I’m not one to typically leave a review. Essentially a bad one. That being said this is simply my opinion. I was recommended the place from a friend who lives near. I just wanted an order of crab Rangoons. She said an order of 5 is $6. Kinda steep but I’m also super cheap. Desperate and being dumb I bought them. Came home took a bite into one it’s filled with celery. I personally hate celery. It was also luke warm. I was curious why the place was dead and there was only the one person working now I know. Do not recommend. Maybe the other foods good but it didn’t look promising. She also gave me a box to take from the buffet so who knows how long it sat before I ate it. Also my own fault.🤷🏻‍♀️

This restaurant is ok. Not the greatest but not the worst Chinese restaurant I've had. This is my 2nd time coming here and it's never really packed which I love. The less of a crowd the better. Plenty of space to park and plenty of tables to sit down at. I would recommend the Egg Foo Yung, the Stuffed Mushrooms and the Panko Fried Shrimp. I feel that the General Tso's Chicken is a bit too rich in flavor, the Orange Chicken is a tad less stronger and the Sesame Chicken seems to have the right balance. Mind you some of these dishes have been sitting on the line for a bit too long but, for what they charge per meal is a bargain. Can't beat $12 bucks. That's a steal really. The nearest Chinese restaurants are south in Nevada and north in Kansas city. Are you that willing to travel that far jus

Staff and workers very nice and polite, but the atmosphere is a little too quiet and needs music. Food has been sitting out for hours and chicken is soggy. Bathrooms weren’t very clean and neither was cash register area.

This was the worst food i've ever had. Egg Drop soup was cold with a red tint to it And no eggs. All of the food was very tasteless and dried out and not hot. We were the only customers in the restaurant and no one came to fill our water or take our dirty dishes, As we sat to visit. Horrible!

Husband ordered sesame shrimp. After eating 4 9f the shrimp he was reaching for a 5th and discovered a roach leg cooked into the shrimp. We also ordered beef, chicken, and shrimp lo mein along with a fried rice. $45 into the garbage.
