    Orange chicken and beef and broccoli

    This Chinese food is crazy good they make it fresh for u I never been to a place where they make it fresh and I really enjoyed it definitely coming back

    The new owners really took this place from basic Chinese food to high quality food you can taste

    The new owners really took this place from basic Chinese food to high quality food you can taste. Both the beef and broccoli & orange chicken were made fresh unlike most places that have the food sitting for hours. The orange chicken had a good breading to chicken ratio.

    They don't have combos like many fast food chinese places. You order an entry and that's what you get. Not what I was expecting when walking in to a fast food Chinese place. I'm sticking to Panda Express next time where at least I get options of fresh food rather than looking at picture where hot food used to be.

    $31 is WAY to MUCH  for Wings and noddle

    Tried this spot for a quick Chinese meal. The lady said it's fresh and made to order--true, it's not greasy and tastes decent for fast food. Got rice, chow mein, two proteins, and veggies. It's basic and okay, nothing special. But $31? Way overpriced. I usually pay $15 for the same elsewhere. 2.5/5 stars. Fine if you're nearby, but skip for better value.

    Our leftovers combined after eating dinner! Portions were incredibly generous!

    We will definitely be returning! This is the perfect quick hole in a wall Chinese spot! The combos are super affordable and it was a load of food - bonus. It wasn't all side, we had loads of our entrees in the combo! The gal behind the counter had the BIGGEST smile and was so happy to have us - making recommendations etc... we got the Mongolian Beef with Chow Mein and the Orange Chicken with Fried rice with an order of potstickers. Date night's dinner for $30 and change, YES PLEASE! Everything is made to order and SO fresh!!! Husband dove in before I could take a photo, and now we will be leaving with leftovers - but as I said, we will be back. Ohh! FYI cash or Zelle only atm, so come prepared

    Sesame and Orange chicken with noodles
    Christina S.

    Found out that our favorite Chinese food spot had a change of ownership so came over to check it out. The lady at the counter was very nice and gave all my kids some twist cookies. We ordered two 2 item plates. The first plate was orange chicken & sesame chicken with noodle. The meat was very very good - and the noodle were definitely decent. The other plate was black pepper chicken and jalapeño chicken with rice. Again - meat was on point and my husband said he could eat it all day every day -- the rice however was on the dry side and seemed to have been sitting out too long - borderline crunchy. We also ordered chicken egg rolls which were on point and cheese wantons....again I loved this place for their unique wontons which were so much better then other places but it looks like the original owners took the recipe with them because these were not what I was use to. Truly heartbreaking- and if you've been here and had the wantons you know what I'm talking about. Over all we will continue to give our business here and support our local non-chain spot. I'm hoping the rice is better next time though!

    Freshly cooked Salt and pepper shrimp. My favorite!

    Finally NEW OWNERSHIP. Everything is made fresh!!!!! No food just sitting out. They are very friendly. Highly recommend for fast food fresh Chinese food. Very clean inside as well.

    Broccoli beef bowl with chow mein
    Kell C.

    I need to start by saying that this place legit makes food fresh to order! That is so rare for fast food places. The food: The beef with broccoli is the best I've had from a fast food takeout. The meat is so tender and the broccoli is fresh! The chow mein was just okay. There are wayyyy too many celery pieces in there which actually gives a taste of mint which has no business in chow mein. The noodles are NOT made fresh to order but I can tell that haven't sat out that long. The cream cheese wontons are NOT good. They taste like there is zero sugar in them so they are almost tart. They also do not have any green onion. The vegetable egg rolls are amazing! They too were not fresh but yet they were warm and still crispy! Since I have a mild obsession with wontons I likely won't be back but if that's not your thing, definitely worth a try! The man who helped me was super kind and the place is well kept. Drinks are only cans, no soda machine.

