Studied the recommendation for Chinese food in the area and this is the one that sounded best. It was absolutely delicious. Employees were friendly and answered our questions with patience. I had the crab rangoons and the general chicken. Hubby had the special house fried rice and shrimp egg rolls. Our only negative is that we prefer actual fried rice with soy sauce and lots of seasonings. They use the yellow rice and it is okay just not our preference. Small and quaint but enough seating. Highly recommend. Generous portions . We brought home enough for a second meal. May have to come back just to try the seafood!

Best food in town period!!! This place puts so much love and flavor into every dish! I cannot eat Asian food anywhere else as it always falls waaaaay short of the bar this place sets. Tonight they went above and beyond and blessed us with some very satisfying soups! I cannot recommend this place enough!

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. I wish I knew of this place sooner. You get so much food for a low price and omg the food is so amazing. We will definitely be coming back to try more of the menu

Amazing service. I ordered incorrectly and they fixed it without me even asking! The Cajun seafood boils are better than other restaurants I've had and half the price. Edit: years later still the best asian pot I've seen

Great food and great prices. Portion sizes were huge. Service was good and our food was out pretty quick. Highly recommend the bourbon chicken! The flavor was out of this world. The spicy menu items are not all that spicy but still have loads of flavor.

When we eat Chinese, my wife always gets the General's chicken and she said theirs was the best she's had in a long time. Even the rice was better than we usually get. I tried the House Lo Mein and it was delicious. I don't normally care about portion size but it was definitely on the large side. Great flavors, good service.
