When I heated up some leftovers I combined the gailan with the lo mein which really elevated the whole thing. It's like you can taste the love that they cook into the food. Five stars!

Over all this restaurant is a must try, easily one of our favorites!

I ordered the crispy dumplings (pork) and spring rolls as appetizers, and the spicy noodle soup as my entree. My server came to take my order, and brought me the items as they were ready. The entree came out before the appetizers. The spicy noodle soup was spicy (as named) and it was good, but it was incredibly oily and the noodles were overcooked, so I didn't eat much of it. I would definitely recommend ordering this with rice, or taking it home and making your own. The dumplings and spring rolls were crispy, but nothing special. I did like the duck sauce they had -- I would have asked my server for more of it, but she was busy in the back or something, not sure. I wish she would've checked in on me a bit more during the visit so I could have gotten more napkins and sauce. The service was alright. I wish I would've gotten checked on a little bit more, but she was nice and helped me pack my noodles to go. Overall, this spot wasn't terrible, but if I had to choose, I'd probably try another place.

It's been about a year or so since we've been coming here fairly regularly and I really cannot complain about anything specific. Most meals are excellent with a I miss now and then, but overall, I would never complain about that.

We noticed the decor had changed (yes, I said it had been many years) and it was quite nice! We were seated promptly and placed our drink order (tea came with lunch). We ordered Rangoon as a starter. The lunch specials came with soup and egg roll, and fried rice. DH ordered his litmus test dish for American style Chinese- General Tso chicken. The portion was generous. The sauce was tasty. The chicken pieces tasted like your average frozen nuggets tossed in sauce. It's that familiar "seasoning" to the chicken and coating- iykyk. Not bad at all, just not the best. He enjoyed his egg drop soup. I opted for Hunan Beef. The sauce was thicker than I prefer, with an almost gelatinous consistency. The hot and sour soup was nice, a little more sour than hot. We both thought the fried rice that came with lunch was a little bland. Maybe the entree version is better? Each special was under $10, and it's definitely a great value.

DO NOT EAT FROM HERE!!! While using their restroom to wash my hands, their cook dropped pieces of pre-made chicken on to a dirty bucket on the ground, close to an open back door, with knats flying around. This dipshit (the cook), right in front of me, picked the pieces up and tossed them back in to the tray full of good chicken. On the spot, I ask the guy if he literally just did that in front of me. He didn't speak English. I then told the owner of what happened and he immediately got defensive. I told him he needs to throw the whole tray away and he asked why. After I told him why, he jumped to the "I know how to run a business" and "why do you want me to throw it away right now". Are u kidding me!?! Oh but it gets better. When the owner realized I was not leaving (when we actually ordered/intended to eat there) he went back to the kitchen to ask the cook of what he did. After he came back to the front, he then asked why I wanted him to throw the chicken away if I had ordered the Mongolian Beef. And...for some reason he then was trying to give some excuse about them being a take out place and that I asked to use his restroom to wash my hands. As if for some reason it was somehow my fault. He then said fine and that he would throw it away. He asked me to go to the back with him so I could witness. The cook followed us as well and when we got there, the cook thought it would help to give the both of us an instant replay as to what had happened. Idiot literally grabs a piece of chicken from the tray, places it again on the dirty bucket, and then picks it back up and tosses it back on the tray....AGAIN!!! As if to say it was no big deal. I wouldn't believe it. I even told the owner, "did this dude just literally do that in front of me again"? After that, for some reason, the owner walks all the way back to the front, speaks to some guy at a table (who I already had confirmed was not an employee or the owner), and then goes back behind the counter. I then turned to take a few pics and get information down cause I said I was gonna report them. He said to do whatever I wanted to do. Well...next thing I know, I hear the register open and he then tells me to take my money back and to leave. Thinking that was the end of it all, he then walks passed me and aggressively picks up my bagged to go food and takes it with him. All the while NEVER THROWING THE CONTAMINATED TRAY OF CHICKEN AWAY!!!! read more

Where do I even begin with this food? Walking into the restaurant was awkward--kids running around, just a weird vibe overall. But let's get to the food. The rice? Straight-up terrible, like dog water--just nasty. And the main course, whether you call it lemon pepper or lemon chicken, was even worse. Easily one of the most unappetizing meals I've ever had. Overall, I'd rate this place a 0.5 out of 10. Definitely not recommended. Disgusting. read more
