Singaporean meifun and goicun (or summer rolls)

The food is always excellent. Always. The food is fantastic. No other summer rolls in the entire valley can match theirs, and believe me, I've looked. Their Singaporean meifun is phenomenal. The right amount of spice for spicy enthusiasts, with all the flavor of anyone who's looking to try something new. Service is great. Fidel is wonderful. The ambiance feels luxurious and clean. Bathrooms are always shiny and clean and well kept. They have a reasonably priced menu: some pricey dishes for premium food, some budget friendly dishes for those that are just hungry. But everything is always tastes great. I come here at least once a week.

chicken & basil lunch

Of all things in McAllen, Tx, this mixed Thai restaurant is pretty tasty. From what I hear, it's most always crowded and the food is consistent. I tried the chicken & basil and was not disappointed! I would definitely return to this place if I'm back in the area :)

Wonton soup, so light!

Been coming here for so many years. For those reading the reviews, come see for yourself and you be the judge. Food: love their food especially their pan-fried noodles (seafood ) and their won ton soup is light. I went here during a birthday and they prepared such good food , also during a lauriat (not sure of the spelling for Chinese New Year celebration) Staff: very personable, they'll chat with you but you have to talk to them 1st. Just know they're also college students and are educated folks. Service is quick and efficient. Management: hasn't changed since 5 years ago. ( I verified with the staff.) I nearly didn't want to come to eat here today because of most the reviews I've read. I guess their loyal customers are just too happy with their food that they don't think they need to write any reviews . And the place is always full. Bon appetit !

If I had to pick an Asian restaurant in McAllen, this is my second favorite after Thai red chilli's! We order the best dishes here and as a party of 5 we spent about $80 and our tummies were full and happy! We enjoyed the whole fish lemongrass entree and the shrimp fried rice. And in their chicken options the satay chicken was exceptional and we downed it in minutes. They take a while on the fish since it's made to order but it was worth the build up of appetite. the service here is very friendly and homey. We had an Asian server and he was so kind and respectful to my family. Definetely a place we would come back to anytime we are up on 10th street.

Chicken lo mein

The atmosphere is nice, the portions were ample and the presentation of the food was lovely. However, I didn't think the taste of the pad Thai that we shared today was as good as some of the other dishes that I've tried here. I'd probably eat here again, but next time I'll avoid the pad Thai and order one of the other selections.

I have loved this spot for over 10 years! The summer rolls, along with many other dishes on the menu, are amazingly good!

Good food, generous portions, friendly service. My "go to" for Chinese food. Not "fast food".

I just can't seem to find good Thai food in the valley. I ordered basic tofu pad thai and it was greasy and not terribly tasty. Bummer.
