    I’m in town for work. I am from New York and we are very particular about our Chinese food. As I live in Texas now and travel for work I often eat out. Now I always complain whenever I eat Chinese from anywhere else, but New York, it’s never good enough. But this place is amazing. I’m eating Kung pow chicken right now and they use real chicken. I’ve been in town for 20 days and have eaten here maybe 10 out of the 20 food is amazing. Try it.

    You know besides the updating... For our luxury dining enjoyment, which is lacking you can tell, this is a really decent place. Compared to most I'm going to say "Oriental" food establishments in the area this one is very consistent I have been here a few times with coworkers. Again if you have never had shrimp and lobster sauce which is not on their menu, they will make it for you this is a delightfully light and flavorful dinner not spicy; typically a Hunan style type of dish. The other image is Szechuan chicken and it's a little spicy but if you prefer it very spicy you might want to ask for a side of chili sauce. The service is nice and the attentiveness to your needs is decent. I say this because it's relatively consistent very consistent in fact for the few times I've been here. Feel free to phone ahead or dine in.

    this is a great mom and pop local chinese restaurant. they have prices you can’t beat. we got the pork dumplings, cheese wontons, and the chicken hibachi meal. it came to about $30! super filling meal and perfect for two. it feels like your typical chinese restaurant but can quickly make a meal for to go. we definitely recommend!

    I love this place. It's delicious and always fresh. I get to go orders a couple times a week.

    The food is not the best, but is good. There is a female that make you feel welcome. The only downside is that when you enter for the first time it looks very unorganized store. there is two air fans that needs some cleaning. I had a shrimp noodle soup, good and very hot.(not spicy hot), I mean very hot.

    Good food for the price. This is more of a working lunch place. On a side note, it could use a thorough cleaning, the score was 95 but it could use a good scrubbing, windows, tables, chairs, floors and ceiling vents.

    This is Mei Phun Chicken and Wonton Soup. Both were good and flavorful at a good price.

    Some of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had, I live in Huntsville AL and I would drive to Muscle Shoals just to eat here. The staff is extremely nice and a very welcoming atmosphere overall!
