This cozy Chinese Cafe, is located in a very heavy traffic area, it's right next to a Kroger, and around other Asian restaurants, too. The food is affordable and magnificently good. The plates are large, which is a plus and the atmosphereis peaceful. The cashier is a really sweet young man. They offer takeout and drive thru service. You will enjoy this little Cafe.

Cheap and tasty generic Chinese take-out food!! This place has been here for so long but my boyfriend thought it was a front lol so he never tried it. Well I did! I got the General Tso Chicken, sweet & sour pork, beef and broccoli, fried rice, egg rolls, and crab cheese wontons to-go. Portions were great, considering how other restaurants are putting less. And each plate with fried rice was about 10 w/tax! My to-go order was freshly made and not soggy at all. Flavoring on the Tso and beef was just as expected and great. Pork batter was crispy and not greasy at all. Not my favorite fried rice or crab cheese wontons, but not bad!

I love the menu choices, and the drive thru. The Singapore Noodles were perfect. My crab wonton however were overdone, and mostly inedible. Great prices and fast tasty food will get me back there!

My 5 star review is for their fried chicken in sauce dishes. The general tso's, orange chicken, etc... It's classic dark meat, crispy batter, great sauces and it stays crispy even the next day. The sweet and sour pork is right on too, classic old school. and you can get it through a drive through, yess.
