Are they going…read moreto compare to other dumpling spots in LA or SF - prob not, but their service and some key dishes are great. Partner and I ordered 4 dishes total. Beef Noodle Soup (4/5) - the Soup and Beef were Meh, I've had better, but the noodles were fresh which was nice. Pork Soup Dumpling (4/5) - decent soup dumplings, the soup flavor was good, but wish there was more soup within each dumpling. But overall flavor was succulent. Chongqing Chicken (4/5) - def not a specialty, but tasty. I've def had better where the chicken was a bit more crispy and Wonton in Spicy Soup (5/5) - this was the standout dish, the spicy soup sauce was phenomenal and perfectly complemented the wontons. I'd def come back for this dish alone. Bonus - Chocolate Dumplings (5/5) - provided this as a free dessert, which TBH should be on the menu (if it isn't already), the chocolate flavor was so delicious and had the nice pork soup dumpling type skin. Service was very attentive as well - def better than your typical 'chinese' style service of quick/brusque servie - for sure. They repeatedly checked water/tea refills. Overall 4.5/5

They're perfect--not too heavy, not too over-seasoned, with the perfect amount of protein, and they also heartily pack their containers. The orange peel chicken and sweet n sour pork are also stellar. I've had many of their menu items and most of them really are good. I come here about once a week or so. They're affordable and they never disappoint! Service is incredibly fast, and they never get my order wrong, so that's a big plus. You can only order through the phone unfortunately, as they're not utilizing any food service apps, but it's not that bad of a thing.

I'd still consider getting this again though Spicy wontons with chili sauce (8/10): good but not the best I've had. Leaned more Szechuan spicy, which isn't my fave! Black pepper beef (10/10): soooo crispy and flavorful!!! Crispy sweet and sour pork slices (10/10): sooooo good. Loved the flavor. Perfect balance between sweet and spicy Eggplant (10/10): soft & had a really bold but not too salty flavor Yangzhou fried rice (8.5/10): fresh! Nothing too unique though.

I ordered the almond chicken lunch special, which came with fried rice, wontons, and an egg roll. Everything was delicious. The egg roll had a lovely hint of curry, the chicken was flavorful without being greasy or overly sauced, and the vegetables were perfectly crisp instead of soggy. The fried rice had a delicate smoky flavor that complemented everything perfectly. I also added a side of hot and sour soup with wonton chips and was delighted. All of it tasted freshly made, which was easy to believe with the constant chopping sounds coming from the kitchen. It has total takeout or casual dine-in vibes: small, cozy, no frills, just really good food and friendly service. What makes it even more special is the heart behind it. The owner pretty much does it all, cooking, taking orders, and serving, with one other person helping. You can feel the pride and care in every dish. They have been serving Poway for 35 years, and it shows. In a world full of chain Panda-style fast food, places like this are rare in San Diego now. A true hidden gem. Big fan, and I will definitely be back.

I got the Lumpia nachos, ube canolis, lumpia and one of their specials that I believe is something of a deep fried shumai. The lumpia nachos leaned sweet. The sauce that you can optionally dip your lumpia in was already pre-added. The chips are wonton chips. It has a good crunch. Getting normal lumpia is probably the better move here. For that I ended up getting two meats because they were out of one of them. I can't remember which but I'm fairly sure that whatever is the more popular one, is the better one. There was a stark difference between the two. I enjoyed the ube canolis and the special. I don't think I have to get either again but that's fine because they have so many other items along with an almost overwhelming number of specials.

It was $76. Ordered fried rice, chow mein, one shrimp entree, orange chicken and house chicken. My wife picked it up and noticed the house chicken was not in the bag. Had to drive back to the restaurant and was told I ordered house CHOW MEIN. (No, I did not! 4 of us were sitting here and the other 3 people overheard the order). So had to wait while they begrudgingly took back the house chow mein I did not order and made the house chicken entree. When we finally got back home with the now cold food, after 2 bites we threw ALL of it in the trash. The orange chicken and house chicken were inexplicably dried out and stringy, almost like jerky. They also put those 2 entrees, right off the open flame wok, in to PLASTIC FOAM CLAMSHELL CONTAINERS. The heat from the entrees literally melt and warp the foam containers, and the food tastes like plastic. These type of single use foam containers were banned - ILLEGAL - in San Diego FOUR YEARS AGO!!! WHY are they still being used here? The chow mein and fried rice were also horribly, chokingly dry. And the shrimp tasted very fishy, like it had seen better days. I live in the area and used to come here all the time, then stopped several years ago due to a HUGE downgrade in the quality of their food. It has now gotten even worse, if thats even possible.

While we were waiting, the place had a lot of pick up orders so we thought the food must be tasty. We ordered the salt and pepper shrimp ($19!) and the house chow mein. We were served on PAPER PLATES and never got water refills. While we were eating, the server came to ask how everything was and we said fine. Apparently she didn't like our answer because she then said "DELICIOUS, HUH?? It's delicious!!" It felt awkward. The shrimp was overpriced and not that great. The house chow mein was ok. Fast forward 48 hours and I have severe food poisoning from their shrimp. It has knocked me out for two days and I may need to go to hospital since I can't keep anything down. I wish we never set foot in this place. We won't be returning.
