It's a fairly small unassuming place with 50 years of history. The chef Annie received her own day of celebration from the Wyandotte county mayor. They do a hefty amount of carryout business - and unless you had Paul Bunyans appetite you'll be carrying out leftovers for a day or maybe a few days. Portion sizes are HUGE! Prices are reasonable and the selection is immense. I went with the beef and shrimp lomein and had to get a shrimp and chicken hand made egg roll. I also got a bacon jalepeno Rangoon as well as a chili fire one. - they have 6 different kinds of Rangoon. Lomein - meat was tender, veg still has some crunch. Flavor was great! As were the egg rolls and Rangoon. Anyway. If you're in the area or even to just try something different or get take out for date night. Hit them up. * if you're looking for fancy - this isn't it. You have to ring a bell to get in the door. This is an institution in the neighborhood - If atmosphere matters - get carryout.

If you are not familiar with what certain things are, have no fear, the menu and tvs in the restaurant have pictures of EVERYTHING. It looks like a little mom and pop shop and feels like it as well. We got the Shrimp Spring Rolls, chicken dumplings, ABC Chicken, green beans, Combination Chow mein, and coconut roll. Everything was really good and our servers were very kind. We ordered with the mindset of having leftovers, which we did, but could help but eat the entire ABC Chicken entree . If you are a green bean fan, theirs are a must. The spring rolls and dumplings didn't stand a chance either lol. The combination chow mein was very good as well. The coconut roll was a perfect super light dessert for my wife and I. Just to give you an idea of price, the meal plus 2 sodas was around $70. A little pricy, but the quality made it worth it. And it would be cheaper if we stuck to the Dim Sum menu.

The general tso chicken was soggy and didn't have any crispness to its outside layer. The broccoli was also limp and lifeless and didn't have any of the flavor from the sauce or the chicken. The rice had very little vegetables and tasted like burnt soy-sauce. The best part of the experience was the egg drop soup and egg rolls. Those had a great flavor and the egg drop soup was a surprise because most of the restaurants here have a horrible smell to their soup and flavor, like it has soured. This is another decent middle of the road Chinese restaurant where you get exactly what you expect from Chinese food in missouri.

Their menu consists of a lot of dishes, and some are quite unique .. you don't usually see items like bird's nest dishes at most Chinese restaurants around here except for maybe Bolings. Me and my husband visited on a Saturday night around 8 pm and really devoured our meal. The menu can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but you honestly can't go wrong with stir fries at any Chinese restaurant. For appetizers, we ordered chicken egg rolls, which were hefty and filling. For the main course, I ordered the chicken in black bean stir fry, and my husband got the shrimp Kung Pao chicken stir fry. We paired both with steamed rice. The black bean chicken was rich and earthy, with that deep, slightly funky flavor from the fermented black beans. It was very umami, salty and complimented nicely with the fresh, crisp vegetables and well-cooked chicken. I really liked it. The shrimp Kung Pao was spicy and tangy, with perfectly cooked shrimp (the fried shrimp covering was chefs kiss) and crispy veggies. Overall, we really enjoyed the food. The egg rolls were about $4 for two pieces, and the stir fries were around $17+ each. The portions are quite large compared to other places in the area, so the pricing seemed reasonable. For 2 main course dishes your bill could easily reach up to $40. Otherwise, The restaurant was clean, the staff was kind, and service was quick. It also wasn't too crowded when we visited. I would rate the service 4/5, mainly because we had to ask for silverware, condiments, and tissues separately. The food, though, is definitely a 5/5. Highly recommended! I will definitely return to have more dishes like beef chow fun, the soups and last, but not least BIRDS NEST!!

I would have preferred a tad more spice and I do feel like I can get similar ones around town. The last thing I tried was the General Tso chicken. This was probably the best I have ever had. It was perfectly crispy but the inside was filled with fresh tender chicken. I have been craving this every day since I first tried it here. I cannot say enough about how amazing this place was.
