Got the General Tso’s Tofu and a order of Crab Rangoon. The tofu was the best I’ve had, fried just right. I got extra spicy, it was the perfect amount of flavor and spice. The meal was hot and really tasty. I’ll be back for more!
Good food good service never had an issue here
Everything ordered was delicious, fast and had a nice portion. The egg rolls were huge and fresh and the spring rolls tasted great as well. The prices are low for the quality and portion size, big win! I recently moved to the area and started trying all the local chinese places and so far this one is flat out the best in the area and I will be ordering from here again.
Driving through and was in the mood for Chinese. Stopped here and it was some of the best Chinese my husband and I have ever had! I’m a big crab Rangoon person and they were delicious. I had the beef lo mien and my husband had the orange chicken/ rice. Both were spectacular and will remember this place if we are ever back in the area!
Service was good, price was fair. The food was great. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Great food at a great price and the portions are a nice size as well. Definitely our go-to for Chinese food in the area. The workers are always great as well. Take out orders are always quick and hot when we get them back home.
THE BEST CHINESE FOOD in St. Louis is served here! The food takes about 10-15 minutes to make once they take your order which is 15-20 minutes faster than some others we’ve visited. That being said, their combo plates are awesome! I also recommend their spring rolls (light and fluffy) and their almond cookies are 3 for 1.00! And taste great! This restaurant is very reasonably priced in spite of inflation. There were three of us who ordered from there and the cost with combo plate, 1 set of 3 cookies, an order of spring rolls (and egg roll that comes with combo plate) was around 13-14 with tax each. If you skip the spring rolls, it would be around 11. Or 10 if only the combo plate. I personally think this restaurant is a diamond that other Chinese food foodies have yet to discover. But I personally will stay a loyal customer because the food is just devine! I ordered beef broccoli. If you like these two foods, I suggest trying it at this restaurant! There is a sauce that permeates the rice even past when the main food is gone. Food stays moist and hot to the end! Not spicy at all. Also, their menu puts a hot pepper emoji next to any spicy foods on their menu so no awful surprises for your tongue and taste buds when your order is served. We did take out and even after driving home and unpacking groceries, this food was still hot (temp)! This restaurant is just so on point!
I've tried over dozen other places within a 5-mile radius. No one competes in quality, quantity and price. Paul always answers the phone, you wouldn't believe it, but he is a super funny, smart dude. That is once you get to know him. He's one of the tallest Chinese guys I've ever known at over 6 feet. Tell him Russ sent you. Ask him about anything custom, and they will adjust things to make it your way. It is not typical that up front in Chinese culture to automatically be super friendly. He's all business until you get to know him. Plus, they are super fast and efficient and never messed up on our complicated orders in the last decade; otherwise, I'd bust his balls when I came in the next time. And I've ordered 50 to 100 worth of food, and the response for pickup is almost always 10 or 15 minutes. Everything is so fresh and, frankly, the best I've had anywhere in a long time unless you want to go to Chinatown up to Olive, and even they would compete very well there. It's a family-owned business. They've been here for over a decade, with Mom and Dad working the back, they speak very little English, and Paul communicates. You can't go wrong with anything there.
