Out of all the takeout Chinese places we've ate at over the past 25 years, this ties our favorite place at home. Food is good but not great. But it beats so many other ones that even when you find a "good" one, you stick with it. I would eat here again.

I absolutely love this place. I typically order Pork Fried Rice, and chicken with broccoli! It always comes out perfect. I like switching it up a little, and over the last three years I've only seen two employees. The restaurant is clean, and they are very friendly when taking your order. They give
you a rough estimate as to when your food will be ready, but it's usually prepared quicker! That is a huge plus. This is the only Chinese establishment I will order from! Setting the bar high!

Standard take out Chinese food. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. Phoned in a large order and it was ready when they said it would be. Based on what you order you can be provided enough white rice to feed an army. Rice, chicken, and veggies were all cooked well and tasted great. Plenty of parking in front of the restaurant, and they provide fortune cookies with take out orders.

Got takeout. Very average. Ok for a quick fix, but wouldn't seek it out the next time.

Food was not great, teriyaki chicken sticks were all fatty, the rice wasnt cooked all the way and the egg rolls were not good at all. First time ordering g. Yelp reviews convinced me but my family is not a fan at all!

Updated review (please refer to original). After my encounter with the under cooked chicken I called to tell them I'd be bringing the chicken back after I got off work so they could see for themselves. By the time it was discovered I didn't have enough time to go back and had eaten part of the rice and all of the broccoli. On the phone the gal said she could give me a replacement or a refund.

When I arrived several hours later with chicken in hand she questioned why I didn't bring the entire, uneaten meal back. This annoyed me slightly as I told her on the phone I picked the

This place is awesome. The quality of the ingredients just seems a notch up from your generic cheap Chinese food place, but without costing a fortune either. Even down to the fortune cookies...they are just a little bit thicker and feel higher quality.

I got the general tso chicken, asked for extra spicy and they delivered. Frying was not overdone, and the dish wasn't drowning in sauce. Overall, probably my favorite Chinese takeout in Lancaster c

Chinese food is my all time favorite. Moving to a new city, I've been able to sample three buffets in town plus two take out restaurants. In terms of take out, this is one of my favorites in the area.

The sweet and sour chicken is good, the honey chicken is excellent, the pork fried wontons are great (though the regular wonton soup needs more flavor to their broth). The dumplings (both kinds - fried or boiled) have good tasting meat inside, but can sometimes be rather doughy, especially on the ends where there is no meat. The chicken lo mein has been one of my two regular go-to's at

Food is really good and service is friendly. I had one bad experience ordering online and they didn't see my order, so I just make sure to call it in now.

AVERAGE small shop Chinese. Ordered chicken and mixed vegetables with fried rice and won ton soup. Soup was bland. Entree was OK. Small portion. Had a burned flavor. Some of the rice was hard. Served very hot. Service and price average.

I've now been back here a few times. They've improved since they opened, and now seem to be pretty decent.

I've now been going back regularly and they get better each time. Tonight they cooked up for us even tho we arrived a couple minutes after their closing time - and the pork lo mein is the tastiest I've had in years. Great service and food.

Not your average American-Chinese food joint! The flavors are always rich and deep, not the corn starchy overly sweet yet bland stuff you find at a lot of Chinese restaurants. The staff is always very friendly and the cleanliness is spot on! Highly recommended over many other local Chinese food!

My husband and I stopped in expecting your typical Chinese food. But what we got was freshly cooked delicious food. You can see them cooking and he made everything fresh including the soup, gravy. Everything. Will go back again for sure.

If you're looking for bland, fried food, this is your place. The noodles were soggy. The fried rice was flavorless and what little meat there was did not taste like chicken. The lemon chicken had not one iota of lemon. The dumplings were rubbery and mostly dough. Very disappointing. We will not return.

This, my friends, is the true flavor of China. The Mongolian beef is to die for. Lots of meat and so much flavor. I actually had a different perception on what Mongolian beef was supposed to taste like because I've never tasted Mongolian beef this good!!!

When I was waiting for my food, the owners sat there and had a nice conversation with me. They are very friendly family oriented people. The atmosphere at this restaurant of the food and the people makes me want to book a flight to China. By far the best!

China 3 finally opened in East Petersburg! I usually frequent the take out place by Walmart on Fruitville Pike first. If I don't feel like driving, I go to the lesser take out place next to Weis on Manheim Pike. Now I don't even need to drive longer than three minutes to get my sesame chicken.

I got the sesame chicken combination tonight (my usual). Same size portion as every other take-out joint. The food was fresh. The chicken was perfectly sauced and a little crispy. The fried rice that comes with the combo was perfect. My favorite thing so far has to be that I could swap out my
