Take out was terrible. Undercooked slimy chicken, cumin lamb was full of fat. Stir fry noodles were underdone. Would not recommend. Go to mccb instead

I am going to review this place from an authentic Chinese food standpoint. I think the quality of the food has gone down the hill a lot in recent years. I ordered a fish, it is stinky! I have to throw it out eventually. The rice cake is not the one shown on the menu. The only good dish I had was actually yhe dessert... I will probably stop coming to this place in the future.

Are you the owner?
