The food is delicious with lots of good flavors. I ordered the # 3 combination plate with foil wrapped chicken, BBQ pork fried rice, and garlic chicken. My wife had the # 1 combination plate and substituted for BBQ chicken. For our beverages I had a lemonade and she had a Diet Coke. The service is good. I would definitely recommend it.

We love coming here, the owner is the sweetest person in the world. She works really hard to keep up with her business. Please, if you are in the area, please support small business. They make everything from scratch nothing is waiting for you, remember small business are always the best ones so we can help MOM and Papa shop.

First off, do not take Ashley's F. 1 ⭐ review serious. It sounds like a recovering addict & Drama Queen on a downward spiral. I've been eating here since the day they opened, and I never had a bad dish. Their food is always fresh, and the flavor is always consistent. Their establishment is always very clean, and I always get great service. It seems like their portion sizes have gotten a little smaller since covid, but that is pretty much everywhere nowadays.

Stopped in tonight with my daughter. Drove from Manteca because this is one of the few Chinese restaurants we like in this area. It had been awhile since we had their food so we decided to dine in. We did the family style dinner A for two with a side of pot stickers and crispy noodle chicken chow mein. They are one of the few restaurants I have found that will make the chow mein crispy this way and it is delicious! (if you have not tried it this way you should) The dinner came with a large bowl of egg flower soup, sweet and sour pork, chicken with mixed vegetables, pork fried rice, and crab rangoon. We ended up leaving with 3 to go boxes full of food. The pot stickers were big and filled with meat! Definitely stop by if you are hungry and want some hot and tasty food.

I was trying to upload each photo and detail them but I guess I have to do it this way. Me and my spouse came here for lunch because I told him that the food here was great. I’m American so of course I would love it. Lol. My spouse is half Japanese and Filipino so I wanted his opinion. He loved it. The food is authentic and steaming hot. The crisp is perfect where needed be. They have such a big variety of menu items. Here are photos of the food we purchased with titles of what they are. We ordered: Beef chow fun noodles Beef & Broccoli Honey walnut shrimp House pan fried noodles Shrimp fried rice Rice noodles

My husband and I have been going here for almost 15 years...love everything about it! The regular hostess even knows our order by heart. Prices are good, food is even better. Just wish they were open on Mondays.

Dined out by myself, which is tough in Chinese restaurants. This place has a dozen “Specials” sized for one person, and all under $12! I had Chicken Fried Rice with Kung Pao Chicken. The portions were great. I would rate the taste as “OK” to “Good”. Overall, a decent dinner.
