Everything you order from this place is fast, hot, and delicious. Typical to-go Chinese food—but really great. We stop by for pickup often when we are in town.
I'm from TN and ive been to a lot of chinese places up here from Hendersonville to hickory and this is by far the best ive ate since my lol place on TN. Always fresh and hot food and always so good!!!!! There honey chicken omg.....omg....if u have not had it its the best here!
Their fried rice is lacking the quality, and smoky flavor makes up for it. Would recommend .
This use to be my go to for Chinese. Haven't been a long time but had a cravin'. The last time I went (years ago) I wasn't happy with my food. I'm glad I gave it another try. I'm not a big meat eater but the veggies were fresh and cooked perfectly as well as the rice. I had 2 spring rolls and they were wonderful. The employees were very nice and helpful. Awesomely priced combo meal especially since there is plenty for the next day. Will definitely be going back.
I came in quick to get some sweet and sour shrimp during a break. Fella behind window went over some of the variants of the dishes and we ultimately settled on a combo. I paid being told15 minutes. Came back on 10, food ready and hoit. Settled in car, dipped into sass it was good, but had a heavy pork taste to breading more than likely from the frier. All in all the sass, egg roll, rice, and drink were definitely worth another trip.
I’ve gone to this place for years. The food is always great and consistent. Portions are the best bang for your buck. 100% the best Chinese food that’s not a buffet. Best chicken on a stick in Catawba county!!
Great and best Chinese food around here, I always get General Tso's chicken, and Lo Mein, especially the crab ragoon it is so delicious and unforgettable. People work here also super nice, friendly. I would recommend this place.
I work an exit away, and wanted to try something different for lunch. Looked this place up, called in my order, and by time I got there it was ready (approx 10/15min). I got the egg roll and the fried chicken wings with pork fried rice . I'm from NY, and have been in NC for about ten years now..they make the wings exactly like they do in NY- flavor and all!! Why didn't I find this place sooner!? My lunch meal cost 10.. a little high IMO, but I'll be eating here again.
