This place used to be my parents fav place to eat at but they found a place closer and quit coming here for a while. However, my work is nearby so it's been convenient for me to grab food for us after work to eat together so we have been eating here more often. Mom loves the Empress Shrimp here but they automatically add something that makes it a little spicy that makes it too spicy for her. So she has to be sure to tell them no spice. I have tried it with and without spice and it's fantastic either way though I definitely prefer with spice (it wasn't spicy to me, just more flavorful). I'm addicted to the shrimp rolls and steamed dumplings so I gotta get those every time I come here. The egg drop soup is good here as well. I have enjoyed a few main courses but nothing has stood out to the point where I have to have it so I'll have to keep trying different things. To Try: Mu-shu Pork Loved: - Appetizer: Dumplings (Fried) - Appetizer: Dumplings (Steamed) FAV - Appetizer: Shrimp Rolls FAV - Chicken with Basil - Shrimp: Empress (with or without spice, fried rice) - Shrimp in Lobster Sauce (fried rice) - Side: Chicken Fried Rice - Soup: Egg Flower (Drop) Liked: - Appetizer: Crab Meat Wontons - Beef with Bell Pepper (request red bell peppers) - Beef with Broccoli - Chicken: Lemon - Chicken: Sesame - Crispy Sesame Shrimp and Beef - Ribs: Royal Panda - Shredded Pork in Tangy Sauce - Shrimp with Lobster Sauce (white rice) - Soup: Wonton Ok: - Appetizer: Spring Roll - Appetizer: Vegetable Roll - Chicken with Snow Peas - Chicken: Sesame Ginger - Chicken: Sesame Kung Pao - Chicken: Szechuan (extra spicy, fried rice) - still bland and not spicy - Chicken: Ta-Chien - Kung Pao Chicken (very little sauce, mos veggies are celery) - Royal Panda Basket - Soup: Vegetable Meh: - Ma Pao Tofu (spicy) - Soup: Hot and Sour read more

The food is very fresh, not overcooked. The staff is always very friendly. Very nice for lunch.

I have been eating here for 20 years and I've never had anything that wasn't yummy. I am obsessed with their hot and sour soup, it's better than PF Changs. Every vegetable in every dish is cooked to pure perfection and deliciousness. The service is top notch. If you live within 6 miles of the restaurant you can order delivery after 4:30pm. What makes their option better than Door Dash is that there aren't extra fees and the price for the food for delivery is the same price it is in the restaurant. read more

Ordered take out of their lunch special. Lunch specials are reasonably priced. You get an egg roll, choice of soup and rice with a sugar coated Asian biscuit along with the entree part. I got the Kung pao shrimp and wife got the broccoli and beef. The shrimp dish has 6 pieces of medium to slightly large shrimp. Taste was good but could have been spicier. Fried rice was ok but a little dry, not very flavorful and had a slight burnt taste to it. Got hot and sour soup which was good. Wife reported the broccoli and beef tasted good with the broccoli not being overly cooked. Wife got the wonton soup and it was good. Came with fried wonton skins for the soups. Portion size as expected for a lunch special. Food was ready as ordered. read more

To go order: meh. Quickly prepared and brought out promptly, but that's where the positive ends. $45 for two entrees and an order of spring rolls. The spring rolls were filled with cabbage and a scant trace of chicken, heavily fried in a thin pronto-pup-adjacent batter. Departed from expectations, but not bad. Greasy. The king pao chicken was more kung pao celery and peanuts. A pleasant bit of heat at the end, none too spicy; had to be fortified with sliced chicken breast I had on hand at home. Mu shoo pork came pre-wrapped, five pieces to an order. These were oddly filling, so that was good, but still kind of bland. These dish was more of a texture than a taste. The lady at the counter was efficient, if not curt. The interior was pleasant, kind of a peaceful aqueous vibe. All considered, not the best around- and mediocre when stacking up to some of the better Asian in the area. If you're looking for Asian fare that feels like it's going through the motions, this may be the spot. read more

The food was alright. I had the sweet and sour chicken which could be better but I also tried the honey chicken and it was good, actually liked it better. The ambiance was nice and I liked the decor. It was clean also the restrooms were clean. The servers were pretty nice. read more

The food is always good and the order correct. The service is always friendly and usually the wait time is not long.

