    The sauce was terrible
    Stephanie W.

    Wanted to try a new spot a few months ago. Worst decision I made this year! Ordered sesame chicken and asked for it well done. What I got was boiled overly breaded "chicken" balls swimming in a thin sauce. The chicken was pink inside!!! Menu said "deep fried" chicken. I wonder if they only meant the broccoli. I tried to pan fry it and add seasonings, but the taste and texture was too much to bear. I picked off the broccoli and threw the rest in the trash. Only thing that was edible was the vegetable soup. Don't bother with this location please.

    Pretty good Chinese food. This take out spot has been here a long time and it's run like it. Many times there is a bit of a language barrier when ordering at Chinese restaurants and I am sure many can attest to this happening at least once (not that that is a problem) but the person taking my order who is presumably Jin Lin or the owner and was pleasant about it. He was chatty with some regulars who walked in to order/pick up which is a good look. I always look for unique things in Chinese restaurants to differentiate them. This one has some the pictures of the entrees in spanish due to Orange being a heavily latino populated area. I think this is a nice touch and compliments the welcoming attitude the owner had. The food was Solid. More or less the up to par American-Chinese cuisine we know and love.

    Based on the positive reviews, thought I'd give this place a try. Wish I wouldn't have and had gone to my local favorite Chinese spot! Maybe it was an off day, but the wontons in my soup were hard and the broth tasted awful! My chicken and shrimp in garlic sauce was shy on protein with only 5 popcorn shrimp and 5 small pieces of chicken. Sauce was gooey to boot! The food was not awful, and I've certainly had worse, but I won't be back. Check it out though, maybe you'll have a better experience!

    this was the worst Chinese food I've ever tasted in my life nothing was fresh everything was greasy I had the worst experience in my life. Something taste almost rotted I ordered shrimp with garlic sauce it comes with And vegetables it was horrible. I got a half a chicken with it and I don't even know what to say about it it was terrible Fried too hard and disgusting. I ordered my daughter a platter with chicken wing With white riceAnd egg foo yong gravy the gravy was yellow almost white it was horrible.The food had a smell to it the food almost had me to regurgitating . I don't recommend this place to anyone

    The broccoli and brown-ish sauce are the highlights of the meal, so sweet and savory.

The chicken was fried perfectly, and they generously added the hot sauce and ketchup I requested. I also ordered the General Tso's chicken with white rice and two pork egg rolls, and it was just as delicious. The portions were satisfying, and the food was served fresh. Overall, I had a great experience and will definitely be back! No dining in is available. Credit cards are welcome after $12.50 payment with additional surcharge of 50cent.

Even so, I make my order over the phone, ordering a small, not a large of the delicious Vegetable Mei Fun (due to being quite hungry after a smaller lunch of only 5g of protein a few hours earlier to an appointment). The price difference is a few dollars between the small and large. Still, what if one shows up at the eatery with only enough money to pay for the order set through the phone? The Vegetable Mei Fun is really tasty; my first bite consists of a few onions which are full of light savory-zesty flavor, a main highlight of the meal; every other part of the meal mixes in well, especially with the noodles which carry the flavors well. I don't find a need to add any other sauce though do add sauce to try the flavors mixing. All of the sauces mesh well with the ingredients though are not necessary. The original flavors of the meal are more than fine. The meal is quite filling. The eatery does not seem to have any set place for a customer to eat indoors. The eatery accepts different forms of payment. There is a dollar charge if one uses a debit card (which may be in connection with a minimum order amount).

Being in the area, seeking a high protein meal, I decide to check the eatery. The sauce of the Spare Rib Tips is really tasty. One familiar with rib tips may know the type of rib tips may vary (one with more or less bone/cartilage as well as of different sizes and proportion with/to meat). In this instance, the actual meat qualities of the rib tips are inconsistent; a couple of rib tips have meat that are warm though texture wise seem to be coming from cooling off ice; a few rib tips have meat that are tough and chewy; a few rib tips carry a candy sweetness and a fatless tender softness of which resonate with tastier bites, to me; and, aside from the meat, a few rib tips have brittle dark gray bone points which one may make a marrow inquiry of. I think the rib tips may benefit from kebab treatment so the heat may evenly spread, with an appropriate heating apparatus/method. Having the option to prepare rib tips on the spot for takeaway orders may assist with addressing rib tips' (perhaps other food options') quality as well. The eatery accepts different forms of payment. The eatery offers a variety of indoor seating options.

Most of the food was good but stay away from the spring roll and lo mein those were the worse. The female server is very friendly, the guy not as much. But overall a good place to stop and grab lunch or dinner!!!!!!
