Our go-to Chinese take-out that's close to home. Be very specific when ordering on the phone. Once we ordered kimchi and got sweet tea we picked up. We just laughed it off, it's not a big deal. But their kimchi is fantastic!
So the outside is in need of repair and the other concern is the health rating of 94.5. We ordered soup and an egg roll and were pleasantly surprised as to how good the soup was! Getting in and out of the restaurant is difficult due to its location and traffic. They are only doing take out orders at this time. The egg roll was not greasy/ was pretty standard fare but the soup was hot and tasty. Will we go back? Not sure but the reason is the location- it is a distance for us to get there.
great food! its easy to call in ahead and they had a drive-thru pickup. Their wings and sesame chicken are great!
This place reminds me of a hole-in-the-wall type place you find in a gritty part of big city. It's just in a gritty part of a small town. Why does there have to be so much BAD Asian food in this world, and then this little place kills it! I see why it has so many good reviews. Don't expect a nice dining area and white table cloths, but it's clean. The bathrooms were clean. As soon as they caught up on their orders & the drive-through, someone was cleaning the dining area. Also the service was friendly & attentive. We had Kung Pao Chicken, Garlic Chicken & a side of kimchi. I preferred the garlic chicken as it had a nice garlic flavor and was not all swimming in gloppy sweet sauce. Kung Pao was good, just not my favorite. The kimchi was a nice addition and not too strong. Egg drop soup hit the spot on a cold day & was even topped with scallions like you might see at a nicer restaurant. Next time i am in the area, if I can't eat there, I will get take out for later!
One of the more flavorful Chinese food restaurants in Burlington/Graham area and not too expensive!
