The prices are way too high for a restaurant that doesn't have good customer service. Ordered the orange chicken and it was so tough you couldn't cut or chew it! The waiter said if I ordered the sesame chicken I would get the tender meat. What? It should all be the same! I won't go back or recommend this restaurant.

This is the first time in my life that I've gotten chicken of any kind from a chinese food restaurant that was so gross tasting that I could not eat it. I was really hungry, so I ate the sauce and cashews with the rice and just threw the chicken away. It tasted expired and sour and was full of gristle.

This was my favorite place to go when I was a teenager. Went with friends several time a month and it's a flavor I miss now that I've moved away. Wanted to try the buffet, but could never go in the mornings. Chicken was ALWAYS juicy and staff made us feel like family due to how often we went. Hoping to stop in when I'm in the neighborhood!

If you like food poisoning and waiting an hour and a half to be served, then this is the place for you. I was a server for 5 years. I typically have a lot of patience when it comes to restaurants, especially mid-pandemic. However, waiting an hour and a half to be given cold food that was bland AND had hair in it is ridiculous. The lady at the front was very kind and understanding, however the man who served us was extremely rude. He walked past us 8 times without acknowledging us at all. He rolled his eyes taking our drink order and didn't answer any of the questions we had about the menu. Worst

Food took over an hour and a half to reach the table and the restaurant was not full at all… one person at my table ordered moo goo gui pan and it was very cold and nasty, they sent back that dish. Another person at my table ordered orange chicken and there was literal hair in the food. I had the sesame chicken and I will say it was ok but it did not taste like the sesame chicken I have had in the past. Waiter was very passive aggressive and seemed unhappy to take our table. Please reconsider eating here.

There's a reason everyone from the area tells you not to go here. The place just sucks. The food is gross and/or bland. The service is incredibly slow. Their cleanliness standard is sub-par. Lower food quality than LeAnne Chinn or panda express. Red moon is down the street, and LeAnne Chinn is up the escalator. Go to either of those before trying here.

Disappointing. Seems to occupy the space between Americanized Chinese food and something more traditional. This was my first and probably last visit. Food was okay, though overpriced. Skin on the dumplings was far too thick. Imperial beef was tolerable; but the chicken and vegetables was extremely bland.

There was so many things right with my visit and just as many wrongs.
First off I had to wait to be seated because host desk wasn't manned, then the menus looked as if the we're from the Ming dynasty. The bindings we're all frayed and tattered and the plastic was greasy, dirty and frankly old looking as well.
I ordered and was brought the wrong food. When the right food came it presented in spectacular fashion.
I ordered the Lemon Chicken dish. The waiter brought to my table and proceeded to set the sauce on fire.
Then he poured the flaming brew on the breaded fried chicken pieces thus candy
