"One of the better spots in the area for Chinese. Most of the dishes are fairly americanized, but you probably aren't going to find much else in this area in terms of authenticity, and I give this place credit for consistent quality, particularly their fried rice. The lunch specials are pretty reasonably priced for the portion size, which is getting harder to find these days. Some of the larger entrees are probably better but not as wallet-friendly. Service and the somewhat depressing interior though are what lowers the rating for me. Seat cushions are ripped and not stable, tables and dishes aren't clean, and is tough to get ahold of servers. I'll probably come back every once in a while since it's close to my work, but that might be more due to the relative lack of asian restaurants in the area."

The food is great and authenticity Chinese. The take out in the weekends though does take a long time

My favorite Chinese restaurant! I've been going here since I was a kid in the 90s. I live in LA now and always make sure to go back when I'm in town. The Cold Sesame Noodles are my absolute favorite of all time.
Silvio
We were pleasantly surprised by this place. Looking in from the outside it seems tired and worn but if you look past the appearance the food is really delicious. We enjoyed their fried wontons, shrimp and veggies and lomain. View menu

We called in a large order and were told to be there in 45 minutes. Once we arrived, we had to wait a full HOUR AND 15 MINUTES for our meal. No one seemed to care how long we were waiting. In other places, we would at least be served some tea while waiting. The meal itself was incredibly disappointing bland, tasteless. We will not be back.
Joyce
The wonton soup was INEDIBLE. I called the restaurant last night (2/10/22) to tell them. The mai fun was okay. I will never go here again. The meat inside of the wontons tasted like roadkill The reviews praising this eatery are from 8 years ago. Maybe 8 years ago it was better. this place STUNK (PS) I live in Bernards Twp, not New Providence
Claire
Honestly their food is just great. Terrific classic Szechuan food. We got the lo mein, fried rice, hot and sour soup, General Tso's and egg drop soup with wontons. Everything was yummy and hit the spot except the egg group soup, which was too cornstarchy and just not that flavorful. This place is a staple and definitely a go to if you are craving old school Chinese food. View menu

Poor service, food was barely fair but the price led me to the review, I picked up the order and the order somewhat demanded a tip along with a fee for the Credit Card, I did bypass the tip option but then after checking out there was a FEE- a fee for what, I was just charged a credit card fee of 3% that was fine but a fee for processing... sorry that's not except able. I will not use this service again. And to justify my actions, I did use this restaurant in the past and was not happy with every aspect of it's business. Save yourself a trip.

While the food is just mediocre, Americanized Chinese food, the service is horrific. I have h to write this review, but the service is consistently (not a one time event) bad. We typically get take out. They tell me a half hour and o have at times had to wait 45 min or an hour. If they would be honest in their time estimation, they would be doing customers a favor. Don 't lie!! They also have on a couple occasions forget items, so be sure to check your order before you leave the restaurant. Too bad this town only has a couple Chinese restaurants. That 's what 's keeping them in business.
