    Chicken 9. Pho Chicken
    Emma O.

    This is the worst Thai / Vietnamese food I've probably ever had! I got the rice soup and the chicken pho.... I don't know what they use for their meats but the chicken and the beef were very questionable. Very rubber like and not meat like at all. The rice noodles were not very good either. Broth wasn't bad. I was really excited because they labeled their pad Thai as gluten free and have dietary labels on their menu.... This was a big bummer. At least the herb garnishes were fresh.

    Pad Se-lew Dinner (Beef)
    Mai L.

    I order via DoorDash so I'm not sure about what this location looks like, parking, etc. However, my food was ready pretty quickly on a Friday night - prime time to order dinner. I ordered the Pad See Lew with Beef and the Asian Chili hot wings. It was a lot of food! The pad see lew had lots of sauce and beef. The noodles were al dente style cooked but good. The chicken wings were cooked well - crispy outside with juicy inside - however, they were not spicy or had much taste. There was siracha and hoisin container (like what you'd put in pho as dipping sauce but I did not use it.

    Panang Curry Dinner
    Tes H.

    I read mixed yelp reviews before heading to this restaurant. I gathered info on the best and worst dishes. So, I sadly didn't order pad Thai, but I did order pangang curry from other's recommendations. It. Was. Wonderful. The spice level was mild-medium and it was just enough heat to give that slow burn between bites. Of course curry is always in huge portions so I ate it the next day and it was even better. 5/5 for this dish. Next, we had the orange chicken. I saw 0 reviews for it but we decided on something sweet to offset the spicy, savory curry. The chicken seemed of good quality and it was perfectly crispy. Every piece had a crunch coated in that sweet orange glaze. It was perfectly cooked and we were pleasantly surprised. The broccoli was perfectly cooked but a little cold when we got it, 4/5 for this dish. The service was prompt, drinks were filled immediately, and the waitress even turned the tv off behind me when I asked to turn it down some so we could not talk over it - which I thought was a kind gesture. Inside it's a pretty clean and basic restaurant. Perfect for a hang with friends or a quick lunch.

    Chicken Coconut Soup

    Got the chicken coconut soup on a cozy fall day. I love a good broth and it really hit the spot :)

    Quick service and friendly staff. The beef had a weird taste to it though. Very chewy consistency and just not the best. The combination noodle bowl was good, shrimp flavor was in point! Pho was good too.

The dining room is still closed, they essentially keep the dining room as a storage closet lol. You walk in to pick up your order and they have tables blocking the entry, that's where you pay for your food. The portions are still as giant as ever, and the prices are still affordable. My wife and I had a hankering the other day for our old stomping grounds, so we jetted over there to pickup an order. It was ready in 10 minutes and two meals ran us $32. I think I pay $32 for a good cup of coffee these days!!!!!! I kid, I kid. The meal lasts you for days, you really get two giant sized portions out of it. It will probably last some of you three days. They don't skimp out here and it's incredible. They serve Asian fusion, Chinese American meals that are addictive. Or is that the MSG??? Probably so, and that's why it's delicious.

(Note, they are closed on Tuesdays.) I placed our pickup order on a Saturday night & it was ready in 15 minutes. The restaurant is for take-out only. Our food was in containers & placed in a box. I appreciated this since there was no way anything was going to tip over & spill. Very friendly phone & counter service as well. Note, you get six free Cheese Wontons when your order is more than $40. We ordered three different entrees with three different sides - Steamed White Rice, Fried Rice & Lo Mein Noodles. The sides were good, however the fried rice didn't seem fried, it was white rice with soy sauce. The Sweet & Sour Shrimp Entree was tasty - the shrimp were medium sized, cooked perfectly with a delicious sauce. The Sesame Chicken Entree was even better, the chicken was moist & tender. The beef in the Mongolian Beef Entree was great however there were way too many onions in the dish. Overall, a very satisfying meal.

I am so glad that they are so consistent and have not changed recipes or adjusted seasonings. Ordered our two favorites - pickled pepper beef and mapo tofu.

Also love that they have quality rice here.

    Decided to come here because I was craving Chinese food and heard good things about this place…read more Figured I'd give it a try. We ordered the fried tofu (with peppers and onions), orange chicken, fried fish fillet, and veggie delight (mixed veggies). The fried fish fillet was definitely the standout. Perfectly crispy on the outside with a light, tangy layer of sauce that added flavor without making it soggy. Easily my favorite dish of the meal. The fried tofu was also really solid and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The peppers and onions complemented it well without overpowering the tofu itself. The orange chicken was okay. I tend to compare orange chicken to Panda Express (probably unfair, but it's my benchmark), and this one didn't quite hit that same balance of crispiness and sauce. I think if it had a bit more meat within each piece, would be better. The mixed vegetables were decent but not something I'd order again. They felt a bit drenched in sauce and didn't have much depth in flavor. One of the highlights of the visit was meeting an elderly woman who helps out when it gets busy. She mentioned she was the former owner. She was incredibly kind, and we ended up having a really nice conversation in Mandarin. That personal touch made the experience even more memorable. Otherwise, really nice venue with lots of space and tables. Waiters always refilled my water, which is a good plus. Also gave me fresh rice when I took the leftovers to go. Overall, a solid meal with a couple standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the fried fish fillet and tofu. Will be back to try their other dishes.
