I've been coming to this spot for over 10 years, and it never fails to impress. In a world where portions seem to be getting smaller and service is hit-or-miss, this place is a total breath of fresh air. They treat you like family the second you walk through the door. They are always incredibly friendly, fast, and genuinely care about your experience. They literally pack the containers until they can barely close the lid. You definitely get your money's worth and then some. After a decade of eating here, the quality hasn't dipped once--the food is always fresh, hot, and delicious. If you're looking for a reliable, small local business to support, this is it. Here's to another 10 years! read more

The staff here are very friendly, the food is good, and the portion sizes are generous. It's not a very big place, but there's usually enough seating available. read more

Great food and great price and they staff is always so respectful and in great mood and they also have good selection of food

stopped by this place for a quick dinner. The food was okay overall, nothing amazing but not bad either. The orange chicken had a decent flavor, though a bit too sweet for my taste. Fried rice was good, fresh and not too oily. Service was polite but a little slow, and the place could be cleaner. Prices are reasonable for the portion size. I'd probably come back if I'm in the area, but it's not somewhere I'd go out of my way for. read more

Parking: good, 3 reserved spots. Presentation: mediocre. Quality: below average. Taste: sweet. Customer service: pleasant, greeted hello. Jalapeño chicken 2.5/5 Orange chicken 2.5/5 Chow mein 3.5/5 I will never return. I didn't even take a photo for social media because the presentation looked sloppy. read more

Friendly staff, clean, and the best Chinese food for the price. I got the 2 piece combo with chow mein, orange chicken, and teriyaki chicken. Orange chicken is a must. read more

New to the area and had been constantly coming here for food. $12 for 3 item combo and I can eat that all day. Cheap and delicious. I get my veggies and proteins here so I don't even have to cook. Parking is a little hassle but there's 2 private parking spot in the small square for this location right in front of their door. Try the salt and pepper porkchop, green bean chicken and kung pao chicken. read more

I decided to come here entirely on a whim after researching potential local haunts for barbecue pork. I'm pretty happy with what I got! The woman behind the counter with her cute bowl cut smiled from ear to ear and began to work on my order immediately. Extremely fair priced, good portions in terms of value for money and as far as Chinese fast food goes it was exactly what I was looking for. And if you're curious, the barbecue pork was juicy and pretty tender. On a juicy/tenderness scale of 1 to 10 I'd give it a solid 7 which is good score coming from a nitpick like me (haha) it might even be better if I come a little earlier given that I've just come at the end of the night. Cant wait to come back and find out I absolutely will be back. read more

Best spot in the valley very good I recommend. Very crispy orange chicken. Very good customer service she's always greeting us with a smile and saying "heyyyy" honestly nicest customer service I had in a while. read more

There food is always so so so good and fresh I like the owner she friendly and nice i eat there food every day. And the place it's easy to relax. read more

I went to this place 1 minute before their closing time and like other independent business owners, instead of throwing their unsold/left over food, that they'll sell them for discounted price. Which makes sense to me. If I own a restaurant, I will sell the unsold/left over food for half the price 15 minutes before closing time. That way, I made a little profit, my community has happy belly and I would be able to showcase how flavorful the food that I sell even though it's been sitting there for a long time. BUT NO. I WAS DISAPPOINTED. Not only that the food was already RUBBER-ish texture (since it's been sitting there for a long time, it's very oily and salty and at top of that, they didn't give me discount on food that's technically not FRESHLY MADE. OPINION: My point here is that business practice doesn't make sense UNLESS, they recook/reheat their left overs for tomorrow's early lunch customers - again last part is just my opinion. If that's even true, I think they should disclose that info to their customers. read more

Tried this place for the first time today! My mom was craving Chinese food and my brother recommended this place. I was a little hesitant considering that I'm pretty picky with Chinese food but we decided to give it a shot since we were hungry and wanted to eat ASAP. We ordered chow mein, orange chicken, chicken kung pao, chicken and mushroom, steamed rice, won ton soup, and egg rolls. I only tried the chow mein, orange chicken and kung pao. Chow mein was a little disappointing, a little bland and just tasted like noodles. But the kung pao and orange chicken was good. The orange chicken was tangy and the kung pao was flavorful. The servings were huge! They seriously fill the boxes up! You're definitely getting a good deal and can probably even share one plate with a friend and both end up being satisfied. Since we ordered the over the phone, they must have seen how much food we were ordering because they included sauces, forks and even threw in some plates! I love egg rolls and was pretty excited to have some today considering that it's been a while, however I wouldn't be coming back for egg rolls. Everything else (minus chow mein)- yes. Overall I would come back. Food was good and quick! read more

