Food was over prices and not worth eating. I ordered lo mein noodles and when it was brought out they were seasoned spaghetti noodles. I do not recommend anyone eating here unless you just like throwing money away.

I have been eating here for over 10 years. It’s my favorite place to get takeout. The owners are so kind.They always give my two boys little toys which is so sweet. Also, of course the food is awesome! I recommend the teriyaki chicken or steak.

The people who run the restaurant are extremely kind and professional. The food was exquisite, and I had a great experience overall. I would absolutely return and recommend it to anyone. They make you feel genuinely welcome and truly deserve support.

Terrible. Not friendly, bad service. I ordered jumbo shrimp appetizer and the shrimp were medium at best, egg drop soup which never came, Teriyaki steak with broccoli and the sauce was still jellied from not being heated through evidently not fresh. My friend ordered pot stickers it came without sauce and it had to be requested. When our food was done they did not bring it and it sat while the cook and lady stood at the counter talking, we finally just asked and went to get our plates ourselves they did not bat an eyelash. Food rating 6/10
