The potstickers and the sauce were good but would have better if we had them fresh at the restaurant. Egg rolls were great! The portions for both the Pad Thai and Beef Broccoli are huge. The Beef broccoli was really good and the Pad Thai is usually much better... kind of tasteless like Lo Mein. We will be back and I hope posting the menu fir others helps

So the best thing about this restaurant is the chandelier hanging above the buffet. The second best…read morething is the hot and sour soup although it is slim on having anything in the soup except for egg. The eggrolls come in third which isn't saying much the spring rolls are horrendous. I think the best I could give this restaurant was a three. There are people there sweeping the rug, cleaning the tables cleaning the chairs, but I think they should really also focus on their food. There wasn't much in each bin of food and some of it looked like it had been there since lunch, especially the chicken wings which regrettably I'd bit into one and it was similar to chewing on a paper towel roll . It just really wasn't a good experience. If you want a quick meal, and a cheap meal, it was $25 for two of us to have dinner there, this is the place for you. As my tummy speaks to me, I realize $25 was still too much... I really don't like to get bad reviews .

Usually I end up getting the Stromboli or a sub which are both solid but I wanted to try something new and a bit more "Italian." I went with the Sausage and Pepper Parmigiana, a risk worth taking and probably my new favorite. It is a dish consisting of Sautéed sausage, bell peppers, onions topped with marinara sauce and baked with mozzarella over spaghetti noodles. I used their website to order and picked up to take home for an evening in. Service was quick, easy, and the order was packaged up nicely for transport as I live 24 miles away. I will state as others as if you are looking for a meal in - ambiance of the place is very low key, it's nothing crazy visually but the food is definitely a win! Also added in some photos from previous visits to show other delicious options!
