It was also pretty disorganized inside, but again, it is definitely geared towards takeout. Something else, I found humorous. I called my to-go order in, a gentleman answered i gave my order. He asked the customary "anything else?" I replied no and instead of giving me a time or thanking me or even saying goodbye, he just hung up. I actually stayed on the phone for a few seconds because I thought maybe he was just adding up my total or something, but no. Let me also add that when I was there, they were friendly. Hey, we all have our way. We ordered lo mein, curry chicken and egg rolls. Overall, it was pretty good, especially for the general Orlando area, where it is hard to find great or even good New York style Chinese takeout. I will give it four stars for pretty good (though my curry chicken was a bit heavy on grease) food, friendly enough in person (but not do much on the phone) service and a cluttered by convenient location.

The drink was good with some spices, but instead of a craft ice, they just used regular crushed ice, making the drink a bit watered down.

However, the noodles were quite chewy. The meats included shrimp, pork sausage, and chicken. The chicken and shrimp were enjoyable, but the sausage could have used a bit of a punch. I was able to get some sambal for heat, but it lacked flavor and it was a bit gritty too. At least there was an ample amount such that I could take some home for the next day.

I think my expectations were too high the first time, and as someone who grew up in the Bay Area in California, I really should have not expected true authentic Asian food. The first time, I ordered the lunch special orange chicken, lunch special the bbq short ribs with wings and a Miami Roll. Right off the bat, it's a great deal as the lunch specials come with your choice of entree, egg fried rice, two crab rangoons, a pork egg roll, choice of soup, some wonton strips and your basic fortune cookie and condiments all for around $12.99 or more depending on the entree. My boyfriend loved the orange chicken, it's a lot saucier than I expected and definitely better quality than Panda Express (no hate to them). On the other hand, the bbq ribs were very dry and extremely hard to eat, but the sauce in them was nice. The chicken wings were also dry and the portions for that lunch special weren't great so I wouldn't recommend that. The Miami Roll was an absolute waste of money. The fish did not taste fresh and the sushi rice was hard and way undercooked. I will definitely steer away from the sushi from now on. Since they have a pretty large menu and the service was good, I decided to give them another try. For my second visit, I got the lunch special pork lo mein. The roast pork was delicious and the noodles were soft and chewy. Now this is a dish I would come back for if I was craving some takeout. Overall, it's a nice place I'd pick up from out of convenience and for a decent meal with good portion sizes. I'd say from experience and just reading other Yelp reviews, depending on what you order it can be a hit or miss.