5-3-26 We are regular customers. Be mindful that this is a Mandarin food and not much as a Cantonese food restaurant. We order takeout for lunch. We usually order the regular size dishes. The food was cooked spot on. Everything was hot and delicious aside from being stuffed. We will be back soon and we hope to have another excellent meal. read more

Not my favorite in town. Fried rice was on the bland side for me, and I feel that they use too many "filler" ingredients. I probably will opt for one of my other favorite establishments in the future. read more

My wife and I recently enjoyed a mid-afternoon, weekend lunch. My favorites are the mu-shu vegetables and also the spring rolls. The portion sizes are generally generous, and the food is competently prepared. We like dining-in here, as take-out has been hectic in the past, especially on weekday evenings. We liked the excellent service that our server, Grant, provided to us. We shall return. read more

This has been one of my favorite restaurants since middle school! Consistently great!

Good food and service. Food is always favorable. Very good service in house. Take out busy, but easy to use!

Uhmmm. Just no. This is the very definition of a restaurant that doesn't care. Wait at the door before someone finally notices us and seats us... Wait at the table until someone notices we hadn't been helped... Server couldn't care less. No recommendations... Lots of bragging about hand pulled noodles in the menu that they don't even serve... Sent back two dishes - one for being cold, and another one for being the totally wrong dish. No apologies, just, "oh OK." Another dish was cold, but by then we just decided to finish as quickly as possible. And then the bill. A service charge added automatically???!!! And then you charge tax on top of the service charge. I mean is that even legal??? One of our dishes we asked to be boxed just disappeared... which was fine because it was bad. It's fine to have an American-style Chinese place. But one would hope you would actually make an attempt to make fresh dishes and/or provide good service. Nope... Just a pure rip off. Don't go here. read more

Old school sit down Chinese restaurant, Good place to go on Sunday after church, or lunch anytime. They have a great lunch special that includes an egg roll, soup, fried rice and sweet fried biscuit.

My favorite Chinese restaurant in the area!!! The food is always so good and fresh and I love all the options on the menu! I eat here 3 times a month minimum! Highly recommend and the service is great! read more

Always friendly service and great food. Get to go or enjoy the calming atmosphere inside. Always a good place to eat.

I rate this place a B+ or a 6/10. This place is a little far from my neighborhood but I'm willing to take the drive, when you want in there is a lot of traditional Chinese decor and it's quiet. On to the food , now it's not the best Chinese food but it does taste better than average. I always order takeout and the food portion is very heavy for me as a light eater , the best thing on the menu to me is the mixed vegetable soup, it's perfect for Memphis cold winters . Anyway the service is always quick and easy. read more

This was our first time to eat here and I was amazed and pleased with everything. The staff was very friendly and the service was excellent. We ordered from the lunch menu and I got the Hunan Shrimp and my wife got the Chicken with Vegetables. Came with fried rice and egg roll. The portions were very adequate and very delicious. This was one of the best, of the many Chinese restaurants we've ever eaten in. Wish it was close to our home as we would eat here once a week. read more

I recently visited and ordered the Panda Wings appetizer for $11.00. I assumed this was for whole wings for this price. Turns out you get 4 party wings for this price. That's $2.75 per party wing. That's outrageous. I called to make sure this was not an oversight and it's correct. Moral of the story, ask before you order, you may get magic beans instead. read more

Went for lunch and enjoyed it. It is an older restaurant and has that feel. The food was good and well worth the price. The service was superb. read more

Great food-- we love the dumplings and the egg rolls! Consistently good service. Environment is warm and welcoming.

Went last week for lunch and once again, excellent food! The egg drop soup is the best you can get in this area! My family has loved this place for many years and this visit did not disappoint. Their food is top notch on flavor, temperature and price. The service is always great as well. We will continue to come here for lunch!! read more

Had a great lunch that really is the closest that I have had since being in china. I can't explain it, but the flavors weren't ...over salty or sugary like others in the area. Service was amazing, and the atmosphere was quiet off the beaten path. Looking for are to going back. read more

Regular customer for a takeout. I ordered a house special Fried Rice. They missed the spot on cooking it. They are usually consistent. It was tasteless and I had to add my own seasoning. Mr. Wu needs to take notice on the quality of the food that he has been cooking for years. read more

Wonderful meal for 10 tonight! Everyone loved it....6 adults & 4 children! The pan fried pork dumplings & spring rolls were amazing, hot & sour soup was delicious, and all of the entrees were superb! My favorite was the Steamed Sea Bass! This will definitely be a regular Chinese restaurant for my family, friends, & me! read more

This is definitely one of the better Chinese places in Memphis. It's just want you're looking for and expecting. The Hunan beef was good. A little heavy on the use of fish sauce but still good. Sweet and sour chicken was great. They have a house made sweet and sour sauce. Excellent. The only disappointment was the spring roll. It was just ok. Good value. Would eat again read more

