"Dec 2020 takeout. Food was ready as estimated. [FOOD] A bit saucier than my liking but definitely that Chinese-American (aka not traditional Chinese cuisine) taste. Dumplings were as expected with the super thick skin. Chicken wings were nice and crispy despite 30 minute car ride. General Tso Chicken ⭐⭐⭐ - in between a crispy and soggy state. As expected especially after a car ride. If it was crispy—that would’ve been great. Has a slight spiciness so a bit different than other places. Hot and sour soup ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - had this twice in a week. Good flavor and the ingredients were plentiful that each scoop has more than just soup. Stir fry string beans ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - not as oily but definitely needed more garlic"

"The best Chinese place in the area! I ordered a bunch of food and crab Rangoon almost 3 months ago, I called that same day and told them, the lady asked if it was okay that I come get it free another day since I couldn’t come back that night, she wrote down my name and number, today, 3 months later I decided to get Chinese again and asked them if my name was still written down and IT WAS! Definitely was surprised!! Best Chinese spot and nicest people that work there!"
