Went Thursday to try the lemon chicken and 5 minutes after eating it came right out and also gave me diarrhea and still have it cant eat anything and cant stop pooping smh i will never eat there again not recommend anyone to try it read more

Hole in the wall but the food doesn't disappoint!! Looks family owned and operated. The service was fast and easy they helped me decide on what to eat since I couldn't decide The pepper steak was great the sauce was very tasty and thick! The only thing I could say it was that the vegetables were cut very big. My favorite part was the appetizers the pot stickers smacked!! I got half steamed and the other half fried super juicy and delicious The sauce was a perfect combo too. I definitely recommend this place 10/10 read more

I heard about this place through a friend. Small little hole in wall. Clean and the staff is super friendly. The hot n sour soup was great. The sweet and sour chicken was good. The lemon chicken was ok. They pounded the chicken so flat that there wasn't much chicken between the breading. Large portions. read more

Definitely recommend this establishment, very friendly people with good prices and excellent food!!! 10 out of 10...

The food is delicious Chinese American takeout. The staff is polite and their service is quick accurate and hot. The inside of the restaurant could use some updating but it's forgotten when you begin to eat. read more

This is a hidden gem. All good and the service is exceptional. Love the waitress that works there. read more

Came here since I was a kid. Good priced Chinese! I love the combination fried rice with hot oil, the sweet and sour chicken, and the beef chop suey! read more

It is not an impressive ambiance, so it's a generic depressive atmosphere. But the food is okay.

Born and raised on the south side. This is one of those hidden gems. I have been coming here since a sweet lady named May was running this spot i was 7 years old. Now im 33, same look , feel and amazing food. read more

Food,service were excellent. Would definitely go again. Hot and sour soup was soooo goood!

This place was such a good hole in the wall. I loved their chicken and broccoli, you could tell that everything was fresh, it was a mom and pop place, the service was so good everyone was nice and their portions were perfect . Going back soon! read more

Good food , fast service , friendly and kind all the time - their consistency in all aspects is best !!!

Always good, always reliable. We never dine-in but they've consistently gotten our order right! For me, there's usually enough for two meals. Lemon chicken is my go-to, but the combination lo mein is delicious. read more

We go here often but today they had no real waitress. It looked liked the teenage kids you see there were waiting on the tables. They did no follow up on refills or anything else and they kept playing around especially the Asian kids. Adults were there but not doing much! read more

I've been here a lot. Once a week for the past 3 months. I like to try different things. So I've had a lot of the dishes on the menu, but I always get the hot n sour soup and an order of egg rolls. My wife always gets the Kung pao chicken. She loves it. The service has always been great. I definitely recommend trying it for your selfs. Do not take someone's word on here. Everyone is different and have different likes and don't likes. Different taste Palettes. Some people might like a certain dish, and others might not. Same dish, same food, some people just won't like it. Some people will post a bad review if just one little thing goes wrong. I know this first hand. I got a bad review over something very, very minor that really shouldn't not have been an issue. But because they didn't get what they wanted in composition, they started complaining about everything. So go see/try it for yourself and you be the judge of it. Now I will say this. Some of the food here is just a little different than other Chinese restaurants. Not by much but is different. It could be a spice, or ingredient, but it works and taste good. Personally, I recommend giving this place a try. Support your local mom n pop places, little hole in the walls places/restaurants. They may surprise you. Some of the best food in San Antonio are from little hole in the wall restaurants. God bless, and enjoy y'all. read more

This is my go to for combination fried rice and kung pao chicken. excellent portions and fast service . Thoroughly enjoy!!!

Everything is so good. Food, Service, place feels very comfortable it might not look big and very decorative but the food is very good.

Restaurant needs to update hours of operation, signage says open but is actually closed right now. Maybe they are on vacation or closed temporarily. At least leave note on door read more

This place looks very scary/intimidating from the outside. Wire mesh on all the windows and the door. I was not sure what I would find when I entered the restaurant but was not disappointed! Very clean and tidy. The Chinese food was spot on for my taste! They have the standard items, one of us had the sweet and sour chicken, one Lo-mein and I had the almond chicken. We all loved our food. The egg rolls could be better but overall this was a WIN for my group! If you like solid Chinese fare, you won't be sad! I will go back and try their egg foo young as soon as possible! read more

Food was great for once a place where the food isn't salty as hell. Portions were good and flavorful. Will definitely go again.

Great combination fried rice and egg rolls!!! Have been coming here for years now and it's always great food! read more

This is perfect for a calm, relaxing sit down lunch or dinner! My boyfriend and I love it here so much! We've become regulars

So good!! Looks very deceiving on the outside, but absolutely delicious! I haven't had decent Chinese in forever! This place surpassed my wildest dreams! Thank heaven! Phenomenal service with spectacular food! We had hot and sour soup, cheese Rangoons, egg rolls, fried rice, general Tso chicken, sweet and sour chicken, three freshes!! This belly is happy!! Thank you! read more

Horrible. Do yourself a favor and do not go! I had to throw mine away, shrimp toast was greasy. Hardly any meat in my Mongolian beef.

The food is fresh and delicious. You order and they bring it straight to you as it was JUST prepared. Service is fast and simple. The place looks kind of broken down a little hole in the wall but it's absolutely delicious. read more

Food was awesome don't know why it took me so long to give them a try . Don't let the exterior fool you.

This is def a hidden gem. Small Chinese restaurant, definitely easy to miss. This was recommended to me and I enjoyed my meal. I had the potstickers, fried rice and wonton soup. Everything was well prepared, I'll be it a little greasy but isn't all Chinese food. I would absolutely come back and try again. Food came out all within 15 min despite them being fairly busy. read more

We eat here often and everything is always fresh! We typically order the beef chop suey, if you like perfectly tender beef with sprouts and other veggies it's amazing. Fried dumplings are always spot on and wonton soup is the best I've had. Very seldom have we experienced inconsistencies, it's a hole in the wall spot but WORTH it. Shrimp with vegetables has the most flavorful sauce, but TRY THE WONTON soup obviously homemade wontons with yum pork filling. Great service even better food! read more
