    Good place, will be back.

    There's a lot of ground to cover here. First of all, for all you Asian, it's a pretty lo fan restaurant. You won't be served rice bowls or chopsticks.
    We ordered the candied walnut shrimp and the shrimp chow fun.

    The shrimp chow fun was excellent, tasty with some nice vegetables and generous shrimp. Portions? Well, not what I would like, but it was certainly reasonable.

    The candied walnut shrimp was a little overdressed, great portions, I probably wouldn't order that again.

    The service? Awesome. Gary took care of us, was considerate, kept checking in on us, was considerate of our every need as was a good guy.

    Not your typical Chinese restaurant, who ever heard of a Chinese restaurant where the staff wasn't rude?

    Food's fine, service is great, I'll see them again!

    This was our second visit and nothing like our first one.
    The service was terrible.We waited over an hour for our food to be served, all the food With the exception of the moo shu was not served hot, even the hot tea was tepid at best.
    Very inconsistent quality and overall service.

    Yum yum and yum. Great food. Great service. And great prices.  The waiter always remembers us. Today we brought our new boss and I think he was impressed. We had a fantastic and fun lunch.

    This was the second time I tried take out here. The first time the meal was subpar. I gave it a second chance thinking I would try a new dish. I ordered Cashew chicken (easy enough, nothing complicated). I brought it home and the chicken was literally gray in color. I  drove back to the restaurant with the meal and asked for my money back.  The owner doesn't give refunds. I will be making a complaint to the health department. If I had even taken a bite of the gray chicken I think I would now be very sick. The owner would rather service food that could potentially make his customers sick than even refund the meal. STAY AWAY
