    Happy Camper!!

    Best Chinese in Joplin and the surrounding area. We love their Chinese Cashew Chicken and Rice

    Most of the Onions that were in my general chicken order.  I even ate some of the onions.  There was not 3 oz of chicken in my order.

    Ordered the General chicken (delivery) but what I received was General Onion. Not worth the money for what I received.

    Food is always great as expected. Cashew chicken is in a class of its own! It's my go-to when in Joplin.

    Best Cashew Chicken ever. Love this place. I moved from Joplin 35 years ago, but go here every time I'm back.

    I was only 5 miles away. So I called for a delivery and they told me that they could not deliver that far. That's so fucked up.

    Well, extremely disappointed! I have left good reviews here in the past and have been coming here…read morefor between eight and 10 years and spend anywhere from $75-$100 a month. Just had a food order that was messed up. Not really that big of a problem because those things happen, we are all human. I had things that were left off my order and didn't find out until I got home and started eating. I called the restaurant back and let them know what the issue was and was taken care of with the promise that they would take care of it. They took my name and he pulled up my order for verification. He said they would replace the missing items when I came back. This was from one of the employees. Very nicely handled. But... When I went back the next day with my receipt, the owner was not in so they could not give me my missing items from the order that I had already paid for. The girl there was nice enough to call the owner. but he wouldn't allow them to make the food. He wanted me to wait until he returned or to come back again. Unbelievable! I've owned several businesses and this is the worst way to handle it. All for about eight dollars worth of food!! If he has long-term paying customers that he treats like this, I wonder how he treats his employees? He does go through a lot of of them. I hope the owner reads this and realizes what a jerk he has been and what a huge mistake he made! Check your order before you leave!

    Great place to eat with affordable pricing! Every employee we've encountered has been nice and food…read moreas been good everytime

    This place is easily the biggest bang for your buck. I would sell all of my 13 children for one…read morebowl of those glorious soft noodles and luxurious tender meat. The service is always insane, those cooks can make any substance a 5 star meal. I would hire all of those men AND women to cook my final meal if I was about to be slaughtered in prison for horrendous crimes. The environment is amazing and I love all the music and conversations you can hear. I would tell everyone in my life to go and have the best experience of their lives. However after you experience it once everuthing in life is just not as exciting. Best food in town Sincerely Fredrick Leonard

    We went here because my wife was craving this food. This place is all you can eat. I only got 2…read moreplates of food because I learned not to stuff myself too much as we had to drive to our next destination which was in Kansas City. Prices were not too bad as it was $16.99, but soft drinks are not included and you have to pay extra. They have a good assortment of food and they tell you the recipe to make some of the sauces. I ended up having a bowl full of vegetables and meat the first shot. Then, I ended up getting some noodles and making my own version of a supreme pizza which did not taste bad at all. If it does get busy, beware that it does take some time to cook the meal. If you give the cooks a tip, they do a song of some sort like at Cold Stone. Service was good and our server was friendly as they cleared out the tables fast. Even though the receipt says an extra charge, she did not charge us for it and we ended up giving more tip.