I ordered sweet tea with lemons, shrimp lo mien, and spring rolls. My sister ordered a mixed meat and vegetables basket. The spring rolls had meat in it. My dish was lukewarm. My sister's meats and vegetables were edible but the basket made of Chinese noodles were hard and the white rice was a big lump of glob. We had to ask for lemons and a to go box. It was too small for the meat/ veggies basket. We requested two containers and a bag. It was thrown on the table. I took the ticket to the cashier after having the food paid for. The cashier told me I could have left it. I said I was coming towards the exit anyway. He said in reply, you should have left it as he walked to the opposite in of the counter looking in that direction drinking a beverage. He was not hospitable and showed no response of courtesy. I could and will not recommend this restaurant. read more

Just ok. There are tons of other places as good or better with a much lower price point. I get that its in Germantown but I don't care. As long as I keep my eyes open and my senses keen I can find some gems in the inner city that will blow this place away. Additionally, I hate all of the the damn fountains! I'm just putting that out there. The dish was served beautifully with a bunch of sauce to use, but the food I ordered already had sauce so I'm not sure what it was for. It included a little salad and soup. It thought it was all very mediocre in taste. Hot and sour was too sweet but still hit the spot. Other food was just blah, meh, blah , meh.... My server was a white guy with multiple piercings and very little personality. I understand why as I was the only patron dining in during my entire visit. I was there at 1:30 on a weekday. I'll admit I didn't try the authentic Asian dishes but oh well. I wasn't presented that menu either. It's not my thing. Moving along. It is worth three stars though. Others will enjoy it I'm sure. read more

This is Cantonese and it is delicious!! The restaurant is clean, service was excellent. The egg rolls are crispy and flavorful. The orange chicken is a huge portion and my kid's' favorite. I recommend the chicken in Tangy Sauce, the Kung Pao, the Szechuan, and the Royal Panda Shrimp. I have eaten here many times. All the dishes that say "spicy" are barely spicy so if you like it hot, you will have to request that. I haven't had anything here that I don't like. It's all satisfying and comfort food. read more

Highly recommend it for their vegetable fried rice and shrimp/fish items. Flexible opening hours is a plus. Friendly clean atmosphere.

Stands apart from typical Oriental restaurants. Excellent fresh ingredients come through to produce tasty dishes. Very good service with attractive prices. Highly recommended. read more

This is the only Chinese restaurant I can eat at. Sweet n sour chicken is amazing. I frequent high-end restaurants and I am telling you this is really good Chinese food. Been eating here for over 30 years now and have not sent a dish back once. I don't even know who a close second would be. It's hard to convince my friends to meet me at a Chinese restaurant, but everyone I've brought here agrees with me. I met my friend here today and he said the duck is "really good". He should know since He is an avid duck hunter. I will say that I miss seeing the original owners here. I haven't seen the lady with the very long black hair in a couple of years. I suspect they sold the place and don't manage it anymore. I've noticed that the restaurant isn't spotless like it used to be. The floor is usually dirty. We got here when they opened this morning and I had to ask a server to sweep up the very obvious pile of trash and food under our table, which must have been left from yesterday. read more

First impressions made me happy, it felt like I had gone back in time. The ambiance was quite ( except for the lady at the next booth talking about her pending lawsuit, geez, TMI ! ) Back to the review. It just felt very comfortable..... The lunch was ample starting with choice of soup. I picked the vegetable, served hot ( thank you) with crispy fresh veggies but the broth lacked salt. Lunch came quickly, I ordered the Kung pao chicken with fried rice. The lunch came with an egg roll that was fried way in advance, a little salad & Sugar "donut", and two dipping sauces. For 9.00 it was a little smorgasbord. The Kung pao was the star and very flavorful, the rice was dry, salad good, donut unnecessary. Although there were misses they get 4 stars because of a couple successful dishes & a super sweet server. read more

Excellent service always! The food is delicious and their presentation is very nice. Very authentic Peking duck

I ordered from there for the first time today. I called in my order and the lady was rude while taking my order. I go and pick up this 54$ order and the portions were enough to feed my two children. The same lady that took my order was the one I paid and she still had a horrible attitude and very snobby. I asked was sauce in the bag and she didn't answer me until she counted out my change,the waiter did and I had 1 mustard and three soy sauce and I asked for a few more and she had an attitude with that. I will Not be going back read more
