"I just ate from here for the first time last night. It was delicious. I had the small House Lo Mein. Pricing was very affordable for the amount of food and quality. When I was there there were no dine-in options available. I do recommend this quick service establishment."

"Make sure you have them repeat your order and ring you up correctly... Food is hot and fast. Good quality. Egg Foo Young is the best menu item. Crab ragoon leaves much to be desired."

"Hands down the best Chinese food. The best shrimp and broccoli in the city. My kids love the hot wings. No matter how many cars you see outside, it doesn't take them long at all."

"In my opinion, the best chinese food in the area. Prices and portions are good. Only drawback, and there's not too much they can really do, is the amount of homeless/beggars in and out of their restaurant. In the 15 minutes I was waiting for my food, I got approached by 3 different people begging for money and trying to get me to let them use my phone. Again the food is great, but get it delivered or call ahead so it is ready for pickup."

"They place is still in pandemic mode no inside dining just take away orders. They are comparably priced. The food is good but the portion size is smaller than for what you are paying."

"The inside of the place is super sketchy super dirty they could definitely clean the doors and walls and take that Covid tarp down but the food is just too good for us to stay away! They definitely are best Chinese food takeout I have found in Mobile!"
