This place is just up the road from my sister's new place, and after a long day moving her in, we just needed some quick dinner. Reviews online for this place range from great to awful, so we knew we were taking our chances.
She had the cashew chicken combination, which was one of those rectangular takeout dishes evenly split between the fried rice and the entree. She's picky about too many vegetables, and this was a lot of celery and zucchini, plus a scattering of carrots and baby corn. A decent amount of chicken, which you can't always rely on. She said it was fine, nothing special. "A Monday night chicken cashew, not a Saturday night chicken cashew."
I got mu shu pork and for the most part was pleasantly surprised. Excellent flavor, the traditional plum sauce, and a substantial portion that will feed me for at least one more meal.
The one thing I found odd and off-putting was that they served it with flour tortillas, rather than the mu shu pancakes I expected. It worked, I guess, but it didn't make me happy. -

My go to for Chinese food, two years and counting.
The food here is fresh and delicious! We typically pickup and it's ready in 30 minutes. The one time we ordered delivery, it was 75 minutes before our food made it to the house. That's the only negative experience.
The crab rangoons for $4.75 are the best I have. It comes with 8 good sized rangoons, completely full with cream cheese and crab. They include a cup of yummy sweet and sour sauce.
We always get the special combination for just under $8. It comes with meat, white or fried rice, spring roll and fortune cookie. The meal always lasts me two days. I've had the General Tso and the Sesame, both are awesome. The general tso isn't spicy at all, if you're into that.
This may sound gross but in the past, I've had Chinese chicken that is often grey in color. You'll never find that here. It is always good quality chicken.
Taste, portion, service... you can't go wrong here minus the delivery time. -

I happen to find myself with a respiratory infection and dog sitting in Mount Washington. I stumbled upon this restaurant because it's very close and they deliver. I have to say all the food was excellent. I'm pretty sure they even stuff their own crab Rangoon. The only thing, one of the soups and the entrée lids were not closed all the way. So it made a little bit of a mess.

Don't eat here, especially if you are some variation of vegetarian and/or are allergic to meat products.
I asked kindly over the phone to have fried tofu and broccoli prepared- no sauce. Simple enough right? Apparently not. The guy who answered didn't know what to ring on so he asked the kitchen staff who told him homestyle bean curd and vegetables. I said, it isn't really the same thing because that comes with sauce and other vegetables other than broccoli. So, he confirmed that he understood broccoli and tofu only.
I go pick up my order and the guy that answered the phone was at the counter. I paid, tipped and he gave me my meal and said "enjoy. I wouldn't, but I'm sure you will"...
I leave and then when I get home I realize there is SAUCE on the food when I clearly stated that I wanted none. I go back and the counter guy and kitchen staff member/owner make exchanges. The owner tells me to take the original mess up home and I said I cannot because I am allergic to chicken and know they use chicken broth and bones in their "vegetarian" sauces.
They offer to remake it, but the owner then says next time, order steamed tofu and broccoli from the Weight Watchers menu because the sauce comes on the side- just specify that you want the tofu fried. That to me seems counterintuitive and it should be simple enough to convey that a customer only wants fried tofu and broccoli, but duly noted.
I get my new food, take it home, and while there is no sauce, there are a bunch of other vegetables and a few pieces of broccoli, which is NOT what I ordered.
don't waste your time/money. -

This place must have changed ownership or something because all the glowing reviews about it are way off the mark. To start with, the food is mediocre at best. Drinks are by the can and the prices are higher that you'd expect. I was expecting good cheap Chinese food and what I got wasn't even close.
