★★★★☆ 4/5
The food was fresh and really good. They accommodated my gluten allergy which can be tricky at Chinese or Asian food places because of the soy sauce. They happily made my meal gluten free. The staff were really friendly. Parking can be tricky during the busy dinner hour on weekends. But they do have a parking lot.

One of the best kept secrets in SW Minneapolis. I go to this place with my Dad for lunch often because we both love Chinese. We have tried many places but always come back to this one. Whatever you order here, the food is delicious, the prices are great, the service quick and wonderful. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you are in the neighborhood and/or want to try something authentic and delicious.

A most civilized meal. I eat here once a week and have for years. The food is excellent but the atmosphere, if you just want a quiet lunch, is unmatched. The service is very fast and friendly.

I enjoyed the food, every time I order from here it's been consistent. Food comes in large portions. My only problem with the place is that the dinner menu is overpriced for what you get. The lunch special however is decently priced. My suggestion is to get their lunch special.

Nothing pretentious here. Just great staple offerings, very generous portions, clean and appealing decor-(albeit a bit dated--but hey, when it's not broken, dont fix it). The Mu Shu pork is particularly good and the Chicken in garlic sauce is a great comfort food. Highly recommend this tucked away gem.

First visit here. Staff very friendly. The ambiance was a little strange as it was very quiet...like being in a library. The food was exactly what one would expect. Good...but not great. A little on the expensive side compared to similar establishments.

Great,cheap Chinese food! The lunch special is the best deal out there and in the area. $8-9 for main dish, fried rice, and soup! Little mom and pa restaurant run very well. I love getting them for take out. Check it out!

Was looking for a new place to eat. So glad I tried it. The food was so good. The beef sticks are tender and seasoned to perfection. I also had crab rangoon and Szechuan shrimp with fried rice. Everything was amazing. And the place is very clean. I will definitely go back for more.

This is THE place for Chinese. Had a craving, and they blew me away!! MY order was ready on time, hot when I picked it up & got back home, the food was super flavorful, even the fortune cookie was delicious (not cardboard like some). I am so happy to finally have found my go to place!!
