We went Tonight (Christmas Eve) we arrived at 5:40pm. We had a reservation at 6pm for 9 people. Great the table was ready. When the rest of the party came. We waited 15 min for someone to come over and take their drink order. There maybe 6 other parties there. Another 20 minutes pass to take our order. 45 minutes we received our food. When asked if the food was coming she said we have a lot of to go orders. Umm we are sitting here arghh. The food came out in shifts. 5 and 10 min intervals. Now the food was good. Service not so much. I guess we head towards Clairmont next time.

The food is delicious. The staff was so welcoming and fast. The servings are plentiful. The only downside is the limited parking

So, ot took an hour and a half to begin to get the food, and no refills of anything in-between. Our waitress forgot some of the drinks ordered. We had to ask at the counter. Food was OK. It all was very bland. Half the food came, then a few more, then at the almost the 1 3/4 hour mark, the last one came. We will not be back.

TERRIBLE FOOD. These other people leaving positive reviews must not have the slightest clue what decent Chinese food is or someone bribed them to leave 5 stars. I eat Chinese/Lao/Thai/Cambodian/Vietnamese food pretty much even day and can cook many dishes myself. So for me, this place was a hugh disappointment. This was actually the second time I've been here. First time was pretty bad also, but I figured I would give it another shot. Trick me twice, shame on me, right? Not completely my fault as it was my gfs choice. So this time I had the coupon and tried a bunch of things. From watery egg drop soup to the brown but bland fried rice, to the dirty/stained silverware and dishes. Legitimately the rice or soup had no flavor what so ever. Other than being slightly brown color, there was no indication that it was actually a "fried" rice dish. Everything was pretty bad. The Sze Chuan Beef was actually squishy. I'm guessing they marinated it baking soda WAY too long. This is common practice at cheap Chinese places. The Kung Pao chicken had big chunks of dry chicken breast (1"+chunks) that tasted like it was cooked separately from the rest of the dish. Weird when the sauce and vegetables are hot but the chicken in the dish itself is barely warm. I think the two dishes actually had the same sauce, if not it was very close. Egg rolls were decent. Typical vegetable filled Chinese ones except much larger. Fried shrimp looked huge but were more that 80% (or more. Think cheap orange chicken) batter. Skewered meat was OK (I think it was pork) but did taste kind of old and way too sweet (everything we ordered was quite sweet). Not sure why they bring out the little grill thing for you to cook them on when they are already fully cooked. Looked kind of cool at least. All and all this place sucks. Food quality is the same as $0.99 take out. I should have known when it's 5pm and there is only one other table with people at it. The service was actually pretty good though. I guess when the place is empty it should be hahah. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.
