve peanuts before the meal, so watch for that with allergies!

This place is absolutely made for a group outing, and we're already planning to come back with a group to take full advantage. The food was a delight. The Singapore noodles had this wonderful curry flavor that I absolutely loved, and the combo fried rice was just as satisfying. We also ordered the Peking duck (P1 on the menu). It was good, though not quite as flavorful on its own as we'd hoped. That said, once you load it up with the hoisin, cucumber, and spring onions, it all comes together beautifully. The bao buns that came with it were soft and delicious, honestly a highlight. We also sipped on hot jasmine tea throughout, which was the perfect, refreshing complement to the whole meal. A solid spot with great vibes, tasty dishes, and room to grow on us even more with a return visit.

We ordered: Cumin Lamb (side: fried rice); Singapore Noodle Combination (chicken/shrimp/beef); Eggplant w/ Garlic Sauce (side: steamed rice); Okra w/ Giant Oyster Mushroom (side: steamed rice); and Xao Long Bao (6 pcs). WOW! The braised okra with giant oyster mushroom positively SURPRISED and leap frogged to the top of my preferred vegetable GOTOs...The cumin lamb was SO tender and VERY flavorful. One of the best preparations yet. The Singapore noodle combo and Xao Long Bao did not disappoint... More importantly, the service we received was attentive, courteous, knowledgeable, and prompt. Sadly, the eggplant with garlic sauce is the ONLY reason a star is withheld for this review...it detracted from traditional Chinese style; notes of garlic eviscerated by the chef's sweetening to satisfy an American palette...Why fix something that's unbroken?...I get it. The restaurant has to cater to its customers who populate this mix use (business/lease residential) area at the NW corner of Alma and Hwy 121, but doesn't that limit its draw? Guess we'll just have to head either further south on Central (HWY 75) to the Legacy & Spring Creek areas or further west to the Preston and Warren Pkwy Frisco TX area to satisfy our authentic Chinese cuisine food cravings.

But regardless, we didn't have enough skin so asked if we can get 2 more skins, even if we had to pay for them.

We ordered the A-Choy vegetable and it was awful, old and yellow and not cooked well. It's like they didn't sauté it in a hot enough wok so it wasn't crispy. So disappointing this time. Don't get me wrong, the Peking Duck and the soup that comes with it were still pretty good. Thus the second star.
