Probably the worst pork fried rice I’ve ever tried. Taste more like brown rice with pork and vegetables mixed in. Would not return this Chinese restaurant for takeout.

Not the place I want to eat anymore. I have been ordering there for a few weeks now. I wanted to try a new place. I order chicken broccoli with not so much sauce and they get it wrong most every time. It's like they really do not care about the customer's wants. It's the way they want to serve it and that's it. One of the attend is always loud and rude as if she has no training in speaking with people.
Beautiful Disaster
Honestly with the numbers of plates i have gotten they truly never disappoint. You gotta make sure u let them know how u perfer your food. I can say their was only one time i ever had a complain and that was with the chicken wings. But after that i learned to make sure to let them know how i like it after that. They also not as pricey as other chinese restaurants in the area. I also have a sensitive stomach and their food has yet to give me a stomachache.