    Chow mein ( no veggies ) & mushroom chicken

    They are back open under new ownership and the food is AMAZING! Wonderful flavor!! So fresh! The best Chinese food I've had in years! It's all made to order, not sitting under heat lamps! Next to Smart & Final on Arlington. The lady at the front is cheerful & helpful and the place is spotless clean! Give them a try!

Big Sky was my **go-to Chinese food spot in Riverside** for years. **Then tonight happened.** I placed a DoorDash pickup order at their new location -- sweet and sour pork, beef chow fun, beef porridge, pork and shrimp siu mai, and white rice. They even threw in extra rice, and I was genuinely excited to dig in. That excitement ended the moment I looked down at my bowl and found a **MAGGOT sitting on top of my rice.** I called the restaurant immediately and calmly explained what happened. They told me to contact DoorDash since that's how I ordered. Fine. I reported it through DoorDash's platform and waited. Then I got a call back from DoorDash -- not to help me, but to relay a message: **Big Sky had contacted them specifically to refuse my refund.** Let that sink in. A customer found a maggot in their food, couldn't eat a single bite of a $54.19 order, and the restaurant's response was to **actively call DoorDash to make sure I didn't get my money back.** I understand that occasionally bugs happen in food service. It's gross, but I was fully prepared to move on had they simply taken responsibility. Instead, they chose to fight a $54 refund over a maggot. That tells you everything you need to know about how this restaurant values its customers. **Eat here at your own risk -- and if something's wrong, you're on your own.**

The restaurant itself is super spacious, and since we came at kind of an odd time after the lunch rush, it was really calm and relaxing inside. We ordered the Salt and Pepper Calamari, and it was really good. The calamari was crispy, lightly seasoned, and still tender inside, which made it super satisfying to eat. I do wish it came with a dipping sauce, but we already had sweet and sour sauce on the table and ended up using that instead, which actually paired really well with it. We also got the Chicken Pad Thai, which honestly impressed me a lot. The portion size was huge for the price, I think it was around $12-13, which felt really worth it for how much food we got. The noodles were flavorful, well cooked, and had a good balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors without feeling too heavy. The people working there were really welcoming and kind, and it felt like a family-run restaurant, which made the experience feel even more comforting and homey.

Don't expect refills or conversations about the day or the meaning of life. Bathroom: clean. Toilet and a urinal. Food: Before my main course arrived, I was served a small cup of egg drop soup and some crispy noodles with some type of sweet dipping sauce. Considering these were complimentary, I'm not going to complain. Soup was my okay. my mapo tofu came with a side of white rice. Upgrading to brown or fried rice will cost you an additional $1. This is the most bizarre mapo tofu I've ever had. Rather than the traditional ground pork and wood ear mushrooms, this came with long strips of fried pork and no mushrooms. I'm also used to thicker sauce, but this one was very watery. A tad spicy, but not over bearing. Maybe a recipe from a different Provence of china? Not what I was looking for. $15.00 later and a fortune cookie...and I was done. Not sure if I'd come here for the mapo tofu again. Others in the restaurant offered the 2-3 item combos. Typical orange chicken or Kung Pao chicken w rice or chow mein. Not my thing.

It was not too loud in there and the place was relatively empty so that was nice. Biggest disappointment was service, because our table ordered chow mein and the waiter brought us chow fun (flat noodles with gravy). When we told him that we ordered chow mein, he told us that what we ordered was chow fun, so I showed him what we ordered on the menu and he said "you wanted lo mein". While I get that, he spent a minute trying to figure out where the item was and couldn't find it. I reviewed pics on here and it seems like other people got the thick yellow noodles for chow mein. Anyway, they replaced it for us but I overheard the waiter tell his manager that we ordered chow fun by accident. The manager then told us something about "our mistake" upon paying, placing blame on us . The manager was nice about it, but we repeatedly told the waiter chow mein and he kept correcting us to chow fun. Also, there is a section of the menu labeled chow mein and a separate page labeled chow fun. I think I know what we ordered. Disappointing.
