Had subpar reviews but it’s actually really good orange chicken. Nice fry and crunch on it, not soggy, and they have the lunch and dinner special with appetizer combo. Honestly amazing Chinese takeout.

Ol’ reliable. Compared with other places with similarly convenient hours and affordable prices, it’s the best I’ve found in the area. Solid food, reliable, and good people! Rice comes separately
