"In short: An old-school (i.e., Americanized) dependable Chinese place that has probably cranked out thousands of plates over the years. Your grandparents would have loved it, and if you're in the mood, you will, too. Super friendly service and reasonable prices. In long: It's easy to see why they've held such a great rating, even if they're not doing much on the menu that nods to real traditional food. They're in a big supermarket parking lot with plenty of free parking, and there are plenty of tables inside. The decor runs to that red and gold pseudo-Chinese stuff from back in the day. It's friendly and homey, especially if you went to family dinners at the local Chinese place when Chinese food was still a hot new trend. You get water and hot fresh tea very quickly, along with a two-sided laminated menu printed in color. You get white paper napkins and forks before you even sit down. The tea was pretty damn good, and they have many other flavors on the menu. We checked out a little of everything from the old favorites. There are hot pots and a couple dim sum items, but mostly it's the greatest hits of Chinese food in America for the last 50+ years. BBQ pork This is the same dish at a lot of places you go, right down to the mustard/ketchup combo and dish of sesame seeds. They do offer nice thick slices, and I happen to like the stuff that all comes from the same distributor. One of these days I'll finally remember to ask for all mustard, no ketchup. Hot sour soup My late mom loved this so much that both us kids have a lifelong love of it. This one is not amazing; it's a lot of thickener and not much seasoning, even with a red pepper next to it on the menu. We resuscitated it a bit with chili paste from the condiment jar on the table. Beef with chili beans Beautifully cooked--tender, decent flavor. Sauce was kinda thick but the vegetables were crunchy still. Ate every bite. Emptied the chili paste jar here and got more. Green beans So good. Fresh, flavorful, cooked just to done without going over. Decent amount of garlic. Juicy dumplings Not house made. Kinda like the frozen soup dumplings from Trader Joe's--which are pretty good for late-night snacks, by the way. Good with chili sauce. We were out the door for 5 plates and a generous tip for about $70. It's a little bit of a haul for us, or we'd come back more often. The people are so nice, and sometimes these childhood-memory dishes are a treat, especially when they're done this well."
