    Shared parking lot. If you follow Google map instructions, it brings you to a neighbouring building. You will have to drive around to find it Clean and neat place. We were seated immediately and tended to immediately. Lady who seated us also greeted us as we came in. We both ordered unsweetened ice tea. And those came promptly. We then ordered appetiser of spring rolls, kungpow chicken extra spicy for him and for me combo mei fun also extra spicy. Spring rolls were deliciously crispy with good filling. And sweet chilli sauce Kung pow chicken was fresh tender. And less sweet than a alot of places. Still not spicy enough for the hubs but a lot better than what we've had here so far. My combo mei fun was delicious. Fluffy. With wokhei. The way my mum made it at home. They forgot to add chilli but made up for it by bringing me chilli. This was delicious!!! We will be back again and again. Gem of a find. Not quite sure about the bad reviews this place has. But it's pretty authentic to me.

    Hot and sour soup
    Todd J.

    Had a delicious lunch with my wife here today. The staff greeted us immediately and showed us a seat. I had the kung pao chicken with rice, hot and sour soup with an egg roll. It all was outstanding. The hot and sour soup was amazing and the chicken did not dissapoint. The restaurant was basic but nice and clean. We will be coming back.

    Mongolian beef lunch special
    Jessica C.

    Really good! I'd definitely come here again! I got the Mongolian beef lunch special. It came out so fast, and with a very generous portion. I didn't love the fried rice, it's not bad or anything, but it's definitely not east coast style fried rice, it's definitely a midwestern softer, fluffier rice. Not bad at all, just not my favorite. To be fair I have only encountered 2 places out here in the Midwest that have the rice the way I'm used to from back home. If you're local, you'll love it. Came with a crab Rangoon, but no crab in it. Should have been called a fried cream cheese wonton or cream cheese Rangoon. That didn't stop me from eating it, it was still good. Because the portions were so generous I was too full to try the egg roll, but I'm looking forward to it as a late night snack :) The service was attentive and drink was refilled quickly, restaurant was clean and inviting. Instrumental elevator type music in the background makes for a pleasant time.

    The food has flavor unlike a lot of Chinese restaurants. The crab Rangoon is really good! Good portions for lunch. It's worth a try.

    Too much breading over cooked under flavored. The portion doesn't justify the price. Thx

Nice and clean restaurants with a couple of tables for eating there They deliver your food in containers so that if you can't finish- u just cover it and bring it home We ordered spring rolls, hot and sour soup and kungpao chicken for the hubby and for me - bbq pork rice noodles. Food was hot and fresh. Spring rolls were perfect. Hot and sour soup - wasn't great for me - tasted more like well-seasoned soy soup with a little pepper with a smackeribg of ingredients. It still was tasty- just now what I expect of hot and sour soup. My bbq meifun was fresh and tasty - just a tad oily for me. I've had better at some other establishments. We did bring the left overs home. And it heats up good. Kungpao chicken and the meifun both reheated pretty well. It will be one of those in the chinese rotations for us- and i will probably try something else

Happy we made the trip up north.

The Rangoons were soggy, repulsively sweet, and contained only cream cheese. I guess this is Chinese food for typically obese Nebraskas who have to have everything full of sugar.

I ordered black pepper chicken but asked if I could substitute beef for the chicken. She said no but you can have sizzling tofu and substitute beef. She explained that would be black pepper beef and that it's the same. It arrived and was a completely different dish than the black pepper chicken. She asked me how it was and I said this was not what I expected. She said it's the sizzling tofu only with beef. I said I ordered black pepper chicken only with beef. She said no we don't do that. So I said you can substitute tofu for beef but not chicken for beef? Yes, she said not for black pepper chicken. The logic was mind-boggling. I recommend ordering from the menu and don't ask for substitutions.

They dont have all drinks on the menu and the menu is not updated. They did tell us what was not available but was a generic dont have these and just slid his fingers on the menu. I finally got an iced lemon tea. We initially ordered egg rolls and a hot pot. We ordered spicy soup together with bok choy fungus( wood ear mushrooms) Beef, spam, fishballs and jumbo shrimp and egg noodles with a side of white rice. The soup came with a burner and it wasnt powerful enough to boil the soup on the pot. The pot had no definite style to it. Tasted like soy bean soup with some sichuan peppers. Not excessively spicy and not very flavourful. Our ingredients took a long while to come out- and our egg rolls eventually never came. Practically all the ingredients were frozen with the exception of the fungi and the egg noodles. The sauce station looks thrown together with takeout containers and plenty of sauce. The bbq sauce had part of a spoon which was broken off in the sauce. The sauces are similar to haidilao type just not as fresh. But the chives looked a little greyish. Overall, service is not fantastic. We did remind them multiple times about the egg rolls, but it still didn't ever arrive. They at least took it off the bill. We forgot to check about the missing bakchoy. Not sure we will be back anytime soon. Hubby wasn't quite happy with our dinner last night.

The dining room was nicely lit and spacious. The waiter came around and took our drink and food order. I had a diet Pepsi, it was completely flat, I had to ask for a can instead. We placed our order for egg rolls to start and hot pot. Spicy broth, beef, fishball, fungus, bokchoy, shrimp, egg noodle and a side of white rice. They quickly set up the gas burner for soup and perched the soup pot on top. Then came out the plate of meat and noodle and we were told they are out of bokchoy. EVERYTHING WAS FROZEN SOLID We waited awhile for the soup to boil (needed to properly cook seafood) but it never did. We tasted the soup. It was a little spicy but odd. Couldn't put my finger on it. Then adding all the frozen items even just some at a time the soup never boiled. We let it sit for a while to at least gain some heat before starting to eat. Waiter came. Asked again about rice and egg rolls. The rice came We managed to cook everything and eat. Had to flag down staff to ask for a check Egg rolls never came. But appeared on the bill as well as the bokchoy that I had to ask to be removed from the bill. I hate writing negative reviews but this was needed.
