    I had the Singapore noodles they were excellent the noodles were very thin and the sauce had a curry after taste it was a unique flavor I never had before. I will certainly be coming back again ordering these noodles right now actually. Also had the general tso chicken that was also great nothing bad at this place. The outside looks a little rough around edges but the food is all
    That matters and they have a pick up window also it's great!

    Had a so so experience here.  Met a friend for lunch and since neither of us had been here before we got a few different things to try. We got the crab rangoons, which came with 4 in the triangle shape (not a fan when they do them like this, I prefer the pouches, but this is just my preference), the filling is delicious though!  It was savory with a good crab flavor and slightly sweet, the duck sauce on the table was ok, it was really watery and didn't have much flavor.

    I got the General Tao's chicken with fried rice and Hot & Sour soup, she got the Sesame Shrimp with fried rice and an Egg roll.  I read the menu wrong and thought I got an egg roll and soup, so when they brought her egg roll and soup, I added an egg roll to mine.  The soup wasn't good to me, when I had her try it she didn't like it either, it reminded us of egg drop soup with some brown sauce added and a few veggies.  I ended up only eating 4 bites of it, so I decided to ask our waitress if I could just switch out the soup for eggroll since I didn't like it or eat hardly any of it.  She wasn't sure so she went and asked and came back saying they would even though you could tell she wasn't happy about it.  The eggroll was ok, it was a good size and was nice and crispy, the filling didn't have much flavor.

    When the entrees came out they were a good size for a lunch portion.  The General Tao's was really good and their sauce had good flavor.  The fried rice was ok (I really miss FL fried rice with veggies, up here they should call it Soy Sauce white rice with a smidge of egg in it).  She really liked her Sesame Shrimp and sauce and when I tasted the sauce it was good.  The Shrimps we're actually Jumbo's so that was a nice surprise she said.

    For dessert we tried the fried donuts and they were delicious.  They are a good size and covered in suger.  Overall the food was ok.  The waitress was ok.  Our dislikes were having to ask for refills on our drinks and the cups being full of ice.  I normally never get refills and had to have mine refilled 3 times because of all the ice and each refill she just added more.  The total for everything was about $34, with tip it came to $39.

    Super poor quality! Ordered the "authentic" tofu and seafood soup, ended up with egg drop with bits of shrimp. No egg listed as an ingredient on the menu, but the main feature in the soup! For $16+ an order, feel ripped off and anything but authentic. Hope you can improve.

    While the exterior of the establishment is a little run down, the food is delicious and that's what matters. The following day after visiting, I recommended it to several of my friends. I'll definitely be back. Food also seems to be fairly priced. Service was also pleasant and quick.

    We ordered Chinese this evening as we have in the distant past and as in the past expected it to be good. IT WASN'T! While my Moo Goo Gai Pai was edible, the Moushu pork was totally uneatable. We have had this in the past from other places before, and KNOW how it's supposed to be prepared and tonight it was simply tasteless. It didn't even look as though it had been fixed correctly. It was so bad only the rice was able to be eaten. After spending this kind of money for what in the past has been delicious food, this was truly disappointing. If they had still been open by the time we started trying to eat this, I would have brought it back for a refund.

    I would truly suggest you search elsewhere to go for Chinese food. If they have fallen this far, don't spend your money here.
