Fantastic portions & to go containers! Everything fresh, hot & tasty. I'm definitely a returning customer :) The Hot Crispy Chicken flavor is addicting! The Salt & Pepper Fish- hit the spot as well. Their House Chow Mein is always cooked well but could use more flavors. Feel like every time I've tried it, I've had to add soy sauce chili etc Thus 4 stars

Normally I love the Green Beans but they didn't taste the same as usual. The Fried Spring Rolls (4) were okay, I didn't realize they were made with the rice noodles inside which made it bland. The Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings (5) were also okay, could've been cooked a little longer for a crispier outside.

The lettuce wraps were great. Plenty of food and very tasty.
The garlic noodles was a big disappointment. There was nothing but pasta noodles and no protein. I feel like I got nothing but a handful of noodles for $17 definitely not worth it. The lettuce wraps are great, but I feel I was ripped off with the garlic noodles

I ordered the House Chow Mein, and it arrived extremely dry—with no sauce—and contained very little shrimp, beef, or chicken. I don't know what happened, because a while ago it was very good; now, it's horrible. I do not recommend it.
