★★★☆☆ 3.0 Bluroc Obama · Jun 2022

The food was a little more expensive than other Chinese takeout, but it’s just as good. The sweet and sour shrimp could have been better. I suggest smaller shrimp and not frying them so close together. Mine looked like six onion rings. They also forgot the sweet and sour sauce 😐

★★★★★ 5.0 Waddell Monroe · Mar 2025

The food is very good and you can tell it's fresh cooked. The atmosphere seem very nice they have an open kitchen so you can see everything they're doing. Customer service they are very nice and pleasant

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Michael Carr · Nov 2024

Ask for a triple delight minus the chicken and got all juice and beef with two shrimp. And a fried rice look like they just put soy sauce on it and threw it in the box not a good Chinese place. They charge $16 Triple delight and revery seems like it’s not cooked and it’s a bunch of juice. I will never ever go there again.

Amazing experience here! The people were so nice and shining with personality! And don’t even get me started with the food!!! Literally the best carry out chicken I’ve ever had! Will definitely be coming back!

★★★★☆ 4.0 The Rove · Jan 2025

Memory lane. My old friend used to get food from here and share it with me. I didn't know that and didn't understand why she braved through the hood for this place until I left the DMV area. It's worth it. This was the first place that I was introduced to Chinese carryout food and mumbo sauce. Check this out: Mumbo sauce is a DIP for fried chicken wings and not a wet rub. The correct and best way is to dip your fried chicken wings in the mumbo sauce (like you dip your wings in ranch dressing). If you want to smother your wings in mumbo sauce, then that is your personal preference, but anyone or any place serving the wings to you already smothered in mumbo sauce is wrong. Mumbo sauce is pink and is supposed to come in a condiment cup (just like ranch dressing). Another thing: The wings here
