You pay when you first arrive with cash or card (they only take visa and mastercard).

I would bring cash to tip your server with at your table. After paying, you can seat yourself anywhere and a server will come by and take your beverage order. The buffet includes unlimited soft drinks, drip coffee, and hot tea. Their Dr. Pepper is extra syrupy compared to normal fountain drinks, would recommend! Throughout the meal, the server will clear your empty plates and at the end of the meal they will drop off fortune cookies and towelettes. Crab days are Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. During these days they serve lil crabs. There is also a build your own noodle station where you can choose your mix-ins and sauces, and they'll fry it up for you. The fried rice is solid and the garlic toast is shockingly really good. Food is pretty fresh and warm, and there are people constantly refilling trays and cleaning the buffet.

Lemongrass chicken was really good and not easily available at other places so I would go back just for that. Chicken wings were so hot and crispy! We ordered them spicy but they were not spicy. The sauce was more sweet and sour. Ask for chili oil but be careful and only use a little because that is spicy! They do not have tap water, bottles available for purchase.

I really liked the egg rolls -- you can tell they are made in house. They're chocked full of ingredients and are a good size. The moo goo gai pan had good amount of both chicken and vegetables.

The dish also included vegetables. I ordered via their website and scheduled a pick up -- the order was ready on time.

This is the best Asian food in town...Dakota county...maybe Minnesota. Corinne knows how to cook so many different types of food so well. Faves: chow fun...chili shrimp...bulgogi...the soups...OK, pretty much everything I've tried is very good. Everyone I've brought here has also enjoyed the food and bakery (the BBQ pork buns, OMG!) The best thing about moving to Apple Valley is it's near Satay2Go and in their delivery area!! Eat-in dining room is very small, but most folks take the food to go, as the name implies. I recommend this restaurant to everyone I meet. GO THERE NOW!! read more

This is nice little place. The food is fresh and good. I am very picky about rice and the coconut rice is great. I had the chicken satay, rice, goyza combo. Excellent. I also had one of the steamed pork dumplings which was good as well. I really like the pictures. I think it is a great way to help people order. The staff is also very helpful. I want to try the lemon grass chicken wings next. I went with my aunt and she is a vegetarian and she even had choices. She had the spring rolls (the vege version) and she loved them. read more

We usually order the spring rolls, a filling meat salad in a rice wrapper. I also like to get a lunch menu item that has a samosa on the side. The samosa filling is hearty with just enough Indian spice kick, fried suitably enough in a wonton wrapper. The lunch menu has a reliable selection of popular Asian dishes. I've enjoyed the Chinese chicken dishes (sesame, General Tso's, etc.) with flavorful sauces that don't drown out the fresh vegetables. Last time I went I ordered General Tso's "spicy," which would probably be about "medium" in Little Mekong--just right for me. I was a little disappointed that the noodle dish on the lunch menu seemed to lack moisture and flavor, but mostly I've been happy with the food. Sometime I'd like to go back for dinner, as those dishes seem more adventurous. The teas complement the dishes nicely, especially when I order something fried. I usually have the zingy ginger tea, a favorite for both my friend and me. Recently I found Nina's hot lemonade surprisingly refreshing on a hot day. The service is friendly and attentive. The space is airy and fresh. I come in hungry, and leave full and satisfied. There is not much more we can ask of a regular lunch place, and we'll keep coming back!

I hate to be this honest when it's bad... but this $70 take-out was all thrown away and I hope this saves other people from making the same mistake... or from being shown how bad food can be made when people don't know better... or care.
