We only ordered take out, but the place was clean and neat. But the food?! Oh my GOD! The flavor in everything was Crazy Good! This is Definitely the spot! And don’t forget the Crab Rangoon to finish off your meal. It is worth it. We ordered for four and everyone agreed.

This place is wonderful. Staff are incredible and every time I've been there, my glass has never been empty. The sesame chicken is amazing, as well as the egg drop soup. I haven't been disappointed and it is one of my regular places to eat.

I haven't been here for over 12 years, but we decided to stop in yesterday, and then, I couldn't figure out why it had been so long. This place is amazing in terms of food quality! I don't think you'll find better for this price point. The chicken has substance to it and not just over-breaded and dried out like those other Asian places. There's plenty of space and seats, and the service was great too. This is not a nasty buffet, so prepare to order a fresh, delicious plate from an extensive menu!

Dropped in and got the lunch specials. They had a nice selection to choose from. Service was very good. The food arrived in a timely manner and was all the food was delicious. The price, quality, and flavors were excellent. This visit was my first time and will definitely be back again to try other dishes.

Every time I order here, whether that be take out or delivery, I am excited. Their food is phenomenal. They give the right amount of food to have some for later, which I love. I especially love their sesame chicken - sweet and savory. Plenty of sauce and flavor. I also like mixing the steamed rice I tend to get with the sauce to give it the same flavor, and it’s so good. Their service is wonderful too. I’ve heard many great things from friends and family, but my own experience really brings it together. I forgot my wallet in the store after picking up my to-go order, and upon realizing, I went right back. The gentleman who served me, looked at me and turned around immediately, grabbing my wallet and when I apologized he made a lighthearted joke along the lines of “When you’re hungry that happens,” and smiled. — The photo is chicken and broccoli with fried rice.

First time dining here. Beautiful place. Immaculate clean. Everyone was so welcoming. Everyone checks on you even if they are not your server. I had the Orange Chicken, so moist and big pieces. The rice was ok but the Egg Roll maybe the best I've ever had. My friend had the beef mushroom. He said it was good. The servings were plentiful. The tea was so good. They are constantly refilling your drink I love that! Egg drop n wonton soup so yummy. Definite MUST!

Just order here with UBER I had shrimp with lobster sauce. Ya'll that's the best I've had here in San Antonio. Everything thing was fresh. I will always order from them. Sorry for the half-eaten picture but at least I took one lol
