Been getting Chinese food from here for years and refuse to go anywhere else. Hole in the wall type place that focuses solely on the food. They've never messed up once and I always get take out. 10/10!

Literally one of the best Chinese places in Utah... insanely underrated, a hole in the wall place but they know what they are doing.

AMAZING food. Was told by a neighbor that I needed to check them out since our favorite place closed a couple years ago. I can't believe I waited so long to try them! They're going to be my new favorite and I can't wait to order again soon and try even more dishes. Orange chicken, sweet and sour chicken and walnut shrimp was SUPERB. I GOTTA TRY EVERYTHING NOW LOL

Best Chinese food ever! A favorite in our household. We love the sweet and sour pork or chicken and the house fried rice is scrumptious! Yummiest potstickers too! Love this place!

No dine-in here these days but the carry-out lunch hit the spot. We ordered the Moo goo Gai Pan in a spicy brown sauce lunch (comes with rice and eggroll) and a side of veggie fried rice which turned out to be HUGE. The vegetables were hot and fresh - btw, why is broccoli always hotter than every other veggie? Anyway, there are no tables or benches outside the restaurant so we drove a ways to find a place to sit. The two of us were stuffed afterwards and there were still leftovers. So So Good.
