I went here and I got the hibachi chicken special and just like my last time here the chicken was basically the same texture as tofu, the noodles were bland and tasteless and the broccoli tasted of chemicals. I could only eat half before calling it quits. 👎

Actually…. Not a bad place at all! Very similar, if not the same restaurant, located on Durham by Hillsborough Road (on 147), but overall very good! The white sauce does lack a bit of flavor compared to other locations, but it does taste like the usual ingredients for the white/yum yum sauce recipe: mayonnaise, maybe even butter, and some condiment like paprika and vinegar I think (I used to work at a couple of Chinese food restaurants) but it also depends on personal preference. I’m writing and giving a review based on my experience. Overall, I do recommend.

We ordered DoorDash so I can’t speak on service or atmosphere but the food was awful. The sushi was worse than grocery store sushi & looked/smelled days old. The meat was gray and old looking, lumpy rice & I found a hair in the beef. We threw it out

Order 3 chicken and rice, two serves of spring rolls through door dash. No sauce was packed for anything and a serving of spring rolls missing. Bag was tied when received. Gave us $7 back but to be honest the chicken is crap without it. Wouldn’t recommend anything from this place. One screw up I can handle but when there is multiple there’s clearly no care

Don’t order the tempura the batter does. It even resemble a tempura batter. The dumplings were disgusting and they have no dumpling sauce. Or Tempura sauce for that matter. Never again will we eat here!
