    I have been coming here to get my food for at least 3 years now. Management is always friendly and pleasant. The place is always neat n clean. The food is always good n they do not charge extra for more bean sprouts or scallions when I place my order. I like my broccoli double steamed n extra gravy on my rice with my beef and broccoli. I'm from NY so there is certain style n flavor for Chinese food that I look for. I brought my daughter here when she visited from Cali n she was very pleased with her food order n the price. She wished they had place like this where she lives. Sadly they only have Panda Express

    My go to take out spot for Chinese food in the Tricities area. I have been a regular patron for over a decade. There are a few tables for dining in. Although the place could use an update. Some of my favorites include egg drop soup, chicken teriyaki sticks and their chow fun noodles. Lunch specials are a fulfilling portion. Only thing missing are the fortune cookies.

    Sorry for the messy table but it's the only one I grabbed  You can see the white food prep container, the soup and rice.

    We ordered a family meal it came with 2 soups, 2 entree, 2 rice containers and 2 egg rolls, we added chicken Lo mein. The portions were big, the containers they came in were the plastic food prep containers which is awesome, the egg rolls weren't soggy with oil, the Lo mein was really really good the chicken in it was kind of weird but didn't bother me too much. I think next time I'd just get vegetable Lo Mein. Over all experience was great, they were open on Christmas which was so great!

    I been eating at this restaurant for a long time. I have tried many items from their menu and their great! Their fried rice is not greasy, fresh and made to order. Upon your order they make your protein aswell. I love their Crab Rangoon, crispy, creamy and smooth not heavy great taste. Their meat taste fresh. They are super busy during lunch time but they still get your food in a reasonable time.

    My favorite Chinese food in VA by far!. Staff is friendly and have good rapports with the community.Tried their dragon and Phenix for the first time which was extremely delicious and fresh. They gave a good amount of chicken and decent amount of shrimp. The shrimp lo mein was a also fresh and delicious, oh and they also have bean sprouts here which seems extremely hard to find in Chineses restaurants down here in recent. All and all great food and taste almost as good as my NY Chinese food.

    I tried the Singapore noodles that were the best I've had in a long time. The curry was so good.

    I like that the food is always consistently good here. I generally always order a club sandwich…read morewhen I go to a deli, and theirs are good, and I love the giant pickle spear that comes with all of the meals. This place does inspire me to branch out from my normal choice though. The sailor is delicious, the French dip is great, the Cuban is great, the barbecue chicken is so delicious. All the people have always been friendly, the parking lot across the street is convenient. The family and I are fans.

    I used to live in Petersburg when I was younger and I've been to restaurants close to here but I've…read morenever gotten the chance to try out this place. Interior (8/10) - The inside looks good but the chairs at the glass tables were a little too tight for me so I decided to sit at the bar which was a good choice. The chairs at the bar felt a little wobbly but I didn't mind. I sometimes drive past this place during the night and it's always packed so I guess it's best for a post work visit. Service (8/10) - The staff were extremely friendly and on top of things and it's a local restaurant so I not going to complain. Food (9/10) - and now for the main attraction, the food tastes pretty good. I had the Crab Cake Sandwich and it was seasoned and savory. My friend ordered mozzarella sticks and they were the best mozzarella sticks I've had so far, crisped and cheesy to perfection. And the crab dip was pretty decent, too creamy and juicy to my taste (No Diddy). Overall, this place doesn't come off as a place for dinner for me but it's the perfect place for Lunch. 8.5/10
