    2. Shrimp Egg Roll shrimp with 97. Shrimp with Mixed Vegetables 35. Combination Fried Rice
    Erik B.

    Waited way too long on a Sunday evening to order the Chinese I'd been craving all day so I was genuinely surprised when this place popped up as being still open at 9:20pm. Called and placed a takeout order and the person who took it mentioned that they were closing soon so would I please be there in 15 mins to pick up and I obliged. Although the person on the phone was very straight to the point the staff was very polite when I arrived and even gave me both chili oil and hot sauce packets when I said I wasn't sure which I would prefer. This is decent quality Chinese food for rather reasonable prices. The vegetables and shrimp in particular seemed to be really fresh.

    My search for local Chinese food has taken me here many times. I have hit about every place within 5 miles of my house and this on ranks #1....ish. Mason was my first pick till they sold and fell apart. Good: Food is decent. Not a fan of the fried shrimp, but everything else is pretty decent. I have had a wide array of items and would only avoid anything with shrimp. All very standard fair. Bad: calling them is impossible. I would bet their sales would go up 30-40% if they upgraded their phones. Just order online. You miss out on discounts but save frustration. They are perpetually busy. Overall this is the best in the area, but there is still room for improvement.

    Sweet and Sour chicken

    Who orders sweet and sour chicken and only expects chicken and sauce?? If you go here that is all you will get. No explanation on the menu, and the picture in the wall- it is only a picture. Apparently everyone whonis allergic to green pepper, onion, tomato and pineapple have been complaining. I have been eating sweet and sour chicken ALL of my life and have never had it that way. No soy sauce or sweet and sour for egg rolls given either This is not my usual spot for chinese food and it wont be again!

Nothing was bad but there are weaker and favorite dishes. Favorites were cauliflower, stuffed cabbage, corn ribs, Balkan kebab, and both lamb dishes. Brussel sprouts and mushrooms were cooked right but weaker in flavor. Sujuk flatbread was literally a tasty pepperoni pizza...idk if you want to order that for the sake of stomach space.

With unlimited drinks. The drinks were my favorite part. Every drink was a hit! The food was lackluster, I was disappointed. Half of the things we tried were good and the other half not the best. The dishes I would recommend are the New York strip, the Bronzino, and the beet dip. The Naan here is fresh! Delicious. Every dish you order is SAMPLE SIZE... not your typical ayce portion size. To make this experience better I do wish minimized the selection because there tons of options we wanted to try everything within the two hour time limit. Impossible, everything is made fresh to order and their service was intentionally slow....I didn't appreciate how our server barely came to our table to take our orders. He was okay and then after our first hour a new waitress came and her name was Francis she had the worst attitude ever. Her demeanor really tainted the second half of our experience. The ambience was beautiful. The lighting was chill. On camera this is the place you want to go to for the content and a nice drink. Our total was $97 each (we ordered still water) -- they do surcharges here of 3.5%, be sure to request that they take it off. Keep in mind, everyone at the table has to pay for the all you can eat special.

One thing I personally did not like was that they require customers to pay first before the food comes out. For a sit-down restaurant, I prefer to eat first and pay after, especially when service is expected. The service was not very proactive during our visit. The food was okay, but nothing really stood out to me. For the price, I felt it was a little pricey compared to Taipei Cafe, and the overall experience did not feel worth it. Overall, the food was just alright, the service could be improved, and the pay-first system was not something I liked. I don't think I would come back.

The taiwanese style popcorn chicken and pork cutlet were super juicy and tender with nicely crisp breading. The sausage had a pleasant sweetness to it and was served with garlic chips, which added a nice touch. Finally, the broth of the Sichuan noodles was packing with flavor: sweet, tangy, spicy, umami - truly hit all the spots without being too numbing to your mouth, if thats one of your concerns Would definitely return to try the other menu items, especially their hot sizzling plates and their dessert/drink offerings
