Came to try the viral salt and pepper chicken wings…read more Came for lunch and got the egg drop soup and it was yummy. Got the bbq pork and it came with rice and a spring roll and I chicken wing. The rice was okay. The bbq pork was so good. The chicken wing is a good wing but nothing really special. The orange chicken wasn't good. Maybe it was over cooked.

I really love the food here. Coming here, my boyfriend and his family has said they've been going…read morehere for over 30+ years and after first bite of their salt and pepper wings, I'll be coming here for another 30 year as well! House fried rice, chow mein, green beans, Mongolian beef, and most importantly their chicken wings are our go-to! My son also loves the sweet and sour sauce they provide and has to have it on his plate. Being authentic Chinese restaurant comes with the price and I won't complain cause the flavors justify it. Would absolutely come here once a week it I could :) I love how big the place is, I'd like to say the handful of times we've come here and with a big group, we didn't have to wait as there's plenty of tables! Customer service is fairly quick, service is fast, and attentive.

Been awhile since I had been down here. The last few times in San Diego, I had been craving the…read moresalt and pepper wings from here, but didn't have time to come down to get them. That changed this trip. I went twice in the 4 days we were there! First night I got just an order of salt and pepper wings. $23.50 or so, and they hooked it up with about15 wings (says 13 to an order, but we got a couple more than that, I think). The wings were PERFECT! It was my Sons first time trying them. He instantly fell in love! We ate them outside and went to town. Cant get a better wing, anywhere. Large, crispy, salty, garlicky. Perfect wings! Second time there, I went with the lunch special for the salt and pepper wings. You get 10 wings, and a container of plain fried rice. Total was like $18.50. Once again, wings were bomb! I love scooping the garlic and green onions on top of the wings and biting in. Such a good bite! I love this place! Their other food is very good, too, but come for the salt and pepper wings...they are life altering, and the best wings anywhere.

Honestly rivals other spots like Royal Mandarin, Otay Mandarin and Beijing in my opinion. Crispy, with a nice amount of seasoning. Clean little spot with friendly staff. I really enjoyed the wings. Overall, a great spot. Definitely have to bring more cash to try out more items!

The location is small but the food never lacks in flavor nor in quality! Order large food trays in advance! They make everything to order so it does take time when the amount of food being prepared is alot. I personally prefer dinning in with my family. The staff is always very friendly and they explain their menu and items each time we order something new. Out of everything they have you MUST try their salt and pepper green beans! The portion, the flavor, their texture ! Everything about them makes it impossible to stop eating them. A staple item when we eat here. Plan ahead and give this place a fair try.

A few of our friends invited us to this little hidden gem and I am so glad we said yes. This…read morerestaurant is a small spot in Chula Vista with bold flavors. We ordered the fried rice, beef and broccoli, egg drop soup, orange chicken, and the house noodles. I have to say, every dish was a pleasant and unexpected surprise. The stand out was the orange chicken. I have to admit that orange chicken isn't even usually my favorite type of dish. But man the crispy immediate bite met with the bursting flavors that weren't too overwhelming was excellent. The noodles were equally as delicious. The entire meal was so good that I didn't feel overly stuffed as I typically do when I eat this type of cuisine. The portions are pretty generous for the price that you pay. Will definitely add this to one of my go to spots moving forward.

I called, and Amy told me I could get a refund as long as I came back the same day. After driving all the way back, they suddenly didn't want to honor the refund. Then a very old woman named Vicky started disrespecting and embarrassing me in front of both the employees and other customers. Only after that confrontation did Amy finally process my refund. From start to finish, this experience was handled very poorly. Between the incorrect order, the lack of professionalism, and the disrespectful treatment, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. I would highly suggest staying away from this place. The staff was rude, disrespectful, and the entire situation was handled in an incompetent and unprofessional manner.

The Hot and sour soup tasted like they dumped a bunch of tamarindo sauce? or too much sour flavor in it?? There's not enough "savoriness" like a traditional Chinese hot and sour soup would be... it's missing a lot of ingredients!!!! As for the orange chicken, it tasted like they reheated frozen orange chicken and it was left under the heat lamp all day. On the positive note, employees were very kind and quick.

The batter is lighter with its own flavor. This recipe uses jalapeño peppers instead of the red chili peppers. SERVICE: As for as service, I think this is a one man shop. Ma does it all. Takes the orders, cooks and works the cash register. There is another man that sits at a table and chit chats with Ma and some of the regular customers. Everything is made after you order so PLEASE BE PATIENT. You will be happy with your food. AMBIANCE: This place is mainly order food to go. There is one table but Ma's buddy occupies it. There are 2 chairs for those who are waiting for their order. There is a 7-11 next door. Grab a $1 Big Gulp and enjoy while waiting.
