Once again I wish Yelp allowed half stars because the true rating is 4.5 stars. Randomly discovered…read morethis place. Decided to do the trifecta of shrimp chicken and beef. Ordered takeout and customer service was outstanding. Portions are large so this place is excellent value. Rated from least favorite dish to most: Shrimp pad thai was nutty and rich and the shrimp was well seasoned. The sauce was a little bit too sweet for my taste. Beef lo mein was a really generous ratio of beef to noodle. Lots of meat and it was very tender and flavorful. Noodles were fractionally too soft for my preference but I really enjoyed this dish. Cream cheese wontons were better than most. The wonton was delicate rather than thick and oily and the cream cheese filling was not too sweet. The Chinese mustard was perfect but the sweet and sour sauce had an odd spice I can't put my finger on. Kung pao chicken was absolutely fire. Crunchy veggies and tender chicken and spicy sauce and crunchy peanuts. Delicious. Vietnamese coffee, freshly made and not cloyingly sweet. The perfect ratio of coffee to condensed milk. I would come back for the coffee every day if I could. I will definitely order from here again!

For mains we got the chicken chow fun, which was interesting. The chow fun came rolled up rather than the flat noodles I'm used to! Different, but yummy. The only small miss was the chicken being a little overcooked, otherwise it was good. We also got the pepper steak and that one was good. Each dish ran about $15, which feels fair for the portions. Also they have fish and chips and fries on the menu as appetizers, which is a fun curveball for a Vietnamese spot. Not what I expected but has variety.

Even after 10 years, the quality of the food has not disappoint. Prices are a little high, but I see the cleanliness. Other places may give out bigger portions, but when you walk-in take a look around, you already know who wins. Food is pretty authentic being Chinese Americanized food, but if you're nice and don't mind to spend a little more money to order something off the menu; it's super delicious and authentic. This place beats out all of them. LOVE their soup. Hot and Sour can be a little more sour, but fresh in house made soup every day and sometimes by dinner they sell out by lunch? YES PLEASE. read more

This is a great place to eat If you're on a budget. I love the BBQ pork and the cheese wontons. You have to order the cheese wontons. They are not like other restaurants and you won't be disappointed. Or you can order standard Chinese dishes. It's Denver-quality Chinese food without the drive. The place is very clean and they have a large TV if you just want to dine in. read more

Expensive for cheap food. The rice they use are left over broken rice. Those are the cheapest rice out there. Even asian pple don't eat those rice. It was not good. I ordered from them and got small portions. But didnt matter the food wasn't good so I didn't even finish it. They did use to have good food. But not anymore. read more
