Great food great service the staff is very friendly and professional...


The food is very high quality. Dine in or takeout is a good option.


My family and I have been eating here since the sixties. Never been disappointed.


I read a bunch of the low ratings and there is definitely a theme. I've been eating here for over fifty years. It was a favorite of our family. It's hard to see it change. The portions have decreased in size and the prices have raised exponentially. You now have a fifty fifty chance in terms of the food tasting good. Tonight, I ordered Beef Hong Kong. I don't usually substitute anything, but I asked for no bamboo shoots but extra mushrooms. Taking away one thing and adding a little more of another. I was told FOUR dollars extra for the mushrooms. The staff has gotten very aggressive/abrasive when talking to customers. I can't believe how many people put in their review that the waiter insisted on a tip. I'm typically a good tipper but not at all when the service is marginal and expected. I got my food to go and was feeling down. They split my food up in to two different containers when the dish is all supposed to be mixed together. I had to explain to the waitress that I didn't have a plate or any way to mix the food back together. What she wouldn't have known is that we are homeless right now. They've priced us out of being able to eat here. I understand they are trying to recover from COVID but the portions are smaller and too expensive. After fifty years and without warning finding ourselves homeless, we won't be able to eat here anymore. It's too bad when things change for the worse.
You have to try this place! It is way better than P.F. Changs and for less money. The Mongolian Beef is fantastic and spicy. It has been many years since I've had a meal here. We had lunch here today and it's still very good. We both had the Mongolian Chicken lunch special. Service was excellent. Food came out fast. Yummy

I've been coming here since I was a kid. The interior is like stepping back in time, and I love that. I've loved almost everything I've had there. The only exception being that they put bell peppers in some things (like the Kung pao) and I would much prefer traditional chilies instead. The eggrolls are to die for. Yes, they are a bit greasy. But they are GOOD. Always nice and kind service from staff!

Food wasn't good we had a few very average appetizers and were not impressed with the mains. We didn't feel welcome.

I'm really not sure how this restaurant has gotten such high ratings. The waiter was rude and took forever to take our order despite us being his only table. The menu was very confusing, and he was very clear that there would be no substitutions. My mandarin chicken was very well done, crispy and hard to the point of being difficult to chew and swallow. I will say, the steamed dumplings were delicious. Overall, our party of 10 all left disappointed.

I will never go back. This time the egg flower soup was not good and we did not eat any of it. They refused to take the soup off the bill. We were with another couple and they did not like the soup either. On both of the bills they overcharged us on the tax….interesting! I would like to see if this is a regular occurrence, or just a simple mistake…..two times in a row.