Favorite Chinese food place! The nice woman that is or owns the spot is always so friendly and cheerful! The food is always pretty fresh and so tasty... So good OMG! Not to mention that the prices are extremely reasonable! Dollar drinks?! I think YES and you get a large plate for under 10 dollars. Can't get enough of this place. read more

DO NOT EAT HERE UNLESS YOU WANT SEVERE FOOD POISONING! My boyfriend & I tried this place 2 days ago & both woke up very sick! The good reviews brought us here, but we noticed they're all mostly 2-3 years old after we got sick! The restaurant looks super dirty & run down but we gave them a chance. Biggest regret! If you want liquid diarrhea for 2 days straight come here. Also the food was trash, can't even say it was worth it :( read more

The lady and man at the front are so so sweet! About a week ago I went stopped by but I only had Apple Pay so I went in asked the lady if the accepted Apple Pay and she said yes so I go on and order. As I'm about to pay she tells me it's card only & I told her I'd be back with my card (since I only lived down a few streets). She insisted I go back the next day!! And the amount of food you get for the price! Doesn't get any better read more

Do you like fast food panda express type Chinese food? This place has got you covered. The food is decent, but they'll load you up with as much as will fit inside a box. The options are pretty standard. Beef & Broccoli, BBQ pork, Orange Chicken, mushroom chicken, etc. You can order 1, 2, or 3 item combos which come with fried rice or chow mien. Alternatively, you can order items a la cart. This can be differentiated from the nearby Pacoima Chinese Food & Teriyaki as this spot does have a TV and the cashier is one friendly Chinese couple instead of one Chinese man. You order at an L shaped counter with a soda machine at the end. At this spot you can see into the kitchen, so you can try to find out what they put into their sauces. Also despite having less places to sit, the seats are more comfortable. They have pads on the seats instead of just plain wood. read more

I've been eating Asiean food these days. So, yesterday I ordered my lunch from this restaurant. My roommate recommended me to get their Salt and pepper shrimp and orange chicken. We shared of course. Our food arrived steaming hot, delicious and perfectly correct. read more

Customer service is great. I have tried even better Chinese food but I would go back, best of all my kids loved it.

I mean for 6 bucks at a hole in the wall I got what I paid for. Taste wasn't that great but very friendly service.

My wife loves this place! So I'm happy. Nice employees. I recommend you try their shrimp and wings, cheap and good. read more

I really recommend this chinese food restaurant. read more

I've been coming here since 2014 because it's very close to my house. If I don't feel like cooking, I buy it from here because it's convenient, affordable, and tasty. I always get a plate of chow mein and mushroom chicken. The lady who works there is very friendly and she takes her time to pack as much as she can in your plate. I come here once or twice a month and I will tell my friends to come here as well. read more

The food is bomb! It's a small hole in the wall type of place, not appealing to the eye but you shouldn't judge it based on the look. I'm most definitely going back. read more

Very yummy food and price is wallet friendly and the service just make the experience so much better definitely will be pit stopping here again read more

One of the most friendliest fast food restaurants. You are always greeted with a warm smile and the restaurant owner makes you feel welcomed. The alluring aroma of freshly cooked fried rice and steam hot chow mien just entices your senses. Just thinking about makes me salivate. As you are ordering you can see the chief cooking whatever dish is running low. For this reason you are granted to some of the freshest food in the area. I would recommend ordering one of their house shops. They are filled with loads of vegetables and really fill you up. The restaurant owner really gets to know your food preferences. For example whenever I go she offers me the soup because that one my favorite meals. When I go with my brother she offers to serve him white steamed rice because he prefers that over the fried rices. During rush hour it may take a little long to get your food since there is only one server. Dining space is limited but perfect for a quick lunch with friends or a casual date. Parking is also limited but not a big problem. The prices are a little high but completely worth it. read more

Honestly the best Chinese fast food around. Most places have gotten really cheap, not this place. With woks and cooking going on in front of you freshness is reassured. Can compare quality to some higher end places but the price is unbelievable. There is literally a Chinese restaurant next to my place of work and I'd rather travel 3 city's down to get to this place. Portion are incredible. read more
