    Food is very good and the takeout is on time, employees are polite & pleasant. I'd highly recommend them, but sadly they are now closed.

    I feel like there's a lot of places to pick from for Chinese around here. I've ordered a few times a few years ago. Only getting the basil chicken meal. I decided to give it a shot again this week. My family ordered mushrooms with chicken, mushrooms with beef and potstickers. Plus rice. For the price and quality, and portion, totally worth it. Would try again. Makes me want to try other dishes to see how those are. So far I'm down with it. AND my family put in a request due to a food allergy and they honored it. We really appreciate that. Also ordered via DD with no issue. I see us ordering again soon!

    COVID protocols were followed with all visible staff members wearing masks. Enough spacing inside for customers to maintain social distancing. Service Staff was very kind and personable. They do offer to take food to your vehicle, but hey I gotta get some steps in for the day, so I went in to pick it up. Food Currently, they do not offer the 2 or 3 plate combo plates due to the pandemic situation. Their food is more of a comfort quality, and I like how they have some Thai and Vietnamese options as well. This makes it easier as one family members prefers a Thai dish, while another may prefer a Chinese or Vietnamese dish. Peking Spareribs are the bomb here, and every time when I've ordered an entree or even a party tray of this dish. no left overs Honey Walnut prawns are also a hit. Orange chicken has a bit of a sweet taste vs the spiciness that Panda Express offers, so this can go either way depending on one's palate. happy to do business with them again
