We're from out of town and staying in an air bnb. We like to support local businesses, and this place was wonderful to me and my husband. Great food, kind and caring service. Although the food was great, a small detail made a huge difference, the hottest mustard (for BBQ pork) we've ever had, wow was it hot, and fantastic. Thank you to the owners for being so wonderful!!!

Food has greatly improved! I wasn't to impressed a few years ago, it was ok. But now their flavor and quality is much better and very nice staff! Competitive prices too. You are actually getting a significant amount for what you pay, so be ready to take some home for a late night snack!

The inside of this restaurant is not the typical Chinese restaurant - that is to say it's pretty plain inside. That said - I rate restaurants heavily on the 2 most important points: food quality and service. The food my wife and I ordered was all *very* good - and having had Chinese food all over the world I can say that the food here is what you'd expect - Chinese. The Beef and Broccoli I ordered was pleasantly garlicy, the egg rolls had good flavor, the egg drop soup very good, and the chicken with peapods very fresh. The service was prompt and friendly and the location and parking easily accessible. Worth a stop if you're in the area and like Chinese.
