Inexpensive, great tasting, and great service!
Many places offer cheap prices but the food is just not good.
Here you don't have to worry about that! Its flavorful and consistent here. My favorite is fried rice, kung pao chicken, and orange chicken....Yuuuum! They keep the food on the steam tables fresh and if you ask for something that's is low, they make fresh on the fly. Also, there is a 10 cent up charge per item so if you mind use cash.

The five stars is for chicken wings only--BEST fried chicken wings ever! They are crispy golden with batter, with jalepeno, garlic, ginger, salt and so darn tasty.    I always but the "family portion" which is 16 pieces (I think it costs $6 plus tax or so, definitely under $7) versus 50 cents for one.  They are best really hot and they remain hot for a long time (and are tasty kind of cold).  Yum..finger licking good!

The Chinese food on the "hot steam" table is okay. You get brown rice as an option! I think the chicken wings (4 pieces) can be one of your sides if you get the combo plate.

The restaurant is hard to find because it's in the back of the shopping center.    Closes at 8pm.

Get those wings!!

We were craving chinese food at the office the other day and decided to yelp search what was around us. Came up with this place and drove over there to try it out.

Why are they the only business with a covered parking spot?
Walked in and there was no one eating in there. Bad omen? Maybe.
Ordered a 2 item combo, s&p chicken wings (4 pieces), orange chicken, and chow mein/fried rice. Came with a small drink for under $6. Not bad.
The orange chicken was average. I've had better. It had way too much sauce on it, and you can taste that it's been sitting there a while. The s&p chicken wings were so greasy, but that's why I love them.

About an hour after getting back to the office did I feel sick to my stomach. MSG overload!!!

Not worth the drive from work, and they don't give you a fortune cookie with your meal!!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What am I getting?

    Simply put: one heckuva Deal. We harness the magnificent purchasing might of the Yelp community to swing you massive markdowns at highly rated local businesses. Buying here and paying upfront allows us to negotiate the best price possible — which in turn saves you money.

  • How do I redeem my Deal?

    Once you've purchased a Deal, you'll be emailed a voucher. Print it out and present it to the business, or be eco-savvy and bring it up on your handy mobile device. Different Deals have specific requirements (RSVPs, appointments necessary, etc.), so be sure to read the special terms.

  • How long can I use my Deal?

    Unless a Deal's specific terms say something different, you'll have a year to redeem the Deal for the offer indicated (e.g. a $50 value for $25); but you can subsequently redeem it for the amount you paid (e.g. the $25). For more information, read the Yelp Deals General Terms.

  • How do I keep tabs on my Deal?

    How fun is buying something if it doesn't exist? Answer: naught. As such, we've created a page for your Deals. Keep track of Deals you purchased, access your redemption vouchers, and even see how much you've saved.

  • What's the Deal with tipping?

    Gratuity is typically not included in Deals. Businesses are working hard to bring you these discounted goods and services, so please tip them with the un-discounted value of your bill in mind.

  • What if I have a problem with the Deal?

    Our goal is to make sure that every Yelper is satisfied with their Deal(s). Having problems? Email .
